Therapeutic
I don't have a care or oversight team and wasn't taking meds for any of my conditions as I was managing them with other nutritional strategies such as turmeric and avoiding certain foods like gluten.
Integration
No lab tests. Once I realised that the ketogenic diet I was following was probably helping mitochondrial function, I started to also take various supplements such as Q10 to further help.
Nutritional
I did 3 months strict carnivore. Ruminant meat mainly, drinking only water. After the first 3 months I reintroduced good black coffee in the mornings and vodka on the occasional evening. If we went out to eat I'd opt for some form of meat only such as chicken wings grilled & perhaps ordering 3 portions. I have followed the 16:8 IF protocol for several years and continue to do so. No carbs initially but in the last few months I've concorporated very small amounts of home made sauerkraut for gut health. I aim to consume about 1000g of ruminant meat/day along with goats butter to taste. Flavoured with rock salt.
Ketosis
I don't test for ketones as I don't see the point. I do however have a sweet taste in my mouth most/all of the time which I believe is indicative of being in ketosis.
