How long ago was the MS diagnosed? What other alternative practices have you done?
Any of them for an appreciable time with consistent good results (or inversely bad results when stopping)?
- "paleo" diet with the usual elimination trifecta of gluten, sugar & dairy, quit alcohol & nicotine <= this is where I was convinced it was the way when in the space of a week or so a lot of my more evident symptoms faded away
- later keto
- much later (6 years ago) carnivore diet
- more recently megadose vitamin D (~2y with breaks)
- even more recently psilocybin (full doses)
- a lot of supplementation over the years which took a long time to figure out because the space is so vast and so hard to read, at least it was back in the early '10s. Nowadays B vitamin megadoses, fish oil, some newer research findings like n-acetylglucosamine, still have a lot to explore in the peptide area for neurogenesis and myelin repair, also mineral balancing, iron management (I'm male so phlebotomy), a few popular and totally mainstream supplements researched for MS like alpha-lipoic acid
That's about it in the most condensed manner. The entire history would be about 30x the size as my supplement drawer proves, though I already threw out a lot
Things I failed at and hurt me: stress management, sleep. Doing much better nowadays but these should probably be #1.
