Foods for Monocyte Health BY SHARON PERKINS AUG. 14, 2017 Monocytes, large white blood cells that turn into macrophages in tissue, help control infection by gobbling up bacteria, but have a less beneficial side. Monocytes can cause inflammation that damage tissue. In blood vessels, inflammation can damage the vessels and increase atherosclerosis, a build-up of debris insideContinue reading “Foods for Monocyte Health – prevent ALS progression – Omega 3”

How we help slow down aging with seniors with ALS, Parkinson and AD
CNS atrophy leads to muscle atrophy and lack of exercise can facilitate virus and inflammation attacks. With exercise, simple range of motion that seniors can carry will help slow down ALS, Parkinson and Azheimers disease. We start with whole foods rich in Vitamin C and zinc to fight the virus and inflammation. We do simpleContinue reading “How we help slow down aging with seniors with ALS, Parkinson and AD”
