In the mid-1990s, the son of a Hollywood producer had a severe epilepsy that was well controlled thanks to a ketogenic diet. Abraham founded the Charlie Foundation to promote the ketogenic diet. It was promoted on NBC's "Dayline" program, and in 1997, the TV series "... First Do No Harm has this theme. The Charlie Foundation sponsored a multicenter academic study, the results of which were published in 1996, and scientists paid more attention to the ketogenic diet.
