“It can put your body into states of chronic inflammation in general,” Registered Dietician Brigitte Zeitlin tells The Post of Jameson’s yo-yo keto lifestyle.

Jenna Jameson’s keto lifestyle may have worsened her Guillain-Barré symptoms, according to a registered dietitian.
While the former porn star remains hospitalized as she recovers from the rare autoimmune disorder, Brigitte Zeitlin told The Post that living on a mostly high-fat, low-carb diet as Jameson is wont to do could have played a role in her severe symptoms that left her unable to walk.
“I do think it does play a role in how severe her symptoms are because she is likely undernourished given a severe keto diet,” Zeitlin said. “If that is still the same type of keto she was following, yes, she would be undernourished.”
The most common cause of Guillain-Barré is a food-borne bacterium called campylobacter, which is found in undercooked poultry. Given that meat and poultry are a large part of Jameson’s keto lifestyle, the BZ Nutrition founder said it could have been what caused the former porn star’s infection.
