The health update on Brian’s lupus

It appears that Briana has found some improvement in her lupus and there has been some relief. This was revealed by her husband Ryan Culberson who gave an update about his wife’s health on his Instagram.

The couple believes that it is the keto diet that has brought about a positive change in her. They feel that it has decreased her complications and inflammation due to the disease. Ryan wrote:

Briana put in her comments to this post. She wrote that her lupus complications are very much down and her lupus flares which can include lupus flares, which can include fever, painful or swollen joints, fatigue, rashes, or sores or ulcers in the mouth or nose are less. Briana wrote:

“I have lupus and I was having much more lupus complications when eating badly,”

She continued:

“Since starting Keto I haven’t been admitted to the hospital or had a lupus flare, which means I haven’t had to be put on steroids.”

She continued:

“But I just have to know that her husband adores and loves her, that she’s in good hands. She works at the hospital that she goes to, so she gets excellent care. I just have to put it in God’s hands.”

Vicki resides in Orange County and Briana is now in North Carolina with her husband.

Keto diet and expert views

The keto diet is a favorite with celebrities and is recommended by some nutritionists but doctors are concerned about its unwarranted use in indications for which there are limited studies. They are also worried because of the high level of fats which are used in such diets. The Keto diet started, as, a, treatment for epilepsy in children and is now used in several other conditions including for weight loss. The Keto diet should not be started without the consultation of a qualified doctor and under his or her supervision.
