Step five: cognitive dificulties and fibromyalgia.This subject is right up my street. I feel I have helped my mum and my dad and most of all, because I take over 50 supplements a day and fast till after 5pm 6 days a week and eat keto and exercise most days, myself! This is completely fixable. There is no need to live in a fog. I remember before all these supplements, keto and fasting, that if I got a flu/cold, that I would talk to people about feeling like I was behind glass, not quite in touch with the world. Now ofcourse, I know what was going on. Because I was so malnutritioned the virus would tip my body into a survival state. There is a similar state that is realised when in shock. Also some people actually feel the affects of stress in this way too. Brain fog and malnutrition. I would also add that there are toxins that add to this brain fog melaise too. My earlier research into ADHD led to some discoveries that go some way to explain attention deficit I would say this was most likely, amongst other things, because of malnutrition. This is not very scientific, but as you know, with complex systems I am not a big fan of the scientific approach. Similarly as most mothers will testify that certain foods that contain certain ingredients will send their children a little bit hyperactive! Supplements to help the brain. So start there. Choline is concentrated lecithin, but lecithin also contains phosphorus, inositol and linoleoic acid, which gives extra protection against heart disease, it also helps with brain function, so this may be good to know. so take upto a gram of that a day too. including some cases of senility and also lowering cholesterol, so let that be the next, and take upto 3g a day in divided doeses. Next ofcourse is vitamin c, and more than 3g a day is a good guide. Next is b2 riboflavin and b12 and b6, only 500mg of b2 is enough. B12 and B6 should be taken together. Most suppliers supply high does of these already. However, in extreme cases taking them three times through out the day will give you an indication of how much you might need. Tyrosine is an amino acid that helped me congnitively, but if you are not taking iodine in sufficient quantities it might put a drain on your HPA axis, see above. The brain needs a stable glucose supply too. So eating foods low on the will be a good place to start. Having sugar levels in the blood that are too low are also a problem. Any meat or protein with non starchy vegetables will surfice. Eating at regular intervals until you manage to bring your sugar levels under control is necessary before considering intermittent fasting. Glucose readings I would probably just go with the Amazon suggested option. The best time to take your sugar readings is within the first hour of waking. This gives what is called a fasting blood sugar reading. It is realatively unafected by what was eaten the night before, however, you will find in time that certain foods or drinks will affect the morning fasting blood sugar levesls. The readings you are looking are going to be in either dl or mmols (millimoles): 100 dl if the machine comes out with figures around the 100 decilitres mark. This is the equivalent to 5 mmols. 80 dl is considered low but 75 dl is considered too low or 5 mmols. Similarly, if your readings are as high as 110 dl that is kind of OK, or 6 mmols, If your numbers start to get above 120 dl or 7 mmols some would say that is too high and you could be labeled pre-diabetic. Above 120 dl is considered diabetic. Lectins and Fibromyalgia. Lectins are an aggravating factor here. It often does not hit people too hard if they are young, but not always. These lectins have the potential to disrupt all sorts of things in the body including, but not restricted to, arthritis, eyesight, intestinal problems, inflamation, virus proliferation and chronic illness. This subject has been covered by Laying it on the line. Your question here might be since sugar affects my pancreous, HPA axis, and neuropathy and potentially the fundamental question of auto immunity too, what is one to do to fix this sugar/starch/lectin problem? The answer to this question has evaded millions of British and Americans diabetics sufferers, but it will not evade you because I will lay it on the line here. Even though the American and British Diabetics asociations have stated that there is I will stand against this view. I will do more than this, I will say that it is not only sugar. The three big starches are also factors in this story, which are wheat, rice and potato. Along with all other grains this would be no surprise to Three months? So let us assume you have switched away from grains, lectins, sugar, and do exercise and basically eat keto, which is protein and vegetables with lots of olive oil sprinkled on your daily veg or salad and or any other non grain oil, such as coconut oil, flaxseed, avacado and even ghee. How long will it take to see some results? Good question. If your decline was meteoric than I would guess that once you have alinged everything including your mind set, that of making your peace, and being present and thankful for what you still have, and that you have established a routine of when and what supplements you take, and you manage to keep your routine going for 3 months than you might look back and say, OK things are getting better. Six months! But if your decline took many many years, before your body finally gave in, than this might take a little bit longer. However, even in these cases it is possible to speed up the process. Personally I fit into this category, infact probably a bit of both. I could not believe I was weak and so I pushed myself into the ground to prove that it was true. Thus using up any resources left. Intermittent fasting. The way to speed up this process is with intermittent fasting. I have tried the 3 and 5 day fasts, but they did not agree with me. My re-feed became uncontrolled and it endded up making me ill with infections. So I decided to do a daily fast 6 days a week. This idea was proposed by Here he says that intermittent fasting will arrest diabeties. Detox can be scary. It can be really difficult to combine intermittent fasting with the keto diet along with exercise and protein and veg on a lectin free diet, which might include excluding dairy and all grains, but it would accelerate the healing process. But it would also accelerate the detoxing process which can be painful and even dangerous. So if you space out all these changes with a two to three week gap, and take magnesium 800mg, zinc 66mg, selenium 400mcg, and boron 30mg along with drinking a glass of water with half a teaspoon of Himalayan seasalt dissolved into it, because this allows more active molecules (toxins) to bind with the salt as it leaves the body, after they have been released into the blood stream, due to the other supplements and exercise. Find someone to help you through this. Really. This toxin problem is not nothing, it could easily be so uncomfortable that you think you are ill again or getting worse. There is a thing called keto flu, which is no small thing and cannot be rushed as it requires the birth or re-cycling of new mitochondria, there are also serious problems with the bromide detox, including swelling. Also this process of cutting carbs will have you climbing the walls if you were a carb junky, so do one change at a time and hold on. It will be worth every effort and sacrifice. You might need someone who knows what you are going through to help during the tough times. So get them onboard before you begin. Back to the top of the page.
