First seen Feb 01, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 17 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding a ketogenic (keto) diet to a personalized brain stimulation treatment can better reduce depression symptoms in adults whose depression hasn't improved with standard treatments. Sixty participants will follow either a keto diet or a standard healthy diet for several weeks, then receive a course of brain stimulation while continuing their diet. Researchers will measure changes in mood, blood ketone levels, and brain scans to see if the combination is safe, tolerable, and more effective.
