What you are doing is great for the MS community. I would hate to be living with this condition before the internet was invented. I take Vitamin D, omega 3, coq10 and ALA. I get my omega 3 via fish oil but now i will need to have a look into flaxseed oil. Hopefully 1 day we will have a supplement that will stimulate the growth of new myelin.

[@DrBrandonBeaber]

Fish Oil may be equal if not better than flaxseed oil despite my personal biases. If I hear about a supplement proven to stimulate the growth of new myelin, I will definitely make a video on it :)

[@hamaarahof5712]

Just wondering if you found changes from using ALA. I have used it in the past, thinking it is diabetic neuropathy (still could also be) and had great results. Also had to reduce the insulin amounts. Germany does high does of Alpha Lipoic Acid with great success for treatment of diabetic neuropathy. I am also trying to learn more on Glutathion, since it is one big anti-inflammatory supplement. Even if they were to officially confirm the MS diagnosis next year (after next MRI), I could probably not afford the co-pay for a DMT. The biggest problem is the speed this is progressing now, within weeks to month less able to stand/walk and now my arms also get week. If I wait another year, it may not be reverseable. Some things have improved after a few month again, so it can not be loss of axons due to blood sugar levels. I also have cancer history and the tumor markers are up in the spinal fluid, but they ruled out brain tumors. Just one more reason why they take a diagnosis slow I suppose.

[@mettejensen8653]

I am being checked every year with a brain scan by the MS department of my local hospital because I have had servere attack like periods several time and have lesions in my brain. Not diagnosed though. Because of my son's B12 deficiency, which he started getting injections for in 2019, I looked into B12 deficiency and found out HOW similar the symptoms of MS and B12 deficiency are. I started taking high dosage B12 pills and started having B12 injections in 2020 and am now selfinjecting about twice a week and still take high dosage of 5000 mcg methylcobalamin lozenges. B12 made a dramatic difference to my symptoms, and I have not had a bad attack period since 2020. I have periods of diziness and/or brain fog but nothing with ataxia like gait, nocturnal bad vibration in head, shaking etc. etc. I find that potassium is ultra important too because B12 lowers it and enough methylfolate and lactoferrin+ vitamin C. I also take high dosage vitamin D3 with K2 some periods but that has not made the same difference at all as B12. I also have a very small amount of CBD oil 3% every night (since 2019) and a fair amount of magnesium. I eat quite a lot of fatty fish (canned sardines mostly).

Not all supplements are created equal. They don’t share the same absorption value, potency, or efficacy. R-lipoic acid, cod liver oil, flax seed to name a few are closer to their natural state and are better recognized by the body. The risks of where the products are derived and manufactured are to be considered .

Most of the "light" from the sun is invisible and near-infrared. That has biological effects different than UV rays and it normally penetrates clothing, flesh, and bone to a large degree, but most glass is opaque to it, meaning being outside provides it in winter while clothed as long as you are outside, while natural UV light exposure is always negligible in winter.

[@hamaarahof5712]

Unofficially got my diagnosis last week, but the MS clinic will wait a year for anther MRI with a more advanced scanner, as I am also a diabetic. However, symptoms are left sided and improve over time, as well was told a positive Babinski test and a few other symptoms are not diabetic neuropathy (including left side of the face and spasms even in my mouth and MS hugs). Also the EMG confirmed sensory loss, weakness on my left side and damage to the long nerves in my left arm and leg (CNS), not peripheral like in just diabetic neuropathy. Likely both things going on, is the question. I understand why officially confirming MS is complicated, but it leaves me without treatment. So GP is on board with a naturpathic approach. Thinking of trying high doses of Alpha Lipoic Acid and Glutathion. Alpha Lipoic Acid in the past really help with pain in my foot and balanced my blood sugar levels even more. They are thankfully reasonably well controlled and so no other concerns with eyes and kidneys. My own MS patients often tell me (from nursing) that things started for them exactly the same way. Where as I never in 30 years of nursing have I seen a diabetic patient with these kind of symptoms, only nerve pain, loss of feeling and with that not healing wounds, but that is thankfully not the case for me. I had several emergency doctors, chiropractor and physiotherapist that said MS, of course only the MS neurologist can diagnose this officially. So IF the naturpatic supplements help, they may actually never diagnose this officially. BUT if this means I get out of the wheelchair again, it will be worth it;0)

Dr B, great informative video as always! Couple questions and couple video suggestions: Do you recommend fish oil supplement AND flax seed oil? Or just flax seed oil? If fish oil, what is your opinion on recommended dosage scale? Video suggestions: Mesenchymal stem cells for those who are not in progressive stage yet. Ursolic acid supplement

[@DrBrandonBeaber]

I would just suggest either Fish oil or flax oil oil since they achieve the same thing. OMS recommends people with MS to take 20 - 40 mls of flaxseed oil per day, but there is no real data on this. I'm going to do a video on video on Dr. Sadiq's study on Mesenchymal stem cells in progressive MS, but this is just a pilot unrandomized study. I'm not sure of any data on Relapsing MS, but I think the concept is the same. I would have to do some research on ursolic acid. I believe someone else asked me about that before, but I don't know too much about it.

[@slavkacrouthamel2060]

My main recommendation is rather than buying flaxseed in ground form, buy whole seeds , grind a small quantity at home at a time , and store in the refrigerator. Whole flax seed lasts for ages but once ground (like flax seed oil itself ) the shelf life is very short and needs to be stored in the fridge to retain freshness and used reasonably quickly.
