Multiple sclerosis is a chronic disease that affects the brain and spinal cord, due to myelin damage. This damage can be caused by an autoimmune disease that brings on a number of symptoms. People with multiple sclerosis sufferer from imbalance, muscle weakness, astigmatism and tremors. Remission can occur temporarily. Thankfully today, there are ways to reverse MS, as discussed below.

One of the key elements in the reversal of multiple sclerosis is nutrition, as research has shown. That's because the mitochondria requires nutrients. The mitochondria are responsible for supplying energy to the cells, but in order to do this they need the right nutrients. The three top nutrients necessary include omega-3 fats, creatine, and coenzyme Q10.

Certain B vitamins, sulfer, and iodine are also necessary to not only slow the disease, but also to help the individual improve. Enter the Paleo Diet, which is completely different from the common Western diet that's loaded with ingredients that are certain to lead to chronic diseases. The problem with most people is that they don't get the real nutrients in their diet, and they get too much of all the bad ingredients that are harmful.

That means eating plenty of greens and sulfur-rich vegetables, as well as bright colored fruits and vegetables. It means increasing the amount of wild fish consumed, and decreasing the amount of regular red meat. Instead, people have to eat more grass fed meat, and seaweed which is rich in iodine and selenium.

But that's not all! It's absolutely necessary to stop eating any processed foods. These are loaded with ingredients that are dangerous and lead to so many illnesses. It's also necessary to stop eating starches, like corn and potatoes. Vitamin D levels should be increased, as most people are vitamin D deficient. Get out in the sun more often, use safe tanning beds, or supplement the diet with oral vitamin D.

Avoid aspartame and artificial sweeteners, which are toxic. They are responsible for causing serious chronic neurological disorders. Antioxidants are essential to brain health, and aspartame kills brain neurons because too much calcium gets into the cells.

Lifestyle changes need to be made in order to reverse MS. Along with the above recommendations, it's important to eliminate sugar, and especially fructose, pasteurized dairy products, and commercial fruit juices. Fermented vegetables and raw fruits and vegetables are extremely important to good health and for the reversal of different autoimmune diseases. At the same time, it is important to check iron levels, as too much or too little can cause a problem.

Finally, in order to reverse MS, checking one's mercury levels is important, and possibly undergoing a mercury detox. It's simply poisonous, and must be completely removed from one's body and one's diet. Large catches a fish should be completely avoided, and any dental work done with mercury must be corrected.
