Hi, Sheri. I can appreciate wanting to find something, anything that will help MG improve, please take any information out there with some healthy skepticism.

There are many sensible ways to help MG. Get enough sleep, eat healthy foods, take sensible supplements, reduce stress (because it shortens telomeres, thereby promoting aging), and so many other sensible ways to keep the immune system happy.

Yes, vitamin D is essential. Newer studies do show that it might be the egg, not the chicken and not only a coincidental finding. It used to only be associated with lupus. Now they're realizing how essential it is to health. But it isn't the end all be all of autoimmune diseases, either.

There's also Huperzine A. But it can make MG worse, depending upon what other treatments someone is on. We should inform all of or physicians about anything we take. Nothing is benign and can interact with other drugs or foods that someone digests.

Anyone else have any input on the topic?

Annie
