Hello at Dogileptic

MCT oil for canine epilepsy explained with benefits, dosing and risks, plus vet-guided tips to support seizure control and long-term dog health.

Over the past two decades, research in both human and veterinary medicine has shown that nutrition can influence seizure susceptibility through multiple overlapping pathways, including energy metabolism, mitochondrial function, inflammation, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter balance, and gut–brain signalling.

For many years, epilepsy in dogs was thought of as a condition affecting only the brain. But new scientific research is changing the way we view the gut–brain connection in dogs with canine epilepsy. Studies are now showing that the gut, and the vast community of bacteria and chemicals living within it may also play a surprisingly important role in seizure activity, inflammation, and even how well dogs respond to medication.
