Thank you, bower my doctor strongly advised me against the KD. I am doing well on the medications I am on and the Celiacs played a part in my seizures. So by following a very strict Celiac diet I have been able to reduce from 3 to 2 anticonvulsants. Unfortunately celiacs tend to gain weight naturally often. I also have…

I forget that answer but to my surprise- garlic and onion (fresh and dehydrated in processed foods labelled”spices”) also affect many of us as they are also in the Fructan category with the glutens - wheat, barley, rye. I know I look for everything to be certified gluten-free and my meats nitrate and nitrite free. Cross…

Once those were treated - we all slept great. (I did get sleep apnea ruled out as well just in case - no machine for me!). Good Luck.
