Some of the more common symptoms of Lupus disease are pain or swelling in joints, muscle pain, fever with no known cause, red rashes (most often on the face), hair loss, pale or purple fingers or toes, sensitivity to the sun, swelling in legs or around eyes, mouth, extreme fatigue. Symptoms of Lupus vary depending on the type of disease.
Lupus is a group of diseases that cause degeneration of parts of the body. The causes are unknown, but believed to be a disorder where the immune system begins to attack parts of the body. The disease is found in women 8-15 times as often in men. While some types of Lupus are relatively mild, the most common type can result in Kidney Disease, crippling arthritis...even death. To help with the fight, here are the latest top-selling books on lupus disease symptoms and treatments.
Currently, there is no cure for Lupus. Once you're diagnosed with Lupus you'll be an important part of a large medical team of specialists, each specializing in a few of your symptoms. You're important, because you will need to learn all you can to stay on top of what the doctors are doing, monitor your symptoms and progress and report often to your doctor. Well intentioned as they are, sometimes too many cooks spoil the soup. The goal is to minimize flare-ups of the disease and to avoid organ damage.
A low calorie, low fat diet that limits beef and dairy products has helped. To strengthen your body, particularly the systems involved in Lupus, you can supplement your diet with natural Multi-Vitamins and Multi-Minerals, along with extra doses of the following:
Antioxidants; including
Beta Carotene,
Flavonoids,
Vitamin A,
Zinc,
Vitamin E,
Vitamin C and
CoQ10.
Lipoic Acid; at least
200 mg divided into 2-3 doses per day.
Organic Germanium; 300-450mg
divided into 3 doses a day.
Omega 3; 3 per day, 1 at
beginning of each meal.
Lecithin; taken with the
Omega 3.
Selenium
Vitamin B Complex
Garlic; 3 cloves
per day.
We both know there are no guaranteed cures, whether in medicine, nutrition, herbs or anything else. Complete healing...including mind, body and spirit...is possible, from God. If you want God's help with your health problem, go to Help From God.
