RE: anyone tried breakng the vicious cycle--Cindy

July 20, 2004

Cindy,

Patti's daughter has a history of a severe drawn out seizure about every 4-6

weeks. The ketogenic diet resolved this for about a year. For whatever

reasons the seizures came back during the second year on the diet. Patti

did a lot of reading on the brain/gut connection and decided to try the SCD

diet from Breaking the Vicious Cycle. She also weaned her daughter off

keto. For 6 months her seizure pattern improved but then for whatever

reason the old pattern came back. I don't know if she is strictly adhering

to the SCDiet at this time, but I do know that Patti has been careful about

not giving her daughter high carb foods and the foods that the SCDiet says

" no " to. She was sensitive about this while doing the keto diet.
