Natural treatment options for Bell's palsy

Q From M.A., Burnsville, Minn.: Is there anything natural that helps

Bell's palsy? I was recently diagnosed with it and, apparently, there

isn't very much my doctor has to offer.

A Bell's palsy is a facial paralysis that occurs in people 30 to 50

years of age. The cause of this disorder is unknown. Many patients

report that the paralysis was preceded by a draft or an upper

respiratory infection. Seventy-five percent of patients recover

within a few months. Although I have not seen any specific

nutritional research for this condition in the scientific literature,

I can share some clinical experience. I have used the same dietary

supplements that I would recommend for shingles -- fish oil

(EPA/DHA), phosphatidylcholine (or lecithin), and L-lysine. I have

recently added phosphatidylserine to this regimen, as well as natural

antivirals, such as echinacea and glycyrrhizin (from licorice root).

With this regimen, I have seen Bell's palsy clear in a matter of two

weeks, rather than several months.

Thanks

I would doubt he`s been exposed to Lyme since we live in San Fran but

you never know - I think he`s from the mid west originally.

I`ll tell him to check it out.

Doesn't matter where one lives in the USA. Have seen whole families

with lyme, Just my opinion but, I believe lyme is contagious in

certain ways, I believe we can get it via bug bites and vaccinations

also. Many animal organs are used as ingredients in vaccinations and

there are even human ingredients used in vaccinations, are these

animals or human ingredients tested for lyme, I doubt it. I believe a

mother with lyme can pass it on to her offspring. Take a look at the

ingredients of the flu shot, you'll never want a flu shot after

reading what's in it.

Lyme is more prevalent than we think.
