We all like to drink drinks, but some epilepsy patients worry that drinking drinks will lead to seizures, so they never dare to try. Can a drink really induce epilepsy?

What can't epilepsy patients drink

Tea, coffee, coke and other drinks, if the right amount of drinking, there is no risk of seizures. But drinking too much or too much tea or coffee at a time can also induce epilepsy. Tea, coffee and cola all contain different levels of nerve stimulating substances, which can stimulate the brain center. And a large number of these drinks may appear after a transient "brain edema" state. All these factors can reduce the anticonvulsant ability of the brain and induce seizures.

Therefore, epilepsy patients should not drink strong tea, and drink tea as well, coffee to boil a little light, to add milk to drink. It should also be noted that no matter what kind of drinks should be drunk too much at a time.

The diet of patients with epilepsy should be diversified as far as possible, and eat more nutritious and easy to digest foods, such as pasta, beans, lean meat, eggs, fish, milk, etc., especially beans, fresh vegetables, fruits, dairy products, which are rich in protein and phospholipids, contribute to the recovery of brain function and reduce the number of seizures. In addition, epilepsy diet should increase the intake of magnesium. Epilepsy patients often lack magnesium, especially those who need long-term drug treatment. In addition to high calcium diet, magnesium intake should also be paid attention to.
