Patient's question:
When I was a child, I had encephalitis. Now, it's been more than a year since I haven't had a seizure. Will I still get epilepsy? How can I prevent it?Doctor's answer:
Epileptic patients should limit carbohydrate intake, restrict potassium intake (low-potassium foods include bok choy, small radishes, white radishes, celery, pumpkin, tomato, eggplant, onion, cucumber, winter melon, loofah, zucchini, pear, apple, grape, pineapple, etc.), and increase magnesium intake (millet, corn, red bean, soybean, dried tofu, green vegetables, celery, beef liver, chicken). It is not advisable to eat too much food high in zinc (oysters, pancreas, liver, blood, lean meat, eggs, coarse grains, walnuts, peanuts, watermelon seeds, etc.).
