One method of controlling epilepsy in children is to use a ketogenic diet which is based on high fats, adequate protein and low carbs. Have you heard of it before? It's new to me!
i have not, sounds complex
Sounds complicated to me too! The diet basically forces the body to burn fats than rather than the burning of carbohydrates. I'm sure parents of children with epilepsy are happy to try anything!
Id agree to that. It must be tough to be a parent having your child going through with that
I can't even imagine! There is even evidenced that adults with epilepsyu may benefit from the diet and a modified Atkins diet as well. Now, Atkins, I have heard of it and actually used before.
Oh well thats good news then. How was the diet when you used it?
I used Atkins for about 2 years and lost 40 pounds. It's also a low carbohydrate diet. I loved it and it worked well for me.
