After medicine failed multiple times I felt like I had taken everything from lamictal to lithium and nothing worked for me. I became so intrigued in why these medicines that were supposed to be balancing the chemicals in my brain always made me feel sluggish or gained weight or even lactated. I thought that doesn’t seem balanced to me. After reading paper after paper after paper I found that people who maintain a keto diet who have been diagnosed with bipolar don’t have nearly as severe of mood swings as they did while on a traditional diet. It has something to do with the body’s inability or super efficiency to use glucose (usually carbohydrates or sugar) as energy. I started doing keto and aerobic exercise and no longer have mood swings and am not on meds I feel like I have my life back. What do you guys know or think?
