New UCLA study:
"The Gut Microbiota Mediates the Anti-Seizure Effects of the Ketogenic Diet"

•Changes in the gut microbiota are required for the anti-seizure effects of the KD
•Specific KD-associated bacteria mediate and confer the anti-seizure effects of the KD
•KD microbiota regulate amino acid γ-glutamylation and hippocampal GABA/glutamate
