TCR Implementation Guide

This implementation guide provides clinicians with general guidance for implementing therapeutic carbohydrate reduction as a dietary intervention in hospitals, clinics, or their own practice.

Adele Hite, PhD, MPH, RD coordinated the original effort to get this document to the point where it is publishable. Her efforts were nothing short of miraculous.

We formed a panel of advisers made up of experienced clinical practitioners and experts in the field to help us get this work done.  The panel consisted of David Cavan, MD, FRCP; Mark Cucuzzella MD, FAAFP; Robert Cywes, MD, PhD; Georgia Ede, MD; Gary Fettke, MB, BS, FRACS, FAOrthA; Brian Lenzkes, MD; Timothy D. Noakes, MD, DSc; Bret Scher, MD; Franziska Spritzler, RD, CDE; David Unwin, FRCGP; Eric C. Westman, MD, MHS; and William S. Yancy, Jr., MD, MSH.

Work is now underway to generate addenda for conditions where TCR requires a more nuanced approach

This document will be updated from time to time as the science evolves.  If you download or print it out it is imperative that you return to this page from time to time to ensure that you have the latest version.  On the right are links to the pdf versions and the various language translations.

Patient safety and support is of the highest importance. For practitioners who do not have prescribing/de-prescribing privileges, this means ensuring that all patients using therapeutic carbohydrate reduction are assisted in adjusting medications as needed by a professional trained in this process.
