And could also address the unwanted side effects of medication.
Bodybuilders take on a very specialised type of diet to produce extra muscle mass and strength without ballooning in weight, and now researchers in Australia have found an interesting alternative use for this very specific eating regime: treating people who have been diagnosed with schizophrenia.
As well as being favoured by bodybuilders, the so-called ketogenic diet – essentially, one that’s high on fat but low on carbohydrates – has been used for decades to manage epilepsy in children. It basically forces the body to burn ketone bodies (the products of fat breakdown) for fuel, rather than carbohydrates.

Low-carb beats low-fat in a meta-analysis of 17 clinical trials.
Obesity is a growing problem across the developed world. In the United States, it affects more than 36% of adults and, in the United Kingdom, it has been referred to as the “biggest threat to women’s health”.

In a new study published in the Journal PLOS ONE, a meta-analysis of seventeen randomized clinical trials provides insight into the relative benefits of low-carbohydrate and low-fat diets in terms of weight lost, cholesterol and the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) events. The seventeen clinical trials used for meta-analysis included a total of 1,797 patients over the age of eighteen who all lacked co-morbidities other than dyslipidemia. Each trial randomly assigned patients to treatment groups and included at least eight weeks of follow-up.
For the purposes of the meta-analysis, low-carbohydrate diets had a daily intake of no more than 120 grams of carbohydrates whereas less than 30% of daily caloric intake in the low-fat diets was derived from fat.
