Benefits of a Ketogenic Diet For Fibromyalgia
The Keto diet can also control blood sugar and help those affected by epilepsy
Controls blood sugar levels
Due to the limited intake of carbs, the risk of having Type 2 diabetes, commonly called lifestyle diabetes, is significantly lowered. This disease is caused by constantly having high levels of glucose beyond the recommended daily intake. This would result in overworked beta cells or insulin-producing cells, which then would cause them to have little to no insulin production. The keto diet aids greatly in controlling blood sugar levels.
Benefits people affected by epilepsy
For epileptic patients, a ketogenic diet is an anticonvulsant therapy. This diet is already established in helping with the symptoms of epilepsy since the 1900s. It is a nutritional alternative to patients who don’t respond to the conventional epilepsy treatment.
