Tics can be due to nutritional deficiencies, genetic disorders, Tourette syndrome, immune system malfunction, allergies, or stress. Stress and anxiety can increase the frequency of facial tics. Emotional trauma can cause tics that may resolve when the emotional disorder is treated. Tics due to emotional trauma or stress may improve or disappear with Hypnotherapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Energy Therapy, Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) Yoga, Tai Chi, Music Therapy, Homeopathy, Interactive Metronome, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, HEMI Sync, Acupuncture , massage and scalp acupuncture. Secondary mood disturbances can exacerbate the severity of tics.
Treating and curing facial tics or Tourette’s syndrome with common amino acids is the basis of orthomolecular medicine. Large doses of naturally found proteins called amino acids can restore the brain’s imbalance and correct malfunction. These amino acids are affordable and used in therapeutic doses far greater than the levels normally found in food. The concept of orthomolecular medicine is based on the use of very large doses of vitamins, minerals, amino acids or botanical extracts for the cellular repair and improvement of normal brain and motor activities.
Lithium mineral salt may help this patient if Tourette’s syndrome is present, but it would not help most other types of facial tics. Plant compounds that can treat tics and reduce tics and spasms include kava, skullcap, valerian, St. John’s wort, peppermint, black cohosh, dragon bone, prunella, rose hips, Go Teng, Tian Men Dong, Bai Shao, Yin Chen Hao . The use of orthomolecular medicine includes magnesium, zinc, calcium, B vitamins and chromium, along with the herbal ingredients to support recovery.
Orthomolecular medicine uses large therapeutic doses of carnitine, tryptophan, taurine, GABA and 5-HTP. Theanine, GABA and 5-HTP can work well for stress-induced tics. These amino acids must be taken long-term for Tourette’s syndrome and you may consider IV therapy in the worst case for at least nine months.
This patient may have severe allergies and may benefit from the elimination of genetically modified foods. The diet should be changed to exclude unsaturated fats, caffeine, nicotine, artificial sweeteners, food additives, food colorings, alcohol and high-fat meats. Try to eat free-range chicken, organic meat, organic or locally sourced eggs, and limit red meat to twice a week. Your breakfast should always be relatively high in protein. This can be whey protein, almond milk or soy protein. Walnuts, yogurt, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and pecans are great snack ideas. Remember that corn is often a genetically modified food. Popcorn can be a good snack if you’re sure it’s not genetically modified. Organic or locally grown fruits and vegetables are the best health options. Avoid foods that are often contaminated with pesticides or heavy metals. Plant fruit trees in your yard for more fresh fruit.
