Six cases of abdominal epilepsy were studied from viewpoint of food allergy and the following results were obtained.
1. Through elimination and trial ingestion, food allergens were confirmed in all six cases. They were soybean in 6, milk in 2 and egg in 1.
2. Irregular slow dysrhythmia was evidently decreased five days to a month after eliminating food allergens.
3. Diffuse irregular slow dysrhythmia with seizure discharge was markedly increased four to twenty-four hours after giving food allergens.
4. Threshold of activating agents for the EEG was obviously reduced after administering food allergens. In this way close relationship between abdominal epilepsy and food allergy was demonstrated.
