I’m a little bit hesitant posting about my moms progress using Ayurvedic treatments but I’ll post in hope that someone finds this helpful despite the many herbal snake oil I see been advertise on this group. My mother who had been diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease for 3 years at the age of 82 had all her symptoms reversed with Ayurveda medicine from natural herbs centre after undergoing their ALS/MND Ayurvedic protocol, she’s now able to comprehend what is seen and she no longer needs the feeding tube to feed,. God Bless all ALS disease Caregivers. Stay Strong, take small moments throughout the day to thank yourself, to love your self, and pray to whatever faith, star, spiritual force you believe in and ask for strength, their website is naturalherbscentre. com She’s getting active again since starting this treatment program...

I stopped ALS(Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) medicines prescribed due to severe side effects, and decided to go on natural herbal approach. My neighbour introduced me to Kykuyu Health Clinic and i immediately started on their ALS herbal formula treatment. This herbal treatment has made a tremendous difference for me. My symptoms including muscle weakness, stiff muscles, muscle spasms, difficulty speaking, fatigue, difficulty swallowing, all disappeared after six weeks treatment! visit kykuyuhealthclinic . com
