Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis when she was just 26 years old, 35 years later Judy Graham is still walking, working, and has successfully birthed and raised a son who is now an adult. In this totally revised and updated edition of her groundbreaking Multiple Sclerosis, first published in 1984, she shares the natural treatments that have helped her and many others with MS stabilize or even reverse the condition. Beginning with the effects of diet, she explains that many people with MS have been eating the wrong foods and shows which foods are “good” and “bad,” how to recognize food sensitivities, and how to correct nutritional deficiencies using dietary supplements. She also looks at reducing the body’s toxic overload, whether from mercury amalgam fillings, chemicals, or medications. She presents the exercises with proven benefits for MS she has found most reliable and appropriate, such as yoga, pilates, and t’ai chi, and explores alternative therapies that provide relief and support to the body’s efforts to control MS, including acupuncture, reflexology, shiatsu, reiki, and ayurveda. Most important are the insights she provides on the effects of negative thoughts on MS. She demonstrates how a positive mental attitude can actually slow down or even reverse the progression of this disease. Judy Graham is living proof that, as devastating as a diagnosis of MS is, life can still be lived to its fullest.

The Edgar Cayce Way of Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis

Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
In the summer of 1991, Dr. Dudley Delany (a now retired chiropractor, massage therapist, and registered nurse) began experiencing numbness, blurred vision, difficulty swallowing, tremors, muscle spasms, depression, fatigue, failing memory, slurred speech, and bladder dysfunction. It was multiple sclerosis, a chronic neurological disease of the brain and spinal cord that afflicts an estimated 2-1/2 million people worldwide. In the fall of that year, he began using an alternative treatment suggested by Edgar Cayce, a man many regard as the father of modern holistic medicine. It involved diet, massage, keeping a positive mental attitude, maintaining a high spiritual ideal, and consistent use of a very mild, usually imperceptible form of electrotherapy (vibratory medicine). Over a period of about two years, all of his symptoms gradually disappeared. This book documents Dr. Delany's successful conquest of MS, and it contains many easily followed recommendations potentially helpful in treating this disturbing, sometimes devastating disease. It is MUST reading for anyone with MS!
