Core Tip |
Many infants with epilepsy are refractory to current antiepileptic drugs, and ketogenic diet (KD) could help to moderate seizure frequency as an alternative treatment. A large number of reports have demonstrated that gut microbiota (GM) can affect children’s neurodevelopment. Concurrently, GM could be dramatically affected by diet. KD could rapidly alter GM and alleviate seizure frequency in infants with refractory epilepsy. The GM structure of epileptic infants - comprising large numbers of pathogens, such as Streptococcus - differed from that of healthy controls. After KD therapy, GM of epileptic patients changed significantly, with fewer pathogens and more beneficial bacteria. |
