Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I have a friend who is a nutritionist and she has one MS client, and she does the detox foot bath with him a few times a week and that seems to help him be able to walk better. He is also getting some good results with this stem cell product - http://www.regeneratestemcells.com - and also lots and lots of plant-based enzymes.

While I don't each much with gluten in it (not a big bread or cereal eater), I do eat some. It certainly is something to consider. At his point, it wouldn't really involve deleting too many things from my diet....Sure sounds as though your body has a bad reaction to it For me, the medication to alleviate pain and the muscle spasms slows the peristaltic movement of my bowels down practically to nil. One of the best things I've ever found that works really well is something called Lactulose - it's basically a syrup made of a complex sugar.....One oz at night really does the trick for me.....things move and with no pain. Most of my pain is caused by the muscle spasms, several failed back surgeries and degenerative disk disease. Really appreciate the thought and your story. And, I'm definitely going to consider it.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I got no clue why those bees are sick and disappearing, but I am sure they are not disappearing because of the sting therapy. I do not think that you should sting your self with sick bees, but there still most be healthy bees around, and sure they die because of that, but so it is. According to the web there is thousands of people who is helped by this therapy.KennDen 27/02/2008 kl. 00.20 skrev Lynn Ward:At 04:58 PM 2/26/2008, you wrote:Although I've never known anyone personally who's tried it, apparently a number of people have found it effective.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 I admit I didn't read all these MS posts, but I had to chime in here. I do research almost everyday for my autistic/seizure son and I see stuff all the time on MS. Forgive me if I am repeating here. Diet Mega supplements Detox Immune Building with a colostrum powder is very important I use Transfer Factor for my son and saw an improvement with the first one. I have become a distributor now so I can get it cheaper. But truly it is an awesome product. I used IGg 2ooo at first and didn't notice anything.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 A good site for supplements for MS or whatever is www.mynsp.com/herbal because it has over 600 items such as homepathic, essential oil, herbs, etc plus a health analyzer quiz. With MS, I'd try also a nervine formula of herbs which help the myelin sheaths which covers the nerves, such as a formula on there called " Eight " because it has 8 herbs. Do you take essential fatty acids and fiber? You do need large amounts of B-complex and B-6 also for awhile. A colon cleanse would be helpful too. Don't forget about Super Algae for minerals. Eat only organic foods, no sugar. You can get Xylitol sugar from the link above, which is real sugar from corn which does not cause tooth decay like cane sugar. No dairy, gluten, wheat, oat, barley, splelt or rye, except sprouted. Rice, millet and buckwheat OK. Egg yolks plus liquid chlorophyll have been used to feed the myelin sheath.

I'm going to have to look into the bee-sting therapy for real - like I said, I never thought I'd be in a position to ever really consider it. Ah, how things can change....... Thanks for the suggestion - at this point I think I need to look at all options. Just a tad bit scared of the stingy-thing, though. Even though I get shots every day, knowingly setting myself up for something that is going to hurt is scary. thanks again, Lynn I got no clue why those bees are sick and disappearing, but I am sure they are not disappearing because of the sting therapy. I do not think that you should sting your self with sick bees, but there still most be healthy bees around, and sure they die because of that, but so it is. According to the web there is thousands of people who is helped by this therapy.

While I didn't feel as desperate in past years, I'm approaching that point. I wonder, just saw something on bees last night - they're trying to figure out how or where so many have simply disappeared to. Turns out, after the bees have disappeared, no other bees will go into their hive. Usually, if nothing is wrong, other bees will go into the hive if it's available and take the honey. With the bees that have disappeared, no bee or bug will enter those hives. They're finding the bees' (the ones that are left) immune systems are compromised (big shock with all the pesticides, etc) and that they're undernourished (so sad, but not a shock). Apparently they also have all kind of mites as well. It seems our bees are not so healthy. So, in a round-a-bout way, I guess I'm wondering - if the bees aren't as healthy anymore, do you think bee-sting therapy would still be effective for some? I don't know - perhaps someone here has a clue. Lynn You probably know all about this.......but if I had this muscle decline, I certainly would try out bee venom, If I lived in the states ( here I can not, only if I bought some bees myself ) Den 26/02/2008 kl. 18.04 skrev Lynn Ward: At 08:38 PM 2/25/2008, you wrote: Anna, What symptoms have you had? What has caused the diagnosis? I've actually had MS for more than 30 years now. Have had many ups and downs over the years. Lucky for me, when I was first diagnosed, I had Relapsing Remiting (RRMS), and while some things got pretty bad at times, I usually got a lot better with treatment. I know steroids are bad for you in so many ways, but they really helped when I had severe onsets of symptoms. Now, it has turned into Secondary Progressive (SPMS). I know sun is good for you, and I think I felt better, overall when we lived in San Diego, where the climate is, for the most part, temperate. (not too hot, not too cold). However, even while the sun is good for you, the heat is not, and can bring an exacerbation of symptoms on. Heat is frequently a big issue for folks with MS. I don't know how long you have been diagnosed, or if it is a firm diagnosis. Hope you have a good neurologist? There has been much written about certain diets over the years, but little to show they made much difference over eating healthy and well. Here is a link to a site you might find interesting: http://www.msviewsandrelatednews.com/ Lynn I myself have been told its possible that I have MS, so I'd like to see material here, as much as anyone has, endless thanks to whomever can do this for me and anyone else in the group who has just started their journey. Anna Maria Lynn Ward <lynnward wrote: I've been hesitant to do this, but here goes....I know a couple of people in the group have MS (multiple sclerosis), but don't recall who. Aside from some of the standard symptoms (which are often so down-played by the media), there is one that has been particularly troubling - the terrible muscle spasms that nothing seems to help much or for very long. Has anyone heard of any particular vitamin or mineral or whatever that can alleviate them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appreciate the info, Lynn A good site for supplements for MS or whatever is www.mynsp.com/herbal because it has over 600 items such as homepathic, essential oil, herbs, etc plus a health analyzer quiz. With MS, I'd try also a nervine formula of herbs which help the myelin sheaths which covers the nerves, such as a formula on there called " Eight " because it has 8 herbs. Do you take essential fatty acids and fiber? You do need large amounts of B-complex and B-6 also for awhile. A colon cleanse would be helpful too. Don't forget about Super Algae for minerals. Eat only organic foods, no sugar. You can get Xylitol sugar from the link above, which is real sugar from corn which does not cause tooth decay like cane sugar.
