Patients should eat less foods that are easy to cause bloating and constipation, such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, onions and radishes. And eat more laxative foods, such as bananas and honey. Those who are chronically ill or weak, such as millet, sesame, jujube, Euryale ferox, black bean, yam, lotus seed, jujube, longan, mung bean, almond and walnut kernel, can be supplemented appropriately. Medical research has found that normal brain cells contain phosphatase, while epileptic brain is seriously lacking, and bean sprouts are rich in phosphatase. Therefore, epilepsy patients often eat bean sprouts to relieve symptoms.
Epilepsy patients, such as drinking too much water or taking too much salt, will promote seizures. Therefore, the diet of epileptic patients should be low in salt and water. At the same time, avoid spicy food such as pepper, raw onion, garlic, pepper and tobacco and alcohol, otherwise it will cause disease. Treating epilepsy with medicated diet is a characteristic of traditional medicine. Clinically, this disease can be divided into two types: excessive wind phlegm and deficiency of qi and blood.
