Talk:Ketogenic diet/NewSources

A PubMed search shows there has been a fair bit of publishing activity since this article was last significantly updated. Here are some of the papers that could be used as sources or make interesting reading for understanding the issues. I've got copies of the papers that are indented and those that are free online. I need to get hold of others.
