Multiple Sclerosis Causes - Comments

When we look at multiple sclerosis causes and the summary of MS research, you will certainly agree with me that one thing is clear: multiple sclerosis causes are still a collection of assumptions lacking definite, proven results.

Because of that, I will put further possibilities for discussion.

Regarding the destruction of the myelin sheath, I said already on our myelin site that chemicals have a fat solving effect and are able to dissolve and destroy the myelin. Why does nobody look into this direction?

It's because of the system.

Medical research has primarily the purpose of discovering and developing drugs to treat health disorders. Assumed I am right that chemicals destroy the myelin it will be impossible to treat this with other chemicals.

What about the bacteria/virus theory?

It could be possible but then it should actually have been also possible to isolate this virus after decades of research and develop a treatment against provided it's one of the multiple sclerosis causes. If it's swine flue they have a vaccine almost immediately at their fingertips. In case of MS, they fail for long to develop one not to talk of finding a treatment to cure MS.

There is another possibility.

The organism detects any destruction in its system and tries to repair it. The destruction of myelin is such a case. Maybe they are right and it is caused by inflammation. Then it is normal that white blood cells, T-cells appear, as they are involved in fighting inflammatory processes independent of whether these inflammations are caused by viruses or something else.

Questionable however appears whether T-cells affect the myelin at all. They remain in the areas of inflammation as long as they continue and keep trying to stop the inflammation but without result. This is then wrongly interpreted as an autoimmune reaction.

That in the area of lesions macrophages are to be found, is normal, as they are involved in the healing process of wounds.

It's hard to believe that T-cells and macrophages should attack the own system. It's also possible that it's a misinterpretation.

I have been always a lateral thinker and thanks to people like many others, and me progress has been possible. Because of this ability, we drive cars, planes fly in the sky and we use the Internet.

Medical scientists have been too often mistaken. So we should be careful in accepting everything they present as the only and ultimate truth.

Once physicians used mercury as the treatment for various diseases and they defended it persistent. Today we know that it is a poison and damages our health.

Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis (1819-1865) discovered in the middle of the 19th century that the incidences of puerperal fever could be drastically cut by the use of hand disinfection.

Despite his discovery and extraordinary success in reducing childbed fever by hand disinfection, he was attacked by his colleagues. Only at the beginning of the 20th century, i.e. more than 50 years later hand disinfection became popular with physicians.

The simpler a solution the more difficult it is accepted by our scientific establishment.

Fact is however the following.

You can often read allergies would be autoimmune reactions whereby the chance to be cured would be low. My experience with patients is that allergies can be treated easily with diet. The success rate is 99 percent. One percent experiences significant improvement.

I had severe allergies and asthma. When nothing else helped anymore, changing my diet did help and cured me within 3 months - completely.

Something else is also fact.

There is no correlation in first line between MS and latitude as far as it concerns exposure to sunshine causing the body to build vitamin D naturally. Actually, vitamin D is not even a vitamin but a prohormone. Only the metabolism transfers it into a hormone.

Of course, it sounds very logical especially against the background that you find the majority of MS patients north and south of the 40th degree latitude with the core area in the northern hemisphere. Interestingly enough, in Asia MS is hardly to find. Above all, it is an easy explanation.

The big difference in equatorial countries is that...

  • they are economically underprivileged compared to industrial countries.

  • they are unable to buy all the junk food offered in industrialized nations.

  • they eat very different and more natural.

In autumn of 2009, I was in a mission in Uganda. In the capital Kampala a few bigger supermarkets offer imported foods. These are so horrible expensive that only few can buy them. Less privileged people can't afford it at all.

The difference in diet

Outside Kampala, you find small stores and few smaller supermarkets selling convenience goods. What you find a lot are farmer's markets offering tons of fruit and vegetables. That's what they eat most. This is equal in all less privileged countries. Most of them are around the equator.

How does nutrition look like in industrial nations? Lots of fat, mostly of animal origin, mountains of meat and meat products, much fish, bakery products, pasta, fast food, and junk food.

The difference is obvious, isn't it? These foods are multiple sclerosis causes and many more disorders that are chronic.

Fish oil

To complete the multiple sclerosis causes, some say it's fish oil due to findings that MS is less common in coastal areas of Norway than in the heartland. If there would be a correlation, why is this different in Sweden and Finland? Both countries have a long coastline and a fishing industry.

Truth is...

Food plays the major role in the development MS. The right diet provided, it's the key to cure MS.

Nevertheless, researchers around the world work on multiple sclerosis causes and the influence of vitamin D. In the meantime, they could prove to some degree a correlation between them. The number of participants in these studies is however quite small.

We are also doing some research on vitamin D focusing on how to increase its supply in the most natural way.

We all add to putting the puzzle together. In the end, we want to serve you in restoring your health.

Please get me right. I'm not suggesting underestimating vitamin supply in your diet. That would be fatal. What I suggest instead is to avoid seeing the lack of certain vitamins as the cause of a disease. Things are more complex.

When it comes to health and curing diseases, I give importance to the vitamin supply, as it is essential for good health. Unfortunately, most people get too little of them as of many nutrients in general.

I teach my clients how to cover their need of vitamins and minerals from natural sources instead of taking expensive artificial substitutes. It makes a significant difference in their impact.

A big mistake is to see the supply of vitamin D isolated. This is a dead end. 

To say it repeatedly, multiple sclerosis causes are not some "isolated ingredients". MS is a multilayer disease of complex causes and we need to see the whole picture.

Engrave the following sentence deep into your mind and take it very serious:

Many diseases of our time are the result of a biochemical imbalance of the human organism caused by diet.

Dietetic treatment it is a holistic process. It influences many aspects of the body at the same time, restores the biochemical balance and eliminates multiple sclerosis causes altogether.
