Fibromyalgia: can be treated with the Oloproteic Diet

Finally, the light at the end of the tunnel.

A new study on fibromyalgia patients, conducted by the University of Salerno and the Moscati Hospital of Avellino, confirms our clinical observations and therapeutic success on over 5000 patients.

Fibromyalgia can be treated with a ketogenic nutritional protocol and a series of food supplements. We have named this protocol the OLOPROTEIC DIET.

Castaldo Nutritional Method

The Oloproteic Diet.

THE OLOPROTEIC DIET, included as the spearhead of the Castaldo nutritional method, aims to be an effective and lasting answer for resetting metabolism, shaping the silhouette, and changing incorrect dietary and lifestyle habits.

It is a Therapeutic Ketogenic Diet successfully applied directly by Prof. Castaldo to over 30,000 patients, but if we also consider the applications of this diet model by the thousands of students that Prof. Castaldo has trained over the last 20 years, we reach hundreds of thousands of patients.

The Oloproteic Diet has been perfected over the years and is presented in its current version in the book. It is a strictly low-carbohydrate, normoproteic diet, with lipid quantities differentiated according to patient characteristics, using selected foods and natural and nutraceutical supplements that guarantee its safety and efficacy.

The Oloproteic Diet represents the holistic approach to the person: a therapeutic protocol for psychic balance and mitochondrial energy, for detoxification and drainage of the body, slowing down aging, implementing immunity, improving intestinal functions, protecting muscle mass, destroying excess fat, fighting insulin resistance and all associated metabolic, inflammatory, neurological, gynecological, dermatological, oncological, and rheumatological pathologies.

The Oloproteic Diet, together with the other diets of the Castaldo Nutritional Method, is prescribed in the "OLOPROTEIC DIET VIRTUAL NUTRITIONAL CLINIC", a multilingual computerized platform for online nutritional consultations, whose director is Professor Castaldo, assisted by dozens of nutritionists. For several years, his method has been taught at the University of Salerno, the first university in Europe to train medical nutritionists in the field of ketogenic diets, where Professor Castaldo, together with Professor Rastrelli, an academic expert in supplements and nutraceuticals at the University of Salerno, is the director of the university specialization course NUTRIKETO UNISA.

How the virtual clinic works

MEMORANDUM REGARDING THE METHODS OF PROVIDING MEDICAL-NUTRITIONAL SERVICES

OLOPROTEIC DIET VIRTUAL CLINIC assists patients from all over the world daily, offering care and nutritional advice on its virtual platform.

Prof. Dr. Giuseppe Castaldo and his team of nutritionists take care of the patient with accuracy, attention, and precision both during the examination and during the implementation of nutritional therapy.

THE NUTRITIONAL CONSULTATIONS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE ON THE PLATFORM ARE OF TWO TYPES:

FIRST CONSULTATION, i.e., the type of CONSULTATION chosen by the patient who is examined for the first time by Prof. Castaldo and his team of nutritionists. The patient completes the first consultation form and receives the diet and supplementary therapy. Furthermore, the duration of the first phase of the diet is established, which will generally be 45-60 days. This CONSULTATION currently costs 149.99 euros.
CONTROL CONSULTATION (CHECK-UP): THIS EXAMINATION CAN ONLY BE PURCHASED BY PATIENTS WHO HAVE PREVIOUSLY UNDERGONE THE FIRST EXAMINATION. The patient completes the control form and updates their medical record with current nutritional and symptomatic parameters. They will also attach any new diagnostic tests requested by the nutritionist. The duration of this phase is usually 30 days or multiples of 30. This CONSULTATION currently costs 99.99 euros.

How does the consultation take place?

Once the patient has purchased the examination, they will complete a medical history form and a nutritional evaluation form on the platform.

In the detailed medical history form, mandatorily following the appropriate questionnaire and providing the due answer for each question, they will successively complete the family history, nutritional and lifestyle history, and nutritional history.

Subsequently, the patient will report all their previous pathologies, carefully drafting the pathological history so that Professor Castaldo and the responsible nutritionist can develop a nutritional therapy to deal with the various reported pathologies.

After this stage, the patient will scrupulously complete the nutritional assessment sheet, recording all nutritional parameters according to the indications provided by the IT platform. Furthermore, it is important that the patient attaches a series of diagnostic exams: these are laboratory tests, electrocardiogram, abdominal ultrasound, and possibly reports of specialist exams related to the pathologies reported in the history. In addition, they will send a complete and documented list of all medications or supplements taken at the time of the visit. Finally, after completing the informed consent and authorization for data processing, they will send the forms to the Nutritional Platform to be evaluated by the responsible nutritionist and Professor Castaldo.

Prof. Castaldo, together with the responsible nutritionist, will examine the history data reported by the patient, evaluate the attached diagnostic exams, and draw up the personalized nutritional plan, prescribing the diet and supplements necessary to implement the patient's health status. This plan will be sent to the patient within approximately 72 hours of submitting the history dossier. The nutritionist will foresee the duration of the prescribed dietary step, and throughout its duration, the patient will be followed and supported free of charge via a messaging service, with a response expected within 12 hours. It should be noted that this function can be deactivated at the end of the step if the monitoring visit is not purchased. For greater accuracy of the nutritional diagnosis, it is always advisable that all patients attach laboratory tests, electrocardiogram, and abdominal ultrasound carried out recently and, in any case, no more than one year ago in case of apparent well-being, while in case of major pathologies, it is advisable that the examinations be recent or carried out at the same time as purchasing the consultation.

Priority laboratory tests for our nutrition program are divided into:

Basic laboratory tests that all patients should attach, i.e., urinalysis, blood glucose, insulinemia, azotemia (BUN), creatinine, GOT transaminases, GPT transaminases, gamma GT, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, blood count, vitamin D.
Important supplementary laboratory tests for patients with cardiovascular, renal, or metabolic diseases, for example, eGFR, uricemia, C-Peptide, glycated hemoglobin (only in case of diabetes), albuminemia, homocysteinemia, sodium, potassium, calcium, TSH, FT3, FT4, INR, and any other tests that have been requested by the attending physician for in-depth diagnosis of the patient's pathology.

A patient in an apparent state of health who attaches old exams or does not attach them at all will still have to declare responsibly on the form that their exams have always been normal to benefit from the nutritional program.

The electrocardiogram must be attached by all patients. Patients with cardiovascular pathologies must additionally attach the cardiological consultation and, if necessary, other cardiovascular diagnostic exams performed, such as: echocardiogram, stress test, dynamic Holter, blood pressure Holter, TSA Doppler ultrasound, etc., if these exams have presented altered values in the past. A patient in an apparent state of health who attaches an old ECG or does not attach an ECG at all will still have to declare responsibly on the form that their cardiovascular diagnostic tests have always been normal, to benefit from the nutritional program. An abdominal ultrasound is another examination that all patients should attach. This exam must be attached mandatorily for patients with medium or severe steatosis, gallstones, or kidney stones.

A patient in an apparent state of health who attaches an old abdominal ultrasound or who does not attach it at all will still have to declare responsibly on the form that their abdominal diagnostic exams have always been normal, to be able to benefit from the nutritional program.
