A diet that contains limited amounts of CARBOHYDRATES. This is in distinction to a regular DIET.

1.	Weight Loss (Weight Reduction) 04/01/2003 - "Based on these data, a very low carbohydrate diet is more effective than a low fat diet for short-term weight loss and, over 6 months, is not associated with deleterious effects on important cardiovascular risk factors in healthy women." 07/01/2002 - "There were no serious adverse effects, but the possibility of adverse effects in the 10 subjects who did not adhere to the program cannot be eliminated.A very low carbohydrate diet program led to sustained weight loss during a 6-month period. " 11/15/2004 - "The high-protein, low-carbohydrate diet is effective for weight loss over the short term, but its long-term benefits remain unproved. " 01/01/1981 - "The weight loss observed during the carbohydrate-restricted diets was significantly greater than during the high-carbohydrate diet. " 01/01/2003 - "Studies examining the efficacy of using low-carbohydrate diets for long-term weight loss are few in number, however few positive benefits exist to promote the adoption of carbohydrate restriction as a realistic, and more importantly, safe means of dieting. "
2.	Epilepsy (Aura) 11/01/2008 - "The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet with proven efficacy in the treatment of intractable epilepsies. " 02/01/2014 - "The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet with an established efficacy for treating medically refractory epilepsy in children. " 01/01/2012 - "The ketogenic diet (KD) is a high-fat, low-protein, low-carbohydrate diet which is effective in the treatment of medically refractory epilepsy. " 09/01/2009 - "In parallel, a ketogenic (high-fat, low-carbohydrate) diet is a metabolic therapy that influences neuronal activity significantly, and ketogenic diets have been used successfully to treat medically-refractory epilepsy, particularly in children, for decades. " 01/01/2015 - "The aim of this meta-analysis was to summarize the findings of relevant published studies in order to identify the efficacy of and compliance with a ketogenic diet and its main subtypes (i.e., classic ketogenic diet and modified Atkins diet) in adults with intractable epilepsy, and to provide useful information for clinical practice. "
3.	Obesity 07/01/2006 - "Despite the proven efficacy of the established high-carbohydrate diets for treatment and prevention of obesity and type 2 diabetes, alternative diets including high-protein, high-fat, low-carbohydrate diets have become increasingly popular. " 01/01/2007 - "[Efficacy of low-carbohydrate diet in the treatment of obesity in adolescents]." 09/01/2005 - "A couple of studies using low-carbohydrate diets in the treatment of obesity are reviewed. " 10/07/2004 - "Before low-carbohydrate diets can be considered an equivalent alternative to low-fat diets for the treatment of obesity, long-term clinical trials are urgently required. " 05/22/2003 - "A randomized trial of a low-carbohydrate diet for obesity."
4.	Cardiovascular Diseases (Cardiovascular Disease) 07/01/2015 - "A low-carbohydrate diet based on animal sources is associated with higher all-cause mortality, whereas a vegetable-based low-carbohydrate diet is associated with lower cardiovascular disease mortality. " 09/07/2010 - "A low-carbohydrate diet based on animal sources was associated with higher all-cause mortality in both men and women, whereas a vegetable-based low-carbohydrate diet was associated with lower all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality rates. " 08/03/2010 - "A low-carbohydrate diet is associated with favorable changes in cardiovascular disease risk factors at 2 years. " 07/01/2009 - "Development of symptomatic cardiovascular disease after self-reported adherence to the Atkins diet." 01/01/2006 - "Effects of a carbohydrate-restricted diet on emerging plasma markers for cardiovascular disease."
5.	Seizures (Seizure) 12/01/2013 - "Now after 10 years of continued use, approximately 400 patients have been reported in over 30 studies of the modified Atkins diet as treatment for intractable seizures, with results demonstrating similar efficacy to the ketogenic diet and improved tolerability. " 01/01/2014 - "In this study, response to treatment was greater than a 50% reduction in seizures and at the end of first, second, and third months for the ketogenic diet were 55%, 30%, and 70% and for the Atkins diet were 50%, 65%, and 70%, respectively. " 01/01/2012 - "One observational study suggested that the Atkins diet may have a similar effect on seizure control, but this requires more investigation." 03/01/2015 - "Modified Atkins diet used as add-on therapy to AEDs in four patients with drug resistant seizures caused a considerable decrease in AED serum concentrations. " 02/01/2015 - "A high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet, often referred to as a ketogenic diet (KD), has been suggested to reduce frequency and severity of chronic pediatric and adult seizures. "
