Listen now
Description
This week we talk with neurologist Dr. Laurie Seltzer, registerd dietitian Leean Habben, and CASK gene mama Christine Phillips regarding the ketogenic diet, and it's positive impact on epilepsy! Don't miss the updates on our new project; Project CASK! CASK family, we are delighted to be back on the podcast with you, I know it has been a while since we’ve dropped any episodes and for good reason! By now you may have seen that we have launched an innovative rare disease non-profit; Project CASK, driving breakthroughs for treatments and a cure for CASK gene disorders and we have hit the ground running. We have an amazing team of CASK moms and dads, extended family and trusted advisors working on our boards. We feel incredibly blessed to have these leaders and our community. A few highlights of our progress in these last three months include Project CASK’s partnership with the Orphan Disease Center, with whom we will be co-hosting the first ever multi-disciplinary global meeting on CASK - the CASK Think Tank. We’ve also released our motto; Rare as Unicorns, Strong as Lions, and our spirit animal, the Liocorn (part unicorn, part lion); who is a lot of glitter and a lot of roar, just like our children. We have also begun to gather artists for the Ultra Rare Collection… but more on that later! For now, let’s get to our interview with neurologist Dr. Laurie Seltzer, registered dietician Leeann Habben, and CASK mama Christine Phillips!
