Epilepsy is the fourth most common neurological disorder behind migraine, stroke and Alzheimer’s. We know that 150,000 new persons annually surface with the symptoms of seizures and we know that 6 out of 10 persons do not respond to medications or treatments for their seizures. I know this personally. My son was one of them.
Today, 2 and half years later, I can smile knowing that we have sustained a happy, flourishing, 8 year old boy without seizures. From 2009 to 2011 we weren’t sure this was a possibility; even though we put every last momentum of effort (and trust me, we had to dig deep) toward hoping that it would become a reality. When my son was 3 he had his first seizure; then a second at the age of 4. At 4 ½ the seizures came in like a windfall: several grand mal seizures, absence seizures and drop seizures a day. We were stumped at how our son, who came into this world healthy and well developed, could be consumed by the symptoms called seizures. We sought “top” neurologists for over a year: put him on medications (with much resistance) the ketogenic diet (didn’t cure him), applied acupuncture, NAET, tested food sensitivities; nutritional balancing through a biochemist, Neurofield work, and even sought a Shaman.
He was diagnosed with Lennox Gateaux syndrome (after some consideration for Draves) that advised us that he would face cognitive decline the rest of his life. I tell you all this, because if you have a child or loved one that has seizures, or a seizure disorder; I want you to know I have been there, up front and personal. What we saw, day after day, was that our son’s brain was on fire.
It is my mission to share our story and the tools that we discovered that stopped his seizures. These tools are science-based, there is no voodoo. The rest of the story revolves around the whole body nutrition and biochemical approach that we used to rid my son of seizures. It involves the latest research suggesting that the approach we used is validated. I’m confident that this approach will help many many, more individuals that suffer from unexplained seizures and improve their outcome.
It is also my mission to post new research studies that are related to nutritional or lifestyle choices that impacted seizures. Please sign up, download, read and share with as many persons as you can find. We have to change how seizures are treated and supported. I can do this with your help.

Be well,
