New Ways To Reverse MS

By Sherry Gross


The human body is a marvel. It is free standing, and all parts all work together in simultaneous harmony to allow for one fully functioning human. It even has natural protective measures that ward off alien invaders from attacking the system. This team of natural body soldiers comprise the immune system of the human anatomy.

The human immune system is an amazing protective mechanism. It defends you against bacteria, parasites, viruses, and other microbial organisms that can enter and take over your body. Healthy diet and an active lifestyle can make your immunity stronger, but there are times when your own system attacks you. This is called autoimmunity, and is the leading cause for diseases like Reverse MS, lupus, and others.

However, there are defects in the normal functions of the system that makes it turn against you. This condition is called autoimmunity, and it truly happens to some people. The healthy cells in your body are finished off by your own immunity which has mistaken these cells as potentially dangerous ones.

It has gotten its name from the build up of scar tissue in the brain. The scars or sclerosis come from the lesions in the nervous system that commonly affects the white matter in the optic nerves, brain stems, basal ganglia, and the spinal cord. It rarely manifests in the peripheral nervous system.

Symptoms of multiple sclerosis actually varies form one person to the next. The damaged nerve signals can cause debilitating signs in an affected person like walking and coordination problems. The affected individual will inevitably have poor control of muscular functions because the commands from the brain cannot reach the intended part. Added symptoms include numbness or pins and needles.

Eye related problems are also linked to MS. This is because the lesions are somehow affecting the white matter in the optic nerves which allows one to perceive sight. If the illness progresses without any attempts to reverse it, the patient may ultimately lose control of all his or her muscles and will even have bladder and bowel control difficulties.

The real cause of MS is still mysteriously unknown, though some experts devoted to its study suspect that a rare combination of environmental factors can bring about the disease. Genetics and infectious agents are considered prime culprits. Smoking and other vices, when coupled with stress, can also increase the risk of developing the disease.

As of the present, there is actually no known cure for the said illness. Most patients are treated with a variety of drugs that are meant to slow down the progression of the disease, but they have varied effects for each patient. Some of them benefit from it, while an alarming number do not. It is for this reason that people are turning to a new kind of special diet to help reverse the said disease. This is also known as the paleo diet.

The paleo diet makes one stay away from man processed carbohydrate sources such as bread and all sorts of grains. It allows one to eat just like the early cave men did, as it is noted that most diseases today are caused about by the wrong kind of fruits. Additional doses of Vitamin D are said to help a lot, too.
