Dysautonomia and the Sign Dilated Pupils

Dysautonomia is an imbalance in the autonomic nervous system.  The sign dilated pupils is evidence of dysautonomia.  Note the dilated pupils in the baby picture.  This shows that dysautonomia is congenital.  Note the dilated pupils in a closeup view of the same person in their 20’s.  In the last photo note the dilated pupils of a female adolescent.  This is evidence of dysautonomia.  While there may be other factors that can cause dilated pupils, dysautonomia should be considered.

 

For some reason the nutritional needs of people with dysautonomia are greater than that of most people.  Adults should supplement with B Complex (50mg per day) and Zinc (approximately 30mg per day). They should be eating raw almonds and walnuts, celery and carrot sticks, fish low in mercury, beans, and eggs (6 eggs per week).  When their bodies nutritional needs are met the autonomic nervous system should go back into balance and their pupils should no longer be dilated.

 

If their nutritional needs are not addressed, they may eventually develop Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, AKA Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome, AKA P.O.T.S. Disease, AKA Neurasthenia, etc.

 

It’s like a car that requires premium gasoline and you give it regular gasoline, eventually you are going to have problems, but if you give it the premium gas that it requires, it will be okay.

 

It’s important that health care providers recognize this sign in order to prevent the undesirable consequences that could happen, usually in the patient’s 30’s.

 

It’s like Gerald Poesnecker N.D. D.C. author of “Chronic Fatigue Unmasked” said, “It’s a terrible price to pay for ignorance of nutrition”.

 

A good analogy regarding this sign dilated pupils, is that it’s like driving a car on a road and you see a sign that says dangerous curve ahead 100 feet, but you can’t read the sign because it’s written in a language that you don’t understand.  As you continue driving you see another sign that says dangerous curve ahead 20 feet, but again you are unable to read the sign. The next thing you know your car is going off a cliff because you couldn’t read the sign.

 

It is my hope that health care providers in the United States and around the world will be able to recognize this sign, dilated pupils and know how to treat it BEFORE the undesirable consequences that were previously mentioned happen.
