Famous People with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) 3of7

Posted by admin Comments (0)

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the Central Nervous System (CNS) – that’s the brain and spinal cord. Predominantly, it is a disease of the “white matter” tissue. The white matter is made up of nerve fibres which are responsible for transmitting communication signals both internally within the CNS and between the CNS and the nerves supplying rest of the body. In people affected by MS, patches of damage called plaques or lesions appear in seemingly random areas of the CNS white matter. At the site of a lesion, a nerve insulating material, called myelin, is lost. I shall explain this process in more detail later. Clinically, MS is a hard condition to characterise because it is very unpredictable and variable. Depending on which areas of the CNS are affected and how badly they are damaged, the type and severity of symptoms can vary greatly. No two people get MS in exactly the same way and the expression of each individual’s disease is as unique as their fingerprints. However, the different courses of the disease, both within an individual and within the whole population, principally differ in their timing, location and severity. Underneath similar processes (including demyelination and sometimes other forms of nerve degeneration) are going on. Although recent research indicates that the biochemical make-up of lesions may vary between different forms of the disease, this is not the reason why people with MS (PwMS) have such widely differing symptoms

Nutrition and Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Part 1/5

Posted by admin Comments (1)

DIRECT-MS (www.direct-ms.org ) is a federally registered charity which was founded in early 1998 by families affected by MS. The main goal of the charity is to fund research that directly tests the role of nutritional factors in MS. The charity was established because the research efforts of the large MS charities such as Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada (MSSC) and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (NMSS) are focused on long term research such as genetics and molecular biology. Such topics are only very indirectly related to MS cause and will not provide persons with MS with a practical therapy for slowing or halting MS progression for decades, if ever. Thus little research is being done which will help persons with MS in the near future (5-10 years) and essentially nothing is being done in terms of nutritional factors and MS. Such a situation is not in the best interests of persons with MS and DIRECT-MS hopes to rectify this very unfortunate and potentially very harmful circumstance. nutritional recommendations summary www.direct-ms.org And also Dr Cordain’s web site: www.thepaleodiet.com There is also a very interesting interview with Dr Loren Cordain by Robert Crayhon: chetday.com

Input Needed, Awareness vs Health Care and Vlog, Plus Dr issues? CTDs, Lupus, MS, Crohns, Autoimmune

Would like viewer and subscriber input on Channel decisions… You guys are at least 90% of this channel and why we’re getting the view counts and new sub counts. Also, Doctors not understanding connective tissue and/or autoimmune diseases enough to diagnose them in a timely fashion… If you’ve gone through, are going through this, please, do not give up, you are not alone. When you see a doctor, he or she is getting paid due to you choosing their services, it’s okay to interview a doctor, to seek second, third, fourth opinions.

GN 020 Multiple Sklerose / multiple sclerosis

Posted by admin Comments (0)

Die Multiple Sklerose (MS) ist eine chronisch-entzündliche Entmarkungserkrankung des zentralen Nervensystems (ZNS), deren Ursache trotz großer Forschungsanstrengungen noch nicht geklärt ist. Bei der Multiplen Sklerose treten in der weißen Substanz von Gehirn und Rückenmark verstreut vielfache (multiple) entzündliche Entmarkungsherde auf, die vermutlich durch den Angriff körpereigener Abwehrzellen auf die Myelinscheiden der Nervenzellfortsätze verursacht werden. Da die Entmarkungsherde im gesamten ZNS auftreten können, kann die Multiple Sklerose fast jedes neurologische Symptom verursachen. Sehstörungen mit Minderung der Sehschärfe und Störungen der Augenbewegung sind relativ typisch, aber nicht spezifisch für die Multiple Sklerose. English: Multiple sclerosis (abbreviated MS, also known as disseminated sclerosis or encephalomyelitis disseminata) is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system attacks the central nervous system, leading to demyelination..Disease onset usually occurs in young adults, and it is more common in females. MS affects the ability of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord to communicate with each other. Nerve cells communicate by sending electrical signals called action potentials down long fibers called axons, which are wrapped in an insulating substance called myelin. In MS, the body’s own immune system attacks and damages the myelin. When myelin is lost, the axons can no longer effectively conduct signals. Multiple sclerosis (abbreviated

Multiple Sclerosis Research Leads to Possible Cure

Research by Dr. Mark Mannie of ECU’s Department of Microbiology and Immunology has led to a potential vaccine for Multiple Sclerosis. This same research could also lead to vaccines for other autoimmune diseases.
