potatoes a problem? Am I missing something???

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

Any idea why a mom friend of mine who goes to the same DAN doctor as I would

have been advised NOT to allow her son any form of potatoes (regular or sweet

potatoes)

There is a suspicion of possible seizure in his case, so perhaps it is due to

that-- a ketogenic or Atkins type low carb diet???

My son also has suspected (tho never confirmed by multiple EEGs) absence

seizures. I am concerned as I do give him lots and lots of french fries and

chips.

Is there any other reason you guys may know of to exclude or limit potatoes in a

GFCF diet? My son also does have yeast issues, so obviously they're not great

from that standpoint either.... Just wondering if I am missing something else

and how seriously to take this!

Thank you all for any insight!!!

HTH, Alisa
