Hi All,
I would like to know if there are any dietary/vitamin supplements and/or dietary dos and don'ts ragarding spinal nerve regeneration. Any advice would be welcome no matter how "out there" or "off the wall" it is. I am a firm advocate of the Outside-the box school of thought.

I can't recall anything in particular but I know it's been discussed before. Take a look at some of these posts - Nerve Regeneration Search

You should increase the intake of beans cereals, fruits and vegetables.

Oh trust me I've had the whole hospital/rehab food experience for 6 months after my injury. I too lost weight but I've gained it all back being home and eating the great home cooked food

WOW thank you cherjb, this article is very informative and reinforces my stance against "Big Pharma".

Here's an article I came across this morning while facebonking:

My wife has been a big fan of essential oils and has been using them for about ten years, she loves them. She also puts them in our diffuser so our house smells of them.

Great find cherjb, thanks for sharing!

I agree hmalbet, I'm completely against big pharma. Pfizer is one of the biggest companies out there and they're no better than the corner street meth dealer. Only difference is that their drugs are legal even though a lot of them are bad for us but the government doesn't care because it makes them their money. There's plenty of natural ways to treat certain conditions but prescription medication is what everyone goes to unfortunately.

cbdives, how did you get paralyzed again?

I know I have posted about this but I can't find it so I am talking about Turmeric again. I cant praise this herb enough, especially for its usefulness as an anti inflammatory and anti spasmodic.

In my opinion, for what its worth, anything that helps reduce inflammation ( new injuries in particular) and calms the nerves can only have a positive effect on the nervous system.

Turmeric is known to control the air element in our body. According to Ayurveda, air is force allowing blood to circulate, nerves to send impulses, thoughts to flow. One key thing here is what happens when air element is in excess. Excess air element causes nervous system to become hyper active. Turmeric’s nature is basically warm and thus helps in controlling hyper nerves and soothes them down. It is also now proved that turmeric is a good antispasmodic.

Nerve regeneration is a process and one that takes time and then so many factors come into the progress of this but why not give a bit of help where we can.Turmeric and Nerve Health
