2:08 Potential side effects of classic keto
3:03 How to do the keto diet for epilepsy
7:15 Bulletproof your immune system (free course!)
Today, we’re going to talk about epilepsy and the ketogenic diet. In 1923 Dr. Russell Wilder noticed that a low-carb diet had the potential to reduce a person’s seizures by 50%. 15% of the group completely got rid of their seizures.
This actually started the classic ketogenic diet for epilepsy. Of course, the keto diet has since evolved into different ratios of fat, protein, and carbohydrates. The higher the ratio of fat you have to protein and carbs, the more you’ll be able to get into ketosis.
It’s not really known why the keto diet may help with seizures, but there are a few theories.
Theory #1: Keto improves the stability of synapses between neurons.
Theory #2: Ketones have anticonvulsant effects.
Theory #3 Keto decreases brain inflammation.
There are a few potential side effects a person could experience after going on the classic keto diet. I think this could be because the classic ketogenic diet focuses more on macros than it does on the quality of foods the person is eating.
If someone wanted to try doing the keto diet for epilepsy, they might want to tweak it a little bit to make it healthier. I would try to do organic, grass-fed, wild-caught, pasture-raised foods.
A few more tips to make the classic keto diet healthier:
1. Add intermittent fasting
2. Avoid vegetable oils
3. Consume more vegetables and salads (with olive oil is even better)
4. Take purified bile salts
5. Take whole food vitamins
6. Take electrolytes, including potassium citrate
7. Take sea salt (1-1.5 tsp.)

My 1 y.o. dog started having seizures (from Rosemary in his food, I believe), so I put him on a raw diet, which is meat, bones and organs. His seizures went away immediately, never to return. He lived to be 13. Rosemary is a neurotoxin, so I'm told. I was also told that before Dilantin, children with seizures were put on a keto diet and it worked.

I have been on Berg’s keto diet since my first nocturnal seizure 2 years ago. I lost 90 lb.s in the first 6 mo.s, but I kept having nocturnal seizures, averaging one every 6 weeks. I was also taking 66 mg of CBD at night. After the first year, I was on the verge of taking Lamictal for the first time, but I decided to up my CBD to 100 mg each night. BINGO. No seizures since then, nearly a year now.

The keto made it possible for me to lose the weight. I don’t think it really helped stop my seizures directly. The authentic, grown from the ground CBD is what gives me that deep neuronal recovery and repair. As far as transitioning from AEDs to only CBD, I really can not advise you at all. The only thought that comes to my mind is, “Start low, go slow.” Taper down the AEDs while taper up the CBD? Ask your doctor? I am not qualified to tell you how to do anything. I can only share my experiences. Yours will be different, I am sure. Best of luck.

Thankfully after being a fan of yours for over 3 years, i told my 10 year old child's dietician (for epilepsy) "No, i am not pouring rubbish veg/seed oils over my childs meals to increase her fats" - as she suggested. Not all dieticians are equal, a lot need re-educating! My child has been on the diet since Dec21. no reduction of seizures but we did wean her off one (out of 3) of her meds. Also, one of dietician's meal ideas was - normal pasta in tomato sauce with few peas (spoonful), pinch of grated cheese, couple of segments of tangerine and dollop of heavy cream!!!! needless to say there wasnt much of it - but totally nutrient deficient and certainly not filling. Thank You Dr Berg for educating me in this field and thus preventing a lot more problems :-) x

I want correct information about milk. Is milk good because I hear many people say that powdered milk is like flour. It is harmful and useless milk because it has dried out with heat. Its benefits are gone and I refrained from it and now I drink only liquid milk because it is good and I don’t know which milk is good now .

Off the topic, but do you guys in US eat poppy seeds? It is a great source of calcium. We grind them first and use a lot of them in cakes as a filling. I know cakes are not keto friendly. But I do them like twice a week mixed with mashed banana some cinamon and raw cacao powder. Adding aprox 9 teaspoons of grind poppy seeds. It is my cheat food or desert that I looove. Maybe you can try it istead of other deserts 😉

It really depends on the situation. In any case, best is start real slow and adding nutrients for at least a few weeks. Don't start fasting unless you first eat nutrients rich foods. Otherwise you would be malnourished and have the keto flu, etc. So best is to learn what to do first.
