Be Careful What You Eat

It is estimated that 1 in every 100 people have epilepsy. With epilepsy it is very important to be aware of your diet. There are food you should eat and others that you should not. There are quite a number of foods linked to increased epileptic episodes and seizures. Foods to avoid include :

• white flour. The process of making wheat to white flour renders it nutritionally empty White bread and rice - convert rapidly to sugar and spikes insulin levels. Too much white flour and refined grains can lead to diabetes, heart disease, obesity, gluten intolerance and vitamin deficiencies 
• "Health" Foods and Snacks are not always healthy for you Make sure they are not health food imposters where the package looks appealing and healthy but reading the fine print will find that is not as healthy as you thought it may be Some breakfast cereals advertise as good source of fiber, vitamins and minerals. Don't just take it at face value instead read the label find out what is in it as well as what it offers. 

Read, see whats out there, help bring awareness to what you want to know. You never know there may be someone else needing the same information
