Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effect of the ketogenic diet on general health and sports performance, which are among the most important goals pursued by athletes. Amid the proliferation of dietary systems with their respective benefits and drawbacks, and the studies that either support or contradict them, there has been an increasing spread of this dietary pattern in recent years — whether through its practical adoption by individuals, its promotion, or the large volume of research conducted on it, particularly in the areas of weight loss and general health improvement. However, this common use does not reflect the original therapeutic purpose of the ketogenic diet. Recent literature has seen a notable growth in studies addressing its various applications, including its effects on sports performance and the physical level of athletes. Findings indicate that athletes' performance responses to this diet are not uniform, varying according to multiple factors such as individual physical and physiological characteristics and the nature of the sport practiced. Accordingly, this study seeks to present a conceptual framework for the ketogenic diet, review its most notable applications, and shed light on its potential effects on certain physical capacities related to athletic performance.
