About
I am a neurology resident (Assistenzärztin) passionate about the science behind dietary and lifestyle interventions in chronic neurological diseases. This project is my curated map of current evidence, mechanisms, and unanswered questions in ketogenic neurology.
The aim is to make the research readable for clinicians, researchers, patients, and curious families while preserving the boundary between education and individual medical care.
I collate current scientific evidence but do not provide individual medical advice.

Current evidence
Alzheimer's
Research asks whether ketones can support brain energy metabolism in cognitive decline.
Read pageMS
Diet research in MS is active, but ketogenic diets are not disease-modifying therapy.
Read pageParkinson's
A growing research area focused on energy metabolism and non-motor symptoms.
Read pageBrain cancers
Metabolic therapy research is active, especially in glioblastoma, but survival benefit is unproven.
Read pageStroke
Ketone biology is promising in models, but stroke care is emergency medicine first.
