High-fat, low-carb diet helps kids with epilepsy (Reuters) Posted on May 10th
In their study, Dr. Elizabeth G. Neal, from University
College London, and colleagues randomly assigned a group of
children who were having at least seven epileptic fits per week
despite anti-epileptic drug therapy, to a standard diet or a
ketogenic one, which is typically high in fats and very low in
carbohydrates.
