The U.S. News & World Report’s annual survey of hospitals is considered the pre-eminent source for excellence.
For the 2021 evaluations, thirty-nine hospitals were ranked for their ability to deal with serious psychiatric problems.
I know from personal experience as a Health & Wellness writer that certain nutrients can help your neuro functions.
But, like anything else, there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
What food combinations that work for one might definitely not work for another.
And it certainly doesn’t take the place of meds.
However, I do believe that although living a healthy lifestyle won’t cure you…it can certainly help you.
So, here’s some information for sensible eating and supplementing your diet.
Few of these conditions will cause epilepsy itself…but many can lead to seizures. So consider this a definition of the possibilities…
COVID-19 seems to be knocking on everybody’s door. Along with the peril and the terror.
And the possibility of seeing your doctor during these dangerous times seems risky, at best.
So, you can’t see the doctor and they can’t see you.
Except in a hospital setting, critical care or a clinic.
That could means more exposure. More jeopardy. Is it really worth the exposure?
There’s a “Golden Rule” which says: “He who has the most gold makes the rules.”
And who might that be? And what are the methods used?
Some are simply amazing. (Or at least I thought so.)
But they all follow the “Golden Rule.”
Drug-resistant epilepsy with uncontrolled severe seizures — despite state-of-the-art medical treatment — continues to be a major problem for up to 30% of patients with epilepsy.
Although drug resistance may fluctuate in the course of treatment, for most patients, drug resistance seems to be continuous.
Unfortunately, traditional antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) don’t seem to prevent or reverse drug resistance in most patients.
However, some new add-on AED therapies have shown as much as 50% in seizure reduction.
This research concerns the structural brain lesions that have been associated with drug resistance in epilepsy.
Imagine a tiny, unobtrusive brain monitor — like an earbud or a hearing aid — that could read brainwaves through the ear.
Amazing as it sounds, this tiny device could help predict seizures and track daily seizures in people with uncontrolled epilepsy, according to a small pilot study.
Engineers at Imperial College in London have developed exactly that.
An EEG device that can be worn inside the ear, like a hearing aid.
Neither is mutually exclusive.
You can have medication without meditation. Most of us do.
You can do meditation without medication. Most of us wouldn’t and shouldn’t take that risk.
But together, they can enhance one another.
