Endometrial Cancer

This trial is limited to female participants, as it is a study of ovarian and endometrial cancer patients.

Participants in the usual care plus ketogenic diet group will receive usual care plus dietary counseling in accordance with a ketogenic diet such that ~5% energy comes from carbohydrate, 25% energy from protein, and 70% energy from fat for the duration of the 12 week study.

Ketogenic diet

Participants in the usual care plus AND diet group will receive usual care plus dietary counseling in accordance with the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics guidelines in 2013 for the duration of the 12 week study.
