Easing the pain of MS - Shauna Fischer’s story helps prompt unique research study



In recent decades, the number of young women diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, or MS, has grown — women of child-bearing age who are in the prime of their lives.

MS, an inflammatory disease that assaults the central nervous system, brain, spinal cord and optic nerves — is potentially debilitating and painful.

Squiffy,

do you know the name of the supplement and where we could purchase it from?

Supplements are not the worst way to go..

Hi Daisy, it appears to be apoaequorin. Quncy Bioscience Site is http://www.quincybioscience.com/

Hope Trials Site - http://hopetrials.com/

Thanks Squiffy,

It's an expensive little product. Holland and Barrett don't stock it...

Yes, the supplement being studied is the protein apoaequorin. You can receive the supplement for free by participating in our study. We're conducting a placebo controlled, double blind study to examine all the benefits of this protein for people living with MS. The study can be participated in from anywhere throughout the United States. Surveys will be sent via the internet. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for those living with MS.

There’s only two weeks left to sign up for our MS research study! Enroll, and you'll get to work one-on-one with someone from our HOPE Trials team to discuss the potential benefits of adding an apoaequorin supplement to your diet. There is never any cost to participate, and your data is used for research purposes only. Support MS research and sign up at mshopetrials.org. Enrollment ends 8/31/11!

What if someone wants to be part of the trial and does not live in US. Can u ship it to other countries

Is there any possibility that MS patients in Canada can participate in this study or do we have to wait to get approval for this also?

Hi!


I think that with apoaequorin there is a Candida link, just had a quick scan, apoaequorin is linked to calcium and I think those with candida are calcium deficient.

Needs more looking into by someone.
