Neurological diseases

There are many different neurological diseases (diseases of the brain and nervous system), but they all have one thing in common: they are based on neuroinflammation (inflammation of nerve tissue). This is exactly what we want to reduce with the right combination of phytonutrients.

Neurodegenerative diseases, such as dementia, Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease, the post-commotional syndrome, a multitude of sequelae in the physical, mental and emotional area after a brain injury (e.g. after an accident or a cerebral infarction) and other neurological diseases, such as polyneuropathy, epilepsy or migraine, etc. have one thing in common: they strongly change the life of a person and that of those around him/her depending on the impairment. But there is another common feature: the so-called neuroinflammation (inflammation of nerve tissue; in the narrower sense a chronic inflammation of the central nervous system).

The sensitive nerve tissue in the brain needs particularly good protection to keep pathogens away, but also to prevent immune cells and antibodies from penetrating. These would cause more damage to the brain than they help. The so-called blood-brain barrier provides this protection. The brain needs immune cells, but not the same ones that work in the rest of the body. These special brain immune cells are called microglia. The brain can also become inflamed. Inflammation of nerve tissue is called neuroinflammation and is actually a healthy reaction of the immune system that protects the brain from infection. In neuroinflammation, immune cells of the blood can cross the blood-brain barrier, and selected cells of the immune system are allowed to pass. But in certain cases this can become a danger to the brain. Neuroinflammation can then be involved in the development of serious diseases of the central nervous tissue.

This is where amazing things can be achieved with the right combination of phytonutrients. Scientific research in neurology has shown that a number of secondary plant substances play an important role in the regeneration, but also in keeping the brain healthy. Among other things, a high antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect plays an important role. However, the ingredients also have a neuroprotective effect and thus protect against cell death of the neurons. Pain, e.g. muscle spasms, is also a major issue in many neurological diseases, and these can also be tackled with active substances from nature.

Possible phytonutrients that we can use in this area, depending on the disease (list not complete):

• Turmeric

• OPC

• Omega-3 fatty acids

• Astaxanthin

• vitamin B6, vitamin B12, folic acid

• Q10

• Phosphatidylserine

• vitamin D

• bio-identical hormones

• CBD

• Voluntastrole

• Coconut oil

• NADH

• Immune activation

Of course, depending on the clinical picture, other forms of therapy, such as physiotherapy, etc., must also be applied.
