The goal of the study is to implement a team-based "train the trainer" group approach by providing participants education and the opportunity for self-implementing a medical ketogenic diet study for 4 weeks.
The overarching goal of the program is for those participating to be able to initiate the diet in clinical and research settings with greater competence.
The study has two parts:
There will be two parts to assist with a train the trainer approach: 1) an educational component (4-hour mastery class, 2 Q&A 1.5 hours) with related materials and 2) an open label cohort study providing the opportunity for participants to attempt the medical ketogenic diet within a group for 4 weeks with private and group counseling.
By participating in a 4-week self-implemented diet within a group setting our hope is to increase competence in implementing the diet and monitoring its success with KetoMojo. Secondarily, those who participate in the cohort study may have improvements in their own physical health and mental well-being.
After the 4 hour mastery class is completed an additional two weeks is given prior to the group keto diet starting to ensure all dietician meetings are completed.
