Many people wonder and ask me, "why are you on a diet at such a young age?" Boy is ketogenic fun to explain...
I was diagnosed with epilepsy at a relatively young age. I would have been about 7 when I had my first known seizure. While I was blessed to only have seizures occasionally at night it was still a scary thing for me and my family. The doctors we spoke to reccomended many different types of medications, but at the most all it would do is stop the seizures. If I went that route we wouldn't have been able to know whether they were something I would just grow out of or not. So we did some digging and stumbled across the keto diet. My dad wanted to try it for its documented proof of controlling epilepsy. Now I can't lie when I say I was VERY upset at first being a kid not able to eat carbs. However overtime I adapted the lifestyle, key word LIFESTYLE. The keto diet has helped my epilepsy tremendously and we haven't seen a seizure since. I'm so lucky to have found a solution that works for me. I want to share my favorite recipes and tricks about the keto diet to help others. So whether you are dieting, have health concerns, or just want a better lifestyle remember to always find what works for YOU.
