    Nutrition and Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Part 3/5

    Thursday, August 12th, 2010

    There have been theories that diet and nutrition could play a part in helping MS patients.

    DIRECT-MS (www.direct-ms.org ) is a federally registered charity which was founded in early 1998 by families affected by MS. The main goal of the charity is to fund research that directly tests the role of nutritional factors in MS. The charity was established because the research efforts of the large MS charities such as Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada (MSSC) and the National Multiple Sclerosis Society (NMSS) are focused on long term research such as genetics and molecular biology. Such topics are only very indirectly related to MS cause and will not provide persons with MS with a practical therapy for slowing or halting MS progression for decades, if ever. Thus little research is being done which will help persons with MS in the near future (5-10 years) and essentially nothing is being done in terms of nutritional factors and MS. Such a situation is not in the best interests of persons with MS and DIRECT-MS hopes to rectify this very unfortunate and potentially very harmful circumstance. nutritional recommendations summary www.direct-ms.org Other interesting related presentations (high resolution slides)can be found at: www.direct-ms.org And also Dr Cordain’s web site: www.thepaleodiet.com There is also a very interesting interview with Dr Loren Cordain by Robert Crayhon: chetday.com

    Ryan Star – Brand New Day (studio version)

    Sunday, August 8th, 2010

    Lyrics: I’ve stayed in one place for too long Gotta get on the run again I saw the one thing that I want Hell bent, get outta bed I’m throwing rocks at your window You’re tying the bed sheets together They say that we’re dreaming too big I say this town’s too small Dream Send me a sign Turn back the clock Give me some time I need to break out And make a new name Let’s open our eyes To the brand new day It’s a brand new day I’ve taken hits like a brawler But I’m getting back up again And from the moment I saw her I was hell bent with heaven sent I’m throwing rocks at your window We’re leaving this place together They say that we’re flying too high Well get used to looking up Dream Send me a sign Turn back the clock Give me some time I need to break out And make a new name Let’s open our eyes To the brand new day It’s a brand new day It’s a brand new day I know it’s a brand new day Come on to the brand new day I know it’s a brand new day Dream Send me a sign Turn back the clock Give me some time I need to break out And make a new name Let’s open our eyes To the brand new day It’s a brand new day I noticed there wasn’t a studio version available on YouTube so I uploaded mine.
