Could Multiples Sclerosis Be Caused By Over-Acidification?
I recently had someone ask me about Multiple Sclerosis (“MS”) who wanted to know if we have a different perspective on it than conventional medical science does.
In looking at imbalances like MS from the perspective of “New Biology” (which includes the research of my good friend and mentor Dr. Robert O. Young, the research of Dr. Bruce Lipton, and others), there is very often a different interpretation which takes into account much more than the 400 year old view of physics and biology that conventional medicine seams to be stuck in.
Your Nervous System Is Like Insulated Wiring
First of all, it is important to note that your nervous system is made up mostly of fats (lipids) and, according to Dr. Robert O. Young’s research, the body uses “fats” as a buffer of acidity in the body.
Real MS, from the “new” perspective, is when something called the “Myelin Sheath” is damaged from over-acidity. The Myelin Sheath is an electrically insulating phospholipid (“fatty”) layer that surrounds the axons of many neurons (its kind of like the rubber coating on a power cord that keep the electricity contained traveling forward rather then shooting out all over the place).
The main function of a myelin sheath is an increase in the speed at which electrical impulses transmit and spread along the “myelinated fiber”. Along “unmyelinated fibers” (which are any of the nerve fibers that lack a fatty sheath) impulses move continuously as waves, but, in myelinated fibers, they hop or advance quickly by leaps. Myelin increases resistance across the cell membrane by a factor of 5,000 and decreases the ability to collect a charge of electricity by a factor of 50 (so the impulses keep moving and are not absorbed). Myelination also helps prevent the electrical current from leaving the axon.
When a peripheral fiber is severed, the myelin sheath provides a track along which regrowth can occur so it is essential for the body to be able to repair itself. Myelin is composed of about 80% lipid fat and about 20% protein…remember that fat is a major buffer of acidity!!
From the perspective of the New Biology the loss of the myelin sheath insulating the nerves, otherwise known as “demyelination”, is caused by ascetic and other acids stripping this “fatty sheath” off of the nerves and when myelin degrades, conduction of signals along the nerve can be impaired or lost, and the nerve eventually withers. Again, one of Dr. Young’s foundational theories is that the body uses fat as a primary buffer of acidity. This is the hallmark of so called neurodegenerative autoimmune diseases like multiple sclerosis.
The Role Of The Immune System
Medical Science believes that the immune system plays a role in the demyelination associated with such diseases as MS, but the New Biology does not support this idea.
The predominant theory of medical Science today is that MS results from attacks by an individual’s immune system on the nervous system and it is therefore usually categorized as an autoimmune disease. From the perspective of the New Biology, it is actually caused by consuming excess sugar, carbohydrates, artificial sweeteners, heavy metal poisoning, and even from toxins that come from taking medication which may include toxins like mercury…even very small amounts of mercury have been shown to be particularly destructive to nerve sheaths.
Medical Science mistakenly perceives White Blood Cells (the immune system) to be like an army of soldiers who are mobilized to attack an enemy. Therefore, in conditions like MS and other “autoimmune diseases”, medical science perceives that the White Blood Cells are “attacking” the immune system.
However, if you observe living White Blood Cells actually doing their work you can see that they are actually more like house keepers and street sweepers who travel around the body in and around all tissues, organs, and systems and clean up the garbage and then deliver that garbage to the dump which is the liver, lymphatic system, etc.
So the question is, would you send a garbage collector or housekeeper to fight in a war? Me neither!! The idea that you could or would send a garbage collector or a house keeper to war in order to fight an enemy is not only ridiculous, but it simply doesn’t make any sense at all.
What Is MS?
Multiple sclerosis is an inflammatory disease (inflammation is just another word for acidity because it is caused by acidity) that affects the central nervous system and causes a variety of symptoms, including changes in sensation, visual problems, muscle weakness, depression, difficulties with coordination and speech, severe fatigue, short term memory loss, problems with balance, over heating and pain. MS will cause impaired mobility and disability in more severe cases.
Multiple sclerosis affects neurons, the cells of the brain and spinal cord that carry information, create thought and perception, and allow the brain to control the body.
The name multiple sclerosis refers to the multiple scars (or scleroses) on the myelin sheaths. This scarring causes symptoms which vary widely depending upon which signals are interrupted therefore, whenever a patient is experiencing many symptoms that medical science can’t otherwise fit into a particluar diagnosis, they tend to use MS as the “Multiple Symptom” diagnosis…meaning it is often misdiagnosed because it is used as the “throwback diagnosis”.
Regeneration With Healthier Cells
Every cell in the body regenerates itself over time, especially when the body receives the proper resources which is plenty of living waters and living foods like green vegetables and healthy fats (specifically, pure water, chlorophyll, alkaline minerals, essential fats, soluble and insoluble fiber, and plant based amino acids), which not only neutralize acids but provide the raw materials for building new red blood cells and therefore body cells including nerves and the Myelin Sheath.
In practicing the principles of Alkaline Nutritional Science, these kinds of foods and resources are consumed in the majority of ones diet while supporting proper digestion, assimilation, and elimination.
