The lecture and master class by Maria Emmerich took place on November 18, 2018. But you still have the opportunity to see how it went and to gain new and useful information from a leading world expert.

​In March 2019, at our invitation, Csaba Tóth, the head of the European clinic Paleomedicina, visited Moscow. Dr. Csaba Tóth has extensive years of experience in using the ketogenic diet for various neurological, somatic, and oncological diseases. The webinar contains a large number of clinical examples. The information is exclusive and may be of interest to many.​

During his webinar, Arkady Prokopov talks about the fundamentals of mitochondrial medicine, mitochondrial concepts of various diseases, and the principles and methods of mitochondrial therapy.

3 basic principles of the ketogenic diet Variants of the ketogenic diet (PKD, Carnivore, SKD, KLS) Food selection You can eat fat! Sources of healthy fat Diet planning Working with the ketocalculator Meal schedule Stages of the personal journey The path to ketosis Ketone levels Keto-adaptation I'm in ketosis. What to be afraid of? Nutrient support Myths (cholesterol, gallbladder, liver, kidneys, etc.) Pleasant bonuses of the ketogenic diet Main mistakes The 15-meal rule Sample weekly menu
