Something I found on another web site brought it home to me about our OSC trail and I thought it may be relevant:
The road to good health is not an easy one and there are numerous examples of individuals who unfortunately lapse into negative or poor behavior patterns.
We are proposing that when “failure” points are identified there is an fantastic opportunity to remind the user of previous success.
Reminding a user that they have had success in the past may help to limit self-doubt and reductions of self-efficacy.
The psychological burden associated with failing to meet goals could be quickly replaced with a positive a reminder of the user’s mental and physical capability that is based on objective historical information.
Instead of just having an empty “You can do it!” we envision future services that say, “We believe you can do it because, look, you’ve done it before!”
I think this applies to OSC as it has helped where before we had nothing.
If we can do this with a simple chemical and get results in about 50% or more of those taking it, even if the recovery is weak then we are really onto something and further work is required to make it work better.
Now is not the time to say well it works so far then stops and give in to despair but we should look again at all the variables involved.
The variables involved in just taking a simple compound like OSC are very large and any of these should, have an impact on the results:
1. Amount of dosage
2. Time of dosage
3. Amount taken - splits or on one dose
4. Food before and after dosage and time between
5. Anti-oxidants taken or other suppliments (several vairables here)
6. Daily food consumption in calories
7. Daily food types and variations
8. Type of ALS you have i.e. FALS/SALS or other variants bulbar etc
9. Individual genetic make up
10.ALS Progression level - where are you when you start - how far gone
11. Consistancy - how regular are you in taking the same dose , same time and same amount etc.
I could go into finer details but I think you get the idea
Is it any wonder we all report something diferent?
Into the heart, an air that kills, from yon far country blows.
What are those blue remembered hills, what sphires what farms are those.
That is the land of lost content,I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went and cannot come again
