Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system (CNS), meaning the brain and spinal cord. The first symptoms that become apparent are numbness, tingling, muscle weakness and blurred vision. Later on, cognitive difficulties, muscle stiffness and urinary problems may present themselves. A number of therapies exist which can slow the progress of the disease. Here, we talk about natural treatment for MS.
Multiple Sclerosis is one of a group of diseases called autoimmune disorders. In this case, cells of the immune system known as T-cells are believed to attack the myelin sheaths that line nerve cells to facilitate nerve conduction. The incidence and prevalence of the condition vary with geological region; cases tend to cluster with increasing distance from the equator.
Scientists used to think that only the white matter was involved. It is now apparent that the disease strikes the grey matter, as well. This makes sense in view of the cognitive disturbances, colloquially known as "brain fog" associated with the disease. Epidemiologists are studying the geographic clustering of MS. It appears that people born near the equator who relocate into a region where there is lots of MS become more susceptible to the condition.
George Jelinek, a professor of Emergency Medicine in Australia, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at the age of 45. He keeps his condition under control using a few simple lifestyle rules and runs a 5-day retreat at the Gawler Foundation in Australia for patients with multiple sclerosis. He also runs retreats in New Zealand.
Jelinek's five rules are simple: Absolutely no trans fats (except those found naturally in vegetables), meditate every day, exercise regularly, take high levels of vitamin D and take conventional medicine if necessary. Professor Jelinek supplements his regime with glatiramer, a member of the immunomodulatory class of drugs.
The wife of Mitt Romney, Ann, went to the doctor in 1998 after experiencing the notorious brain fog. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She made public the information that horseback riding offers her protection from the symptoms. It is noteworthy that this is compliant with the Jelinek protocol. When a television presenter at MSNBC publicly poked fun at her for saying this, it flushed out another person with MS, Fox News Channel senior Neil Cavuto, who had strong words for him.
Another celebrities who has been affected by the disease is Jack Osborne, son of Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne. He first suffered visual difficulties in 2012, when he was 26 years old and a new father. Jack is responding to a healthy eating plan. Other celebrities with the condition include legendary Mousekateer Annette Funicello, country singer Donna Fargo and two of the Osmond Brothers, David and Alan.
One more natural treatment for MS that has so far been confined to Europe is an extract that contains two different cannabinoids derived from what is more popularly known as marijuana. It is formulated as a mouth spray and is used to control spasticity with good effect.
