1. When an epileptic attack occurs, nerve excitability is increased, which may easily lead to alkalosis or hypocalcemia. A high-calcium diet should be used. Calcium can calm the central nervous system and inhibit the excitability of nerve cells. It is rich in calcium. Foods such as celery, potherb, rape, Chinese cabbage, shepherd's purse, mustard, red fruits, dried jujubes, fried almonds, fried pumpkin seeds, hazelnuts, pig kidneys, milk, cheese, duck eggs, egg yolks, small yellow croaker, field snails, fish floss , green clams, sea cucumbers, dried shrimps, sesame paste, etc.

2. Epilepsy patients often lack magnesium, especially most of them who require long-term drug treatment. Because the adult body contains 20-25g of magnesium, about half of which is concentrated in the bones. The magnesium in the bones cannot be absorbed. It is supplied to body cells. If magnesium is deficient, in addition to affecting the osteogenesis of bones, muscle tremors, mental stress, and twitching of the hands and feet can also occur. The convulsive state caused by magnesium deficiency is similar to that caused by calcium deficiency. When the patient injects magnesium salts into the muscle to restore the serum to the original magnesium level, the convulsive state can be stopped. Therefore, patients with epilepsy should provide more magnesium-rich foods such as corn, millet, soybeans, red beans, dried tofu, machine rice, green vegetables, celery, squid, beef liver, chicken, etc. Adult men need 350mg daily to maintain magnesium balance.

3. When epilepsy occurs repeatedly, such as in patients with hypertension, encephalopathy, eclampsia, etc., it sometimes causes cerebral edema and electrolyte metabolism disorders. Avoid overeating and limit water and sodium to prevent intracranial pressure. increase in height. The water intake should not exceed 1000ml per day, and the sodium salt should not exceed 3g per day.

4. Patients with traumatic epilepsy often have post-traumatic brain syndrome and a history of long-term use of sedatives, so they are prone to dehydration, anemia, leukopenia, malnutrition, etc. In severe cases, electrolyte metabolism disorders (high potassiumemia). Use a low-potassium diet, and the daily potassium intake should not exceed 3g. Use vegetables and fruits with low potassium content such as rapeseed, carrots, white radish, Tianjin radish, celery, pumpkin, tomato, eggplant, onion, cucumber, winter melon, loofah, zucchini, etc. Fruits such as pears, apples, grapes, Yantai pears, pineapples, etc. Grains such as rice, standard flour, etc., and other foods such as eggs, duck eggs, milk, fat and lean pork, pig heart, tongue (tongue) and other foods also contain low potassium.
