Key Points
Patients with major depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia improved substantially on a ketogenic diet. The ketogenic diet was found to be safe, well tolerated by most patients, and feasible to administer in a hospital setting.
Body weight, blood pressure, blood glucose, triglycerides, and liver enzymes improved considerably on a ketogenic diet.
Sixty-four percent of patients were discharged from the hospital on less psychiatric medication.

Serious mental illness improves on any diet, I’m sure.
As to whether seriously mentally ill people are drawn to the Ketogenic diet, I’m not sure. Could be.

eat good fats- especially butter and coconut oil.
do not use commercial vegetable oils
Meat and eggs and fruits and veggies and cheeses. NOTHING ELSE
Do this religiously (no WHEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) for one month and you’ll be amazed at the results.
Also jello- if you are starting to get joint pain.

Keto diet was first used in the early 20th century as an epilepsy treatment, so not surprised.
