Newsletter |
---|
The KetoGator Connection Newsletter was started in 1998 to increase communication about ketogenic therapy to all of the patients and their families in the University of Florida Ketogenic Therapy Research Program. Many caregivers have similar questions that other caregivers have, and they have a multitude of ideas and experiences that they can share with others. The goal of the newsletter is to inform caregivers about ketogenic therapy and tools for success while providing a sense of connectivity and community amongst other caregivers, the clinic staff, and with the KetoGators writing the newsletter.
Our Newsletters are published in a quarterly fashion and are filled with articles and activities that will entertain, inform, and educate the caregivers. Each newsletter provides different articles including specific topics on ketogenic therapy, new recipes, a KetoKid series, recipes, and artwork activities. There are many useful resources in the newsletter such as advice from caregivers with children on the therapy and information about different foods in the diet.
We have provided links to all the Newsletters published to date and hope that you find it as a resource. Please note that older versions of the newsletter are present as a resource, but given the nature of science, noncurrent newsletters may have noncurrent, and no longer correct, information. If you have any questions or comments about the newsletter or if there are specific topics you would like to see in our next issue, please feel free to contact your KetoBuddy or e-mail the KetoGator team at:
