What's covered in this course

Welcome to this workshop where we explore the use of the medium chain triglyceride (MCT) KD. By the end, you will understand how to calculate an individualised MCT prescription and have practised the calculation of sample MCT keto meals. A case study will be presented and strategies for fine tuning. It should take you approximately 3 hours, including activities, to complete.

Nicole is the lead Ketogenic dietitian at Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge. She graduated with a degree in Human Nutrition and Dietetics in 2013, and started her dietetic career working in London. Keen to work in paediatrics and to live somewhere with more scenic (and less hazardous) cycling routes, Nicole moved to Cambridge in 2015.

She has worked within the ketogenic dietary service ever since, delivering Ketogenic Dietary Therapy to Children across East Anglia with refractory epilepsy and metabolic conditions. She is currently training to be a nonmedical prescriber as a part of an Advanced Clinical Practice Pathway.
 
The care and quality commission (CQC) recently commended the Cambridge Ketogenic Diet service in its caring quality matrix, particularly focussing on the family networking and support events. The team’s ethos is to provide patient-focussed care, shaping diets to allow families to manage the therapy around normal family life with as little disruption as possible.

KetoCollege Feedback

Feedback collected from past participants of KetoCollege

Our hospital usually uses the classical and modified keto but I found the MCT session very interesting as a potential to try in the future. Working through the preparation, planning and weaning in a systematic way was very useful and clear.
