Epilepsy

MD Cause: Unknown. According to the Epilepsy Foundation,“The human brain is the source of all human epilepsy.” Wow! Thank you for that groundbreaking news. Epilepsy is the 4th most common neurological disorder and effects people of all ages.

MD Rx:  Anticonvulsant medications, Benzodiazepines.

ND Cause: EFA Deficiencies, Mineral deficiencies, B-vitamin deficiencies, amino acid deficiencies.

Discussion: I do not know what the mechanism is here, but I do know that when you give people who are suffering from seizures the 90 essential nutrients with extra omega-3 essential fatty acids that the cure is often quick and remarkable. This is another perfect example of where research money needs to be spent. We see these things happening clinically all of the time, but the exact mechanisms are unclear. I suppose in this case it doesn’t really matter, because everybody needs all 90 essential nutrients anyway, but it would be useful to once and for all have a clear understanding of the mechanism of action of this therapeutic.
