Patient's question:
Yesterday, one of my friends had an episode after drinking coffee. I want to know if there is any component in coffee that could trigger a seizure. He didn't faint; instead, his limbs kept trembling, including all over his body, and it took about ten minutes for him to gradually recover.

Hello, patients should pay attention to their diet: Eat more nutritious and easily digestible foods, such as noodles, beans, lean meat, eggs, fish, and milk, especially more beans, fresh vegetables, fruits, and dairy products. These foods are rich in high protein and phospholipids, which help in the recovery of brain function and reduce the frequency of epilepsy attacks. Additionally, eat less greasy and fatty foods, as well as foods known in traditional Chinese medicine as "allergic foods," such as goose meat and mutton. It is also best to eat less spicy foods like chili, coffee, onions, and garlic.
