As the metabolic aetiology of epilepsy is being unravelled, therapies targeting metabolic pathways are being explored.1 There is much interest in the therapeutic potential of diets such as the high-fat antiseizure ketogenic diet and the modified Atkins diet, which may have downstream neuroprotective and antiseizure effects.1
