Multiple sclerosis is not a new disease, and in fact, is quite well known around the world. It is the result of myelin damage, affecting the brain and spinal cord, and causing numerous symptoms. People can experience loss of coordination, muscle loss, issues with vision, and other problems, although they may also experience a remission from the disease. Below, learn whether it is possible to reverse MS.
Research has demonstrated that nutrition plays a key role in the reversal of this degenerative disease. It has been shown that patients suffering from multiple sclerosis have had some brain shrinkage, which can be treated by eating right. The main objective here is to feed the mitochondria, which are found within the cells and that supplied cells with energy, the right nutrients. In this case, omega-3 fatty acids and coenzyme Q10 are the main nutrients required to maintain proper mitochondrial function. Creatine is another key element required.
In addition to the above, it is important to supplement the diet with certain B vitamins. Iodine and sulfur are also crucial which have indicated the slowing of the disease, as well as the improvement in the patient. Having said that, this particular diet is known as the Paleo Diet, one that is completely different from the popular Western diet. The latter is the most unhealthy way to eat. It lacks in nutrients and this chock-full of dangerous ingredients that are directly responsible for the increase in these degenerative, chronic illnesses.
That means eating plenty of greens and sulfur-rich vegetables, as well as bright colored fruits and vegetables. It means increasing the amount of wild fish consumed, and decreasing the amount of regular red meat. Instead, people have to eat more grass fed meat, and seaweed which is rich in iodine and selenium.
Unfortunately for some people, it also requires putting an end to eating any processed foods. In addition to processed foods, grains, corn, and potatoes should be avoided altogether. Moreover, few people are getting the right amount of vitamin D, and vitamin D deficiency is extremely common these days. Therefore, get more sun exposure, use tanning beds, and/or take vitamin D supplements.
More things to avoid include any artificial sweeteners and aspartame, which happens to be found in almost all gum. These are extremely toxic and are believed to cause neurological disorders of a chronic nature. Aspartame simply kills brain neurons. On the other hand, antioxidants feed the brain neurons.
Lifestyle changes need to be made in order to reverse MS. Along with the above recommendations, it's important to eliminate sugar, and especially fructose, pasteurized dairy products, and commercial fruit juices. Fermented vegetables and raw fruits and vegetables are extremely important to good health and for the reversal of different autoimmune diseases. At the same time, it is important to check iron levels, as too much or too little can cause a problem.
Finally, in order to reverse MS, checking one's mercury levels is important, and possibly undergoing a mercury detox. It's simply poisonous, and must be completely removed from one's body and one's diet. Large catches a fish should be completely avoided, and any dental work done with mercury must be corrected.
