I am new here and glad I have found this group. It's refreshing to

know that there are other people out there who beleive in alternative

performed one mri and did not run any other tests. The mri showed a

few brain lesions so the doctor recommended that I start taking

injections for MS right away. I refused to take the medicine and

like most people here I was trying to find out what was causing my MS

so I could treat the cause. I changed my diet and started taking

supplements and I was doing Yoga and seemed to be fine for a year and

a half. I never looked into other things like lyme disease, candida

and many other things that could have been the cause. Anyway, Now I

am having an attack again and I have an apppointment with an

alternative doctor who is also an MD. I am going to have her check

for lyme and candida. Does anyone have any suggestions about what

other tests can be done? I really do NOT want to take conventional

medicine used to treat MS and I definitely do NOT want to take

Steroids for the attack I'm having now but I really need to recover

from this attack so can anyone recommend an anti inflammatory other

than steroids? I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks,

Shea

I'll have to support pineapple and turmeric. I have used both with

excellent results. I still use Turmeric daily, Rexall brand. Some brands work

better than others. I take 3,000mg a day, but I had to start off with just

450mg

twice a day due to feeling effects of die-off (it kills some pathogens). I

love this stuff so much. It is incredible. I give it to my entire family, and

it's currently the core herb to decrease everyone's symptoms. Pineapple has

some great enzymes in it that are reported to be extremely healing. I used

to drink it when I got colds, and it really worked. But now, I am going to

start buying it again (forgot about it), because its a geat food/juice to add

to one's diet, and I keep reading about its wonderful healing enzymes.

Oh, there are plenty!

Turmeric and pineaple are good, then there is cinnamon, ginger (raw

preferably), primrose oil, cayenne pepper, cicrummin, olive oil, red

grapes, garlic, onions, flax seeds and more

Just be careful, for many of them are spices, i.e. highly acidic. I

overdid it once and had heart burn for two days.

Fast recovery to you Shea!

Proteolytic enzymes such as papain, bromelain, serrapeptase, amylase, lipase,

rutin, and amla  are effective tools against inflammatory conditions. 

Nuclear factor-kappa B is a key modulator in inflammatory conditions and cancer,

promoting inflammation and progression of the conditions.  Proteolytic enzymes

such as bromelain, etc. inactivate NF-kappaB,  slowing progression of

inflammatory conditions.

For documentation and medical study references- see the Jan 2008 issue of

Vitamin Research News, Vol 22, No. 1.     This weekly journal is available

electronically for free from www.vrp.com

VRPs enzyme product " Unizyme " is a very effective combination of all of these

proteolytic enzymes.  All with inflammatory conditions should be taking some

type of proteolytic enzyme product.   While it is possible and good to use

real foods and whole foods for nutrients,  unless one has a diet like Alison's

with mostly raw varied veges and fruits, it is very difficult to get enough of

these proteolytic enzymes for those with chronic conditions without using a

supplement.
