Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Food usually don't lead to precipitation of seizures.
But if such a correlation is noticed, better to avoid such stuff.
Syncopal attacks and allergic manifestation may also be in relation with food and should be considered another possibility.
