Relationship Between Dietary Nutrition,Lifestyle and Secondary Epilepsy
[Objective]To review the research progress on the relationship between dietary nutrition and lifestyle and secondary epilepsy.[Method]Information about dietary and lifestyle factors and secondary epilepsy were retrieved and extracted from PubMed,CNKI and Wanfang databases.[Result]Vitamin D can improve bone loss caused by antiepileptic therapy,vitamin B6 and B12protect the neurons and shorten the duration of seizures,increased or decreased zinc levels yet have no clear association with secondary epilepsy.Ketogenic diet can reduce the frequency and severity of secondary epilepsy.Alcohol consumption and sleep disturbance both are the potential risk fac-tors for secondary epilepsy,coffee consumption has no significance effect on seizures instead.[Conclusion]Dietary and lifestyle factors are correlated with secondary epilepsy,but the scientific evidences remain insufficiency.More research is needed to explore the specific relationship between dietary and lifestyle factors and secondary epilepsy.
