Download eBook “Atkins for Seizures”
Watching your loved one have seizures, or having them yourself, can be a very emotionally difficult thing to do. Our daughter struggled with over 100 seizures every day, even while heavily medicated, and we were scared of the medicine we were giving her. We felt helpless. We took it personally and we tried every treatment we could find.
For us, the solution was found through Johns Hopkins, Dr. Kossoff, and the Atkins Diet. In a short period of time, the Modified Atkins Diet allowed our daughter to go off all her medication and reduced her seizures to just 15 a day. Now she is seizure and medicine free. We sincerely hope our experience will help you.
The ebook is written in story format and details our experience with the Modified Atkins Diet for Seizures. It has been downloaded by hundreds of families, doctors and nutritionists around the world. It is not a “Do-It-Yourself Guide”, as we are not doctors and we strongly advise you observe this protocol under the direction of your doctor.
However, this book will dramatically shorten your learning curve. We spent many hours online, at the grocery story and on the phone with our doctors trying to figure out the answers to many worries I’m sure you have and you will find all of that in our story. This book is exactly what we wish we would have had when we started out!
