The statutory purpose of the foundation reads as follows:
“The Foundation aims to promote knowledge, education and awareness about ketogenic nutrition and keto as metabolic therapy, as well as to advance the quality, safety and integrity of its application in practice, in the broadest sense of the word, and furthermore everything that is related to, belongs to, and/or may be conducive to the foregoing.”
(Article 3, paragraph 1 of the Articles of Association)
The foundation is an independent, non-commercial organisation. It has no profit motive and does not distribute profits to board members or third parties.
The European Keto Foundation advances knowledge, education and awareness about ketogenic nutrition and metabolic therapy. We support healthcare professionals, researchers and the general public with reliable, evidence-based information. Our focus is on public health education, prevention and the responsible application of ketogenic therapies in practice.
We envision a Europe where evidence-based ketogenic nutrition is simple, safe and supported in practice — for professionals and for the people who can benefit from it.
