The Seizure and Parasite Connection Is More Common Than You Think. Seizures and epilepsy are neurological events that can drastically alter quality of life. Conventional diagnoses often center around genetics, trauma, or idiopathic brain dysfunctions. Yet a growing body of evidence suggests that a hidden cause may be overlooked in many cases: parasites.
Misdiagnosis and Overlooked Causes:
Seizures are commonly misdiagnosed as epilepsy when in fact they may be caused by neurotoxins, inflammation, or cyst formation due to parasitic infections. In such cases, anticonvulsant medications may mask the symptoms without resolving the root cause. This may lead to years of ineffective treatment.
