Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease of the central nervous system (brain and the spinal cord) that destroys the protective covering of the nerves, affecting communication. Globally, 2.3 million people have been diagnosed with MS, and an estimated one million live in the country. It is possible to slow down the disorder’s progression to some extent. Here are the FDA approved prescriptions, eating habits, lifestyle changes, and general preventive tips that can help manage the condition: Treatment options for multiple sclerosis Doctors may suggest either one or a combination of these FDA-approved prescriptions. Kesimpta® injection is used to treat patients with relapsing MS. It works by limiting the impact of the B-cells produced by the immune system that actively trigger MS flare-ups. Ponvory® is suggested as an oral alternative to injections. Additionally, doctors also recommend the use of Ocrevus® injection. It has proven to slow the disability progression by targeting specific B-cells in the immune system. Best foods for MS Nutritionists recommend including more fresh fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants in one’s meal regimen. These foods help fight the free radicals that cause cell damage. Fruits and vegetables, including broccoli, Brussels sprouts, leafy greens, bell peppers, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, strawberries, and oranges, are all rich in vitamin C.
