How I build clinical & emotional support & manage medications
The Ren-Nu Program (Santa Barbara Nutrients) provided dietitian guidance and KetoCitra®. We monitored progress using Cronometer, Keto-Mojo, symptoms, and labs.
Integration
Lab results I track & supplements I take
I previously took iron, vitamin B12, and vitamin D supplements but have since discontinued them. I still take KetoCitra® and tributyrin daily, as well as a freeze-dried liver supplement every three days. Yes, I got a full set of labs at the beginning of my journey and regularly since then. To monitor PKD, I usually get a metabolic panel every three months. Full labs are usually done at least once a year.
Nutritional
How I eat, incorporate fasting, & approach macronutrients
I began with a mostly plant-focused, strict ketogenic diet but have since transitioned to a more omnivorous approach that prioritizes animal-based foods. I consume 20–50 g of net carbohydrates daily and 1–1.5 g of protein per kg of lean body weight. I follow a 16:8 eating schedule nearly every day and do not take cheat days. At social events, I bring my own food or choose options that fit my lifestyle, and I do not drink alcohol.
Ketosis
Target ketone levels & testing methods
Yes I measured blood ketones with a Keto-Mojo, aiming for 0.5–3.0 mmol/L. I have also occasionally used a continuous ketone monitor.
