The Charlie Foundation based in California USA is an establishment set up by parents of a kid who went through the Ketogenic Diet, and successfully overcame his Seizures in Epilepsy.
For those of you who are thinking of venturing into the Ketogenic Diet, I would suggest that you contact the Charlie Foundation, and just with a USD10 payment, they will send you a DVD on the Introduction to Ketogenic Diet.
The DVD is hosted by Meryll Streep and is about 45 mins long. They also interviewed the key doctor - Dr John Freeman and dietian - Millicent Kelly of John Hopkins Hospital. Lots of interviews with parents and also kids who have underwent the Ketogenic Diet and those who are still going through it.
They have a step by step session on the food preparation as well. Overall its a good DVD for parents who want to embark into the Ketogenic Diet. It would help you understand and also help answer some of your frequently asked questions.
