Goals
Expand the use of the diet to more children who need it, specifically those with infantile spasms.
Promote the use of dietary therapies as a first-line option (rather than last resort).
Educate neurologists, parents, dietitians, and pediatricians about the use of dietary therapies (through up-to-date information, links, webinars, etc.)
Help parents recognize infantile spasms early
Support parents who are using dietary therapies for their children (e.g. support group/classes)
Provide resources for research to centers involved in ketogenic diet research.
Partner with the John M. Freeman Pediatric Epilepsy Center.
