Multiple Sclerosis and Mycotoxins

Interstitial Cystitis
David Holland, MD
Interstitial cystitis (IC), a painful bladder disease, is a condition that falls into the broader realm of "Chronic Pelvic Pain" (CPP). It is more common in women, and affects up to 1 in 6 women between the ages of 20 and 49.1 It is characterized by the need to urinate frequently and urgently, along with pain in the bladder or pelvic area, plus the proven absence of a bacterial infection or other, "definable" pathology.1 . . . keep reading

Polycystic ovarian syndrome, or Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the leading causes of infertility, and is described as the most common endocrine (hormonal) disorder encountered by women of reproductive age.

Mycotoxins in the human food chain (link)
Many health professionals aren't familiar with what mycotoxins are and where they are found. This link to this technical article describes how these fungal contaminants make their way into our food supply, and how they are detected even in human breast milk. The more exposure throughout our life, the greater chances of disease. The opposite also applies: the more we can avoid such exposure and minimize damage of unavoidable exposure (by taking certain supplements), the better chances we have for health. . . . keep reading

Mycotoxins in pet feed (link)
Mycotoxin regulation in feeds (for animals) is less restrictive than that in foods (for humans). The number of domestic animals with chronic diseases--arthritis, diabetes, leukemia--I believe correlates with the level and prevalence of mycotoxins in animal feeds. The ideal feed for a dog or cat is not a feed at all, but grass-fed beef, such as that offered at www.texasgrassfedbeef.com (check out their pet food!), or wild fish. A distant second would be a rice-based meal; but corn should be avoided if good animal health is to be desired, since corn in feeds is nearly universally contaminated with harmful, fungal byproducts. . . . keep reading

Mycotoxins in the Human Food Chain--link to article
Quote from this article: "Mycotoxins are highly undesired substances that should not be present in food and for which a zero tolerance is ideal. However, even the best agricultural, storage and processing practices cannot completely avoid or eliminate these contaminants, and thus it is impossible to achieve a truly mycotoxin-free food chain." . . . keep reading

Cancer, nutrition, and supplements--web links
Many have heard that supplements may interfere with the traditional cancer treatment modalities of radiation and chemotherapy. As it turns out, the evidence supports the opposite. Here are some scientific reports that you may read up on and refer to your physician if you're battling cancer, or are in the midst of having to consider cancer treatment... . . . keep reading
