MUDr. Martina Šiklová, Ph.D., presented research findings on the ketogenic diet and its effects on metabolism at the SKVIMP Congress. Even with maintained caloric intake, this diet can improve insulin sensitivity and reduce liver fat. An innovative approach, the cyclical ketogenic diet, was also highlighted as a promising strategy for patients with metabolic liver disease.
