    I was reading about the Wahls Protocol (kind of paleo, if I’m reading correctly), and now keto. I honestly don’t like them. I like my potatoes, my tomatoes, corn, fruits, etc. But I might try a balance between my starchy and sweet foods and these diets and see what happens. Just slowly because depressive episodes and executive dysfunction make changes difficult 🐢

    Thank you for the article!

      It’s definitely not for everyone. I just started keto last week on my doctor’s recommendation, and it’s been great for me, but I can see it being a nightmare for others. I apparently have a gluten sensitivity because my intestinal issues are basically gone in one week, and the only change is not eating any gluten. And I am finding it surprisingly easy to not eat carbs, but again, that’s me. And it’s only been a week - check in with me in a month when I’m dying for some pasta, lol.
