Roblox Founder's Family Experience Treating Bipolar with Keto

- Hear a family’s experience using a ketogenic diet to send bipolar disorder into remission. Roblox Founder and CEO David Baszucki and his wife, Jan Ellison Baszucki, share the story of how ketogenic metabolic therapy (aka ketogenic diet) resolved all bipolar symptoms for their son.
After four months on the diet, their son’s 5-year battle with bipolar disorder ended and his symptoms went into remission. While medications may have saved his life, nutritional ketosis gave him his mind back. Two years later, he is thriving, with zero signs of psychiatric illness.
David and Jan shared their story as part of the first Metabolic Psychiatry retreat in Santa Barbara in May, 2022. Their family philanthropy, Baszucki Group, has launched the Metabolic Mind initiative to provide education in metabolic psychiatry. The Baszucki Brain Research Fund supports clinical trials of metabolic interventions like nutritional ketosis / ketogenic diets for mental health.

It's so nice to know I'm not alone in this. Doctors treated it as if it were placebo. I've been on a strict ketogenic diet for three years. I had an unspecified mental disorder that caused me extreme irritability and rage bursts, with diagnosed major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety that wouldn't let me live a normal, healthy life. It is 95% in remission since the third week on the diet. I even get emotional sometimes over the fact that I'm free of the incapacitating symptoms. I am so grateful that I decided to lose weight the ketogenic route, it accidentally changed my life.
Thank you for sharing your story, and congrats on your incredible progress!
🙏 hopefully this diet will be the answer to my debilitating mental issues.
Praise The Most High!!
💞🙏💯💐🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊🪅🪅
This gives me do much hope for a loved one. Thank you!
Okay, comming back here a year later. I've been diagnosed with BPD and I'm on a journey of recovery. I still think the ketogenic diet is the foundation of the calmer state of mind which allows me to slowly reshape the way I relate to the world through DBT (mind you, mindfulness is a metabolic intervention precisely because it allows you back into a non-threatening reality - fight or flight hormones cease to actively induce chronic metabolic dysfunction).
Their story is so much like mine. I did the research bc I was desperate. Even educated my VA doctors who after doing their own research endorsed the diet for treatment of my bipolar. It works for me. And I can feel it. My brain feels it. My body feels it. I am so grateful I found it when I did
How is it going now?
Truly inspirational. This is day 8 for me on the ketogenic diet. I've been battling clinical depression for almost a decade. 3 years ago I tried the diet and was in complete shock when I felt most if not all the depressive symptoms go aways from day 7. I couldnt sustain it since I had too much on my plate (doing a masters degree on the way for a phd). 8 days ago I decided to give it another go. Iam really optimistic...but as Mrs. Baszucki said we tend to experience alot of false excitement before we reach a solution. Pray for me everyone.
@ferasdahalan6044 how are you doing now?
My energy and sleep really improve and I reduced my sleep medication as a result of that. However my interest in things I used to love was just not there. It only recently improved one I increased Lamictal again to 200mg from 100mg (I had reduced it before starting keto for different reasons). Clarity of mind and memory(one of the big reason for me starting keto) is still not there.@@ydnassukyaj9131
Prayers 🙏🙏🙏
@@ydnassukyaj9131 sorry for the late reply. I did the diet for 3 and half months and was very strict about it. I honestly was sad and a bit disapointed when i decided to stop. I didnt feel any of the mentioned benefits especially the ones I was hoping to improve in: mood and cognitive function. I though it was because I was not FAT adapted but later after giving it 3.5 months I had to accept the fact that that was not the issue. I had to accept the fact that the keto diet was not for me.
Im happy to help if you have any questions, ill try to keep my eye on the notifications so I dont take time in replying.
Steady as she goes, ups and downs in the first 4 weeks
Loved Dr Palmers book Brain Energy and so happy more research being done. Am off BP1 meds after 3 months of Keto diet. I thought my life was over until this diet. Thank you for your efforts and passion to educate and help people like me!
Thank you for your comment and for sharing your journey with us. Congrats on your amazing progress. Keep up the great work!
I had the honor and privilege to listen to this powerful speech in person, during the Metabolic Mind's first science retreat. Thank you Jan and David for sharing your story and supporting the field of metabolic psychiatry!
Devote the rest of her life to pursuing this... Thank u Jen
Thank you so much Jen, and thanks for sharing.I am the mother of 12 year-old daughter just being diagnosed of bipolar, and I felt so described in yourself when you explained your mental journey with your song. I will definitely try keto with her, thanks a lot for sharing, this video was really a blessing for me.All the best for your son and your lovely family.❤
This is so important, this should have millions of views. OMG!
I am thrilled to see this testimony to the benefits of low carb diets even in the mental health field. My endocrinologist gave me a food list for reactive hypoglycemia symptoms 15 years ago restricting sugars and starches. I was 52 years old then. His symptom list for hypoglycemia includes anxiety, panic attacks, insomnia, depression and nightmares. My symptoms included those plus nner shaking and a rapid heartbeat occasionally accompanied by almost passing out. I went to the ER once when this happened. My heart was fine. Thank God I found his diet. It is integral to my well being and functionality.
All psychiatrists should watch this talk ,and mention keto to people who may benefit from it.
treatment resistant bipolar means "we don't want to treat him any further."
A doctor who gives up is a doctor you don't want
Dear Jan, I cannot emphasize enough how meaningful and helpful it is to other parents that you have shared your story. It took great courage to stand at that podium, and great wisdom to share the details of your journey. Your words resonate deeply with thousands if not millions of parents in the world! Thank you.
Preach 🙏 In carnivore we trust 🥩 🍖 meat heals. Keto is good. Carnivore is fantastic
This is completely inspiring
Can you please get your son to do a power point presentation please? It would be helpful to hear from him with the exact dates, meds, how he felt, before he got sick, during illness and after, with photos short video clips too.
Basically I want an hour long documentary that he himself made 😊 Or post a link please if it already exists. And I really would like for you guys to also have visual aids for the next conference if it’s possible(like a power point with pictures)
Thank you!
how in the world this has only 7.7K views!!!
Thank you for promoting hope for those who suffer from mental illness and for those who love them! My family has experienced an unbelievably horrific experience from not getting help for my grandson's schizophrenia. I wish I had known about this hope sooner.
Beautiful story!!! Such an important nonprofit, and such an important science that everyone should know about it worldwide ✨🤩💛
Thank you for your work
Amazing stuff. So grateful you guys saw so much success and are sharing this with others.
Thank you❤
I am preparing to go on the Keto diet. I have suffered from bipolar 1 with phychotic features since 19 year of age I am now 56.
How’s it going?
Wow - what an amazing account...
So good to hear these stories getting shared more and more as time goes on. 💜
Is there more content coming up from this retreat?
Hi Lily. Thanks for your comment. There will be lots more content coming on this channel. A couple of videos will be from the retreat, and most will be new content on metabolic psychiatry including interviews with leading experts. Stay tuned for more!
@@metabolicmind Thank you for the reply! Really looking forward to seeing it, and keep up the good work, which will hopefully change what we know as psychiatry around the world!! ^^
Yes! See new videos that have been posted now.
@@jan_ellison_baszucki You guys are great!! 🤗
Fantastic
Thank you so much for sharing. My 24yo son has schizophrenia and I’m wondering if you know of any doctors in Australia (or online) who can help treat his condition with a keto diet while also monitoring his medications?
Please look at the directory at www.diagnosisdiet.com/directory. If you cant find anyone there, you can look for a dietitian or coach who may be able to help and coordinate care with a treating psychiatrist. You can try this site www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/doctors
❤❤❤
it is important to explain that all this tappers of medications was probably making feel
worse with withdrawal . i come off benzo and celexa and took me 4 tries . i felt phycotic coming off them. this medication are very addictive
Keto helped me with depression a lot at a time, the problem was it was not sustainable digestively (I could not process as much fat). If there would be some more reasonable therapy based on it, it would be awesome
You bring up a good point that everyone has different dietary likes and tolerances. Some people try eating a low carb diet and supplementing with exogenous ketones, although we need data to show if this is safe and effective.
