Oops.

The film was about doctors ignoring ketogenic diets for epilepsy, causing harm to a particular boy. The filmed placed great emphasis on primum non nocere, or rather the lack of it in practice. The mother finally got her son to a doctor who put him on the diet. The boy did very well on the ketogenic diet.

There are still doctors refusing to put children with epilepsy on ketogenic diets.

Here is a link to different ketogenic diets at The Charlie Foundation .
