Here's an article I have about Bells Palsy. Carol ============== The paralysis is caused by an unknown mechanism which affects the nerves of the face. It is thought that a virus or immune system problem results in nerve swelling which produces the paralysis. Other causes of facial nerve paralysis are injury, tumors and ear infections. Leafy green vegetables are rich in the B vitamins, especially vitamin B12 and vitamin B3 (niacin), which are needed for a healthy nervous system. Nutritional yeast, used daily as a bread spread, added to soups and sauces or sprinkled on salads is another good food source of B vitamins. Ensure that the essential fatty acids, required for the proper functioning of the nervous system, are included in your daily diet in the form of unrefined, cold-pressed flax seed oil, walnut oil or pumpkin seed oil. The essential fatty acids contained in these oils are converted in the body to prostaglandins which reduce inflammation. To keep swelling and pain to a minimum, avoid table salt, which causes water retention. Avoid red meats, as these are high in salt and promote inflammation. Most vegetables, especially broccoli, zucchini and carrots, are high in potassium and low in sodium and therefore help the body eliminate excess fluid and reduce swelling. Chili peppers contain an anti-inflammatory substance which reduces the sensitivity of nerve endings to pain. The B vitamins are essential for the nerves and an important supplement in times of physical or emotional stress. Vitamin B1 will provide additional nerve support. B12 is essential. It is involved in many biochemical nerve processes. Supplementation has offered relief within a couple of weeks in many instances and has even spurred recovery in persistent, chronic cases. B 12 injections were the most effective, as they treat the source of the problem specifically. The next best form of B12 is a sublingual tablet, dissolved under the tongue. Vitamin B12 absorbed through the mucous membranes in the mouth directly into the bloodstream. Evening primrose oil is rich in the essential fatty acid gamma-Linolenic acid (GLA), which provides the body with nutrients needed to combat inflammation and to support healthy nerve function. Vitamin C is always helpful against inflammation and should be taken regularly. The minerals magnesium and calcium are also recommended as they are essential for the nerves and to relieve spasms and cramps causing the problem. Aphanizomenon Flos Aquae (http://tinyurl.com/g1iz) is RICH in the necessary B vitamins. Thiamine (vitamin B1) is the nerve and energy B vitamin molecule that is involved in numerous nerve, heart, and muscle tissue reactions. Riboflavin (vitamin B2) - the Enzyme Animator... Pyridoxal (vitamin B6) - Immune System Booster... Niacin (vitamin B3) - Vanquisher of Tension... Pantothenic Acid (vitamin B5) - Fatigue Fighter... Folic Acid - Nutrient for the Intestines... Vitamin B12 - Energy Provider on the Cellular Assembly Line References: *Algae to the Rescue! by Karl J.
