Ketogenic diet

Tue, 10/14/2014 - 11:10

I am a 32 year old female married with two little girls under the age of five. After trying several medications that did not control my seizures my doctor recommended the ketogenic diet! I am pleased to say I am having some amazing results!!! I feel fantastic!! The only down side is that I had to do everything by myself there are no dietitians for adults on this diet, but I am so happy that I have accomplished this battle on my own!! We can win this fight against epilepsy!! I send my prayers and love to all!!

Hi, I started the ketogenic diet and loved it but was told to stop because of a bacterial infection I’m fighting. Anyways I feel like no one talks about the Keto diet and I’m happy to hear you’re having success! I’m also 32 with two kids. Any chance you’d ever want to chat about it? I am new to this still not exactly sure how it works....
