It seems likely that some sort of infection is a contributing factor to multiple sclerosis (MS), but that in no way, shape or form indicates that it is the cause of MS. It would merely be the trigger.

It seems equally clear that providing a strong foundation of health practices is frequently helpful in causing this disease to go into remission.

Our staff has seen a significant number of our MS patients go into complete remission after applying these foundational approaches. At this time, I remain highly confident that our approach will consistently help the vast majority of people with mild MS go into complete remission.

However, as with any illness, the more the disease has progressed, the more difficult it is to turn around. At this time our success rate is limited if patients already have impairment that prevents them from walking properly.

Does our approach involve supplements? Hardly, unless you qualify cod liver oil as a supplement. I classify it more as a food. Occasionally we will use supplements, but our approach nearly always factors down to two major strategies:

Diet Optimization and Emotional Balancing

The first step is the eating plan. I have recently revised the plan to reflect my support of Metabolic Typing principles that individualize the program based upon individual biochemistry. The other major strategy is to use large amounts of raw foods as healing agents, especially raw proteins and fats (eggs are a prime example).

Our center has an incredible staff of five therapists that employ a variety of different emotional and energetic balancing techniques, which have been profoundly effective in this area. EFT is one of our major tools, though we use a number of other techniques as well. You can learn the basic methods behind EFT by using our recently updated free guide, or for a more in-depth look my EFT Series is available on DVD or VHS.

Please recognize that I never advocate the use of interferon. It does not treat the underlying cause and is a prescription for disaster, as it will allow the underlying cause to progress while holding the "symptoms" at bay. Fortunately, many people’s bodies are wise enough to reject this approach right off the bat.

Please also recognize that there are clearly other external, environmental issues, such as toxic chemicals and heavy metals like mercury, which contribute to MS. You can read the related article in this issue for more details. However, my experience is that if you help your body by optimizing diet and emotional stances it is typically able to regulate its detoxification mechanisms to minimize these external factors. However, it is still important to take proactive steps to address ongoing exposures to toxins.
