Abstract
Early diagnosis is critical because it allows prompt initiation of treatment with a ketogenic diet (KD). Childhood is the critical period for treatment of GLUT1DS: early diagnosis is crucial for an effective etiological therapy. KD treatment can be useful in adulthood too. Compliance has been found to be much better in GLUT1DS than in the other conditions for which KD treatment is indicated.
