Checking to see if there has been any studies linking epilepsy to diet?

There have been studies looking at diet as a treatment for epilepsy. The two diets I know of that have been tested are high-fat diets and diets that remove all common allergens (dairy, corn, gluten, etc.).

The sucess rates vary for each but would certainly be worth considering if you have or know someone who has epilepsy.
