Introduction/Summary.
{{Skeleton}}
* The MAD started by accident, when a child was put onto the Adkins diet prior to starting the traditional ketogenic diet and their seizures stopped.
* The MAD is similar to the induction phase of the Adkins diet, with children allowed 10 grams/day of carbohydrate rather than the 20 grams/day allowed for adults.
* The ketogenic ratio of the MAD is typically between 1.5:1 and 2:1
* The MAD does not start with a hospital stay or a fast.
* Adding a ketocal shake to the MAD raises the ketogenic ratio to 1.8:1, which raises the success rate from 50% to 80%.
* Going from the MAD to the [[Ketogenic Ratio Diet]] resulted in 37% having at least a 10% improvement in seizures, but only a few became seizure free and no child that had no improvement on MAD had an improvement on the traditional ketogenic diet.
