Knowing More About the Incurable Syndrome – Sjogren’s Syndrome

Sjogren’s Syndrome is a chronic, autoimmune disease that is quite debilitating. Sjogren’s Syndrome begins with a number of symptoms that appear to be merely irritating. The temptation with Sjogren’s Syndrome is to treat the symptoms as something odd and temporary. Do not. You have got precious little time while your body’s immune system is wreaking havoc with your exocrine glands.

 

Quite literally, your body is attacking the moisture producing glands. This autoimmune disease (Sjogren’s) usually first attacks the moisture producing glands of the mouth (salivary glands) and eyes (tear glands – “lacrimal glands”). Later, often, other exocrine glands are involved, such as the vagina, skin, respiratory and gastrointestinal systems.

 

I said you had precious little time. I meant that. Normally, doctors will be quite encouraging that there are “months and years” before Sjogren’s symptoms really cause serious health problems. That is misleading.

 

As a (retired) surgeon, I have seen patients first waste months – even years – in sheer wonderment. However, the symptoms increase their effect in Sjogren’s Syndrome constantly. Nuisances grow gradually worse in Sjogren’s, no doubt.

The next step is the really damaging “time-waster” in Sjogren’s. That is when a Sjogren’s Syndrome victim sees the doctor. Diagnosis is necessary in all cases of chronic disease (including autoimmune diseases like Sjogren’s).

 

In Sjogren’s Syndrome patients, there are several published criteria for the diagnosis of Sjogren’s. The European Community Criteria is very practical. It requires 4 of 6 criteria for the diagnosis of Sjogren’s:

 

Sjogren’s Syndrome creates complications in the moisture of the eyes.

 

Sjogren’s Syndrome also creates oral symptoms (mouth moisture problems).

 

Sjogren’s Syndrome often can show keratoconjunctivitis sicca (inadequate tear film protection of the cornea resulting in excessively fast evaporation or premature destruction of the tear film).

 

Sjogren’s Syndrome often shows inflammation and swelling of salivary glands.

 

Sjogren’s Syndrome deteriorates into further salivary gland involvement.

 

Sjogren’s Syndrome builds autoantibodies in patient serum.

The real “time-waster” is what happens next. To understand this, you must understand something about doctors before you tackle Sjogren’s Syndrome or autoimmune disease in general.

 

Doctors are literally surrounded by drug company representatives from the first day of medical school until retirement. You see, doctors are the life blood of the drug company (prescription) business. Without doctors, drug company business would “dry up”.

 

Here is the “kicker”. Doctors are officially the third leading cause of death in the United States, just behind heart disease and cancer.

 

I saw many patients whom I believed died of many kinds of chronic and autoimmune diseases, because I suspected their doctors had prescribed their drug regimen incorrectly. I was wrong. Doctors are officially the third leading cause of death because they prescribe drug regimens correctly, just as the drug companies instruct them to do. And people are dying.

 

The problem is a simple one. The drugs, at best, waste the precious months and years until the autoimmune functions of Sjogren’s have done tremendous damage. At worse, they make matters much worse. The real problem is that autoimmune diseases like Sjogren’s Syndrome are caused by a deficiency of glyconutrition.

 

The drug companies know all about glyconutrition and its impact upon Sjogren’s and other autoimmune diseases. But they cannot make any money on glyconutrition. And it threatens to wipe out a whole industry full of autoimmune drug therapies (including Sjogren’s, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and many more), totaling literally billions of dollars. Since the drug companies are the ones endowing the medical schools, drugs – not glyconutrition or supplements – are taught to the doctors.

 

Most doctors know very little about supplements, let alone glyconutrition. Despite the fact that four Nobel Prizes have been won in glyconutrition…cellular communication… (that is unprecedented in Medicine), most doctors do not have any real knowledge of glyconutrition because they do not have the time to learn it (or many other health subjects). They depend on the research of the drug companies to keep them abreast. They trust the drug companies just as Sjogren’s patients trust the doctors.

 

Glyconutrition is the need for 8 specific saccharides, vital to immune system functions. No matter what other supplements you are taking, without glyconutrition, humans will die of chronic disease. Glyconutrition is not a vitamin or mineral supplement. So, if you are taking supplements, that fact will not help you with Sjogren’s Syndrome necessarily.

 

Think of it this way. If you took the “world supplement super pill” of some kind but it lacked Vitamin C, you would die of scurvy.

 

The same is true of glyconutrition. Without it, your immune system will not function. In fact, as in autoimmune diseases such as Sjogren’s, the immune system cannot regulate itself properly, so it cannot distinguish between good tissue and bad. Sjogren’s Syndrome is the specific autoimmune complication lacking proper amounts and use of the glyconutrients galactose and n-acetylglucosamine.

 

If you or someone you love has Sjogren’s, get the glyconutrition. Clinical trials and testimonies of Sjogren’s patients have been literally amazing. Often, the results are quick. Mere days to weeks for improvement. I am talking real improvement here too.

Do not wait to ask your doctor about it. They are as ignorant of glyconutrition as Sjogren’s patients are (usually). I know. I deal with them all the time. None of my friends (doctors) knew anything about glyconutrition.

 

Stop wasting time. Oh yes. You might not want to trust your “instincts” here.

 

Why?

 

Well, Sjogren’s Syndrome often causes “fuzzy thinking” too. That is why Sjogren’s patients are fearful, indecisive, and cannot decide their doctor – or family – does not agree with.

Make the decision. Get the glyconutrition. Now.

You are running out of time.
