improve the clinical status in
brain injury, especially by reducing the incidence of long - term consequences, such as epilepsy.79 Positive effects of a ketogenic diet have also been reported in reducing the cortical contusion volume in an age - dependent manner in an animal model of cortical injury, which is
related to the maturation - dependent variability in
brain ketone metabolism.92 These findings were also supported by the demonstration that a ketogenic diet reduced post-traumatic cognitive and motor
function impairment, at least in a rat model.93
