Say Goodbye to Sciatica Nerve Pain in 5 Minutes

Discover how to get to the root of sciatica pain and take your recovery to the next level.

Saka is a problem with the sciatic nerve the sciatic nerve is the longest and largest nerve in the body if you look at the width of your thumb okay that’s usually the width of that nerve uh where it comes out and it comes out of the lower back and the sacrum okay and there’s five nerves that form this one stic nerve and when we have a problem with that nerve that’s called sciatica now there are some great wonderful stretches that you can find on the internet I’ve done vide on that which are great for stica but the problem is what happens later in the day or the next day when it comes right back so today we’re going to talk about what we can do to actually correct this problem um without having to use medication but you still want to do the stretches as well all right so what do we know about cica well we know 90% of the time it involves the disc and the dis is basically it has an outside and it has an inside the inside is like a little jelly donut and what happens when the outer part of that disc uh gets weakened some of that uh jelly can kind of squeeze out and that can put pressure on part of the nerve roots that make up the stic nerve and then you have pain either in your butt or it travels down the back of the leg all the way down to the foot or the outer part of the leg and sometimes it’s not just like severe pain it could be a numbness it could be a burning could be a gnawing like a deep kind of irritating type sensation the reason I’m even doing this video is that I found this condition that was interesting to me because I haven’t really heard about it before um and that condition is called Milo neuropathy myON neuropathy what does that mean that’s m y e l o Milo well that word means the marrow of your spinal column and that’s composed of like a lot of different nerves that come up and down the spinal column and then they come out and neuropathy means some type of damage to the Nerf so this condition myON neuropathy is really combination of a problem in the spinal column and the nerves that come out called the peripheral nerves and this can give you a lot of different uh nerve problems including a lot of sensory nerve problems like I just mentioned like the burning the gnawing the numbness severe pain and even weakness in the muscle because these nerves connect with muscles but what really interests me about this condition that I never heard before is that it’s a copper deficiency most of the time or a vitamin E or fola deficiency but the majority of the time it’s a copper deficiency so I started looking at Copper in relationship to the stic nerve and I found some fascinating information number one there’s all sorts of different types of therapy that use copper for inflammation and pain like copper bracelets copper patches copper cream and even a a brace that you could wrap around your upper hip area that can cover the stic nerve at lease the origin of the satic nerve and it’s laced with copper and a lot of people are reporting amazing results with that and we don’t really know exactly why copper can help pain and inflammation and I’m talking about just topically putting it on the body I mean something could be actually potentially kind of being absorbed maybe but maybe not but I know copper is a very conductive um metal and so maybe it does something with the electrical fields that are out of balance in the area of pain I don’t know and there’s not hardly any research on this at all but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t work I mean the amount of people that are reporting great relief from this I mean I’m talking about skeptical people is quite large so I’m not just going to wait for the next study or someone to invest in the study to prove that it might work because it’s a very uh lowrisk non-toxic relatively inexpensive thing that anyone can do and even in ancient Egyptian times they use copper copper bracelets copper jewelry for their pain inflammation and arthritis and since we’re on the topic of arthritis the Arthritis Foundation uh said that there’s no validity to using these copper bracelets or even magnetic bracelets so you know you want to try it because whatever they say not to do usually is going to work very well simply because of who funds these organizations right drug companies I don’t know for all I know they probably started these some of these foundations now that’s using copper externally but what about copper deficiency what does that have to do with anything well it has to do with a lot because it’s involved with quite a few different enzymes and what of the enzymes that create a big impact in Saka is the enzyme that uses copper as an essential co-actor for building collagen and connective tissue and guess what is your disc made of collagen well yeah 75% of the outer part of that disc is made from collagen so if you’re deficient in collagen could it be possible that you can have a weakness within the disc now copper is also used in enzymes that involve nerves okay the nervous system nerve transmission and even myin that protects the nerve so a lot of things start lining up uh in relationship to looking at a copper deficiency and potentially having a sciatic type problem I know other people might develop like carpal tunnel syndrome when they have a copper deficiency as well so copper is essential for collagen and I’ve done other videos on collagen before and talking about how important vitamin C is is in making collagen but guess what uh if you look at nature copper makes a part of that vitamin C complex so we have copper for collagen and connected tissue we also have copper for the nervous system certain parts of your brain have very high levels of copper dopamine this is why there’s usually a copper deficiency when a person has Parkinson’s involving dopamine and we know dopamine involves the nerve muscle connection and issues with that copper is also involved in making energy helping you sleep also in making melanin which helps prevent graying of the hair it’s also involved with red blood cells and we’re going to come back to that in in a second it’s involved in the formation a bone and is an antioxidant so how would someone become deficient in Copper well a lot of people are deficient in Copper from various reasons uh one is they don’t have enough copper in the diet which I will get into like what foods are high in that but it’s it’s really high in the shellfish and organ Meats which two things that people don’t consume a lot of also athletes are usually low in Copper because they’re doing a lot of physical exercise that use up a lot of energy that require an increased demand of copper and especially if they’re doing exercise at higher altitudes because that involves uh strain on the red blood cell but the more exercise you do the more copper you’re going to need and you can imagine if an athlete is really working out and they’re not eating right they can end up with a copper deficiency and then have a weakness within the connective tissue or collagen and um create a a problem with the tendons ligaments muscles and discs now also if you take a lot of zinc okay without the opposing mineral copper you can create a copper deficiency as well also if you take a lot of iron you can deplete your copper uh there’s many different reasons why enriched flour products as in the breads the pasta type foods can deplete copper fluoride from your tap water uh definitely depletes copper too much vitamin C but mainly in the form of ascorbic acid sometimes people do certain remedies where they’re taking like certain like maybe maybe two or three or four grams of scorc acid that’s going to deplete your copper as well a lot of sweating can deplete your copper because copper can come out through the sweat too much uh suntanning can actually deplete your copper because of the connection with melanin melani
