Description

Mariangela Rondanelli and co-authors pool trials on the ketogenic diet and inflammation in adults with excess weight, in a review published in twenty twenty-four. The diet is very low in carbohydrates and high in fat. It has been proposed as a way to calm the body's inflammatory response, which runs high in obesity.

The team searched four databases for trials that tracked markers such as C-reactive protein and interleukin-6. Seven trials with just over two hundred people fit, lasting from eight weeks to two years. Five went into the pooled math. C-reactive protein fell by a clear margin after the diet. Interleukin-6 fell slightly, but that change could be chance. The authors say the diet may help tune inflammation in this group.
