today I’m going to talk about a condition called Amy trophic lateral sclerosis ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease and the reason I’m going to talk about this is that I had a guy who came and wheelchair to my summits this weekend and some of you that are watching were there and it was really good to meet you and those that weren’t here hope to meet you next year but this gentleman who came to the summit was in remission for an entire year and he was just doing two of the things that I’m gonna recommend a ketogenic diet and in a minute fasting so I told him I was gonna do a more complete video to give him some additional information now when you look up this condition on the internet there are site after site they pretty much talk about the prognosis it’s a rapidly progressive neurodegenerative condition talk about you’re gonna die in three to five years talk about the symptoms muscle wasting difficulty speech respiratory failure atrophy of the muscles but they don’t really get into what to do about this condition so if you look at all the details of this condition and the fact that 30,000 people your get it well that’s that’s nice to know but we want to know how do we improve this condition and this is what I’m gonna recommend so some of the data I’m going to tell you is based on my studies so if you happen to have a gerbil or hamster and they have this condition definitely put them on this but I think this data also applies to humans is this information going to cure you I have no idea is it going to prevent the problem I don’t know I don’t even know if it’s going to improve things however I do know there’s a lot of information related to these nutrients in the support of the nervous system so the first thing I want to recommend is 20,000 I use of vitamin D I’m going to put the links down below exactly what vitamin D is it’s probably the most important thing that you can take because if you are deficient the progressive decline of your health is about four times as fast and you will not live as long so vitamin D is crucial vitamin D is not really a vitamin it’s a steroid it acts very similar to cortisol and by the way cortisol or prednisone which is a synthetic version is one of the main treatments for these autoimmune conditions the next thing I would recommend is ketones get on the healthy version of the ketogenic diet I put a link down below why because ketones support the nervous system and they protect their nervous system very important I would also recommend taking MCT oil to raise your ketones for sure just start off by taking about a half a teaspoon don’t take too much because it can create some digestive issues next scene and very very important is intermittent fasting and this is good for any type of autoimmune condition because it lowers inflammation and there is an inflammatory state in the nerve cells also when you’re doing them in fasting you get a major improvement in your immune system especially the stem cells especially if you do periodic prolonged fasting next thing is zinc very important in the immune system mostly Barre deficient also zinc will help protect against respiratory failure but when you take zinc it can throw off your copper so I recommend you get a product that has both zinc and copper together read the back the label whatever the directions say to take go ahead and follow that b12 is also important because it supports the myelin around the nerve next thing is vitamin E make sure you get a natural version a food complex vitamin E is a very powerful antioxidant when you have this autoimmune condition you’re getting a lot of oxidation a lot of free radicals and that creates a lot of collateral destruction from the inflammation so this can help mitigate that alright last thing is DHA this is a type of omega-3 fatty acid DHA makes up the structural part of the brain in the nervous system so here you are having a progressive neurodegenerative condition well why not take the raw material necessary to out feed that last thing I would recommend is to get a really good water purifier so you’re not drinking tap water because who knows what’s in the water and the chemicals that you’re exposed to you want to do organic you want to do very very healthy nutrient-dense foods and you want to minimize any exposure to chemicals alright thanks for watching if you’re liking this content please subscribe now and I will actually keep you updated on future videos
