Research Notes on Diet Treatment for Epileptic Children


A new study completed in London, shows that a diet consisting of low carbohydrates and high fat content (ketogenic diet) can lower the frequency of seizures in severely epileptic children. Over 140 children that suffered from at least seven seizures a week were studied. Half of the children received the ketogenic diet, the other half continued their normal diet.
