The supplements I found are all recommended on MS Hope which is the diet I follow mshope.com/.
All supplements are backed up with evidence to help reduce the symptoms of MS like Brain Fog, MS Fatigue, Nerve Pain, Weakness - and also put your body in an optimum state for recovery and therefore the ability to rebuild myelin.
Here are some future potential video suggestions:
- What is MS?
- Overcoming MS through diet and wellbeing
- Multiple Sclerosis Best Bet Diet
- Saturated Fat and MS
- Wahl's Protocol for MS

My neurologists recommended i take moringa capsules because he said it inhibits chronic inflammation. I was surprised medical doctors never recommend natural supplements
Yes unfortunately medical professionals are quite literally trained just to designate the right pharmaceutical for whatever disease or problem you have... They know little to nothing about natural remedies. That's why I listen to a lot of Holistic doctors online as I find their approach much more valuable!
@@tomgarbett77 you are right maybe because he studied in cuba
I took quercetin and bromelane for my asthma, it helps! Asthma is also a type of autoimmune disease.
I take every single vitamin that you take. I take magnesium before bed. And weight training is a life saver.
Ah brilliant! And yes couldn’t agree more, weight training is definitely a massive factor for me, I will certainly be doing a video on that in the future.
@@tomgarbett77what is weight training?
Great video. Thanks.
No problem! Glad you found it valuable!
Hi.nice to see again and know you are well. I take omega and in south africa we have alot of sun so even with MS my vit D levels were never low👌
Hey nice to hear from you! That's great you are lucky that you get lots of sunlight! Also a very good idea that you are taking Omega 3's 😄
Cod liver oil is Best for MS!
Ashwaganda as well 1!
Yes I take Cod Liver Oil religiously! Haven't tried Ashwaganda yet but willing to give it a go!
Vitamin C :3
You must boost glutathione and support your mitochondria.
Best supplements: Acetyl l-Carnitine, NAC(n-acetyl cysteine), CoQ10(Ubiquinol), Inositol(Myo), 10000d3k2-mk7 and at least 3grams omega3(high DHA).
Thanks for this! That's really useful because I know the importance of looking after your Mitochondria. I will definitely look into those supplements!
You look completely healthy god bless you I hope I can experience the same😢
Also started allithiamine calcium aep and pqq
Thanks for your reminder about DHA & EPA for myelin sheath. Much appreciated. I'd been taking 1k mg of each before starting high dose thiamine. If the thiamine continues to show good gains, I'll stack with fish oil to see if any notable advantage ... Maybe a 3-6 mth trial?. Please keep up the videos if you can, they're really helpful. All the best.
Hey Jenny, no worries but yes definitely worth looking out for the DHA & EPA levels cause they can be deceptively low in some. But thanks I have been looking into thiamine thanks to your suggestion and think I will try some soon. Thanks for the kind words I will keep them coming!
Mitochondrial support+ micro nutrients Turmeric or Curcumin is a great Supplement! I think broccoli onions and Garlic would be of great help that have sulphur and I think help your mitochondria
Hi Tom very interesting I take a lot vitamins they help I moved closer to equator in Florida that help to Magnesium I heard is excellent But b12 is best for me I had internet connection problems buy I'm back This video was great thanks Happy Holidays Tom🌲
Hi Juliette, thanks for sharing! But yes I agree magnesium and B 12 are both very important I feel! Glad your internet is sorted now and Happy Holidays to you too!
@@tomgarbett77 Thanks Tom enjoy the holidays 🌲🎀🎁
@@juliette1884 thanks you too!
@@tomgarbett77 HI Tom weather has changed here South Florida' Its cooler and sometimes warm and days are shorter I feel diference right away Weather has lot to do with this to I started taking airborne its Vitaim C drink boots up immunity good when weather changes January tough month for us Tom I think so
Hi Tom, I'm in Liverpool so only down the road from you! I'm taking everything you said apart from probiotics; I will look into that one. I'm also taking a supplement called Lion's Mane. Have you done any research on it?
Ah nice! Yeah I've heard a lot of good things about Lion's Mane. Do you think it has benefitted you?
Not sure if I made this suggestion on one of your other vids but alpha lipoic acid is also a good one :) ( paper from 2017 called "Lipoic acid in secondary progressive MS" showed a 70% reduction in brain atrophy)
Ah that's a great idea! I was taking that for a while, but stopped so I think I will start again! For reference though I try to eat a lot of flaxseed which contains alpha Lipoic acid
@@tomgarbett77 ahh good stuff - probably taking it in natural form would be just as good :) I also don't take the full 1200 mg they used in the study but only take 600 mg or so a day to supplement and make sure it is sustainable long term!
@@tomgarbett77 look at the forms of R -Ala the research that I was reading said that was the kind that we should be looking at. Might wanna check it out
@@tomgarbett77 flaxseed has alpha-linolenic acid, it's not the same
Look into paradox theory. Involves the liver and bile.
Hello Tom - Can you please go over if ocrevus is covered by provincial health plans and if not how did you Get around it?
Hi Lilly, hear in the UK I am fortunate that it was all on the NHS and so I have no experience in health plans! Sorry that I couldn't help!
I have Medicare, because I’m on SSDI for my MS. It covers 80%, but the pharmaceutical company that makes Ocrevus covers the rest through their patient assistant program.
Hay Tom, just bumped into your channel. Congrats for the content.
I take almost everything you do. There is a treatment that prescribe all of them, but different quantities (higher amounts of vit D). It’s called Coimbra Protocol. It was my option to take it instead of DMT. That was almost 3 years ago and zero flares since then. You might find something interesting there.
Hi Allan, really glad you have enjoyed the content! Yes I have heard of that, but I will certainly look into it more now that you have shared your positive experience! Isn't super high doses of Vitamin D part of it if I remember rightly?
@@tomgarbett77 Yes, those are high doses, but there is much more to it. Vitamins, diet and lifestyle change are also part of the “protocol”. You are already far ahead with what you described here. As I said, I’m DMT free for all this time with no relapses or flairs.
@@allanf_ Good to hear Allan, sounds very similar to what I am doing but with a few tweaks, so it is great to hear that it has really worked for you!
May I ask do you take your vitamins in addition to doctor prescribed meds?
I'm currently not yet on any meds from doctors because I am still waiting on appointments etc to confirm what treatment I will go on! So I am currently just taking the vitamins on their own, but in the future I definitely will be taking them along with the prescribed meds :)
Flush niacin re 2020 paper
Have you heard of Terry Wahls?
Hi Georgi, yes I have - I researched her a lot when I was first diagnosed. Her diet is essentially the same as mine (Best Bet Diet) but with some further modifications to get even more nutrients in from diet. Have you looked into her diet?
Please share some excersices
beneficial for MS.
Thanks for the comment! Great suggestion I will have a think about that. I am conscious that there are people with MS with such varying levels of disability that I wouldn't want to exclude anyone so I will have a think about how I can do that!
@@tomgarbett77 i used to play football alot in my 20's for hours i had lot of stamina then suddenly in 2017 i felt something is not right with my body so i reduced time twice or thrice in week and in 2019 i got miniscus tear in my left knee so i had to leave football then things start changing in early 2020 i felt pain all over my joints and body. But i thought its because of low vitamin D i started taking vitamin d and b12 . I got some relief then optic neurtis effected by left eye in december 2021. Doctor adviced MRI and in MRI there were some old lesions and also new lesion. They have performed some tests like SPINAL tap and EVOKED VISION . Also suggested me new MRi with contrast
Which is scheduled this sunday also spinal tap result will come on 17 January. I am very depressed these days.
@@capturingserenity I'm sorry to hear that you are depressed, but you need to know that it won't always be like this and it will sink in and there are things you can do to control the disease, like diet and lifestyle changes and of course the DMT's that are available nowadays. You've just got to stay strong and keep a positive mindset and I'm sure you will keep it at bay which is what I am doing and what I want to show is possible in these videos!
@@tomgarbett77 i am trying my best to keep it in one side but body aches do not let me do that . About my diet i am always a diet conscious person i am more of a vegetarian. But now its not helping me my body is getting weak 😩. I am unable to go to job because of weakness. May be depression is playing a part in this situation.
@@capturingserenity Yes it does sound to me like you the depression is really bringing you down and affecting you all round. I would definitely suggest looking into the Best Bet Diet which is what I am doing though, because I really feel that could help you - and it certainly helped me mentally because I felt much more in control from then on! Gluten and Dairy are main factors that you need to cut out straight away with the best bet diet. I think also think you should look into mindfulness and meditation because that can really help with anxiety and depression too. I hope my suggestions are helping! Let me know if you need any more suggestions from what I do.
Have you heard abot ZMA (zinc magnessium b6) high dose?
Magnesium for stiffiness definetelly good and b6 boosts energy levels.
Anyone taking it with weights lifting as well ?
cbd, thc, nr, pomegranate fibre(urolithin a), apigenin, sirt6 activator, nag, methyl--b6,b9,b12.
Wow I've not heard of most of them, so I will have to research! Have they really helped you?
@@tomgarbett77 not sure how much they are helping but I'm hoping they are... i've been following the advances in science around healthy aging and trying to feed it back into my lifestyle to help with recovery. I take the standard stuff too like 10k IU of vitamin d3 and omega 3.
@@pelletey ah sounds great! Have you looked into fasting and the powerful effects it can have on slowing down ageing? That’s something that I believe to be very beneficial! But yes high strength vitamin D and omega 3’s is definitely a must!
@@tomgarbett77 yes ive done a lot of fasting myself but trying to put muscle on atm. I can recommend Valter Longo for fasting, he has done clinical trials with pwMS with good results.
@@pelletey Yes Valter Longo is where I have got all my fasting info from as I have done the fasting mimicking diet a few times now! It is tough mentally to do it for 5 days but to me is worth it from the results he has shown in his studies. I am also trying to build muscle so I have found doing the occasional 36 hour water fast works for me as it means there is only one day where I am calorie depleted and I can go to the gym on the others.
Tom I dare you to stop talking about your ms journey. No way? Do you know why?
Because you are a miserable old boomer that has to bring people down?
