Guest guest Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 If she is having seizures, you may want to eliminate them for two or three weeks and see if there is any change. That's the only way to know that any food happens to be a trigger for your own unique kiddo! Patti strawberries Someone mentioned strawberries as a seizure trigger....anyone else found this? loves strawberries and has them several times a week. Guess I should eliminate them?

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 Pam, Strawberries are not a seizure trigger. I do remember someone mentioning recently that they have more carbs. We use strawberries every day (21g). I've actually found strawberries to be a fruit that we get more volume vs. other fruits (bananas, apples, etc.). Our daughter loves them too, esp. with her yogurt cream. Rhonda Someone mentioned strawberries as a seizure trigger....anyone else found this? loves strawberries and has them several times a week.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2003 Report Share Posted July 24, 2003 Strawberries are one of the few things Asha can't seem to eat on this diet. I know they are a trigger for allergies in susceptible children. So maybe they do something to their immune system that lowers the seizure threshold. Leita.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2003 Report Share Posted July 25, 2003 , From the posts, apparently strawberries can be a trigger to allergies. I just had never heard of them being a seizure trigger. I imagine that in the world of epilepsy we can't say any food or supplement is not a trigger for someone. :-( Rhonda Apparently they are a trigger for some kids.
