The ketogenic diet is high in fat and low in carbohydrate. Fruit, vegetables, dairy products and meat, which are sources of nutrients are all very limited in intake, thus putting an individual at risk for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
Supplementation is extremely important to individuals on a restricted diet, particularly those who need to limit the amount of carbohydrate.
