Each time the person comes in contact with the allergen; his or her immune system launches an attack by releasing histamine and other powerful chemicals. The reaction can escalate into a severe, potentially life-threatening allergic reaction called anaphylaxis. david.done.david@gmail.com (David Done) Mon, 04 Aug 2008 23:00:00 -0600 http://www.articleorange.com/articles/2446/1/New-Parkinsons-Treatment---Scientific-Breakthrough-Discovers-Root-Cause/Page1.html Parkinson’s disease was first described in the early 1800s when Dr James Parkinson wrote a paper on what he called ‘the Shaking Palsy’. Surprisingly Dr Parkinson managed to relate the symptoms to a fault in the brain however at the time he knew nothing of the true cause. Thankfully much has been learnt about the disease since then and there are now a number of effective treatments to slow down its progress. Parkinson's Disease is a slowly progressive disorder of the central nervous system that affects movement, muscle control and balance. Symptoms include tremors, slowed movement and postural instability. Other features include rigidity, flexed posture, freezing phenomenon and loss of postural reflexes. Patients can experience depression, sleep disturbances, dizziness and problems with speech, swallowing and sexual functioning. Traditional research has concentrated on viral infection, genetics, environmental toxins, and endogenous toxins. Now there’s a new scientific breakthrough that looks promising for preventing and even reversing Parkinson's disease. Your own Doctor would probably not have heard about it yet, and the Drug companies will scowl knowing that their pockets will be lighter by several millions. So what is the cure I hear you ask, and why have I not heard of it before? To answer that let me explain what I’m talking about. Firstly a group of scientists began to look for the root cause that starts everything off. Their findings have led to tests, which proved remarkable if not, miraculous. These tests were just limited to Parkinson’s, as there are many other modern diseases similar like Alzheimer’s. This reversal process is still relatively new, although already it has helped thousands of people get back to some form of normality. Whether it will cure 100% is not sure, but it will make a great difference to any sufferers. Conclusion Overcoming Parkinson’s is no easy matter. However, there are Parkinson’s treatments which you can try. This new approach is based on the latest scientific breakthroughs. frankadams08@gmail.com (frank C.

Fibromyalgia mainly affects muscles and their attachment to bones. Although it may feel like an arthritic joint disease, fibromyalgia is not a true form of arthritis and does not cause deformities of the joints. Instead, fibromyalgia is a form of muscular rheumatism causing muscle pain. There is no swelling involved and the joints are not often affected. But pain is felt in the muscles, ligaments or tendons. By the way, Fibromyalgia literally means: pain in the muscles and soft tissues. The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) guidelines direct doctors making a fibromyalgia diagnosis to test 18 points on your body for tenderness. Your doctor puts light pressure with his or her fingers on each point to see whether you feel pain. ACR criteria state that pain at 11 of the points may indicate fibromyalgia. More women than men are afflicted with fibromyalgia, and it shows up in people of all ages. Although a higher percentage of women of all ages and races are affected, it does strike men and children. Because of its debilitating nature, fibromyalgia has a serious impact on patients' families, friends and employers, as well as society at large. The conventional medical approach is limited to pain relief and controlling some of the related symptoms by using expensive prescription drugs riddled with side effects. But in reality, extensive research reveals that proliferation of Fibromyalgia disease in society is a direct manifestation of our changed lifestyles. When people around the world experience similar problems, it's not a random incident but a methodical process spreading across cultures and borders. The fact is the exponential increase in fibromyalgia is really the result of the way our lives have changed. The bad news is we are used to living a certain way now and it isn’t easy to change. The good news is that change is in our power and with it better health. Conclusion Overcoming fibromyalgia is no easy matter. However, there are fibromyalgia natural cures which you can try. This natural approach is based on the latest scientific breakthroughs. frankadams08@gmail.com (frank C.

MS is an inflammatory demyelinating condition. Myelin is a fatty material that insulates nerves, acting much like the covering of an electric wire and allowing the nerve to transmit its impulses rapidly. It is the speed and efficiency with which these impulses are conducted that permits smooth, rapid and co-ordinated movements to be performed with little conscious effort. frankadams08@gmail.com (frank C.
