Multiple sclerosis is also referred to as “Disseminated Sclerosis” or “Encephalomyelitis Disseminata”. It is an inflammatory and autoimmune disease which affects the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord). Relapsing remitting, primary progressive and secondary progressive are the three main types of multiple sclerosis. Candidiasis, environmental toxins, food allergy, viral infection, dental amalgam filling and poor diet are some factors responsible for the problem.
Symptoms of the problem include blurred vision, weak limbs, muscle spasms, fatigue, speech impediment, decreased concentration, inability to perform sequential tasks and an uncontrollable urge to laugh or weep. Further, an individual suffering from the disease may exhibit signs of memory loss, depression and paranoia. The use of different natural cures can treat the problem of multiple sclerosis.
