Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a progressive, degenerative condition which affects the nervous system. Multiple sclerosis (MS) destroys the myelin sheaths surrounding nerves in the brain and spinal cord, the myelin sheaths are needed to protect these vital nerves which are responsible for the effective transmission of nerve impulses. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is thought to be an autoimmune disease which symptoms tend to vary between mild to severe, a host of causes such as genetic susceptibility, environmental toxins, living in a temperate climate, diet and the Epstein-Barr virus have all been linked to Multiple sclerosis (MS). The fact is the real cause of multiple sclerosis (MS) is unknown. The most common symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS) is numbness and tingling in the hand and toes, one side of the face and trunk of the body, loss of coordination in the hands or legs, weakness in the muscles, problems with eyesight, problems with walking, loss of bladder control, tiredness in the limbs, mood swings, slurred speech, clumsiness and loss of bowel control. Diet change can help with multiple sclerosis (MS); studies have shown that levels of linoleic acid which is an essential fatty acid is low in individuals who suffer from multiple sclerosis (MS). Eating oily fish such as mackerel, salmon, trout, sardines and tuna, eating more seeds and nuts, using extra-virgin olive oil for cooking and taking high doses of evening primrose oil supplements should help with multiple sclerosis (MS). Reports from Dr. Roy Swank suggest that a low-fat diet is beneficial to those who are suffering from multiple sclerosis (MS). Other studies have also shown that multiple sclerosis (MS) suffers who had large amounts of saturated animal fats in their diet died from the disease earlier than those who had low amounts of saturated fats. Another report found that those who eat plenty of fish and vegetables and fruit were less likely to get multiple sclerosis (MS) and suffered less if they already had it. All these reports suggest that a vegetarian type diet with plenty of oily fish is the best diet for those who are suffering from Multiple sclerosis (MS). Toxins have been linked to multiple sclerosis (MS) especially mercury, if you suffer from multiple sclerosis (MS) and have amalgams fillings it may be wise to get a specialist dentist who is an expert in removing amalgams filling to remove yours. Other environmental toxins which have been linked to multiple sclerosis (MS) are tobacco smoke, insecticides and organic solvents. If you are suffering from multiple sclerosis (MS) the best supplement to take are evening primrose oil, selenium, magnesium, manganese, vitamin B complex, vitamin C, vitamin E, black cohosh, Echinacea, ginseng, St Johns Wort and valerian. The following supplements may help if you are suffering from Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
