Possible 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.

The main reason why people lose most control of their body when afflicted with MS is due to demyelination. This means that the myelin that covers most nerve endings is gradually thinning. Myelin is important for easier conduction of impulses from the brain to the other parts.

Since MS is a unique disease of the central nervous system, the symptoms that signify its presence can also differ from one to the other. The most common, however, is the decrease in control of muscle movements. This is why most MS patients have loads of coordination problems that some of them are even confined to a wheelchair.

Vision problems can also be brought about by the said condition. The disease often interferes with the white matter in the optic nerve so blindness is experienced by the vast majority. As the disease continues to worsen, patients may feel spasticity or the stiffness of the muscles. He or she may also have difficulties in controlling urine and the urges to urinate.

The real cause of the said illness is currently unknown, even though dedicated teams of medical experts have devoted most of their professional lives trying to understand the disease and come up with a really effective cure. One possible cause, according to them, is immunologic in origin yet they have not really pinpointed to which immune cell is responsible. Genetic conditions can also be one, yet they are quick to say that the illness is not really hereditary.

Patients afflicted with MS are, of the present, made to intake drugs that are believe to counter or slow down its effects. This is not applicable for everyone, however, as there is a large number of MS patients who do not respond to the said medication. Instead, they are turning into a new diet that was introduced by a well known doctor who has also been diagnosed with the said disease.

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.
