Avoiding side effects on a ketogenic diet | Dominic D'Agostino

A ketogenic diet is higher in fat and contains fewer carbohydrates than the typical American diet, and implementing it is challenging. If you rapidly start a ketogenic diet, you are more likely to experience side effects including disrupted sleep and lipid abnormalities. Dr. D'Agostino asserts that transitioning to the diet by titrating carbohydrates down gradually improves adherence and tolerance. He further describes how he incorporates fiber and micronutrients into his diet. In this clip, Dr. Dominic D'Agostino outlines strategies to initiate a ketogenic diet and mitigate its side effects.
