Brain activity, development, metabolism Brain Fuels: Anticonvulsant action of the ketogenig diet

Saturday

Anticonvulsant action of the ketogenig diet


HYPOTHESES:


Ketogenic diet reduces seizures by:


a) promoting inhibitory action of GABA

b) reducing cellular consequences of energy deficiency by supplying an alternative and 40 % more efficient fuel

c) eliminating damaging consequences of excessive glycolysis


Question: what does work in this case -- ketone bodies or glycolysis exclusion?
