Tourette's Syndrome

What Holistic or Natural Approach I would Take if I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome

by Thomas Martin

Here is what I would do if I was diagnosed with Tourette's Syndrome.   This definitely is not as easy as taking a pill, but the results are worth it.  First of all, I will not take any vaccines.  The levels of mercury and aluminum in all vaccines are so high (for example, 200 parts per billion of mercury is considered hazardous waste.  Vaccines, including the flu shot, often contain levels of 50,000 parts per billion.  The levels of aluminum are also dangerous).  Both are known neuro-toxins.  Regardless of how you feel about vaccines, the level of toxic metals in vaccines cannot be denied. 

 

I will begin by taking:

• CoQ10 (ubiquinol form) - 600 mgs daily
• Magnesium Chloride (spritz about 15 shots on skin and rub in with your inner forearm just before bed)
• Lugol’s solution Iodine (a blend of iodine and potassium iodide), about 10 to 15 drops on my skin, rubbing it in with my forearm, daily. 
• Coconut Oil  - 5 tablespoons daily (work slowly up to this level as coconut oil also acts as a laxative)
• I will make fermented vegetables and eat about 1/2 cup daily.  My gut flora is likely out of balance. 
• Vitamin D3 - 10,000 iu daily
• Carnosine - 1,500 mgs daily
• PQQ (Pyrroloquinoline) - 60 mgs daily
• I will begin a juicing program, starting with one large glass of juice each day and increasing to two as my body detoxifies.  I will make my juice especially rich in green leafy vegetables such as kale and spinach.   I will follow the guidelines laid out in my book Just Do This One Thing: A Guide to  Chronic Good Health
• Vitamin C - 5 grams daily
• Vitamin B Complex - high potency with folic acid
• I will eliminate all Wheat, Corn and Soy from my diet and eat no gluten.
• I will take Cod Liver Oil daily,
• I will take Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12)   - 1 mg (1,000 mcgs)  also daily
• I will take Creatine powder, 1/4 teas twice daily
• I will eliminate any food marked "diet" or "lite."  Ensuring I get NO artificial sweeteners in my diet
• I will eliminate MSG in my diet, checking food labels and asking restaurants in which I dine if they add this poison to their foods.

I will also eliminate the following toxins from my life:

Fluoride – buy and use a non-fluoridated toothpaste.  Tom’s of Maine makes several as does Desert Essence.  Fluoride is an industrial waste poison which has never been shown to reduce or prevent tooth decay.

Mercury – have all mercury amalgam fillings removed from your mouth by a dentist especially trained in this.   The amalgam bleed mercury into you system for decades following the implant.  Also avoid all vaccines (including flu shots) for they also contain mercury which is used as a preservative. 

Lead - check for lead warnings on bottles of balsamic vinegar.

Aluminum – Aluminum is most frequently found in antiperspirants.  Begin using a deodorant which does not contain aluminum.  I will consider products from Primal Pit Paste.    Also get rid of all aluminum cooking pans as the aluminum leeches into the food as it cooks.

 

DISCLAIMER:  I am in no way recommending treatments or cures on this blog.  This blog is merely a compilation of what I have learned about a diet based, natural approach to health. I follow the steps I outline in my book Just Do This One Thing: A Guide To Chronic Good Health and know I will avoid almost every disease listed in this blog.  On the other hand, I needed a place to write steps for specific ailments as I came across them.  If you are looking for alternative therapies, I hope you can benefit from my research, especially if your doctor has told you "nothing more can be done for you."
