“…Moreover, the other diet type including the modified atkins diet (MAD) contains unlimited proteins and provides carbohydrates amounts in lower amounts for children (10 g/day) compared to adults (15 g/day) with a 1:1 fat-to-nonfat ratio and is less restrictive alternative compared to the classic KD in terms of discipline and maintaining the compliance. However, using the MAD in the GLUT1 DS patients were shown to have comparable efficacy with KD with a lower ketosis, improved taste, easier daily management, and better selection of dietary foods [ 7 , 8 , 9 ]. Differences exist also in the indications of this diet corresponding to clinical phenotypes and age groups as follows: the classic ketogenic diet 4:1 carbohydrate is indicated in severe phenotypes in infants; the classic ketogenic diet 3:1 carbohydrate is indicated more in mild phenotypes in infants, both phenotypes in pre-school age, school age, adolescent, adults; and MAD is indicated in mild phenotypes in school age, adolescents, and adults [ 9 , 10 ].…”
