Please understand, I am NOT saying that these supplements will cure, treat or prevent epilepsy.
But I am saying that we folks with epilepsy have to do everything we can for our brain health.
And these supplements can help a lot with that.
In fact, the nutrients they contain are so important for your brain cells, you really should seriously consider them.
That’s how strongly I feel.
And the science backs me up.

Your pharmacist is the least expensive and most accessible health resource you have.
They fill prescriptions and provide expert information about medications — a very important role, considering the prominent use of seizure medications to treat epilepsy.
You can see the pharmacist anytime you want, without an appointment, and all consultations are free.
In medicine, that’s extraordinary.

Déjà Vu or Prescience?
12 Comments
Think of it as knowing something from the past…or feeling a premonition of the future.
Those who have experienced the déjà vu feeling, describe it as an overwhelming sense of familiarity, with something that shouldn’t be familiar at all.
Those who experience prescience, feel they have the ability to see into the future in some way.

How Creative Are YOU?

I was born a writer. Just like I was born with brown eyes.
In 5th grade when we were assigned to write a poem with an illustration, everyone wrote about the spring, flowers, stars, the city, the country.
I wrote about racism. My illustration was a black silhouette pasted against white paper.
My teacher promptly sent me home with a note for my parents, accusing me of plagiarism.
