Unfortunately, you likely won't be able to fit it in with a normal diet--it's very high fat and very low carb. But, if you are miserable and preventative meds are not working (or don't want to try meds), it's worth a shot. Adults generally have a low compliance rate with it because it's strict and difficult to maintain, but it calms the brain down (thus, why it works in epilepsy) and if it's going to work, does so quickly and well.
