Natural Relief for Multiple Sclerosis

Here are some natural alternatives for the relief of MS symptoms:

  1. Identify and remove all manufactured/processed food chemicals from all the foods you eat or drink, chew or swallow.
  2. Detox your body at least once every quarter, or four times a year, for a minimum of four-weeks each quarter; high metal levels in the body may be a possible cause of MS, or at the very least, exacerbate MS symptoms.
  3. Decrease animal protein and replace with plant protein.
  4. Supplement with an upper and lower digestive enzyme (a full-spectrum enzyme) after every large meal or after a meal predominant in animal protein.
  5. Eat organic meats, dairy, fruits and vegetables whenever possible, and make sure your soy choices are from properly fermented sources.
  6. Replace hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils, including margarine, with organic, cold-pressed seed oils.
  7. Supplement at least five times a week with an omega-3 fatty acid from Cod Liver oil, oily nuts, flax seeds, evening primrose oil, and Alpha Lipoic acid.
  8. Supplement at least five times to seven times a week with antioxidants, vitamin C from ascorbic acid (seven days a week), and a high-quality multivitamin + trace mineral complex.
  9. Add taking an additional B-100 complex vitamin in the mornings at least four to five times a week.
  10. Supplement with a pure form of B3 niacin that is NOT flush free; begin with 50-100 mg after a light meal and notice if you flush within 30 minutes; if a flush does not occur, then increase the dose daily by 50 mg until a flushing sensation is felt (and seen, as you will look sunburned for a few short minutes); stop increasing the dose when a moderate to heavy flush occurs, and maintain the maximum dose determined when a light flush regularly occurs within 20-30 minutes after supplementation.see Vitamins and Supplements
  11. Get plenty of sunshine and/or supplement with vitamin D four to five times a week.
  12. Keep your body active by doing some form of exercise on a regular basis, even if light walking.
  13. Get to bed by 11:00 PM at the latest, even if you must read or meditate to fall asleep; if you cannot fall asleep quickly, stay on your back as this enhances relaxation; sleep should follow.
  14. Get 8-10 hours of sleep every night; no more and no less; if you awaken tired, get up any way and try to nap for 20 minutes during the day.
  15. Research positive healing techniques, and maintain faith that you can improve your MS symptoms.
