My Wife's Seizures - Remission

Sat, 07/21/2018 - 12:29
About 15 years ago my wife suddenly started having seizures. She was placed on Keppra, but continued having Grand Mal and Mini Mal seizures. Her worst day was with nine seizures. She is 70 years old. Vegan. We both take a range of supplements, and 2 1/2 years ago we added alpha lipoic acid and ketoglutarate to our supplements. She suddenly stopped having seizures. We don't know if the additional substances helped, but something sure did. A list of our supplements are at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KZx5pKla7s1besj_82ROOVYJ6Z6yo1Cs/view DO NOT use any of these without consulting your doctor.
