A total of 150 children were entered into a study of the ketogenic diet's efficacy and tolerability. The results were remarkable. Of the original 150 patient cohort, 20 of the children (13%) became seizure-free and an additional 21 (14%) had a 90% to 99% decrease in their seizures. In addition, twenty-nine of the children became free of medications, and 28 were on only 1 medication.
