Dietary Nutrition & Neurological Disease

[Chemar]

I came across this scholarly article via PubMed while researching something, and was pleased to see it. There are many studies and articles on this topic, but often conventional research & medicine see it more as a "fringe" idea, and also often overlook the volume of anecdotal evidence there is now so freely available that supports this premise.

My own family is a proof positive "anecdotal" story of the vital role of correct dietary nutrition (with nutritional supplementation where needed) in helping to treat neurology without, or with less, pharma drugs and their potential negative side effects.

Because there is Crohn's Disease as well as TS spectrum for my son, we are also able to see that Brain-Gut connection so clearly too. I continue to be amazed at how simple changes in diet and supplements can often have such profound impact on all those disorders, and how connected they are.

My advice from our experience has always been - Do your own research and keep that journal on what aids waning,  or triggers waxing of tics, or other symptoms.

You will be amazed at how what goes into our mouths can either really benefit, or really mess with our Neurology, as well as our GIT. And for those already dealing with a neurological issue - the impact seems magnified.

Here is the 2021 article I read today that gives a summary & some references.

I totally agree.  It takes a lot of work and certain products may cost more but we have found it's worth it.  One big hurdle is understanding exactly what you're eating.  For example, MSG is hidden by giving it so many different names.
