Guest guest Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 , I need to know what you are taking and how much. I will try anything right now. I have Multiple Sclerosis and had most of a brain tumor removed. I was exposed to Stachybotrys Mold and it seems like my 140 IQ has dropped somewhere around 12. LOL! Rosie, you are very informed on things like this....do you think it would help me? Thanks, Marcie kl_clayton <kl_clayton@...> wrote: Okay, this is experimental, but nutritional. There is some evidence that certain kinds of fats are required for neural rebuilding, and the ratio is important. The myelin sheath, I think is made from fatty tissue of some kind. So, I am taking some omega 3 supplementation to try to help offset the neural damage I have suffered from the mold exposure. I am using flax oil, and now that my digestion is working again from the antifungals, I am digesting it too. This was recommended to me by a professional that works with people having brain damage, usually from trauma, but he rec. it for my obvious mental impairment from the mold. He thought my symptoms looked like those suffering from the sheath deteriorating, or something like that. I have not taken it long enough to tell the difference, or at the dosage required, it is yucky. Anyone else? > > YES, DEFINITELY, JOHN. I'M " PRETTY COMPLETELY DEMYELINATED " ON MY SPINAL > CORD.

Guest guest Posted November 15, 2005 Report Share Posted November 15, 2005 I think that there is a very good chance that some mycotoxins could damage the mechanisms in your body that perform the conversion of flaxseed oil omega 3s into DHA and EPA. So you are better off just taking good quality fish oil. Unless you are a vegetarian. In which case.. I dont think fish oil is vegetarian.. I have read that eating lots of DHA/EPA (fish oil) dramatically improves your chance of surviving a challenge by some kinds of infectious diseases.. Fish oil AND flaxseed oil together also helps (but not as much as the same amount of fish oil alone) But this is for some diseases only.. the study was not about mycotoxins or neural rebuilding.. But I really think your friend's logic is sound.. Very sound. I think that you are onto something there.. Even if it doesnt leave you where you started, (and speaking from personal experience, I am sure it wont.) I think it will help. You would have a strong possibility of ending up somewhere better than if you had ignored these ideas and passively suffered. Thats basically what Ive been trying to do. Antioxidants ?.. Like lots of good old Vitamin C, E, ... Quercetin, etc.. Have you ever heard of huperzine A, Bacopa monnieri? Idebenone? **acetyl-l-carnitine?** Hydergine? Piracetam? Hi-dose Vitamin B12?
