 THERAPEUTIC PROTOCOL OF PALEOMEDICINA HUNGARY

Paleolithic ketogenic diet (PKD): A diet covering and limited to our
physiological needs
We have developed the PKD in 2010-2011. Previously we have been using the
paleolithic diet which proved to be ineffective in the vast majority of chronic
conditions. We believe that the PKD is the only evolutionary adapted diet for
humans. Rehabilitation of chronic diseases is most effective when the diet is
limited to our real physiological needs. Eating fruits and vegetables does not
form part of our physiological need but are associated with risks. Plant foods
can only be regarded as ”relatively” safe and only when certain plant food
items are consumed and only in limited amounts. The diet was derived from
clinical evidence and was not primarily influenced by archeological or
ethnographic evidence, given that the application of the diet is clinical too.
Altogether clinical experience was derived from about 4000 patients.
General therapeutic steps
• Discontinue all dietary supplements
• Reconsider preexisting medication
• In some cases vitamin D (200.000 IU during 4 days)
• Laboratory follow-up at 3 weeks
• Intestinal permeability test at 4 weeks
• Tapering of medicines is coordinated by the Paleomedicina team with
the ”caring” physician being informed (to prevent conflicting advices)
Follow-up according to disease type/severity
1. Basic cases (obesity, T2DM, hypertension)
Individual consultations, group courses
2. Overmedicated patient (5≤ medicines and/or beta-blocker, psychiatry
drugs, antiepileptics, steroid, biological therapy, immunosuppressant):
Always start the diet in an in-patient setting at our rehabilitation center.
3. Autoimmune disease without complications (asthma, allergy,
hypothyreosis, eczema): Individual consultation followed by a 2-months
online follow-up program
4. Autoimmune diseases with complications
Always start the diet in an inpatient setting. 3 weeks of a special meat
cream alone then a 2-months online program
5. Cancer patients
Start the diet in an inpatient setting, special meat cream for 3 weeks then
2-months close follow-up. Initially: imaging every 4 weeks. We advice
surgery whenever (technically) possible but advise against
radio/chemotherapy.
6. Epilepsy, T1DM
Start the diet in an inpatient setting. T1DM: Initially 2 phone/skype per
day. Diet dairy and frequent personal consultations. Epilepsy: EEG every
6 weeks.
Tapering preexisting medications
Further considerations
• If antibiotics are needed only use them parenterally
• If beta blockers are needed only use selective ones such as ivabradine

Characterizaton of the PKD
• 70-100% animal based food, 0-30% plant based foods (in volume)
”Diet exactly confined to our needs” ”Physiologically still tolerable diet”
• Animal foods include red and fatty meats, fat and offal preferably from pasture-
raised animals
• Fat:protein ratio about 2:1 (in grams)
• No nitrates, nitrites or other additives in meat products
• Plant foods only include fruits and ”paleolithic” vegetables from organic sources
• No artificial sweeteners but honey is allowed in moderation
• Black and herbal tea are excluded
• Coffee is allowed only after full regeneration and in moderation
• Eggs are initially excluded in those with highly elevated intestinal permeability
and/or vaccines during the preceding 6 months
Therapeutic protocol for T1DM patients
It is not the elevated glucose level but inflammation which causes late
complications in diabetes. Therefore:
• We only give insulin above 10 mmol/l blood glucose
• To avoid hypoglycemia we stop giving long-acting insulin 24 hours before
starting the diet and stop short-acting insulin before the first PKD meal
• We only give insulin to meals (as it also happens physiologically)
• There is no correction between meals. Correction may only occur at the next
meal
• C peptide is measured right before PKD onset, at day 21 then every 3 months
• Continuous tissue glucose monitoring at 3 weeks (across 6 days)
Intestinal permeability – a key issue
Normalization of the intestinal permeability is of
crucial importance. This is supported by consistent
results with the PEG400 intestinal permeability
test carried out in our patients. No other medical
intervention or diet has so far been shown to
normalize pathological intestinal permeability.
Normalization of intestinal permeability is followed by the normalization of
other biological membranes including the blood-brain barrier.
Efficacy
Chronic civilization disorders, including autoimmune diseases, are reversible
when highly adhered to the PKD. Reversing autoimmune diseases of the CNS,
however, takes much longer. In cancer patients tumor growth can be stopped and
formation of metastases can be prevented. In some patients we also experienced
decrease in tumor size.
Safety issues
We never experienced side-effects or vitamin/mineral deficiencies due to the
PKD. Our longest follow-up is 7 years. The diet is safe in pregnancy and in
lactating mothers. Weaning infants onto the PKD is safe and easy too.
One species – one diet
There is no need to personalize the diet. Our psychological needs may, however,
diverge from our physiological needs. Every human is able to eat and utilize
animal meat and fat (except for a few genetic conditions which already emerge in
infancy and usually cause early death). There is no such thing as ”metabolic
types”. Knowing the laboratory parameters associated with the PKD there is a
need to reconsider normal ranges for some of the laboratory parameters.
