When you receive a diagnosis of a rare disease for which there is no medicine to make it disappear, you feel like you're locked in a dark room. But when you're told that there's a therapy that can mitigate the effects of the disease, that's when the light returns...

There are so many things we would like to share about the ketogenic diet. Monica has been on this diet since 2015, and much has changed - both in terms of meal preparation with new products on the market and in managing everyday life or special occasions. Monica has always been a cheerful and positive person.

I am Francesca, Angelica's mother. Angelica is 12 years old, and she suffers from a chronic illness. In 2021, after unsuccessful therapies, we introduced the ketogenic diet. It was not an easy path, but in the end, this ketogenic diet improved her health and allowed her to return to dancing.

BBQ, garden parties, and seasonal cuisine - that's what summer means to me. But how can we participate while on the ketogenic diet? I'm sure you're familiar with the situation when a big or small celebration is coming up, and you're wondering, 'What can I cook for myself without drawing too much attention? Can I perhaps modify the original recipe for me?'

In this blog, Nina delves into the topic of sugar in a ketogenic diet. What pay attention to, how to replace sugar, and how she bake and cooks sugar-free without giving up on delicious treats. 

Who am I - Who are we?
Hello, my name is Elisabeth. I am four years old and live with my family in Upper Bavaria. I am a happy, fun-loving and inquisitive girl. Unfortunately, I have a handicap. I have what is called "drug resistant epilepsy".

Antonia has loved attending kindergarten since her first birthday. We started the ketogenic diet when she was two and a half years old. For the diet to be successful, it is extremely important that everyone involved is sufficiently informed and that the circumstances allow it to be carried out at all.

It was an excellent fit, the birthday fell on a Friday and we invited godfathers and friends.

I finally got the travel bug again after two long Covid years and booked a trip to the south. My destination was Porto and the anticipation was great. For me, traveling doesn't just mean choosing a destination and planning activities, for me it means thinking about what food I need to take with me, what I can get locally or do I need to have some sent to the hotel from Kanso in time.

Since we live very close to the mountains, we also have a very long winter in our region.  So it is not unusual that the first really warm spring days begin only in mid-April. All the more, after this time, the first beautiful days also slowly bring the anticipation of fresh regional fruits and vegetables. Of course, the beginning of the strawberry season is the introductory highlight.

Hello dear ones!

Today I would like to give you a little insight into how I integrate the ketogenic diet into my professional everyday life. I work as a speech therapist at a special school. Since my workday is tightly scheduled due to therapies, the necessary documentation and the cooperation with my colleagues, I hardly have time to prepare my food on site.

Every family probably has its own rituals for Mother's Day. In the past, it was our custom for the children to surprise and spoil me with something delicious. Preferably a cake for breakfast.

In this report, Susanne tells us how she found the ketogenic diet in adulthood.
