Vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients
Nutrients play a crucial role in supporting the health and effectiveness of the keto diet. The right balance and sufficient intake of nutrients provide energy, support metabolic processes, strengthen the immune system, and contribute to overall well-being.

Enzymes
Nattokinase. Improves blood rheology, prevents thrombosis. Destroys fibrin clots, reduces blood viscosity, supports the function of the heart and blood vessels. Therapeutic doses (100–200 mg or 2,000–4,000 FU) – for atherosclerosis, hypertension, prevention of thrombosis.

Enzymes
Serrapeptase. Dissolves fibrin, reduces inflammation, decreases swelling and pain. Used for the resorption of scars, cysts, thrombi, in sinusitis and chronic inflammations. Therapeutic doses (40,000–120,000 IU on an empty stomach) – for fibrosis, inflammation, thrombosis.

Enzymes
Liazy. They catalyze the breakdown of molecules without the involvement of water and oxidizers, forming new bonds. Inadequate amounts may lead to disruptions in the metabolism of amino acids and organic acids. Therapeutic doses of enzymes are used to support metabolism and digestion.

Enzymes
Translocases. They provide transport of molecules and ions across membranes, regulate energy metabolism. Deficiency is associated with impaired mitochondrial function and reduced ATP production. Enzymes and coenzymes are used in therapy to improve cellular respiration.

Enzymes
Ligases. They connect molecules through ATP energy, participate in the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins. Insufficiency leads to a slowdown in cell growth and tissue repair. They are used for therapeutic purposes to restore metabolism and regeneration processes.

Enzymes
Isomerases. They catalyze the restructuring of molecules, providing flexibility in metabolism. In case of deficiency, there may be disruptions in energy metabolism, as well as in the absorption of carbohydrates and lipids. In medicine, they are used to optimize metabolism and in cases of impaired glucose tolerance.

Enzymes
Hydrolases. They break down complex substances with the involvement of water (proteins, fats, carbohydrates). Insufficiency manifests as digestive disorders and nutrient deficiencies. Therapeutic doses (enzyme complexes) are used in cases of dyspepsia, pancreatitis, and malabsorption syndrome.

Enzymes
Transferases. Functional groups are transferred between molecules, key participants in metabolism. A deficiency leads to impaired synthesis of amino acids, lipids, and hormones. They are used in therapy to support metabolism and hormonal balance.

Enzymes
Oxidoreductases. They catalyze oxidation-reduction reactions, ensuring cellular respiration and detoxification. In case of deficiency - decreased energy, accumulation of toxins. Antioxidant complexes and cofactors are therapeutically used to normalize metabolism.

Minerals
Silver. In the body, it accumulates and can cause toxicity (argyrosis, liver and kidney damage). Therapeutic use is limited to antiseptic forms for external use. Internal intake is contraindicated.

Minerals
Barium. Toxic heavy metal, affects the nervous system, heart, and muscles. Upon exposure, it causes intoxication, arrhythmias, and muscle spasms. In medicine, only insoluble barium sulfate is used for radiological studies.

Minerals
Strontium. A chemical element similar to calcium can replace it in bones. An excess disrupts mineralization and leads to bone fragility. Therapeutic forms (strontium ranelate) are used strictly according to indications in osteoporosis but have safety limitations.

Minerals
Mercury. Disrupts the functioning of the brain, kidneys, and immune system. With accumulation - tremors, memory impairment, depression, coordination problems. Therapeutic approaches include chelators and detoxification support (glutathione, selenium, alpha-lipoic acid).

Minerals
Lead. Toxic to the nervous system, blood, bones, and kidneys, displacing calcium and zinc. With accumulation - anemia, developmental delays, headaches, hyperactivity in children. Chelators (such as DMSA) and correction of deficiencies (zinc, calcium, iron) are used for elimination.

Minerals
Cadmium. Toxic to the kidneys, bones, and respiratory system, it disrupts enzymatic processes. With accumulation — osteoporosis, renal failure, hypertension. Therapy includes increasing levels of zinc, selenium, and antioxidants to displace cadmium.

Minerals
Arsenic. It disrupts metabolism and can cause cancer. In cases of chronic poisoning, there are skin lesions, arrhythmia, and oncological processes. Chelators (DMSA, DMPS), selenium, and a diet rich in sulfur-containing amino acids are used for detoxification.

Minerals
Beryllium. Impairs the functioning of the immune and enzymatic systems, may replace magnesium and zinc. Upon exposure - pneumonia (berylliosis), weakness, immunosuppression. For elimination, it is important to address magnesium and zinc deficiency, support the liver, and provide antioxidant protection.

Other Substances
Transfer factor

Vitamins
Vitamin U. Protection of mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract, anti-ulcer action, detoxification. In case of deficiency, predisposition to ulcer disease, gastritis. Therapeutic doses (200-400 mg) - for gastrointestinal diseases.

Vitamins
Vitamin B17 (амигдалин, лаэтрил). Antitumor properties (discussive), analgesic effect. Toxic in large doses! Requires careful use under the supervision of a specialist.
