Research Abstract

The propose of this study was to clarify the effect of ketogenic diet on the muscle recovery after muscular injury. Muscle injury was induced by cardiotoxin induction on rat hindlimb muscle and the muscle recovery was evaluated two and four weeks later. However, we could not found any improvement of muscle recovery compared to control diet animals, although there is no halmful influence. On the other hand, ketogenic diet inhibited the increase in body weight compared to control diet. This suggests that ketogenic diet could play a role in control of body weight without muscle functional decline.
