Robyn Blackford RDN LDN, @LurieChildrens Epilepsy Center Ketogenic Diet Program, answers the question“What's the difference between what I read on the internet versus the ketogenic diet that you’re teaching our family?” https://t.co/QgkfsO9aS2 @KetoQueen #EpilepsyAwarenessMonth

Thanks so much for your partnership @neurology_live It was great spending time talking about this important epilepsy therapy option.

[NeurologyLive® @neurology_live]

We sat down with @KetoQueen to discuss whether #epilepsy type factors into the decision to use a given dietary approach.

She also discussed why previous eating habits and the settings in where you eat have a role in how your diet may be constructed.

Sunscreen is important, however, some people on the #medicalketogenicdiet are sensitive to carbs in sunscreen (which can be absorbed through the skin). You can find low/no-carbohydrate sunscreens on the Charlie Foundation’s Low/No Carb Product List: https://t.co/mUPd4EOsiJ.
