You probably have gut dysbiosis causing inflamation of your gut and inflamation leads to depression like symptoms. This doesn’t mean you have to eat keto all the time, but rather that you should take probiotics to restore your gut flora. This way, you can continue eating a balanced diet without allowing that specific bacteria to become overpopulated. The best for me was using Lactobacyllus subtilis HU-58 alongside low-fodmap diet. The low fodmap diet is a shorter period of 1 month, then it needs to continue with the RENEW diet for 3-6months to 1 year. This whole period needs to be supplimented with hu58.

Thank you I'll check that out. Tho, for me, it most likely began as a post-flu complication, so I don't have much hopes.

I had some gut bacteria issues and I think I was helped recently by using oregano oil and/or allicine (extract from garlic). Used both for a week, before had 2x antibiotics for suspected SIBO. I also used VivoMaxx 450 probiotics and sodium butyrate for 3 days so maybe it was it. All of these combined are cheaper than single curation with antibiotics so worth giving a shot in case of issues.

Thanks. Very interesting.

Do you know why HU 58 is so special?

You should try epilepsy keto, that is 80-90% of calories from fat, to get the max benefits.
