Schizophrenia, gluten, and low-carbohydrate, ketogenic diets: a case report and review of the literature
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2652467/
Found this on a keto subreddit.
"We report the unexpected resolution of longstanding schizophrenic symptoms after starting a low-carbohydrate, ketogenic diet. After a review of the literature, possible reasons for this include the metabolic consequences from the elimination of gluten from the diet and the modulation of the disease of schizophrenia at the cellular level."

Re: Schizophrenia & ketogenic diets
Interesting. I know some people who do great on keto. Me, I need carbs or I want to claw someone's face off. Overall, I think it makes sense to experiment with one's diet to find what works, physically and mentally.
