Cell Health


Quote :
The cell membrane that surrounds each neuron plays an important role in seizure disorders. Cell membranes are crucial for neurons to generate electrical impulses. Recent research has focused on membrane structure, how molecules move in and out of membranes, and how the cell nourishes and repairs the membrane. A disruption in any of these processes may lead to seizures.
Please think about this when you are considering your options for treatment.
Nutritional changes should be the very first choice IMO. The body is designed to repair itself when it is in optimum health.

Seizures have many causes. Anything that disturbs the normal pattern of neuron activity, from illness to brain damage to abnormal brain development, can lead to seizures. Given sufficient stimulus, any person may have a seizure. The amount of stimulation required to induce seizure is called the seizure threshold.
