Listmates,

This is what I got.  Thanks

HI

Will forward what I get, I am learning so much from this forum.  Sharing
information like this seems to work better than asking the doctors.

2.      Regarding Seizures - I had petimal epilepsy as a child, my grandfather

who was a nutritionist figured out I was lacking magnesium.  As soon as
the family changed the diet(from typical american to real food) and
suplimented with magnesium, my seizures stopped.  I have not had any
seizures since.  Traditional medicine still believes I grew out of the
petimal that week!

3.      I do have epilepsy and i can tell you one thing, alcohol greatly
increases
your chance of seizures.

My son is alleric to gluten among other thing and he recently had a seizure .
He is 3.  His EEG was normal so they ruled out epilepsy.  We are still trying
to figure out hte cause of it.


4.      Dr. Alessio Fasano at the University of Maryland is very knowledgeable
about Celiac and seizures.  He is very kind and helpful also.  Good luck!
