    My mom has it... devastating(( she still loves bread, pasta, sugar. I will try her on this diet, at least for a couple weeks.... she feels horrible and I have 1 y.o. twins and 3rd on the way. She has anxiety, weakness, etc. I owe her to try it😢

    Thank you! 57 yr. old recently diagnosed with tremor dominant Parkinsons. Fortunately, non dominant arm. I'm going to try this along with fasting which really jacks up the ketones. I've been using Metamucil before meals and taking probiotic every day which has been very beneficial for constipation. I've been researching anything I can to treat the cause, not just symptoms. I know the gut flora is very important as well.

    It may not be the gluten but the highly processed flours, preservatives, and other additives (sugar) in commercial breads. Sprouted wheat, kamut, spelt, etc are another story. Keto made me feel totally crazy, it is NOT for me-too extreme-but I support people doing everything they can to fight Parkinson’s and if this works for anybody-hooray!

    Pills have been my Savour. ......14 years. Yes, the last couple of years has / is a challenge.
    I believe the Exenatide Injection weekly which I have been having on and off for about 18 months is my answer. When OFF I definitely regressed. I have been back on Exenatide now for 8 weeks and now know I’m improving. My whole being , energy, depression , confidence, sleeping has improved.

    I'd really like to hear from Dr. King about the keto diet- how it's implemented on a practical level. With my limited understanding, I'm anticipating eating a lot of coconut fat, olive oil, etc. I'm wondering how to evaluate "normal" foods- the lack of fiber, etc. Thanks

    • @ms.q7445
      @ms.q7445 10 місяців тому

      You have to have fiber. If you count net carbs instead of carbs psyllium husks have zero net carbs. A lot of keto people who are healthy eat lots of cauliflower, broccoli, brussels sprouts, etc. And semi-sour berries such as raspberries!

      Only help you will get is thru your diet. Keep looking on YT for the guidance you are in need of. Fats are one of the keys. Look up Bullet Proof coffee.

    Parkinson's sufferers have low uric acid. Dietary measures to raise blood levels of uric acid reduce Parkinson's symptoms. A ketogenuc diet can effect this, but can also raise uric acid past the desirable point, Into the range that may cause gout. Any diet that raises uric acid will have the desired effect.. Dairy products lower uric acid. Good for gout, bad for Parkinson's. Eliminating GMO grains and processed foods is good for everyone.

    what about essential tremors ? My dad had Parkinsons and I found simple things to help him but the doctors did nothing about his nutrition which he was ending up with TV dinners at the end.............

    I think its an excellent interview, but not sure I found the right person on Facebook. Also have questions about Kelogenic diet with Parkinson's. You're not supposed to have protein when taking carba dopa-leva dopa , or dairy. Most people wait until night time for protein
    . Take away that and carbs and you'll starve.
