Guest guest Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 Just thought some of you may be interested in this. I read about this in several places before I discovered the LDN. I have been taking a combination of high doses os N-Actylglucosamine (Ultimate Glucosamine) with LDN for about 6 weeks now and have notcied a remarkaable improvement in endurance, fatigue and spasticity. I also am taking M-B12 injections, but, really began to notice a difference when I added the glucosamine to the regime. All glucosamine is not created equally, so do your research. I find it interesting that a certain set of diseases; i.e. MS, Crohn, RA, Diabetes all seem to be affected by similar interventions and all seem to have as there root genesis inflamatory processes. I have been doing so much reserch and am beginning to see a pattern which gives me hope for some reversal. This is just an FYI in case anyone is interested in pursuing their own research. 2 inhibition also seems to have an impact on the same set of diseases, however, typical synthetic -2 inhibitors bring with them their own set of problems, but, aspirin was the original -2 inhibitor and I have also added 1 a day to my regime. In studies on mice, Dr. Demetriou and colleagues with the UC Irvine Center for Immunology found that N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc), which is similar but more effective than the widely available glucosamine, inhibited the growth and function of abnormal T-cells that incorrectly direct the immune system to attack specific tissues in the body, such as brain myelin in MS and insulin-producing cells of the pancreas in diabetes. Just another little tidbit from another source: inhibit the COX-2 enzyme. Those herbs include green tea, ginger, turmeric, holy basil, chamomile, Chinese goldthread, barberry, Baikal skullcap, Hu zhang (Japanese knotweed), rosemary, hops, feverfew, and oregano. A blend of the appropriate extracts of those herbs, if sufficiently concentrated, may offer substantial relief from the " fires " of COX-2 inflammation, without the known and unknown side effects of synthetic drug inhibition. And the even better news is that when these herbs inhibit the COX-2 enzyme, many of them also powerfully inhibit platelet aggregation (thus helping to prevent strokes and heart attacks) and heal ulcers.
