Saw your comment about cortisol in the sleep thread...I deal with the same thing. Thanks for adding me to your friends.
Have a wonderful day!

Your story reassured me several months ago that this diet really could help ameliorate depression, and I do think it is currently doing my brain chemistry good. I wonder though, how long did it take before you felt it really had lifted, and did you doing anything besides the diet that you felt helped speed up the process? I mean, besides taking care of social and personal matters, were there any aides, such as uplifting books, music, therapy, etc.? I'm listening a bit to Eckhart Tolle these days, as others seem to like his work so much, but I don't know.
Have great days,
Nicolas
Cheers my friend!

I noticed you mentioned that 811rv keeps you seizure free.. I have a couple questions on this. My mother has suffered from seizures (usually just minor with the exception of the occasional grandmal seizure) for several years. She only last year gave in and started taking the meds the doctor prescribed which is making her not have them. We are still unsure of the root cause of her seizures.. possibly her past abusive relationship, stress or who knows.
I got her to do 811rv for a couple weeks, but her detox symptoms were too much for her. I am wondering if I were able to help her through those symptom times(financially since thats why she couldnt continue ) if you think that she would eventually be able to be seizure free without the dialanton(meds) that she is taking. She is all for natural. And still usually eats only fruits and vegetables, but she cooks them a lot of the time. I would love to believe that this would make the differnce.
So my questions are: How was your transition? What was your detox experience? Do you think that my mother could reap the same benefits if I helped her through the transition?
Thank-you so much in advance for any insight. I was thrilled to read your post, and I dearly want to help my mom. she would LOVE to be 811rv.. she is just scared that her body cant handle it (which is silly i know.. i really think its just the detox symptoms) and I think I can help show her..
Sincerely, Shauna
