The Nutrition Network’s Textbook, Ketogenic: The Science of Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction in Human Health, in Partnership with Elsevier International, presents the most up-to-date and evidence-based science and research available in the field of Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction (TCR), with the purpose of training medical and allied healthcare professionals on the effective therapeutic use of low-carbohydrate and ketogenic nutrition in clinical practice. This Textbook explores the appropriate, safe, and effective use of TCR to improve patient outcomes in a broad range of chronic metabolic conditions and aims to promote health. 

Focused on lifestyle management, health support, and the treatment of diseases rooted in poor nutrition, Ketogenic: The Science of Therapeutic Carbohydrate Restriction in Human Health explores the role of food and lifestyle modification as medicine and is a valuable resource for nutritionists, dietitians, and medical professionals who provide diet-related counseling, as well as those researching or studying related areas.

TCR and Keto Nutrition have long been considered a new science. After years of tireless work and collaboration, the pioneering TCR global community has changed this perception, by clarifying and demonstrating the diet’s potential to change the face of health and the nature of healthcare, worldwide. 

As the world leader in online TCR trainings, NN has trained thousands of medical and allied healthcare practitioners from around the world. NN trainings have focused on how to integrate TCR into practitioners existing practices, but the leaders of NN felt that more had to be done, specifically in the field of integrating TCR into medical education.
