The mental acuity she’d always relied on… seemed spongy, foggy somehow. If she couldn’t fix this, she could lose her job. Then what would […]
Kayla breathed a sigh of relief. A car moving into her lane spotted her car just in time and swerved away to avoid her. Gratitude filled her at the near miss. It could have been a horrible crash, but all was well. This holiday traffic was heavy. Everyone shopping for gifts and groceries, as well […]

Jenni locked the door, then tried the knob. It wouldn’t open. Then, she inserted the key to unlock it, opened the door and closed it again, locked it, and tried the knob. It seemed locked, but what if it wasn’t? She inserted the key and unlocked it, opened and closed the door again, and locked […]
Amanda screamed in pain, trembling… unable to move. The pain in her right leg was indescribable, more than she could bear. It seemed to spread to all of herself. Jillian had cantered by on her horse, but realized Amanda was no longer beside her, and turned around to find her. Then, she saw her on […]
We’ve looked at how your ketogenic diet transforms depression. But what about bipolar disorder, one of the most severe psychiatric conditions? Surely, an illness so complex can’t be treated with something so mild and routine as a change in diet? Sound absurd?
