The KEN Theory
What is it about
The KEN consists of a 24 hours a day infusion of a simple solution of proteins in a cycle of 10 days:
a) Infusion of proteins allows the patient to lose in 10 days up to 7% to 10% of initial body weight.
b) Continuous infusion creates a state of ketosis (children’s ketoacidosis) which takes away all feeling of hunger.
