Positive Impact of a Modified Atkins Diet on Cognition, Seizures Control and Abnormal Movements in an Adult With Glucose Transporter Type 1 Deficiency Syndrome Deficiency Syndrome

2021-05-06

Abstract excerpt

Glucose is the primary energy fuel used by the brain and is transported across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) by the glucose transporter type 1 and 2.[1] A GLUT1 genetic defect is responsible for glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (GLUT1DS). Patients with GLUT1DS may present with pharmaco-resistant epilepsy, developmental delay, microcephaly, and/or abnormal movements, with tremendous phenotypic variabi...
