NATURAL CURES FOR ARTERIAL BLOCKAGE
11/29/2011: Anonymous from Anonymous writes: "Respected sir, My mother is 62 yrs old. A month ago she had a severe heart attack, after angiography it was revealed her one artery was 100% blocked, second one was 40 - 60% blocked and third one was 80% blocked. A stent was put in the artery with 100% blockage. for rest she's being prescribed aspirin along with other heart medicines. her cholesterol is normal, her B.P is normal. Pl. advice something to clear her rest blockage. Is apple cider vinegar helpful in her case?"
11/30/2011: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "In case of blocked arteries I presume that her blood may be too viscous. To reduce viscosity, you can take digestive enzymes 6 to 8 times a day on empty stomach. The apple cider vinegar can be done too, that is 2 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda on an empty stomach taken 3 or 4 times a day. The alkalinity of the baking soda will help reduce viscosity due to the soapy properties, baking soda being alkaline. The apple cider vinegar helps dissolve some fats if she has any fats around the area, if she doesn't then just straight baking soda will do, although you may need less of it, such as 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda dissolved in warm cup of water after meals 3 times a day, would be a start. You must take into consideration also that healing can only occur if the blood sugar is near normal, but with a diabetic, healing is hampered, whereby we have to lower the blood sugar with chromium supplement 1000 mcg, and vanadium sulfate, say 10 mg, and perhaps granulated lecithin to unblock the fats and sugar too, perhaps 1/2 teaspoon twice a day. In all heart conditions, if you check if her blood pressure is in normal range or not too high to be hypertensive, then vitamin E, 200 iu. may help the tissues that require oxygen to need less of it with antioxidants. Lysine may also help healing as well as recovery along with glutamine. Both are taken around 1000 mg x 4Ted"
12/01/2011: Anonymous replies: "Thanks Ted, highly grateful for ur valuable reply. my mother is not diabetic neither hypertensive, her cholesterol is also normal, ya she is on blood thinner as i had already mentioned to u and luckily their is no damage to heart. The dosage of acv that u mentioned is for the entire day or it is for the single time in a day, i.e same has to be repeated 3-4 times a day. pl. mention something to open her rest 2 blockage.Deeply thankful to u"
12/1/2011: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "The ACV and baking soda can be done 2 to 4 times a day. Magnesium is often helpful also in case of a heart problem, such as magnesium chloride or magnesium citrates.

COMPLICATIONS AFTER BYPASS SURGERY
11/27/2011: Anonymous from Anonymous writes: "my fiance had bypass surgery back in march of this year and had 4 hernias repaired in june. they removed one of the veins from his right leg and after the surgery the area swelled up and got very tight. they extracted some of the fluid, but has almost all come back. also since the surgery in march his body temp has steadily gone down, sometimes as low as 94.2. recently he has been having pains in left side that seem to start from the abdomen and radiate up to his neck. he has a tight feeling near base of his ribcage on the left. he has had numerous cardiac checks and everything is fine. he has also been trying to treat candida. i was thinking it could be lymphatic related or possibly kidney problems, but not sure.
any help you offer would be greatly appreciated. thanks"
11/30/2011: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "The surgeons actually should not have removed the veins as it leads to complications of lymphadema, because those veins prevent the swelling. If it has nowhere to go without the veins, the blood swells in the legs.The only way to alleviate this the easiest is to thin the blood with common supplements such as potassium citrate, taurine, mannitol, are the common ones I use. Diuretics also help, such as dichlorothiazide. The dose I use even for non-lymphadema is 1/4 teaspoon of taurine, mannitol and potassium citrate, taken such as twice a day. (Mainly to resolved constipation, that can lead to swelling). But these you do not need all of them, but they work the same, potassium by driving excess sodium, mannitol by reducing excess pressure, taurine by correcting and balancing, and reducing the osmotic pressure. And potassium is a diuretic to some extent, because it is citrate, it thins the blood to some extent by alkalization of the citrate too. One thing that you have to be aware of is chlorinated water or even MMS, causes edema in people who are susceptible to it, and to neutralized it before a shower is to take one rice grain of sodium thiosulfate, orally as this will neutralize the chlorine by converting into harmless salts. Other causative agents are cadmium found in chocolates, and shellfish also does that by raising high blood pressure.
Then to reduce it physically to encourage blood flow back, you have to strap cloth around the legs including the toes from bottom to top. There are others that also help but they produce side effects. This includes courmarin, since it is taken in large amounts.
As to low body temperature I have found low dose lithium and Lugols' solution raises body temperature if it is caused by hypothyroidism, lithium is a little known supplement needed by thyroid too, it has the effect of increasing body temperature and has diuretic properties, but lugol's has the effect on some people in raising blood pressure. Low dose lithium is around 1 to 5 mg. a day at early evening. But increasing dosage of Lugol's may also caused edema or lymphadema if taken in large dosage in some people.
Candida is helped by mentioned potassium citrate. As to kidney problems the common remedy is ginger tea, assam tea, and threonine. These really work.

TREATMENT FOR HEART BYPASS RECOVERY, KIDNEYS
09/03/2011: Anonymous from Anonymous writes: "Dear Ted, I am writing to you to request a treatment plan for my father. He had a heart by-pass 20 years ago and has had frequent angioplasties and angiographs after 10 years of having had the bypass.
These treatments have been quite successful in opening up blockages however he still has 2 blockages in his arteries that have not been able to be unblocked due to their location. He developed diabetes and high blood pressure after his bypass and due to the poor level of control he has now been told that he has severe impaired kidney function that may need dialysis in 18 months.
My request to you is for help in devising a treatment plan for him using natural methods for the following ailments.
1: Opening up heart valves and preventing future blockages. (I have read on the earth clinic site and other places about a medicine using one part lemon, one part ginger, one part garlic, one part acv and honey. You have also mentioned Aspirin frequently in your posts to help prevent clots etc.)
2: Lower and maintain diabetes and blood pressure levels (would the above medicine aid in lowering both these conditions as well as unclog arteries? Or do you have any other suggestions. You have also stated that laxatives help). He also has high cholesterol. Would the treatments also help with this?
3: Restore and maintain kidney function to prevent dialysis and further damage. (You have mentioned baking soda frequently and vitamin D4 and B1 therapy)
Please tell me the treatments you feel suited and the dosage. I am sure you will be aware of any that will negate each others effects (e.g acid content in acv being negated by baking soda etc etc).
I have some knowledge of the treatments but I am not certain of the dosages and the timings that they have to be taken. Please also tell me of any special diet for people with the conditions my father has. I have read somewhere about a high-fat low-carb low-protein diet to reverse kidney disease.
I am eagerly awaiting your reply and hope that you can help me."
09/06/2011: Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "First we have to find out possible causes to the condition. You mentioned that he developed diabetes and high blood pressure after the operation. I have seen that also, it seems certain viruses cause pancreatitis and that leads to lower insulin levels and diabetes. When you have diabetes, the solubility of the calcium is increased 20 fold, and with the presence of nanobacteria and combination of calcium, it causes additional arteriosclerosis. The pancreatitis is commonly caused by a virus, and easily eliminated in most cases with an antiviral remedy, primarily lysine, zinc, selenium and threonine.1: Opening up heart valves and preventing future blockages.
I usually employ only tetrasodium EDTA, in opening blockages, but my doses are low, a 30-40% tetra EDTA solution, given 20 drops twice a day, mixed with 1 cup of water will help chelate out the calcium that caused the blockages. There is a possibility of trans fatty acid and vegetable oil (found in high amounts and linked to arteriosclerosis), and the possibility of nanobacteria causing the buildup of it also. There are two ways I can go about killing nanobacteria, the first one is tetracycline HCl taken 500 mg before sleep, that implies no food is taken at least 2 hours during this time taken once before sleep. Another way I do is to prepare a 5% Gallium nitrate, and give them in drops such as 20 drops twice a day. It's a conservative dose. But I would usually do tetracycline HCL and tetrasodium EDTA. CoQ10 ubiquinone or ubiquinol is taken 400 mg a day to help the heart muscles, also I discovered that allopurinol also improves heart functions by protecting the endothelial tissues from damage, which also controls blood pressure over time, but the one reason that allopurinol stands out (and CoQ10) is it allows regular heart beat, in other words normalizes heart function.
2: Lower and maintain diabetes and blood pressure levels (would the above medicine aid in lowering both these conditions as well as unclog arteries?)
Diabetes is best handled with lysine if it is caused by pancreatitis, but the best remedy for diabetes by far would be Alpha lipoic acid 200 mg x 3. This would actually reverse diabetes. The unclogging of arteries is mentioned in 1). As far as blood pressure medicine, well there are no current alternatives to treating them to be low enough to be satisfactory, except the meds in hospital, but alternative medicine has the effect of lowering blood pressure down and keeping it down to a new level. Things that work are potassium citrate, magnesium citrate, CoQ10, quercetin, and possibly baking soda. The apple cider vinegar and distilled vinegar, from the acetic acid contents dissolves the fat, but if any more needs to get cholesterol down it would have to be a mixture of granulated lecithin with lemon oil.
The potassium citrate is often taken 1/4 teaspoon and 1/8 teaspoon magnesium citrate, twice a day after meals. It helps to get the sodium/potassium ratio stabilized, and that is quickly done with CoQ10 and taurine. Vegetable oils have to be avoided since trans fatty acid is the source of cholesterol in humans, it makes it worse if you have chlorinated water or chlorinated showers, as chlorine destroys the endothelial which controls the blood pressure. The idea is to restore endothelial function and mitochondrial function, such as quercetin 400 mg, red wine extract 100 mg are part of it. The best thing to control blood pressure is the old fashioned diuretics.
In general Kidney functions are impaired because we are unable to control the blood sugar and hypertension, if we can that will be preventable. The blood sugar is best controlled also with granulated lecithin usually you need more, which is 1/4 teaspoon x 3 times a day, chromium chloride, 1 mg. I don't like forms of chlorine that act like excitotoxins, such as chromium picolinate, I prefer brewer's yeast.
As to the diet, its actually not quite correct, in research studies, chronic kidney functions is due to lack of ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID, and too much non-essential amino acid. You need high quality protein especially essential amino acid, such as found in whey protein as the source, or soy protein. As far as diets high in carbs you don't need that since he's diabetic. The fats you will need just the normal not too much of that, it's the vegetarian diets with high quality proteins you need to get him on, such as amino supplements without sugar or artificial sugar.
Allopurinol is usually taken at least 100 mg in evening and in morning as it helps restore many functions of the kidney, heart and muscle pain, most people know it as a uric acid reducing drug, but allopurinol does a lot more. There are some reports of kidney functions restored in Thailand with assam tea, and I know that diuretic white tea helps reduce blood sugar. You might give a look at those.

GUIDELINES FOR CHOLESTEROL AND RECOVERY
11/28/2007: Lori writes: "My husband had a heart attack a couple of weeks ago. The cardiologist has put him on different meds, Plavix, metoprolol succinate 100mg, 325 mg aspirin, niacin, robustatin, omeprazole 20 mg. I'm concerned about the blood thinners (plavix) he has some heart damage. He since has quit smoking and has started drinking more water. He was drinking quite a bit of diet pepsi. What would you recommend that we start doing to regain his health. He can't stand the smell of vinegar so I know he won't try that remedy I suggested the cayenne pepper tea, he doesn't like hot food at all. Before his heart attack and for months I started cooking with extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil changed to real butter instead of the margarines. His blood work shows that his bad cholesterol (LDL?) was good at a 78, his good cholesterol (HDL) was very low at a 24. His dr. put him on the niacin to bring up his good cholesterol. Is that what he would take to bring up his good cholesterol. I was reading on the magnesium, if his magnesium and vit D were low would that be a factor in a heart attack? If so, what kind of solution to take for the mag. And D? I also read that one should mix calcium, magnesium and zinc? Should he start on Vit C? I really would like to detox his body to rid of the nicotine and tar from smoking, but with the Dr. meds I'm afraid to have him start more pills. I'm very worried about his health he's still 53 years young. Please reply to this email with specific remedies to help him get on his way to being healthy. God Bless you for all that you do, helping so many people. Thank you."
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Yes, eating some real butter (instead of margarine), but especially the use of coconut oil as cooking oil will reduce bad LDL cholesterol level to near normal. The coconut oil works on an extremely simple principle: the vegetable oils don't degrade to free fatty acids during the heating process as do vegetable oils. Also vegetable oils with free fatty acid gets absorbed into the blood stream as well as the unnatural trans fatty acid commonly found in many vegetable oils in the market. It's the same with margarine. Because coconut oil melting temperature is a lot higher than a vegetable oil (the coconut oil hardens in 75 degrees fahrenheit) they also are poorly absorbed, but yet helps lubricate the intestinal lining, preventing the constipation. This is how coconut oil reduce the LDL. ' The problem about Niacin is the flushing and its effect on increasing HDL is fairly small, only 25%. Most of the increase in HDL won't come from niacin, but from the high diets with high HDL cholesterol, which comes from liquid egg yolk, but without the white eggs. White eggs are an anti-nutrient which prevents absorption of mineral and hence are used in cases of food poisoning, the same as milk. A sunny side up eggs once or twice a day, where the yellow yolk is still liquid, can raise the HDL pretty quickly within weeks, but it WON'T raise the LDL (provided you DID cook it using the coconut oil, on a noniron free, aluminum free cookware. A partially boiled eggs where yolk is liquid is another possibility. Therefore, I personally don't like Mayo Clinic's information on Niacin to raise HDL since they tend to mislead, ever since they started with the problem in research saying vitamin C were not helpful. In fact, during the early 1970s when Linus Pauling promoted the used of vitamin C during that period, hospitals throughout U.S. noted a large drops in heart attack. Therefore, vitamin C sodium ascorbate vitamin C 1000 mg a day will help increase antioxidant. There are several causes of what causes heart attack, but one theory was that woman don't have heart attack because of menstruation which allows the body to get rid of excess free iron metal, while men do not. After menopause the incidence in heart attack of men and woman were about equal. Because of this clue, reducing free metal iron can be done by not using iron or metal cookware, and metal spoons, and use of food in metal container, particular where there is iron. Pomegranate fruits and green tea are high in tannins, and strongly bind to any free metal iron. The problem about the use of green tea is if you need to heat the water, heat them using a glass pot, or a glassware, so that iron cookware and metals do not get into the tea during the heating. Some people actually got more Alzheimer in England from drinking too much tea and I have found that they were boiling their tea in an aluminum container! The green tea I sometimes drink, usually pre-packaged version, UNSUGARED, is 1/2 liter, twice a day. A simple 2 tablespoon of lime juice plus 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in 1/2 or 1 glass of water taken twice a day, can be used as a blood thinner also as it lowers the excess calcium in the blood. The citrate also binds to free metals which creates free radicals in the heart, leading to heart disease. Omega 3 and fish oil are reduces blood clotting and I think taking it once every other day or every two day would be helpful too. There are certain condition of the heart such as aneurysms, and other similar condition that came from fungus infection. If any fungus problem is indicated, I may use the borax remedy, to reduce the cause. Still alkalinity can help this problem too. In my opinion taking niacinamide (B3) as opposed to the niacin B3 also, which doesn't cause flushing of the skin can replace or displace the nicotine from the blood as the niacinamide are chemically very similar, with one less oxygen and hence this may help reduce the blood nicotine by chemical similarity. The dose I use is about 300 mg of niacinamide, plus twice or three times a week B100 vitamin B complex is also synergistic with the magnesium. The magnesium I prefer is either magnesium chloride or magnesium citrate, at 500 mg a day, plus 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda and 1/4 teaspoon of malic acid. The malic acid may also be useful as it give more energy to the muscle heart, as malates is a component in the energy centers of the mitochrondria of the cells, most useful is the heart cells. The magnesium will help relax the heart muscles. I don't like to use any calcium and it causes the excess contraction of the muscles and tend to calcify the tissues which may block normal heart muscle from working. One additional supplement I found to give me more energy and better heart as a result of more bioavailable, as opposed to free metal iron, is the chinese wolfberries, such as taking 1/2 to 1 teaspoon a day may help. I have noticed it tends to warm the heart within an hour of consuming it and give many people I know more energy within hours too. Chinese wolfberries is quite nutrient rich, more so than even a bee pollen and is rich in minerals and all essential amino acids too. I don't know about doctors med, but many of the doctor's med, especially for the heart, tends to reduce the lifespan of individual, despite its effective to treat the symptoms, but create a whole new array of other side effects, which sometimes kills the patient than just the disease itself. I was reading on the magnesium, if his magnesium and vit D were low would that be a factor in a heart attack? Usually magnesium is low, but vitamin D is not, unless of course there is an immunity problem and vitamin D might be helpful in that instances. If so, what kind of solution to take for the mag. And D? The magnesium remedy is already mentioned in this email. For vitamin D the safest form is a cod liver oil of any general dose should be sufficient, usually 1000 mg -2000mg of cod liver oil is the usual dose. I also read that one should mix calcium, magnesium and zinc? A calcium is not helpful for the heart. In countries with high calcium consumption, heart disease is highest, while in countries where magnesium is high while calcium is lower, such as Japan, the heart disease is at the lowest. Should he start on Vit C? Vitamin C reduces free metal iron and increases the body's ability to utilize iron and during the 1970s the huge drop in heart attack were from people taking vitamin C during that period. I really would like to detox his body to rid of the nicotine The best way to detox, I think is a niaicinamide which should displace the nicotine as it is chemically similar with only one oxygen different. The dose I think that is effective is 300 mg, as mentioned. As an extra clue, getting sufficiently alkaline where urinary pH is between 6.5-7, if taking sufficient baking soda and a small amount of potassium citrate should help with most of the heart problems as alkalinity further increases the body's antioxidant as well as allowing the body to heal. A body can heal best if the body is alkaline. It also cause the person to also be less stressful too. Did I forget anything, if so just tell me!"

MAGNESIUM SUPPLEMENT
08/01/2006: Methuselah writes: "I took some magnesium citrate powder right away. I had done some sweating outside today and I was feeling tired-- the kind of sweating that could not have any negative impact on me just a few years ago! But I felt better right away after taking the magnesium supplement."
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Yes, magnesium citrate is quite bioavailable. Magnesium chloride also. The secret is its solubility. You cannot do this with magnesium oxide since they don't dissolve and therefore do not go into your blood stream. This is the same with magnesium carbonate. You can tell. Just put it in a glass of water, they will settle on the bottom.It takes about 30 -45 minutes for the therapeutic effects after you take magnesium. Yes, I have gone so far as to time how long it takes before you can feel it. I have tested many people here in Bangkok, but only in the form of magnesium citrate or magnesium chloride. Bangkok don't have magnesium citrate, so I guess magnesium chloride will do. The advantage of magnesium citrate is two things: it buffers your pH to alkaline and it puts magnesium where your body needs the most: the muscle.
Here is a tip: if you have muscle pain that refuses to go away. A 500 mg dose of magnesium citrate will get almost all the pain out the next day. Let me in on a secret to predicting heart attacks and heart disease. Before people get them, there will be a warning signs. The body, brilliant in its design, will deplete the magnesium from the back, arms and legs before it reaches the heart. So if you have a long term muscle pain and magnesium is depleted, given enough time the heart will be effected. Another way to tell if you are magnesium is depleted is hot weather, and muscle twitching, or nightmare shock such as falling down from a tower. These are just simple signs of magnesium deficiency and by paying attention to these little things, you have a good chance to avoid heart attack. When muscle in heart twitches, just like you have in your arms and legs, it will soon reach the heart, given enough time. Mother nature always warns us, we just don't pay attention. In the States, while I was in High School, way back in the early 1970s no one ever heard about magnesium or even find a good magnesium supplements, for conditions of heat exhaustion for example. Therefore, if you cannot find it, take plenty of sunflower seeds. They are high in magnesium. It just takes a longer time for the body to absorb them and notice the effects -- at least 24-72 hours before you can feel it. The reason is simple, sunflower seeds are not water soluble that much so the body takes somewhat more effort to make use of it."

CURE TO REMOVE CALCIUM DEPOSITS FROM BLOOD VESSELS
07/25/2006: Bryan from Lansing, MI writes: "Hello. I came on your site doing a search for removing calcium deposits from blood vessels. I've had chest pains and did a CT angiogram which showed extensive and dangerous calcium deposits in coronary arteries, aortic valve and aorta. However, I'm losing calcium from my bones and now have osteoporosis. (Male, 73, run 2 to 13 miles, only meds are eyedrops for glaucoma). I've tried magnesium but it gives me irregular pulse. Noted your EDTA. Have appt with nutritionist Thursday. Any ideas on why my calcium is leaving my bones (IF that is the cause of osteo) and going to my soft tissue? Thyroid is iffy but endo says basically normal. Any thoughts would be appreciated."
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Dear Bryan: Calcium leaves the bones only when your pH of your body is slightly acid cause the calcium to leave the body and gets everywhere but the bones. It is the same story as you put bones in vinegar, the calcium will be completely removed from the bones.Therefore, to solve this problem take a fair amount of citric acid + baking soda, at 1/4 teaspoon each mixed with water at least twice a day. With sufficient buffer the calcium won't leave the body and what is in the body the citrates will remove it. To return the body to normal quicker, taking B complex will help, especiall B6. Vitamin Bs work together with magnesium and this is why you have trouble with the use of it. You must take both.
Chickens don't get heart disease because for one thing their drinking water is dechlorinated, but our water is chlorinated. Get a dechlorinator from Pet shops that sells aquarium fishes and put a couple of drops it in your water. Removal of chlorine will prevent calcium carbonate from sticking on to the coronary walls as sodium thiosulfate causes greater solubility of calcium also. Chlorine have a tendency to cause the settling of calcium carbonate, this has been my observations as thiosulfates have a weak chelation capabilities too. Taking EDTA alone will not work as well as you take baking soda together. They work synergistically. "
06/07/2010: Debra from Brisbane, Australia replies: "I have copper toxicity, apparently that can leach ca from your bones. I also have osteoperosis and had it at only 35. Also apparently complete exhaustion is another theory. I have found sodium thiosulfate difficult to get but edta more difficult. Was using suppositories but they are in calcium disodium - didnt want to put anymore ca in my body. Mg and lemon juice is supposed to put ca back into your bones but I am poisoned with mg as well. Apparently there are 52 forms of edta and not all are good. Theres plenty sprouting the dangers of edta but theyre usually selling something else. Ive never heard anyone who has actually done edta IVs say anything but good things about it. But I cant get a doctor to give them to me because Im too sick with other autoimmune illnesses. Good luck."

BURNING FEELING ON FACE
06/03/2006: Ted from Oceanside, CA writes: "My brother in law suffered a heart attack awhile back and now he has this burning feeling on his face. He has been to all kinds of doctors and they can find nothing --help !!!!"
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "The best remedy for a possible circulation problem after a heart attack is that the certain cells in the body is deprived of oxygen and must begin repair after a heart attack. The issue is that once the body is in after a heart attack and some cells die and needs to repair is that the nutrients and oxygen do not reach fast enough.The common approach is to give DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide) -- about 1 teaspoon every couple of hours. The usual dose of DMSO is about 1 teaspoon mixed with 1 full glass of water. DMSO has a downside however -- some people can get skin irritations and smell pretty bad like a garlic.
Aspirin is also quite useful in dissolving the clots to these -- it doesn't block the blood vessels so the cells can receive the vital nutrients. Twice a day of aspirin is preferable.
Usually MSM is used and it is relatively free of both side effects and garlic smell.
[EARTH CLINIC WARNING: We've noticed that MSM does have side effects that may affect the heart or lungs. Click here to read more.***]
If for any reason you CAN'T get MSM and you have DMSO that you have ISSUES about, then an easy way to convert DMSO into MSM is to add 3 drops of 3% H2O2 (preferably food grade - but for emergencies - drug store grade might be acceptable). Wait for the reaction to subside about 10 minutes as DMSO will heat up as it converts to MSM. However, DMSO scientifically speaking is superior in that it attacks free radicals damage in the cells and is a proven treatment in case people are in stroke or accidents. In case you have nerve damage, MSM and DMSO are protective too and allows recovery. Taking some 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda + 1/4 teaspoon citric acid helps optimized your blood to begin healing. Take plenty of vitamin C to allow recovery and cellular rebuilding. As to those twitches, there is circulation problem take any amino acid supplements that allows the brain and nerves to recover. Whey protein might be useful in this instances, but it is important to avoid sugar as they tend to prevent neural repairs, therefore stay away from any sweet drinks and sugar. While it is a great energy booster, it is not great for nerve repair. The worse kinds are artificial sweeteners such as aspartame which breaks down to methanol alcohol or formaldehyde that have a tendency to damage the nerves even more."
