I lc-d for almost 2 years, mostly on induction. I am bi polar and I think that I have had great results with lc. I feel much better when I eat lc and the bp symptoms did not increase, in fact, they decreased. so I say, yeah, try it.

Hey, I read your thread on Relacore and that other thing forget what it is, started taking the Relacore. I feel better since taking it, but I think it's just coincidence, but I was wondering if it would also help with bipolar, since it has ingredients that help with stress and mood.

It has been quite a while since the last post here, but I read nrgquest's post regarding relacore and I wanted to chime in with my results. I am bipolar and have fibromyalgia and arthritis. I have been obese since childhood so any time I can reduce my weight is a bonus. Psych meds notoriously cause an increase in appetite and if one already has eating issues.. it means weight gain, for sure. I take lamictal and seroquel which have been really good for me as far as helping me to be stable and sleep well. Recently I read a post at another slot of this forum on Relacore, so I figured I would try it (lord knows I have tried every gimmick and diet that came down the pike in the last 40 years). I have to say that the Relacore is fantastic for me. It has helped me feel better physically and emotionally, be more regular and the scale is moving a bit faster for me. Because of my age and high pain level (knees and hips are SHOT from being obese for decades) I cannot exercise very much... even walking is agonizing... so the weight loss even on Atkins is always very slow for me... but with Relacore (and changing nothing else) the scale is moving and I never go a week without losing at least a pound. In the past nothing was more heartbreaking to me than being perfect on the diet and losing NOTHING for a week or 2, then a little budge on the scale. Now I am seeing results and feeling SO much better. I hope the Relacore keeps working long term, because it really is a blessing for me at the moment.
