I Just Came Back From Mexico. In Canada I Am In Remission Because Of Being On The Keto Diet....sugar And Carbs Make Me Flare.
A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

I didn't have any flares in Mexico, I ate sugar and carbs every day. I got home and tried to look up HS people in some Mexico cities and there don't seem to be any. I have always thought when I go to the Caribbean my HS is good, and I have always thought it was from the salt water? But now I'm wondering if it's the way they cook their food, I find it odd I can't find people from Mexico with HS?????? I got a flare the day after I returned, so back on the diet??? I am puzzled???

Yes I am totally aware that the same things will not work on all of us, but I also believe there is not enough money spent on research. My Dr is surprised keto has put me in remission and looks up his info, and tells me diet has nothing to do with HS, but I am proof and I do also know a couple other people on here that it works for too! I know it 's not the cure for everyone, but I feel for the people here that spend hundreds of dollars on Medical care and prescriptions, when Dr's guess at what will help and prescribe meds that they HOPE work, although no consistent proof that some of these meds will. Some also on here have new symptoms from the drugs prescribed that seem to last after they quit taking the meds! I feel the people on here can give better advice than most Doctors! Proof of that are on this site repetitively where people have been misdiagnosed BY DOCTORS. Those that don't have HS have no idea how devastating HS can be. I'm sure there are suicides related to HS! I hope somewhere they are doing research and close to answers!

Keto is the best for hs. I noticed when I stopped the carbs and fast I stopped having severe flare ups, the boils drain faster and a scale from 1to 10 the inflammation would be at 2or 3.i don't even need the humira injections anymore.its been 3 years.

@A myHSteam Member I am so glad that you had a chance to get away and have a wonderful vacation. I am certain that there are people in Mexico that have HS, they probably just don't talk about it some countries like we do.
On another note, I am loving my zero carb Ketogenic diet! I eat higher fats and protein and I am feeling great. My HS is not in remission yet, but better! I hope that you feel better soon. 🙏🏾❤️🙏🏾

Hey Bonbon do you order this Keto from somewhere or you make it yourself?
