“Fourteen patients who stuck with the diet until the six-month mark chose to continue, even after the study ended-a testament to how effective the diet worked to treat their epilepsy,” said Dr Eric H. Kossoff, an assistant professor of neurology and pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
Kossoff said that the modified diet has opened up another therapeutic option for adults trying to decide between medication, surgery and electrical stimulation to treat intractable seizures.
The results are reported in the February issue of Epilepsia.
