Hi Dr. Tracey, I’m a registered dietitian at a behavioral health hospital and find this interesting. Could you list the research so I could check it out?! Thank you so much.

I have coeliac disease and have been trying to go gluten free for at least three years, and have just completely given up. Going gluten free isn’t as easy as it sounds. And if you are already struggling with mental health issues, you are not going to make it on your own. If you decide to go Ketp, make sure you check with your doctor first.

What about the slow COMT gene mutation

[kristian]

Is there any connection with psychosis and neurodegenerative disorders when it comes to glutumate induced excitotoxicity. I never knew about about these neural markers of schizophrenia so this is sorta worrying

[rissabiagi]

I wonder if there is any crossover with how and why the ketogenic diet is used in the treatment of epilepsy—specifically, in my daughter’s case Lenox Gastaut Syndrome. We are starting next month! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Long term, not sure it's healthy... Might be good for severe depression and bipolar?

Does high fruit diet works for Scizophrenia???

Amisulpride improves glucose function its like metformin for the brain.


in my case, fruit diet help my cognitive function but it does not work to lessen i still need my xanax and antidepressants for it.

[naomimara]

For "simple" depression (unipolar) also?
