Remedies for Guillain-Barre Syndrome



Since this is an autoimmune disorder that affects the nerves, there are no natural remedies for Guillain-Barre Syndrome. For those seeking such remedies, a visit to the doctor is recommended as the symptoms may worsen very quickly. Any delay may result in development of complications.

In case the diaphragm and the chest muscles have been weakened due to the disorder, the doctor may prescribe you a specific diet for Guillain-Barre Syndrome. In rare cases, the doctor may have to prescribe hospitalization for insertion of a feeding tube. This is done in order to prevent complications of aspiration pneumonia, which may in turn be fatal. The recommended diet usually consists of soft foods low in proteins and high in carbohydrates. The doctor may not recommend a change in diet at all, depending on the individual’s condition and prognosis.
