Can a High-Fat diet quiet eating disorder voices? new study investigates

NCT ID NCT06000774

Summary

This study is testing if a strict high-fat, low-carb (ketogenic) diet can help control the persistent, distressing thoughts and behaviors in people with anorexia or bulimia. It will involve about 55 adults who are either at a normal weight but still struggling, are underweight, or have bulimia. Researchers will provide the diet for 14 weeks to see if it reduces symptoms like the drive to restrict food, binge, purge, or intense body dissatisfaction.
