Re: diarrhea as a side effect of the keto-diet
I am heterozygous for rs10156191 (that means only one mutated copy was passed down to me from a parent). One day, I made a breve with straight coconut cream for the first time.

Re: I need help with KETO, please
We need help with Keto, too! My wife is apoe4 positive (heterozygous). So we started the Mito diet (recommended by the Institute of Functional Medicine) a year ago.

Re: I need help with KETO, please
A more indepth discussion can be found in our wiki Ketosis and Ketogenic Diet . When it comes to fasting, a longer overnight fast is recommended for ApoE4s, 14-16 hours.

Or around 75% fat, 20% protein, and 5% carbs..is that right? 2) Then help me understand what mild keto is as far as carbs per day...

Does Julie Reynolds still take these 4 supps at bedtime??
I am listening to this 2017 interview. She said she takes these four at bedtime: Progesterone, melatonin, ashwagandha, Bacopa monnieri. Does she still take those? Anything else?
