I am self treating through a diet approach and am unmedicated.
Integration
Lab results I track & supplements I take
For supplements, I find electrolytes are the ones I most need to keep on top of.
Nutritional
How I eat, incorporate fasting, & approach macronutrients
My approach is modified Atkins. As I'm autistic, I tend to love routine, so I tend to eat the same meals daily. Total carbs I keep to around 25g. These mainly come from strawberries, raspberries, various nuts and seeds and a small amount of cabbage/carrot in my coleslaw. I also eat eggs, beef, lamb, pork, chicken, salmon, butter, and a small amount of dairy from goat milk and grated mozzarella cheese. I also add C8 MCT oil, around 20ml per day. I tend to avoid things like bacon, sausages and other processed meats. I don't eat/make any keto treats.
Ketosis
Target ketone levels & testing methods
I use a blood monitor about once or twice per month, and I aim for around 1 mmol/L. I also have a breath meter to use as a rough guide, just because the test strips are expensive.
