Need input from pros!

[Guest guest]

I just came across this by accident. It is making sense to me only because the only disease I can trace in my family is diabetes(grandfather had it from 25yrs. old) http://www.themcfox.com/HEALTH/multiple_sclerosis/cause_of_ms.htm

Can I have your thoughts on this ?

What causes MS?

The myelin sheath is fuel for the nerve. (Yes, I do understand axons and saltatory conduction, ions channels and structures, etc, etc.)If you are a critic, try to disprove the above statement that the myelin sheath acts as a fuel reserve for the nerve. You can't, I guarantee it!There is however, MUCH supporting evidence - for example:

 (MS aside) nerves do not have to be myelinated to function -i.e. the peripheral nervous system.

 Myelinated nerves have conduction speeds far in excess of non-myelinated nerves indicating some form of additional fuelling.

 Interestingly, victims of lightning strikes suffer demyelination as a consequence.

 There is NO evidence that the cause of multiple sclerosis is bacterial, viral, fungal, environmental, genetic, prion; or any other emerging new areas.

 There is evidence that both diet and stress can influence both the severity of exacerbations and the eventual outcome.

So what's going on? What is causing multiple sclerosis?

Simple. The nerves are using up the fuel (the myelin sheath) faster than it can be replaced.This applies equally to the diabetic and hypoglycaemic patient (many MS'rs are borderline if not clinically hypoglycaemic - there is also evidence supporting the view that last-ditch, epinephrine-controlled hypoglycaemia is prevalent in many with MS - please research endocrinology to understand what I mean by this).It's a sugar-regulatory dysfunction - which is why many similarities are being found with diabetes and multiple sclerosis and also why stress figures so largely in MS. (Stress hormones cause the body to both release and to use much more available sugar, thereby depriving the myelin of replenishment during prolonged periods of stress).But diabetes is too much sugar, right?Yes, correct, but it's too much sugar in the blood. It isn't getting to where it's needed - the myelin sheath. (Diabetics need insulin to move the sugar from the blood to the muscles and liver.)So, if I have MS, all I need is more sugar?Absolutely NOT! You can't process the stuff properly. You need to adjust your diet as indicated above.What about the saturated fats and stuff then?Ah, this is where it gets to the "Fermat's Last Theorem" part ... I just don't have the time right now to delve into the intricacies. You have to try to understand Hydrogen Deficit Disorder to realise what's going on with the fats.I'm writing this in the hope that the research and Multiple Sclerosis bodies purportedly supporting and funding "vital" research will actually scrape together enough to fund a (one, single) researcher for a year or so to actually have a hard look - the evidence is there if you know what to look for - I've personally collected 100's of Mb's of the stuff and would be happy to answer each and every question.

 

Fermat's Last Theorem:Fermat was a mathematician of great renown who lived around the 17th century (guesstimate). Anyway, he kept a journal of his work and in one of the margins he wrote that he'd discovered the proof that a mathematical formula was true but he didn't have time to write it down. He never did - he died before he could elaborate and it took several hundred years and millions of math-hours to finally prove it to be true.
