"The ketogenic diet has been around for decades. It is a special diet where there's a high fat/protein- low/ carbohydrate ratio that produces what's called ketosis. Instead of circulating glucose through the blood, you circulate ketone bodies and these are anti-epileptic," says Dr. Philipps.
The ketogenic diet drew skepticism because it turns the food pyramid upside down. Ninety percent of the calories are fat, 7% are protein, and 3% are carbohydrate. Many studies find it sharply reduces or eliminates seizures - in particular in kids.
"The ketogenic diet can be used as early as infancy," says Dr. Philipps.

You might have heard the term "brain food" used to describe food that's good for you. Doctors at Mayo Clinic say there really is a diet that benefits the brain. But this diet is not for everybody. It's for kids who have epilepsy, and it's based on extremely high fats and very few carbs. More on how the ketogenic diet is helping some kids with epilepsy become seizure free (Mayo Clinic)

VIDEO: Epilepsy Awareness - Kaylee's story and what we do for her diet –
Published on Nov 11, 2012
This is a video about Kaylee's diet and the struggles that got us to this point. We talk a bit about what we have to do make a ketogenic meal for her and some of the trials balancing the meals day to day. It's a lot of work but clearly worth every minute since the diet has taken Kaylee from over 150 long seizures a day to around 5 very short seizures. We are still working to get Kaylee seizure free, because even one more seizure is still one too many.

VIDEO: Mike Dancer (Epilepsy Patient) on Healing Epilepsy with the Ketogenic Diet no dairy
Published on Apr 22, 2013
When Mike Dancer was 34 years old he was diagnosed with Epilepsy. Of course he was perfectly normal for the first 34 years of his life and he now recognizes that he was under chronic stress and had a very poor diet for most of his life.
Given medications and a death sentence if he didn't take them, Mike thought he didn't have a choice and suffered for years with adverse reactions to his sleep patterns, endocrine system and hormone imbalance and many other troubling side effects. After years of taking Epilepsy medications without any sign of healing, Mike weaned himself off the medications and started his own high fat and modified version of the Ketogenic diet.
After only a couple of weeks he felt much better and his seizures were almost immediately reduced in number, intensity and recovery time. Since then Mike entered a body building contest which clearly showed that along with working out, his high fat, low carbohydrate version of the standard ketogenic diet used for epilepsy patients does not add any fat to his body at all.
Mike describes his quality of life as immensely better now. His mantra for those diagnosed with Epilepsy: "You've got to get up and try, don't stay down there, don't stay down, get up and try."
