Lou Gehrig, "The Iron Horse" of the New York Yankees died heroically from the disease that bears his name today. He called himself, " the luckiest man on the face of the earth" even though he was dying of the crippling disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, A.L.S., or "Lou Gehrig's Disease". He is a true model for today's youths.

My husband who had been diagnosed with Bulbar ALS disease for 2 years at the age of 63 had all his symptoms reversed with Ayurveda medicine from naturalherbscentre. com after undergoing their ALS/MND natural protocol, he no longer requires a feeding tube. God Bless all Lou Gehrig’s 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. I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you.

Artist Reply: Amy, I am so happy that this treatment is working for your husband. I hope that the ALS Society knows about this. God bless you and your husband.

My husband first symptoms of ALS occurred during covid, but was diagnosed in 2021 when he was 61 years. He was on Riluzole- not crazy about it! he was also on Gabapentin and Radicava not crazy about any of it either, The Rilutek (riluzole) did very little to help him. The medical team did even less. His decline was rapid and devastating. His arms weakened first, then his hands and legs. I was a master Gardener and love herbs! This ALS took my life from me, I was no longer able to work in my garden anymore because I was a full time caregiver for my husband. We stopped most of his ALS medications due to severe side effects and I started him on herbal treatments from Health Herbs Clinic (healthherbsclinic. c om), the treatment has made a very huge difference for him. His symptoms including body weakness and slurred speech disappeared after few months on the treatment. He is getting active again since starting this treatment, he is able to walk and able to ride his treadmill again

Artist Reply: I am very happy that the herbal treatments are working for your husband. I hope you contact the ALS Society and let them new that there are other alternatives. One would think after so many years after Gehrig's death that there would be something that the doctors would have discovered by now! My brother contracted a disease called PSP which has similar traits to ALS. Thank you for your response and you both will be in my prayers.
