Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Food & Seizures : Are you sure he/she didn't say "keto" diet? Please continue to see a neurologist and look into the work of David Pearlmutter, MD, a neurologist that writes/researches about diet and brain health. Peace and good health.
