Why Natural Treatment For MS Is A Better Alternative

By Jerri Perry


There are a few diseases that remain mysterious and one of them is Multiple sclerosis (MS). It is believed to begin with a localized inflammatory damage of myelin sheaths which surrounds nerve fibers. Myelin sheaths are the insulation layers protecting nerve fibers and play a role in transmission of electric impulses to and from the brain, spinal cord and other organs. It is believed to begin from immune system attack and leads to neurological impairments like muscle weakness, fatigue and loss of vision among others. There are many ways of managing this condition among which is natural treatment for MS.

Some of these natural alternatives have been proven to be very effective with a number of clinical trials giving them a go ahead. In most cases, they are majorly based on alternative therapies, total lifestyle change and change in dietary approach. The complementary therapy for instance targets to ensure that the body reduces the rate of myelin depletion, manage the symptoms and make healing process faster.

The most common forms of complementary therapy are the nutritional approach which requires change in diet and meditation which can induce relaxation in the nervous system. This in a way a way helps manage spasms, weakness and even loss of the motor control. The nutritional alternatives that are now common include reduction of protein diet an replacing all animal protein with plant protein, eliminating milk diet, increase ginger intake, increasing the intake of organically grown vegetable and fruits, omega 3 fatty acids from fish, hemp seeds, walnuts and flax among several others.

The other aspects that have been found to work nutritionally include cutting on protein intake and replacing animal protein with plant protein, increase in intake of omega 3 from fish oil, focus on more vegetable and fruits intake particularly the organically grown ones and eliminating milk and its derivatives from diet. In the same manner, you should focus on ginger, flax, walnut, hemp seeds, turmeric and avoiding polyunsaturated oils.

There is also active supplementation approach where supplements are used to directly increase the minerals and other elements that might be lacking in the body system. The idea is to improve the immune system so that the body can protect itself from myelin sheath destruction. In this category there are several supplements and medicinal herbs that have been used for long.

Other than these, exercises and yoga are other natural ways being exploited in control and management of MS. This however requires about 6 month continuous engagement to be even effective. According to some research the physical activity reduces fatigue which goes long way in managing the condition.

The exercises and yoga are also used although this requires longer duration of time, in most cases, taking up to 6 months. However, at the end of it all, it reduces fatigue and indeed increases the healing process.

There is no conclusion in regards to how natural treatment for MS works. What is known however is that most of the above discussed methods have some significant effect in its management and reduction. Despite, most of the natural alternatives that have to do with diet approach and exercise are completely safe and are completely safe to try out.
