Modified Ketogenic Diet

the patients will receive KD after nutritional counseling, patients will instructed to start by limiting carbohydrate intake to just 20 g/day for 4 weeks in order to establish ketosis. Then, patients increase their carbohydrate intake by 5 g each week until they reach their individual maximum (approximately 40 g) to maintain stable ketosis. All carbohydrates relevant for elevating blood glucose are limited to 40-50 g/ day. In addition, the glycemic index and glycemic load of carbohydrates have to be below 50 and 60, respectively. This ketogenic diet is equivalent to a traditional ketogenic diet, but with a liberalized macronutrient composition of 70-80% fats, 15-20% proteins and 5-10% carbohydrates (compared to a traditional ketogenic diet with 90% fat, 6% proteins and 4% carbohydrates)+ exercise program

OTHER

exercise program

the patients will receive exercise program in the form of aerobic training (10-30 minutes at moderate intensity) and resistance training (1-3 sets of 8-15 repetition maximum (RM)
