Researchers are realizing that a high-fat, low-carb diet can be beneficial for people who have epilepsy.
High-Fat, Low-Carb Diet May Help With Tough-to-Treat EpilepsyA review of five studies found that a ketogenic, or modified Atkins diet, that focuses on foods like bacon, eggs, heavy cream, butter, fish and green vegetables, could help reduce seizures in adults whose condition doesn't improve with medication.
My take on this is that if a high-fat, low-carb diet can help the difficult-to-treat cases, imagine what it could do with easy-to-treat cases.
And looking at this from another angle, is there anyone in the world who will not benefit from a high-fat, low-carb diet? Now I realize that avoiding excessive fat during the early stages of recovery from MC can help to reduce symptoms, but IMO as soon as our gut begins to heal enough to where we can digest more fat, we tend to benefit if we take advantage of that.
This fits right in with my opinion that a high-fat, low-carb diet is beneficial for preventing/treating Alzheimer's disease and dementia from all causes, multiple sclerosis, and other demyelinating diseases, because it helps to prevent the myelin sheaths from dessicating. If the myelin sheaths are allowed to dry out, then the nerve fibers that they are there to protect, will die.
