Goodbye Pain, Hello Balance: The 2-Step Plan for Fibromyalgia and Inflammation

If you’ve ever followed a ketogenic diet, you’ve probably asked yourself:
“What happens after? How do I maintain the results without going back to square one?”

A brand-new scientific study offers an exciting answer – especially for people dealing with fibromyalgia, a chronic condition that affects muscles, sleep, digestion, and mood.

🧠 Why does nutrition matter in fibromyalgia?

Fibromyalgia causes chronic muscle pain, fatigue, bloating, anxiety, depression and more.
Typical medications don’t cure the root cause — they just manage symptoms temporarily.

But what if you could really improve your symptoms through food?

Italian researchers recently showed that a very-low-carb ketogenic diet (VLCKD) significantly improved symptoms in women with fibromyalgia — reducing pain, increasing energy, and improving sleep and mood.

🥗 The real game-changer: The LOGI Diet

Since the ketogenic diet is very restrictive and hard to maintain long-term, the researchers asked:
What if we switch to a more flexible, healthier diet after the keto phase?

That’s where the LOGI diet (Low Glycemic and Insulinemic Index) comes in — a Mediterranean-inspired way of eating that still keeps inflammation low.

What’s in a LOGI diet?

Lean proteins (fish, eggs, meat)
Lots of vegetables and good fats (olive oil, coconut oil)
Low-glycemic carbs (quinoa, legumes, brown rice)
No added sugars, gluten or processed foods
Protein-based breakfast
Moderate fruit, no alcohol, lots of water

📊 What did the study find?

Patients who started with the ketogenic diet, then switched to LOGI, kept their improvements: pain stayed low, mood and energy stayed high.
Those who followed only the LOGI diet saw some improvement, but much more modest.

Metabolomic tests confirmed:
✅ Less inflammation
✅ Better gut health
✅ More balanced neurotransmitters
✅ Lower levels of pain-related molecules
