Re: Memory getting worse starting keto

Lots of people get keto flu due to the diuretic effect at the beginning which can deplete some important minerals. That said, SALT will help tremendously. If you don't want to lick it off your hand, put it in some broth or have some bullion. I use a blood ketone meter and aim for between 2-3 mmol/L....

Re: Just accepted into an AD Study

I haven't forgotten you. Still doing well on my Plan. Keto is evolving rapidly in the the Internet mind. Now, questionnaires include the term Therapeutic Keto, now being recommended to treat all the neurological disorders in the elderly. This brings up the question of Exogenous Ketones: https://keto...

Re: Just accepted into an AD Study

Brainz, I had a visit with my PCP this week. She said, " Your cholesterol is elevated, and this is where I'm required to tell you that you should go on Statins." Me: "Just so you know, I'll NEVER take Statins. Because I'm always in Ketosis, my Lipid Panels are always skewed. My trigly...

Re: Just accepted into an AD Study

What kind words, and very welcome. I was feeling so alone in my efforts and frankly unappreciated. I'm a crybaby. Or maybe my runny eyes are just allergies.

Re: Just accepted into an AD Study

So this thread is not incomplete, I'd like to report the outcome of my attempts to start an AD group at the church. I never heard back from any of the people at the Cleveland Clinic Outreach. Apparently, Outreach is confined to the patients and caregivers taking advantage of what is offered in house...

Re: Sleep!

Xactly, I've also tried tranquileyes. One of my problems is that when I'm asleep, I take the things off. Dumb. I just ordered something new made by Eyeeco. Maybe it'll work for me. Or maybe I'll leave them on. Who knows. We can only try, right? Dropped using the humidifier for the time being as the ...

Re: Just accepted into an AD Study

When I was part of the EARLY Study, I had a great contact person. Over the weekend I sent her an email requesting assistance in getting through to the Outreach person at the local Cleveland Clinic. She answered back this morning and I have high hopes that this will indeed take place. More proof that...

Re: Just accepted into an AD Study

Sigh. Having NO luck with community outreach. As with so many other things in life these days, education and prevention take a back seat to actual treatment. I noticed there are two new drugs coming out. Hope they're effective. I wonder why there are always people in groups who claim to have all the...
