The early onset of ALS is often very subtle - these are the initial Symptoms of ALS to watch for:

• twitching and cramping of the muscles, especially those in the hands and feet
  
• muscle weakness in the arms or legs
• loss of motor control in the arms or legs
• general weakness and fatigue
• tripping and falling
• dropping things
• slurred or thick speech
• difficulty chewing or swallowing
• uncontrollable periods of laughing or crying

The parts of the body affected by early symptoms of ALS depend on which muscles in the body are damaged first. For instance, one person may experience trouble grasping or lifting, another person notices that he is stumbling or tripping more often, and a third person may notice episodes of slurred speech.

Regardless of the part of the body where ALS first makes an appearance, muscle weakness and atrophy eventually spread as the disease progresses. Later symptoms may include:

• shortness of breath
• difficulty breathing
• difficulty swallowing
• difficulty chewing
• tight and stiff muscles
• complete paralysis
  

Although the rate at which the disease progresses varies from person to person, if the disease remains unchecked all ALS patients will eventually succumb to complete paralysis, including needing a ventilator to breathe and a feeding tube for nourishment.

Note: Most health care professionals claim that nothing can be done to stop the progression of ALS, reverse symptoms of ALS, and that it is futile to try.

They very likely are unaware themselves that a few people have managed to stop the progression of the disease and even reverse some of their symptoms.

It is true that some people with early symptoms of ALS progress so rapidly that very little in terms of alternative therapies can benefit them - but as some others have found, there are combinations of therapies that have, at the very least, substantially improved the quality of their life.

We recommend using targeted nutritional supplements in conjunction with a safe detoxification and chelation protocol as a simple, non-invasive way to help the body regenerate and recover.
