What is Epilepsy:

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by abnormal brain activity that happens due to neurons hyperexcitability.

Neurons are the nerve cells responsible for gathering and transmitting information across the body to maintain proper functioning of the organs. The brain contains approximately 100 billion neurons.

These neurons have ion channels that are electrically excitable. When a neuron’s signal is disrupted or it gets hyperexcited, too many neurons start sending signals at the same time, generating electrical disturbances.

What is Epilepsy:

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by abnormal brain activity that happens due to neurons hyperexcitability.

Neurons are the nerve cells responsible for gathering and transmitting information across the body to maintain proper functioning of the organs. The brain contains approximately 100 billion neurons.

These neurons have ion channels that are electrically excitable. When a neuron’s signal is disrupted or it gets hyperexcited, too many neurons start sending signals at the same time, generating electrical disturbances.

This causes the nervous system to become overloaded with information, resulting in epilepsy seizures.

These seizures can cause a change in the patient's behavior, movement, sensation, and sometimes a loss of awareness.

Men are slightly more likely to develop epilepsy than women, but the disease affects men and women differently.

Epilepsy affects people of all ages. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in 2015, 3 million adults and 470,000 children had epilepsy in the United States.
