Loved Ones who support someone with MS Community Group
This group is meant for those who help someone with MS. This would include family, good friends, spouses and caregivers. It is a place to exchange good ideas that may help us in caring for those we love that have this disease.
Most have read my posts about my thoughts that MS may be a malabsoprtion/ metabolic problem.
I have written that reducing allergens, gluten, alcohol and anything high sugar seems to help him.
Well here is a recent study that found the below results.
'Sugar and progression: .. a small study from Drs. Wael Richeh, Jesus Lovera and colleagues at Louisiana State University gives food for thought. They asked whether blood sugar is linked to levels of MS disability, and
** found that people with higher levels of glucose were more likely to have higher levels of disability. This important lead needs more study to prove a role for blood sugar in MS progression. (Abstract P04.130) "

If you feel this is something you want to look into then discuss it with a dietitian...or throw this idea in the round file.
What are your thoughts?
