Hi Linda – I strongly recommend Dr, Nadir Ali – He is a cardiologist and will do consults by Zoom. He works with The Fasting Method and Dr. Jason Fung. You can see his videos about cholesterol on You Tube. https://alicardiology.com/

The best resources for using the ketogenic diet as a treatment for serious brain disorders are the Charlie Foundation (www.charliefoundation.org), Mathew’s Friends (www.mathewsfriends.org), or the book, Ketogenic Diet Therapies for Epilepsy and Other Conditions, by Kossoff et al. https://www.amazon.com/Ketogenic-Therapies-Epilepsy-Conditions-Seventh-ebook/dp/B08LPCYPK1/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=kossoff&qid=1622797871&s=digital-text&sr=1-2

My son was diagnosed with BP1 three years ago. As a result of the medications he has gained considerable weight which impacted many aspects of his physical and emotional health. His doctor is working with him to adjust the medications but he is very keen to be on the keto diet and/or intermittent fasting to help with weight loss in particular, but ideally also benefiting his management of his mental health. Unfortunately he is skeptical of working with dietitians or coaches or doctors on this. However he would benefit from a guide or book or any other resource that you can recommend for him to develop and practice a keto diet/intermittent fasting effectively. Thank you!

In reply to Linda Rosenblatt. My pleasure! Hopefully with your very specific list of requests you can pre-screen. It is so rewarding to see the numbers of practioners grow so more of us can find a local provider!

In reply to Linda Rosenblatt. I’m afraid I’m unfamiliar with clinicians in your area, but here’s an overview of the over 20 directories of low-carb professionals Low-carb doctors near me. The largest, the Society of Metabolic Health Practitioners, has over 70 practitioners in California.

I’m in San Luis Obispo, Ca. Do you know a knowlegable Doctor in my are that understand how to read the blood lipid fractionation? I’m on the second Doctor and he just doesn’t understand Keto and good LDLs. Once again I’m told to immediately go on statin medication. I have insurance but my next step is to pay a Doctor on telepromt 1400 for 90 mins. It would be nice to use my insurance to visit a Doctor near me, even 2 hours away.
