Hello, I recently found out that a friend's son has been diagnosed with DMD. While we have been told that there is no cure, I am researching all possible natural remedies that can help slow down muscle deterioraton. Are there any specific remedies (Antioxidants, etc.) that should be pursued? Any knowledge or advice would be greatly appreciated.
