• Seeds and walnuts: Walnuts are the good source of good fat which can help whereas seeds like pumpkin seed can provide an efficient quantity of manganese in the body that makes it a perfect food for the management of the disease named epilepsy.
• Food with Vitamin E and B-6: The people suffering from this disease have generally a deficiency of the vitamins. Vitamin-E increases antioxidants abilities whereas the Vitamin B-6 is known as a treatment for pyridoxine-dependent seizures (a type of epilepsy).
• Meat and Seafood: They are rich sources of protein and other nutrients that support or strengthen the immune system. This type of diet treatment is known as a ketogenic diet. A ketogenic diet can help reduce or eliminate seizures completely.
• Coconut butter and oil: It is also a part of the ketogenic diet. It is high in MCT fats which are considered a good cure for this disease. This butter is not only rich in fat but also rich in fibre and potassium. Go for this other than saturated fat from dairy products.
• Fruits and vegetables: They provide a rich amount of antioxidants and that defends the body from diseases. Eat colourful berries as much as possible. This includes berries, cherries, spinach, tomatoes, kale, and broccoli. Adding these in the diet can really be helpful.
