I am so sorry to hear about this Chelle! It is possible that keto could help, but he may have a parasite that is damaging his gut causing an inability to absorb nutrients.

I would recommend working with one of our health coaches to find the root cause and correct it https://drjockers.com/long-distance-coaching/

My husband has stage 3 adrenal fatigue, had contracted bilharzia as a child and hepatitis A about 15 years ago. He has some liver scarring which tests revealed around that time. For the past 5 years or so he has been losing muscle mass and looks way older than he actually is. He is under severe stress and anxiety is through the roof. His body weight has decreased by about 10 kgs over the past few years, but he has never been overweight or obese ever to begin with. So it’s more the loss of muscle mass that’s so terrifying. We do eat relatively healthily, more paleo diet and have been trying the gaps full diet too and avoid allergens like soy, dairy, wheat, gluten, yeast etc most of the time. We are both reactive to most foods we eat and intolerant to most supplements and have huge food sensitivities. This causes a lot of additional stress and anxiety as it feels as though no matter what we do, there is no real healing. We are self navigating at this stage as our medical aid exhausted by doctors only focusing on dealing with the symptoms and not the cause(s). We are tired of this vicious cycle of events and have done our own research and continue to try to deal or work out the causes. We have made far more progress over the past few years on our own wrt health but of course this is relentless and exhausting. Would the keto diet benefit My husband ? Any help or advice from you or the readers would be appreciated. Feeling terribly alone, desperate and overwhelmed at this stage. PLEASE HELP !!
