Nick Norwitz PhD describes his case series showing recovery from anorexia using an animal based ketogenic diet - https://insulinresistance.org/index.php/jir/article/view/84.

We discuss the 30 year battle one of the case series patients describes prior to recovery, how the 'eat everything' tactic doesn't work for many, and how this case series gives us fuel to investigate further, but is not a blanket recommendation for people with eating disorders to experiment alone.
