The information on this site is for informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for advice from a physician or other healthcare professionals. You should ALWAYS CONSULT A HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL before starting any type of dietary therapy. Our aim is to aid and support parents through our own experiences with our children in managing dietary treatments, as well as choosing the use of therapeutic epilepsy diets over other treatment options. We also hope to provide you with the latest information regarding what is going on in the "ketogenic world."
You MUST ALWAYS seek medical advice if you are uncertain of anything regarding your treatment options, and the Ketogenic Diet MUST BE ADMINISTERED BY A QUALIFIED and TRAINED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, as each child requires a diet tailor-made for them. It is NOT advisable for any parent to attempt the diet without it being medically supervised, as you may put your child at risk of serious injury if you attempt dietary therapy without appropriate medical supervision. The Carson Harris Foundation cannot be held responsible if parents do not heed this warning.
