Members of the Regional Epilepsy Service, within the department of neuropsychiatry, have developed a novel treatment intervention for adults with epilepsy that cannot be controlled with anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs). The modified ketogenic diet (MKD) service is the only NHS service in the UK offering this treatment for adults with poorly controlled epilepsy. Between 30-40% of people with epilepsy will not respond to AEDs. The alternative options are limited to brain surgery or neurostimulation. Using the MKD offers a non-surgical treatment to minimise the risks associated with poorly controlled epilepsy including unexpected death in epilepsy, serious injuries and repeated hospital admissions. The service offers an innovative, alternative treatment for refractory epilepsy that people are not able to access elsewhere in the UK. Service users undergo rigorous assessment and monitoring of their physical and mental health throughout the diet. #mexican diet pills phentermine #keto one gummies ingredients #you can keto gummies #what are the best keto gummies
