Hi everyone,
I have another question for all of you. I have read in your conversations many times, that it is important to take certain vitamins to help control seizures. I would like to know which vitamins and amounts etc are important to help with seizures? We are going to the doctor soon and I would like to bring this up at our visit (and know what I'm talking about). Thanks
Penny

Hello
I take a multivitamin that is supposed to be for people prone to mild depression. It has more B vitamins than other multivitamins. I also take calcium & magnesium in one tablet. I also take vitamins D (1000 I.U.)& E(400 I.U.) and Ginkgo. As a precaution I also take a time-release B-Complex 100 and a sublingual B12, 3000 mcg. I have a family history of depression and I have been prone to seasonal depression in the past. This year I feel just fine. The only meds I take are tegretol 400 mg/day.
Hello, my name is Dee-Dee and I was on the computer two days ago and I happen to run across this web-site that said this little girl was born with a learning disability and had 5 to 10 seizures aday and had cerebral palsy and by taking these vitamins that It helped her stop her 5 to 10 seizures and helped her to start speaking alot clearly so people can understand her. And it helps with cancer allergies shillings and alot more human's and animals can take these vitamins and if anyone know what I am talking about please email me, and while I was on the web I ran across what I was asking. And it is called granules and you can not get them in the stores you have to order them. And while I was reading your emails I saw where omega 3 fatty acids, b complex,b vitamins B6, magnesium, calcium, 400mg folic acids help for your seizures and I would like to know witch vitamins whould be the best to take. Take Care Dee-Dee
Hi! I am curious of the Granules that you have mentioned.
Thanks! Anna
MLB, I have had very good success with omega three. I take the capsules but a very small amount. I got rid of 234 auras a month and nine seizures a month. I take capsules but they say the oil is better which is suppose to be taken with cottage cheese or yogurt. I have taken it in the past and I just dont feel like dealing with the oil.
best of luck

Hi, I have been using vitamin B6 for over 37 years to control my seizures. My medication now consists of all eight B vitamins only. AEDs have never had any positive effects on my seizures.

DO NOT ALTER ANY MEDICATION WITHOUT YOUR DOCTOR'S CONSENT.
