  1. Hi I just wanted some information regarding the kito diet and what oil to give my daughter had her first seizure in 2021 and she had a major in July 2024 I didn’t know what to do please help

  2. I have been suffering from seizures since the age of 12. I have what’s called Catamenial Epilepsy, meaning they strictly occur when I ovulate or menstruate. I have been on countless AED’s with limited success, until I decided last year that I was done and wanted to try something more natural and with fewer side effects. I began taking magnesium supplements sometime in the fall last year and my seizures became so short that I could actually function fairly well immediately following them. That was until June 19th 2024 when I had four fairly major seizures in one day and another the next day. I discovered intermittent fasting and bulletproof coffee with MCT oil as a possible solution just last week. I’m due to start my next period within a week, so I’m not sure if my body will have enough time before then to stop having the seizures, but I’m willing to give it a try! I’m considering transitioning to either carnivore or keto (leaning towards carnivore) very soon, but am going to do a little more research into both to see which one would work best for my issues (epilepsy, end-stage osteoarthritis of the SI joints, and lifelong IBS-C).

    Thank you for the wonderful information! You and Dr. Ken Berry’s videos have been a tremendous inspiration for me to give this a try!

  3. I tried as have many keto and mct oil as well as cbd (and Curcumin, Magnesium, Milk Thistle) for my dogs seizures. Nothing helped.. Ive worked with others and added coriander seed, ginger, aloe extract and dmg and again, any progress was short lived. I would love to see a true detox for a dog that has been poisoned by Flea nad Tick Insecticide/neurotoxins causing seizures. The EPA/FDA does nothing- they have carte blanche to poison and kill our pets. Word has gotten out and they are paying a price but not enough- Facebook Group has 70K members, but its time for prison for these execs and our dogs deserve so much better. Do NOT Vax booster your dogs and feed fresh- no commercial dog food.

  4. I've been using cold pressed coconut oil for glutenfree oatmeal ( for 3.5 yrs.) tho now just almost 3 eggs with the oil plus 1 tbl. coconut oil before I cook as I have Temporal Lobe epilepsy and I've had a VNS for over 20 years/changed 3X and take two medications. I will begin taking powdered Chorella (broken cell wall) soon as I took two teaspoons dissolved in hot water for 18 weeks beginning late last year 2023 tho now I'll take more, maybe 7 or 8 grams with 6 oz. dissolved in warmed juice…..I'll start with warmed juice for 8-12 weeks. Hopefully hot or warmed juice will work better because water didn't.

  5. I have drug resistant epilepsy tho the Intractable control was discovered why ( I had meningitis about 40 yrs. ago) and I now have a VNS and I cook my eggs with cold pressed coconut oil, tho I still take medication daily and am celiac.

  6. I have Lance Adams Syndrome from asthma attack abd cardiac arrest. I take benzos which are taken by people with epilepsy and am on a low carb diet and fast with water only 36 hours weekly. I just bought MCT oil and started taking yesterday, 2 teaspoons a day. Will keep you posted.

  7. I have done 11 months of ketogenic diet and I have noticed a big change in my catamenial epilepsy . I have seizures and I have small seizures happening every month with my menstrual cycle . I will have a big seizure such as a tonic clonic out of the blue maybe 2-3 times a year. However since doing ketogenic my last tonic clonic seizure was well under control . I could feel the extent of the seizure happening at a very slow rate , I was able to feel it happening and I wrote everything down as it was happening a friend was sitting beside me when I told her I felt like my arms were being clenched together , my legs felt clenched , my head and brain was very hot but my legs and feet were very very cold. I tried talking but because my medication is a sodium channel blocker ( Tegretol CR and Keppra ) I always become wxtremely dry in the mouth and I couldn’t speak to her etc . I think if it wasn’t for ketogenic diet , I would never had experienced a seizure like that .
    Usually it takes me many days to recover but I recovered within the hour and felt back to normal and felt great . So thank you Sr Berg, studying you has helped me immensely and I love that I’ve lost 25 kilos and I hate sugar and breads etc . Xx

  8. I take keppra xr three times daily. Had my first seizure in April 2010. I was 46-years-old. Alcohol brings on seizures for me. Stress too. I’m going to try the keto diet with the oil. I sure would like to get off the meds.

  9. Dr I am Raji from India…You are my all time helping, following and comfortable guider…With my eyes rolling down with tears my mother had seizures for the first time n her age is 75 Dr….I will get her into Ketogenic deit along with MCT oil and prolonged fasting ….. Thank you soo much for your guidance, we need you always pls ….🙏🙏🙏

  10. It absolutely works. My husband is off all medication and uses a spoon full of oil (and drinks a little water) to make sure he makes it through the night without a seizure. Almost a year without one – knock on wood!

  11. Fasting + Ketogenic diet → ↓gamma-Glutamyltranspeptidase → seizure protection.

    Fasting + Ketogenic diet → ↑Akkermansia muciniphila + Parabacteroides merdae → Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxal-5-phosphate P5P) → ↑GABA biosynthesis → seizure reductions and ↓prancreatic Insulin secretion (weight loss).

    GABA biosynthesis: L-Glutamine (Glutamine synthetase <> Glutamate synthase) to produce Glutamate (Glutamate decarboxylase with Vitamin B6 + Magnesium) to produce GABA.

    GABA helps seizure reduction in the brain and GABA helps insulin regulation in the pancreas (weight loss).

  12. Can MCT oil will help me with nocturnal seizures ? That started in 2005 I was diagnosed with brain tumour and after 2 surgery’s I am on Dilantin but still sometimes I am getting seizures?ANY ADVICE Dr.Berg?

  13. Naturally I hate porn, and I also heard that it's not good for the brains even those with no Epilepsy,

    But I enjoy watching animal mating.
    However, each time I watch a video of animals mating especially horses, I get a seizure.

    But When I stop watching these videos,
    take my medication on time, eat my Breakfast,
    lunch and dinner on time,
    Exercise and pray,
    I live longer with no incidents…

    Can someone please, give me your point of view,

  14. Thank God for this information. Nuerologist started me on seizure medicine last week. I feel worse. I've been to the ER twice this week. The side effects scared me to death. I can't wait to try your suggestions DR. Berg. God Bless you!

  15. My husband was diagnosed with PD over 5 years ago. He is 75. Ordered MCT oil from you this week. Will check with his Doc before giving him any. Praying this helps with his cognition. Thanks Dr. Berg. Have recently discovered your utube videos and am enjoying each one.

  16. I apparently just started having seizures Friday night. This was quite a shock to me. I am on the keto and I do fast 18 hrs a days every day. The keto and fast came before the seizures so we'll see what happens.
    Thanks Dr B

  17. I have epilepsy and this is the first day I took it. For a long time I felt like I had an alarm going off in my head that something was wrong and I couldn't figure out what it was. After taking the mct oil I was so tired and slept for 3 hours. That alarm going off in my body is now gone.
