Default Hi Everyone!

Hi everyone! I'm glad to now be part of this forum, since I've closed my Facebook account and am finally done with them.

I am following the low carb eating principles in the wonderful book The Alzheimer's Antidote by Amy Berger. My grandma had Alzheimers and almost burned down the kitchen, so I decided to do everything in my power to prevent that awful disease. And if I lose this weight, all the better!

Glad to meet you all.

Welcome LittleElla. Dementia struck both my parents, so I know how strong the motivation to try anything to avoid it is. The Amy Berger book is great, isn't it. Best wishes for your low carb life.

Welcome Ella,
Amy's book is great! she occasionally pops in here if there is activity from links. Her blog is good to follow.

Another author you might enjoy who focuses on Brain Health is Dr Georgia Edes. Here's one simple article on same topic. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/...asier-you-think
http://www.diagnosisdiet.com/micron...-mental-health/

Look around the many sub-forums, there are buddy groups here if FB was providing you with group support.

All the best,

Morning Little Ella, welcome to the forum, you have found a great place for support, take your time, look around and read, read and then read some more lol...

It might be worth your while setting up your own Journal, it is a safe place to vent, to have visits from other members and just track your progress.

Best of luck to ya, please drop by my Journal sometime, I love company. ttys
