Living With Brown-Sequard Syndrome

I had a question the other day about Brown-Sequard syndrome.

This is a rare neurological condition leading to weakness or paralysis affecting one side of your body, accompanied by a loss of sensation on the opposite side.

These problems are associated with a lesion in your spinal cord which in turn may be the result of a spinal cord tumor, injury to your neck or back, a blocked blood vessel causing ischemia (oxygen deprivation) to the area, or an underlying disease like tuberculosis or multiple sclerosis.

To deal with Brown-Sequard syndrome it’s beneficial to:

*Drink 10 cups of purified water daily to hydrate and flush toxins.

*The prognosis for people with Brown-Sequard syndrome depends on the underlying cause.  Treatment therefore usually focuses on identifying and, if possible, removing the cause.  Early treatment with high doses of steroids may be beneficial as well.

*Avoid consuming too much salt or protein, and get protein from vegetable sources.

*Avoid large doses of vitamin A, niacin, and iron from supplements.  However, it’s fine to get these nutrients from food.

*Drink pure organic pomegranate juice daily.

*Consume 1/4 cup of tomato sauce or 3 medium-sized tomatoes per day.

*Herbs and herbal products beneficial for Brown-Sequard syndrome include butcher’s broom, cayenne, dandelion, hawthorn, and valerian root.

*Make sure your diet is well balanced and contains plenty of fiber.

*Eat fish several times a week.

*Eat plenty of raw foods.  For protein, eat broiled fish and skinless turkey and chicken, which are low in fat.

*Include garlic and onions in your diet.

*Eat plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables.

*Add raw nuts (except peanuts), olive oil, pink salmon, trout, tuna, Atlantic herring, and mackerel to your diet.  These foods contain omega-3 essential fatty acids.

*Don’t consume stimulants, like coffee and black tea, containing caffeine.  Also avoid tobacco, alcohol, chocolate, sugar, butter, red meat, fats, fried foods, processed and refined foods, soft drinks, spicy foods, and white flour products, like white bread.

*Keep your weight down.

*Avoid stress.

*Understand your medications and possible side effects.
