Summary

This study follows 100 children under 18 who are already on a ketogenic diet for conditions like drug-resistant epilepsy, autism, chronic migraine, or brain tumors. Researchers want to see if the diet supports healthy growth, improves symptoms, and boosts quality of life. The diet is tailored to each child's needs, and the study simply observes what happens during normal care.
