In part two, Dr. Ching Soong Khoo discusses practical clinical approaches to obesity in epilepsy, focusing on quality of life, exercise safety, diet, and multidisciplinary care.

Why is obesity so common in people with epilepsy, and why is it so often overlooked in clinical care? This episode explores prevalence data, physical activity, and the consequences of missing obesity in routine epilepsy management.

A parent-led insight into life with Dravet Syndrome, this episode explores family dynamics, caregiving roles, and findings from an ethnographic study capturing the lived experiences of families across Europe.

There's been a small but significant update re focal seizure terminology. Prof. Sándor Beniczky breaks down why "consciousness" is now the key term used to describe focal seizures and why this change helps everyone.

Prof. Nicola Specchio explores global challenges in caring for people with the epilepsies, from delayed diagnosis & inequitable access to the advances in precision medicine transforming outcomes.

Children may benefit from being weaned off of anti-seizure medications when they are on the ketogenic diet. Find out how the ketogenic diet can significantly benefit children with epilepsy - even when it doesn’t control their seizures!

What should someone do if interested in adopting the ketogenic diet or looking further into "metabolic psychiatry"? Hear about sacrifices, benefits, weight loss, constipation, nutrition, and having the right support.

Learn of the evolution of the ketogenic diet, metabolic psychiatry, the treatment overlap between different diagnoses (e.g. the epilepsies and mood disorders). This is part 2 of 3 with the Pharmacist Who Gave Up Drugs: Graham Phillips.

Are humans forgetting the animals that we actually are? The Pharmacist Who Gave Up Drugs - Graham Phillips - talks to us about the impacts of the regular western diet and the impacts on health - in part 1 of 3.

Hear of clinical study involving paediatric faecal samples of those with refractory epilepsy who started the ketogenic diet; investigating their gut microbiota and how it may be related to changes in epileptic seizures.

Hear about epilepsy research into gut microbiota, how they connect with the brain, and the link between them, poo/faeces, and seizures! Think ketogenic diet. This is part 1 of 2.
