Nutrition advice

[StandByMe2]

Hello everyone,

I'm a 50 year old male and have recently been diagnosed with Ataxia due to hereditary SPG7. Has anyone got any advice about what I should eat or avoid eating and what supplements I could try? Many thanks

🙂 Unless someone has been specifically advised otherwise..this is general advice..

🤔If you’re on Facebook…there are specific SPG7 Support Groups.

Hi I have just read your post and I am looking for 'guinea pigs' before I launch myself on the unsuspecting paying public as I will hopefully qualify as a naturopathic nutritional therapist by the end of November. My husband has idiopathic ataxia and change in his diet has reduced his fatigue considerably but his balance is stubbornly not improving. Though I will be reviewing his supplement regime once I have finished studying. A nutrional therapist not only advises on dietary changes but also how to implement such changes which argueably is the hardist bit. Best wishes
