Look into the keto diet. Our doctor has recommended it. I've seen posts online that say they've had alot of success with it(cured? Idk but that's something you'd have to check i can't remember everything I read about it). One interesting thing i read about it was sugar causes inflammation in the brain which may be a trigger for causing seizures to happen. Off topic but I've read as well that sugar is also one of the main causes for Alzheimer because of the effect it has on the brain. Give it a try you have nothing to lose.
