What to eat in Ataxia

[Ayeshaabeer20]

I am suffering from SCA and i dont know much about it, the last thing i know is goto Rehab centre.Mostly the online websites helps alot in increasing information🙈

havent heard of rehab for ataxia unless it is drug related but I believe that generally a healthy diet consists of Mediterranean style foods. For me it is essentially keeping weight down and optimum nutrition. Lots of useful advice on google search.

Specially for SCA, rehab is always the best option like i have no power in my legs and they are just supporting system.can you explain Mediterranean foods

[PatsyIpswich in reply to Ayeshaabeer20]

The foundation of the Mediterranean diet is vegetables, fruits, herbs, nuts, beans and whole grains. Meals are built around these plant-based foods. Moderate amounts of dairy, poultry and eggs are also central to the Mediterranean Diet, as is seafood. In contrast, red meat is eaten only occasionally

Thankyou soo much. Appreciated😀

I've been in a rehab center 3 times. Makes a huge difference. It really helps. But it's very tiring. Very hard work, but worth it

My advice is to see a speech pathologist.

Good luck.

A speech therapist, talk to your primary care doctor or neurologist.

Good luck
