Heidi Pfeifer, RD, LDN

Heidi Pfeifer registered dietitian with 25+ years working with the ketogenic diet. During that time she changed the way that dietary therapy has been implemented by developing the Low Glycemic Index Treatment as an alternative to the classic ketogenic diet. It is now being used as a dietary treatment worldwide. She has written multiple book chapters and has been published in peer reviewed journal articles including the consensus statement for providing optimal management guidelines for Ketogenic treatment, as well as the use of LGIT in Angelman syndrome. She is considered an expert in her field speaking both nationally and internationally on all aspects of ketogenic diet therapies. Recently she was included as a technical expert panel for the systematic review for the therapeutic dietary management of infantile epilepsies. She received the inaugural Millicent Kelly award for Excellence and Compassion in Administering Ketogenic Therapies.
