What is Ketosis? Frigolet, M.-E., Ramos Barragán, V.-E., & Tamez González, M. (2011). Low-carbohydrate diets: a matter of love or hate. Annals of nutrition & metabolism, 58(4), 320–334. doi:10.1159/000331994
Ketogenic diet =
High fat, low carbohydrate, calorie restricted
Benefits of ketosis?
Stops difficult to control seizures
Modified Atkins diet might work for some and be followed more
Other benefits of a diet that puts you in state of ketosis?
Lose weighthelp with type 2 diabetesMay help with other issues like recovery from concussions, Alzheimer’s, Parkinsons
Is this popular or scholarly?
Bielohuby, M., Matsuura, M., Herbach, N., Kienzle, E., Slawik, M., Hoeflich, A., & Bidlingmaier, M. (2010). Short-Term Exposure to Low-Carbohydrate, High-Fat Diets Induces Low Bone Mineral Density and Reduces Bone Formation in Rats. Journal of Bone & Mineral Research, 25(2), 275–284.
Ketosis
disadvantages: Constipation, kidney stones, decreased bone density, slows growth in children, increases cholesterol and lipids, causes micronutrient deficiencies, may impact energy and memory (temporary?)
Many of these low carb diets put you in a form of ketosis

Complicated questions require research.
Google is an answer machine…
type in your topic and get 1,000s of results.
…library databases aren’tYou have to know how to get the information you need out of library database.
Library databases have:
Scholarly sourcesWays to sort, save and retrieve documentsSpecific information on a topic
Remaining questions
Complex carbohydrates – a little or a lot?
Fat – in any form, just some forms, very little?
Fruit, vegetables, meat (protein sources)?
Short term v. long term?

If this were a tweet, what are the hashtags you’d use?

UO libraries: your tuition dollars
What about google scholar?
• Might work for your topic and work well. I use it sometimes, but find it difficult to sort through the results of a broad search.
• Your mileage may vary. Unless you are already an expert, GS won’t be any better than a database.
FindText to get to library holdings
