Thiamine; An Important Vitamin for Multiple Sclerosis

The most popular vitamin treatments when it comes to Multiple Sclerosis are Vitamin D, niacin (Vitamin B3), and Vitamin B12.

However, thiamine should also be considered a “big gun” regarding the treatment of this disease.

The neurological symptoms of thiamine deficiency are suspiciously similar to the neuromuscular disease of Multiple Sclerosis. These symptoms include:

Nerve irritation
Diminished Babinski reflex
Prickly sensations (“pins and needles”)
Numbness
Pain

and the most striking similarity,

The degeneration of the myelin sheaths (the fatty insulation material that surrounds the nerve cell)

Without myelin sheaths, nerve conduction becomes impossible… Left unchecked, it results in paralysis and eventual death.

The similarity between thiamine deficiency and MS caught the attention of Dr. Fred R. Klenner, MD, a pioneer medical doctor, who found that if he gave MS patients 1000 – 2000 mg of thiamine per day, his patients improved.

Sadly, despite the success of his natural treatment protocols, he was naturally (no pun intended) shunned from the medical community.
