This condition is linked to the facial nerve where the face becomes paralysed on one side. In most cases, the paralysis is temporary and will pass within a few weeks.  Ina a small number of cases, symptoms can remain for longer periods of time or indefinitely. In rare cases, both sides of the face may be affected. Bell's Palsy can affect any age group but is more common in those over the age of 40.  The condition can develop over a period of hours or days.

 

Symptoms typically include mild pain and numbness in the affected side, inability to close the eye, difficulty in smiling and wrinkling the forehead, slurred speech, tears in the eyes due to difficulty in closing the eye, and sometimes the sense of taste can be diminished.

 

In many cases, no specific cause can be estalbished, but it is thought that a viral infection of the facial nerve may be involved and in some cases, there may be a connection with the Herpes Simplex Virus.  Following an anti-viral protocol can often be effective, so our reccomendations would be as follows:

 

Zell-Oxygen is essential for all health conditions where the immunity is lowered - a product that has many years of successful clinical use behind it and can justly be described as an essential supplement.  Rich in all B Vitamins as well as A, E, D, K, beta carotene, minerals, trace elements, and amino acids such as Methionine, Gluthathione and Cysteine. Followed by Co enzyme A and Co enzyme Q 10 plus a number of  other enzymes, it serves to raise the overall level of health, a vital remedy in cases of viral infections

 

Ongoing research may eventually restore Colloidal Silver the "Natural Antibiotic", to its once accepted status as probably the most versatile and effective natural agent against bacteria. Colloidal Silver is non-toxic, non-addictive and free of side effects; it is thought to kill an average of 650 different organisms - compared to the 6 of a standard antibiotic!  It is safe for adults, children, animals and pregnant and nursing women. It can be applied topically and internally and has no reaction with other medications. 

 

If simple swelling is responsible for the facial nerve disorder, we would suggest the use of Serrapeptase to reduce the pain and inflammation and suggest that there may be an underlying health condition that needs addressing in a holistic manner, The Core Regime & The Auto Immune Disorder Protocol tend to resolve the underlying causes of disease and poor health in a natural balanced way.
