My cousin's child needed to be on this diet for a few years because of seizures. It was very hard to follow and needed a lot of preparation before going out to functions or events. Personally, I wouldn't try it except for an absolutely last resort. It's just really hard to follow and makes social functions (which often go with food) nearly impossible. But I wish you the best of luck. Please keep us updated on how it works for you. Who knows, I might eat my words and jump in on this if it turns out to work well.
