Dr. Zamboni’s Liberation Treatment for Multiple Sclerosis


You may notice that Dr. Cartwright’s voice is a bit scratchy and hoarse sounding. He’s been battling a bad bronchitis that got ahold of him a couple weeks ago and it won’t let go.

You can still hear him good there just may be a few short pauses where he mutes and has to cough. =)

Be sure to leave comments below on any and everything on your mind.

Let’s make this the year you get your life back on track!

    Can I have gluten-free oats?
    Are eggs considered to be in the foods with calcium? Are they also, a dairy food?

    Many, many thanks for this information! What a gift for us.

    Are there any possible side effects to the DHEA? I looked on the internet and there were some mentioned.

    Regarding Dr Zamboni’s work is this dietary change equivilent, over time, to his procedure?

    Best Regards

    Can you share the pros and cons of DHEA please? I have read that because this is a hormone, that one has to be very careful and be monitored constantly by a doctor. What are the advantages of using this hormone in the treatment of MS?

    Thanks,
    Grace

    Thanks so, so much for all of this information. I knew that a healthy diet would help me but some of the things I have been eating are only healthy if you do not have MS – like oats and milk! ie. porridge!! Now that I have so much more information I feel more in control and delighted that I can actively do something that I know will help.

    Yours very grateful to all the expert helpers involved,

    Good to hear about your findings. I follow Dr. Roy L Swank MDPhD diet of
    15 gms fat per day, cook with oil, no butter, crisco etc. no red meat etc.
    He is Porfessor Emeritus Oregon Health Sciences Universiy and started research in 1949 Montreal Canada. I can say 50 yrs research as Dr Swank just passed Nov 2008, age 99.
    I am a 56 yr old R.N. (33 yrs) M.S. for 29 yrs. Currently resting due to stress of mom aging and will go to Assisted Living.
    Dr. Swank prooved our plasma was abnormal, we cannot handle fat similar to Dr. Cartwrights findings. I received plasma infusions when working fulltime as an RN for energy help. Thankyou, we are on the same track!
    Teresa
    p.s. Transfer Factor will help immune system. I have not been ill for 7 years. Go to Physicians Desk Reference. It is in ‘Non-perscription area.’
    Dr. Cartwright could use Transfer Factor!!!! No respiratory infections!

    I too would like to know about gluten free oats….. are these ok?

    Also, is Dr. Zamboni’s procedure being done in the US with success?

    Thank you so much for all your information. I am a loyal follower and will continue to do what you suggest!

    am January 25 2010 @ 2:59 pm

    I was wondering why D3, DHEA were not on the supplement list but were in Dr. Cartwright’s chat? Also, I thought I heard another supplement call impriflavin or did I hear riboflavin????
    EXCELLENT information!!!! For being newly diagnosed it’s so nice to get some information which my doctors don’t seem to be willing or able to do.

  11. LaVonne McLaughlin said

    am January 25 2010 @ 3:00 pm

    can u please do a written acct of this so we can get the supplement names and amounts right? Like you have listed previously? so we don’t have to keep re-watching the film to get it?

    Hello,

    Great to hear your talk thank you for all of this information which I knew nothing about until now. I will start taking these supplements
    right away. But I was wondering if I should take them together with the current medication that I am currently on from my doctor.
    I am currently taking 44mg Rebif 3 times a week, on 4 x 25mg amitrityline Tabs at night, 100mg of Zydol 3 times a day when in pain
    Do you think I should keep taking this mediacation? I suffer from bad neck pain both sides – I was told I also had artritus in my neck.
    I have very clicky bones and griding noises from my neck and shoulders.

    I would really appreciate your comments on this if possible.

    Thank you for all the information. I will follow your website from now on. Thanks again,

    Ursula.

    Hi. Once again, thank you for an informative webnar. I was so interested in hearing about the pros & cons to certain foods. I have had MS since about 18 yrs old, diagnosed at 21yrs so, being almost 39yrs old, I’ve been living with MS a while. I would be so grateful if you were able to draw up a diet sheet. What we should be eating and what we should be avoiding. Almost like an idiots guide to a healthy MS diet. If you could also include a note on the recommended supplements Dr C mentioned. A change in diet/detox, seems a little price to pay to get better.
    Thanks again

    am January 25 2010 @ 3:43 pm

    I am on the first 90 days of supplements from the webinar yet one of the supplements you have said we need is catalase. Since it has been unavaiable – how does it effect your program and should I start the program again for a second 90 days? I feel better, getting my balance back, numbness is almost gone and walking is getting stonger – I would like to keep this forward progression going forward – when might the catalase become available?

  15. Christiane said

    am January 25 2010 @ 4:03 pm

    Thank you for all the informations. DHEA is not available in Canada, is there something else I can take for replacement of DHEA.

    Here in Quebec (Canada) the neurologists doesn’t believe in Dr Zamboni research. What can I do to get this surgery ???
    Thank you,

    Thank you for all the information so far. Where do I find Catalace and Ipriflavion. I am taking other supplements and following the diet.

    Thanks , J. Smith

  17. Dr. Rudy Cartwright said

    am January 25 2010 @ 4:11 pm

    Please note: When Chrystiana says “I am on the first 90 days of supplements…” she is referring to a special program designed by Dr. Cartwright. She was a member of the 6-week MS Health Coaching Course.

    We are having the catalase made since so many people are having problems finding it. We should have an update within the next week or so. It can take 6 to 8 weeks to get manufactured and we started the process a few weeks ago. It shouldn’t be too long now.

    There will be no reason for you to start over. The catalase will only help.

    Glad to hear you are doing so well!

    To Your Health.

    am January 25 2010 @ 5:04 pm

    Thank you so much for all this information. By doing the gluten free diet, no red meat, no calcium and taking the suplements, could this help to clear those veins that are blocked because by the time DR Zamboni’s procedure gets approved here in Canada, I don’t know how my MS would be by that time.

    All I can say is there is hope in the future, which we haven’t had in a while!!!!!

    Thank you

    Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have been diagnosed for almost 7 years, but have been ill for over 15. I am 57 years old. I live in Australia and can’t find catalase here…I’ll look for the DHEA…is there anything comparable? I ordered the alpha liporic acid from the States. At least I love broccoli, cabbage, asparagus, apples, pomegranates, and oranges, and we grow a lot of our own. Will have to buy a Pomegranate bush and orange tree! Thank you for this blog, I have felt very alone in this, and now I have a plan and hope….Cheers

    I think it is awesome that you guys are taking the time to give us all this helpful information.Will diet and supplements help with the numbness and tingling over time? Can you give us a step by step program to follow like some others have talked about?I would love to have a plan to refer to and keep me motivated. I appreciate all your time and help Thanks.

    am January 25 2010 @ 6:40 pm

    Thanks for all the information you have provided us.

    Most of it was easy to follow, except for the names of the supplements mentioned as part of Allies section. Magnesium, VitD3, Catalase…what was the other one? Is it IpriFlavone or Riboflavin or something else?
    Also, did not indicate the amounts?

    Is there any recommended place/site where we could get the supplements? Tried CVS/ Walgreens, was not able to find the exact dosage, for eg: has omega3 with 750mg, VitD3 with 1000IU etc.

    Please let us know.

    I truly believe there is hope, thank God, of overcoming this dis-ease. due to financial constraints I am not able to participate in the MS Health Coaching Courses. However, if it is possible to post the diet and the supplements I would be eternally grateful. I was diagnosed with MS in 2005. I discontinued the treatment (Beta Seron) after being unable to walk upright leaving work one evening. I know there is a better way with better statistics. Please help!!!

    Some of these questions I’m sure are common to a number of us when and how will Dr Cartwright answer them.
    I note you mensioned Doc voice problem but I feel the volume is still a little quite as it was through the webinars so if you could crank the volume up it would be good as we can turn it down in necessary at the receiving end if to loud.

    My husband had MS since 1979 or even longer. He had aspiration pnuemonia and

    wound up in the hospital, got a feeding tube in 2006 and had to go to a

    nursing home. He is also catherized. He is getting Fiber Source. Too bad

    we didn’t have information like this earlier.

    I heard about 3 different people talking on here at the same time, and occasionally a very loud crack of sound would cut in, sure didn’t get much out of this. I am scared of DHEA because it joins up with another hormone and accumulates in the scalp and causes hair loss, which I can’t afford any more of.

    Hi Sue Ellen,
    thanks for going thru all the trouble to get me all the information I wanted to know about.It was interesting to read of all the foods one should not eat&eat as a result of Ms.
    My one question releated to all this is where dose the “Mylin” treatment come into all this?; is not after all the the major problem with all us
    “Ms;ers”.

    am January 25 2010 @ 8:27 pm

    Chrystiana was a member of our 6-wk MS Health Coaching Course. It was an extensive program that outlined all things related to MS including the foods to avoid, supplements to take, fruits and vegetables that you MUST get in your diet on a daily/weekly basis, and tons more. We plan on releasing a limited number of the home study version shortly (we recorded all the sessions) since everyone who originally wanted to participate couldn’t.

    I thought the best approach to cure MS, based on Sue Ellen’s book “No more MS” is detox, detox, detox ( liver, colon and blood) and eat nothing processed or fried and no dairy. This approach is very supported also by Sherry Rogers, MD in her book “Detoxify or Die.”

    This sounds like helpful info. Now I need to be disciplined and try this, especially eliminating the dairy and those wheat,ect. products.What were the dosages for magnesium and alphalyporic acid supplements?Also I donot understand how calcuim supplements cause neurodegenerative problems;what is the science behind that?Is there somewhere that explains it?
    After being in remmision for 8 yrs. ,now experiencing some relapse issues so this info is timely and shall try it.
    Thankyou for sharing and your help.

    Having looked at the MS Society of Great Britain’s Website one of their medical advisers Prof.A.Compston Dept. of Clinical Neurosciences at Cambridge University has stated that there is no convincing evidence to suggest that it is safe or beneficial to people with MS. “People with MS are unlikely to benifit from treatments that dilate blood vessels.”

    See http://www.mssociety.org.uk/news_events/news/press_releases/ccsvi_med_advice.html

    Maybe the jury is still out on this issue…

Is there a complete transcript somewhere that I can read to make sure I get it all straight in my head, recommended daily amounts etc. Also, would it help to detox before starting? Any tips on drinking nine glasses of water when you have bladder probs an d have to use caths. would be appreciated. Thank you again, Barbara.

    To Sherlock:
    My boyfriend is also in pretty bad shape and he was only dx in 2007. He is currently in a nursing home as well, he just turned 41 in Nov. Kevin also has a trach and a stage 4 bedsore to top it all off. Most of his medical has been provided thru the VA and they placed him in skilled nursing 40 minutes away from me. I fully understand what you are going thru. I have went thru the channels to try to get him started on these supplements and have pretty much been ignored. Today when I visit I am starting him on these supplements and they can do to me as they wish. As Sue Ellen will probably tell you, it is never too late. You can hear her full story at nomorems.com. Besure to click on the video clips. Dr. Rudy has laid it all out with they whys and where fors. Thank God for him and people like him. He has done a huge amount of research and continues to do so. Listen to him and do your best to follow his advice. Together maybe we can bring your husband and Kevin back to a more enjoyable life.

    Everyone has thier own uniquic system. That’s why one thing dosn’t work
    for everyone. Don’t beat yourself up. Do a food allergy test through a good lab & rule out Lyme disease through a gold standard lab like Igenix.
    After years of asking MD’s to test me I finally got the results of CDC pos Lyme. Watch http://www.underourskin.com for more info.

    Thank you so much for this information. My name is Rolande and I’ve been diagnosed with MS in 1996. I had a couple of relapse and was put on the medication Betaseron by injections every second day. After one year I had to stop that medication because of bad side effects, I was worse with the medication. It would be nice to have a list of those products written down and also the list of food to eat and to avoid. I was not able to get all the proper information on the webinar as it was hard to understand at some point. Keep up the good work, it’s nice to know that there are people like you.

    All this info is great and I follow it but still have altered sensation in my feet and hands. Does that mean I just need more time to heal or am I still experiencing symptoms on a daily basis. When I first was diagnosed with MS 10 years ago I was a wreck with several problems. I’m much better and refuse to believe that I won’t have normal sensation back 1 day. I have a sense of gratitude for where I am today but know having neuropathy is not normal since I am only 35 and otherwise healthy.

  57. Dr Janet K Cooley said

    am January 26 2010 @ 1:50 pm

    Like Barbara Hamilton, I have been totally unable to understand most of the broadcast. However I would like to make two comments.
    1. As a scientist I believe it to be fundamentally important to develop a sound way to diagnose MS. I have had MS for 55 years and have lots of trouble with diagnosis. My first two countries were England ( London) and Wales (Bangor) where I had lots of time in hospitals. I then moved to Canada where I read a lot about medical problems I might have; decided it could be MS and got my GP to send to an MS expert in Halifax, NS. He said I had MS, although he did not test to diagnose my problem. I have always believed this to be inadequate; I’m a Doctor but the old kind ;PhD in Paleolimnology. If we don’t know who has MS how do we know how help people medically. For example I have evidence that strongly suggests I came by this genetically. With this worry I felt all I could do to help my daughter was give her no Milk products of any kind for the first four years. She is 29 and has no problems.
    2. I’am interested in your diet and could not find it on the web. I have eaten no milk products all my life.
    I have eaten no Gluten products for the past 20 years which has been getting easier in Canada. I have always eaten tons of fruit and vegetables—all my favorites. I have eaten a lot of fish as this was always recommended by Scandinavian counties as a positive move against MS.I Eat very little meat as it is not healthy. I have also taken things like vit D etc. And for many years I have been to tanning. This I have read to be good for MS, but not until years after I started.

    What about Ampyra that was just approved by the FDA?
    When it was called Fampridine we got it from a compound pharmacy and my son with MS has been on it for 3 months. The first week there was a diffinent improvement in five MS symptoms. Now he has reached a plateau and nothing is happening with the exception that his mind has cleared and he has b ecome more cognitive. Does this medic ine start working again in the future?

    What would help us all if a diet sheet made up for us
    what to eat we know it`s veg and fruit and chicken
    is that it.
    and to know what supplements and were to get them all
    Thanks for helping us.

    I agree with many others that we need transcripts to refer to. Also, why it is easy to say cost shouldn’t matter to be free of MS, realistically for most this couldn’t be further from the truth. Most are on permanent disability, living on fixed incomes, have little to no insurance and have out of control medical bills. After the Webinar somehow I came across a site that listed the MS Health Coach products and they seemed rather costly. I don’t expect anyone to do all this for free but at those fees it appears that it’s not just about wanting to help people. I would be a little more confident to purchase these products if there was a money back guarantee.

    I have RRMS and was just diagnosed last March via MRI & spinal tap. I weigh 320 lbs. and my neurologist at the Melon Cntr. @ Cleveland Clinic recommends bariatric surgery to get the weight off as it is more of a problem than the MS itself, at this point.
    Would this diet and the supplements be beneficial for my situation more than the surgery? I’ve already gone through the preliminary bariatric program for 6 months and am cleared for surgery. Just awaiting approval from insurance. As I understand it, the weight prohibits the efficacy of the copaxone.
    Was on Rebif for 3 months. Far too many side effects. Have been on Copaxone for 4 months. Am also on Lyrica 75mg/for daytime; Lyrica 100 mg/for nighttime (crippling leg cramps); Meloxicam 2/day & Tramadol as needed for pain.
    I have also been diagnosed with arthritis in spinal lumbar, hips, knees, ankles…..Seem to be doing well, considering, but experiencing piercing (stabbing) pains occassionally in head (eyes & side of head) and rt. lower leg (shin). Like a stabbing, weakening pain. All these pains noticeable since initial episode of gradually losing total feeling in left side of face and losing balance, resulting in ‘listing’ to the left.
    Anyone have any similarities? Very fatigued most of the time, also. I work all day (retail manager) and just fall into a heap in my chair when I get home. I really feel pretty much alone in this.

    Is really helpful hearing about things that can help and things that can hinder. I was diagnosed in 2007 I am 49 y.o. and unsure of the future. Have even been looking into stem cell treatment in China. No help in Australia.

    Dear Dr. Cartwright,
    Thank you for your time and effort in helping solve the many issues that revolve around MS. My question/comment is firstly, I had been placed on two of the Beta-interferons which made be sicker than the disease and decided after two years of it that it wasn’t for me. SecondIy, I decided to “copy” a treatment that is being studied out in CA using the hormone estriole. I take 8mg orally once a day, my concern is that one of the supplements we are to use is DHEA, would I not be “overdosing” on it if I were to take your recommended amount?
    Also. some of the supplement’s dosage is not available at the levels you prescribe, is it possible to “get as close” to the recommended amount or does one have to be exact?
    I anxiously await your comment as I begin your regimen tomorrow.
    Thank you.

    This is great information! I have never been one to jump to prescription drugs first.
    Sp,even if one includes all the proper fruits and veggies, they still need/should take ALL the supplements mentioned? What about rice; is that safe?

    We just want to clear up a little mis-information. We are not sure what products you are talking about but there are no MS Health Coach products. The only thing we have previously done is the 6-week MS Health Coaching webinar series. There are no products other than this one. We are planning on releasing the home study version and the details for that will be coming shortly.

    We susupect you were looking at someone else’s website.

    To Your Health.

    The webinar with Dr. Cartwright, Sue Ellen and Scott ? was very informative. Thank you for the presentation!

    I have battled the symptoms of relapsing-remitting MS since my diagnosis in 1958. After about ten years of numbness, paralysis, optic neuritis and others, I was relatively symptom free until 2000. Then my balance became very unsteady and cane, scooter and other walking aids became necessary. Fatigue is my major battle.

    I LOVE broccoli and maintain a healthy diet. I give God all the glory for my “50 Wonderful MS Years”.

    My story is available on my website: http://www.3mmanuel7.com

    This is all fine and good….but there is something everyone should know….God heals!!Yes, if you give your life to him and are truly sincere when you do this, he will give you a second chance…he did for me. I suffered with MS since 1987. Today I am symptom free because I have PEACE with the creator and I let him run my life now instead of running it myself. I used to be so stressful, angry, upset about everything which I’m sure was very bad for my symptoms. When I gave control over to him, I let go of all that and just began to realize that God was in control of my body, not me. What he allowed, he could take away after all…he created us! I now love people and try to live a life of peace and helping others….it has changed my life. I am totally healed now. Praise be to God…..try it you have nothing to lose.

    Firstly, a big thankyou to you Sue Ellen and Dr. Cartwright for doing so much to try and help us all. It is much appreciated. I live in the UK and was diagnosed with PPMS in 2005 although I had been suffering from strange symptons probably a good 10 years before that. I was not offered any medication and was basically told to go away and get on with it. Since then, I’ve tried to follow the diet i.e. no red meat or dairy and make sure I have the right fruit and veg every day.

    I just wanted to ask if soya based products like milk and yoghurt are o.k.? I take a lot of supplements and have also been taking LDN or Low Dose Naltrexone for the last few years which I believe has really played a part in stabilising my MS. I have found it particularly beneficial for bladder control and excellent for fatigue as I rarely suffer from this.

    Dr. Zamboni’s research is very interesting and may open new pathways into how this illness is treated in the future. Recently, there was a story in the UK tabloids about an english lady who travelled to California last June to have this liberation procedure undertaken. Apparently, it really helped her and she now feels so well she is expecting her first child.

    All this is great news but I also agree with Lainey – faith and belief in God and in youraelf are pivitol to any possible recovery.

    Thank you for the informative webinar, I’m busy detoxing and have got Sue Ellens complete NO MORE MS program and her diet book with complete menu’s, that are both very helpful indeed. I feel a bit more emphasis should be placed on the excercise front. Also, I have been on LDN 4MG Low Dose Naltrexone for 12 of my 23 MS years and don’t feel I’m ready to give that up yet, can this affect my progress adversely, any advice on the meds? keep up the unselfish work, BRAVO.

    I am 55 yr old, dx with secondary ms only in 2009. I do not qualify for any drug treatment so will be looking closely at the whole diet thing.

    I did listen to the webinar last week, and it has been very good to read everyone’s comments.

    thanks

    I would like to hear from someone who did your 6 week home course. Did they notice any improvement during the program. I think a lot of us are anxiously looking to purchase the supplements (including myself) but I have not heard any accounts from someone who has benefited from this program. Has diet alone shown to be beneficial

    I agree with Lainey, GOD does heal! But a good diet doesn’t hurt either; after all, God gave us brains to use, but we need to trust HIM no matter what, and pray about our decisions!
    Thanks for your comments Lainey!

    I would like to know about vinegar. I eat alot of salads with Italian dressing. I read somewear that MSers should stay away from vinegar because of it being acidic. I also would like to know if you heard of a natural product called Kalawalla that I take for my MS.I don’t take any of the MS drugs anymore because they don’t work for me and I’m trying to go natural and please can you recomend a good healthy snack.

    This the first time I watched and heard the MS Health Coach Video Blog. THIS IS WONDERFUL. I was one of the participants in Dr. Cartwright’s 6 week webinars and I was really enlightened. I have incorporated most of the foods and all of the supplements into my daily routine. It is really hard to find anything to eat for breakfast since we are to eliminate all foods with wheat, barley, rye and oats. Any suggestions on breakfast foods? Also, any suggestions on weight gaining? I have lost over 20 poinds since my one and only set back in October 2008 (diagnosed in 1998), At this point, I am TOO SKINNY. HELP!

    I understand Dr. Zamboni’s procedure is being given at U of Buffalo in New York as well as California..(UCLA? STAMFORD?). I have just me, I don’t feel strong enough to stand for my choices. I am alone, and feel alone.
    Is anyone in the same boat? I want to believe in myself, like myself, go forward with my life what ever that may be. Perhaps I’ll email Dr. Zamboni.
    Kind of mixed up right now. sorry. And I too, read a note from the woman who got the procedure (“Patients Like Me website). It certainly helped her with facial pain, and other things.

    Hi,Can somebody help. I have listened to the liberation part of video so many times and still can’t tel alll that is being said and don’t get time to write down names of supplements. I have got most of the supplements but can’t catch the bit about osteophorosis/eliminating calcuim. I’m so frustrated, I could cry. It seems that a hugh carrott has been dangled in front of us but we all have so many questions and there is nobody giving us any answers. Why can’ all the video be printed so it can be read and studied several times to make sure we’ve got all the information.
    Also, I can’t get any further than the video, who can we ask to answer all the questions that this has thrown up.
    Please email if anyone can supply missing bits.
    Thanks Barbara UK

    So far I have been dealing with DR. Cartwright and he has been wonderfyk abd really interesting. I have just gotten and looked to sign up, but it wouldent let me. That is probably get upset at the cost at first, but he dioes settle. I am sorry I am not going to be able to do this unless you are going to have another lagdf. I wont be able to do anything tomorrow as I have an appointment. The treated my mother for something and I met them once. I don’t know why I chose the one I did, but he is not at all helpful and will not return phone call. That will change tomorrow.

    Thank you for the help you have given me so far and I am going to talk to my new doctor and see what he says.
