Epilepsy
Research has demonstrated that epilepsy can be triggered by the imbalances and metabolic disturbances created by improper diet, in particular micronutrient deficiencies. This commonly occurs with a steady diet of starch sugars. In contrast, high biological value proteins, essential fatty acids, and micronutrients can both prevent and reduce the severity of epilepsy.
