I’m a follower of your powerful articles. I’m currently on two interesting drugs. I take high blood pressure tablets and prostate brands capsules. Do I qualify to any of the intermittent fastings?

In reply to Mary. Hello Mary, most medications are fine but some (such as corticosteroids) will impact your blood sugar and ketones but the only way you know for sure is if you test your blood glucose and blood ketones both pre and about 30-60 minutes after taking the medication.

Very sorry to hear about these issues. I would recommend finding a functional health practitioner to get a thorough evaluation and a customized plan: https://drjockers.com/functional-nutrition-tips-to-find-a-great-health-coach/

I am a big fan of intermittent fasting. I’ve always had one question I could not find the answer to!

I take morning medication. Does this change anything? Do I stay in Ketosis?

Hi Dr Jockers,
This is a very well explained article! I am particularly interested as my Granddaughter has had many brain surgeries,(after suffering from a stroke at 3 days old,an emergency c-section at 34 weeks,then a VP shunt for hydrocephalus.She was the size of a 30 week foetus,so small for dates as well)
Current Medications : cloBAZam 10 mg tablet, Take 15 mg (ONE AND A HALF tablets) by mouth TWICE a day,
lacosamide 100 mg tablet, Take 100 mg (ONE tablet) by mouth TWICE a day,
lacosamide 200 mg tablet, Take 200 mg (ONE tablet) by mouth TWICE a day,
midazolam 5 mg/mL injection, Apply 5 mg (1 mL) into the nostril(s) up to TWICE a day when required for seizures,

Lily has previously been on levetiracetam, oxcarbazepine, valproate, carbamazepine and perampanel.
She also has Dilantin sod capsules 100mg x10,when she is able, after a tonic clonic at home, to try to prevent seizure clusters.

Surgical History
25/08/2015 LOBECTOMY (Right) temporal and occipital lobectomy
25/08/2015 REMOVAL OF VENTRICULOATRIAL SHUNT (Right) proximal shunt removed – fractured in neck
11/04/2017 CORTICECTOMY (Right) corticectomy of right middle and inferior frontal gyri
11/04/2017 REMOVAL OF VENTRICULOPERITONEAL SHUNT (Right) has residual in chest wall and abdomen
15/12/2020 IMPLANTATION OF INTRACRANIAL ELECTRODES (Right) frontal and insula lobes
22/12/2020 CORTICECTOMY (Right) corticectomy and disconnection of residual right frontal and anterior insula cortex
15/06/2021 COMPLETION OF TEMPORAL PARIETAL OCCIPITAL DISCONNECTION (Right)
She had a Sentiva vagus nerve implant in October 2021.Still not seizure free,which is just heartbreaking after all these invasive surgeries.
A hard life for a 17 year old,no normal activities can be undertaken,and that is so unfair,Are there any modalities that you consider would be beneficial?
Regards,
Annie

She then went on to have a Sentiva Vagus Nerve Implant last October 2021.Still not totally seizure free,and she still takes three seizure medications. I do make Magnesium Jellies(using Calmful sleep
chamomile and dandelion teas, and lemon juice,and also add some Taurine powder,after reading of the benefits for the nervous system,along with Gelatine.I make bone broth in the Instant pot,and she eats well.Is there anything else that is beneficial,keeping in mind she has hominous hemianopia,after the hemisphectomy.She takes frisium,Vimpat

Hi Dr J, loving your very helpful articles, especially about brain regeneration for my son who had a stroke. However, he also has an artificial heart valve and is on warfarin (blood thinners) so a whole lot of the anti-inflammatory foods and helpful supplements he cannot take as they interfere with the blood thinner meds (eg. magnesium, green tea, avocados, all green leafy veg in fact, and many others). Any advice for him?

In reply to Nora. Unfortunately, Hungry has strict rules with shipping supplements into the country and we are unable to ensure that products will get to the customer. So we are unable to ship there.

Hi, I’m interested in the Inflam Defense pills, but you don’t ship to Hungary. May I ask, why?

All the best: Nora
