Looking for help with Epilepsy

My son's girlfriend soon to be daughter-in-law suffers from epilepsy. Her doctors keep changing the medications but nothing seems to work. They gave her an option to have brain surgery but she is deathly afraid of getting it done. I am looking for some information on natural treatments and was wondering if anyone here has a site about this. I would like to get advice so I can help her.

Thanks for reading,

In some work I do for a company working on the extraction process for medical marijuana, I cam across this website:

the best place to contact is the Epilepsy Foundation for referrals

Hi Cathy,
Have you heard of the Ketogenic diet? If not, pull up some information and start exploring. There are some excellent sties, Keto Diet App, Ruled.me, Dr. Daniel Pompa, for example are great resources.

Keto is a diet very high in fat, moderate in protein and low in carbs. It was originally developed to help children with epilepsy who were not responsive to the medication available or whose parents wanted another alternative. The results were excellent. I am a chiropractor with a focus on functional nutritionist and often put my patients on this eating plan for a variety of conditions. Brain surgery or a lifetime of heavy medications are certainly things to be cautious of, and if she can experience changes by addressing her diet then I think that's a fantastic place to start.

As an aside, we have a small rescue dog that suffers from epilepsy. I've consistently added fish oil to his diet and his seizures have dramatically dropped. Several times when I was out of the fish oil (maybe a week or so at a time) his number of seizures would again rise. I've watched this pattern with him over the last 2 years. Again, I believe it's because of the beneficial effect of the extra dietary fat on the brain.

Best of luck to you,
Jennifer

That Ketogenic diet damage the liver and kidney

Actually that's not accurate, according to the research. You may be mixing ketosis up with ketoacidosis with is a very different (and a dangerous) situation. Completely unrelated.

Check out this post. This is actually related to cancer. But if you read the post, you will see that this has helped other problems as well. Just something to think about.

I would check Dr. Mercola's site to see if there is anything there.
www.mercola.com

This guy is very good he treats many un cured dieseses such as cancer etc. he is an arab received 3 phd from urobe countries for his knowledge and its organic no chemicals contact him or email him and explain exactly and i am sure he will be able to cure her.

Really sorry to hear about your future daughter-in-law's condition Cathy. Here is an article by Dr. Ray Sahelian that may be of help.

You might want to consult WebMD and see what the site has to say.

This might give you a head start

There is a lot of rubbish out there in pharmaceuticals.

The only thing I could suggest is Gingko.
Liquid extracted and not the dried leaf. Dried leaf loses potency.
