Ketogenic diets and low-carb diets are similar in various ways. Although, as the name suggests, the former leads to a substantial increase in the blood levels of ketones and provides comparatively fewer carbs. A myth says that to provide the brain with sufficient energy, one must consume 130g of carbs/day. In a low-carb diet, up to 70% of the brain is fueled by ketones and the rest by glucose produced in the liver. However, both these diets have many other health benefits for improving brain functioning in adults.
