Potential causal link between dietary intake and epilepsy: a bidirectional and multivariable Mendelian randomization study
The present MR study provides evidence of a causal, protective relationship between non-oily fish intake and reduced epilepsy risk. Additionally, the findings suggest that epilepsy may influence water intake patterns. These results contribute to our understanding of the role of dietary factors in epilepsy and may inform dietary recommendations for the management and prevention of this condition.
