Summary

This study looks at whether a ketogenic diet (high-fat, low-carb) is practical and safe for people with early-stage Alzheimer's disease over one year. The diet may provide an alternative energy source for the brain and reduce inflammation. Researchers will track diet adherence, brain metabolism, thinking skills, and quality of life in 70 participants.
