"Klenow"
I've heard a neurologist say that even a small break from the ketogenic
diet
can break its anticonvulsant effects. Something like a kid sneaking a
cookie could break the effect. I don't know if this is just from some
anecdotal reports or if this is something that's well known.
The information that I have does not support that statement. As a matter of
fact a ketogenic diet is not a permanent way of eating for young children
(1-10) with epilepsy. After being seizure free for 2 years they are weaned
back to a normal diet.
