The ketogenic diet (often called keto diet ) dates back to the 1920s and was created by endocrinologist Dr. Henry Geyelin to treating epilepsy.  In 1921 Geyelin found that kind of food which he recommended has a positive effect on how the body processes nutrients, leading to fewer attacks in patients. It is very similar to the Atkins diet. Actually phase induction with the Atkins diet is ketogenic diet. Basic principle behind ketogenic diet is to reduce the carbohydrates intake and replace them with healthy fats and protein.
