Patient's question:
The child of the neighbor who comes home is 11 years old and has frequent seizures. I would like to ask, can people with epilepsy eat sweet foods?Doctor's answer:
The harm of sweets for adult epilepsy patients is significant, but not all sweets are off-limits, as the food we consume in daily life contains sugar, such as fruits and beverages, which are all edible. In fact, the daily diet for adult epilepsy patients needs to be reasonably planned, because many factors can trigger epilepsy attacks. Seizures in adult epilepsy patients are extremely painful and can also cause distress to those around them. Therefore, it is crucial to pay close attention to the triggers of epilepsy and avoid them carefully. In daily life, many people enjoy sweets, but for adult epilepsy patients, it is best to consume them in moderation.
