Discs can regenerate. I used to think that they couldn't until I took updated xrays on my wellness chiro patients. Most didn't but a few did double in size. They were all 65 yrs old or older. When looking further into this what the deciding factor was that these patients actually exercised regularly, ate a clean diet and were grateful people. We are design for self healing and self regulation. Unfortunately for most people our life choices limits the healing potential. Hopefully this can help motivate the many. Good luck!

This is from six years ago, but mister, you're so amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

the tire analogy doesn't hold because it's not a living tissue. even bone can heal and grow stronger. I wasn't born with discs the size they are now, they grew. I'm skeptical, I think we'll find out this stuff can heal if you create the right conditions for it to do so.

Unforrunatel, his answer has been proven outright WRONG in newer scientific studies such as "Degenerative Disc Disease Reversal: Rethinking Human Physiology" from 2021 by Dieter Matthias Meier. To quote from the study: "This resulted in the growth of the degenerated disc, which increased the lateral angle between L5 and S1 by 80% coinciding with freedom of pain, free range of motion and an improvement of autonomic balance. This was documented by full spine X-rays and a pre- and post-scan of the autonomic nervous system. Conclusion: This study shows that growth of intervertebral disc tissue is possible without the use of medication, surgery or cell transplantation and should be the beginning of rethinking functional physiology and the importance of translational medicine"

Hi Dr Mandell thank you for this very informative video. I am a 66 year old male and been very fit until August 2022. I used to be a long distance rider, worked out at the gym but in the last 10 years I was hit by negligent drivers that hit me in the bike lane. Therefore massive whiplash, fractures, etc. I recovered each time and kept riding until August 2022. I noticed that I had a very nasty neck pain in the left of my neck, which has got worse of the next few months. I did stop riding all together because it was causing me a lot of inflammation. Now I have issues in the upper part of my thoracic spine, down the right of L2/L3/L3/L4. I have seen a neurosurgeon who recommended no surgery and I was put of pain medication plus some cortisone injections. My neck pain has increased so badly that I can't sleep without tablets. Now I also feeling referred shoulder pain, arms, hands and fingers. Also burning pain, numbness travelling to my lower back, groin, legs and feet. When I sit I feel tightening of my groin and feet. My right calf also hurts. To make thing worse I get headaches, light headed, right side tinnitus. This causes depression, anxiety, high blood pressure because I can't get no relief. It is 24/7, I can't sleep unless I take opioids and nerve pain meds. I have tried physiotherapy, osteopathy, acupuncture and I am not improving. I can't drive the car due to pain when sitting. What can I do naturally for my neck and spine? Thank you in advance. Best regards. Alfred

Hi doc! Thank you for the information. I would like though to disagree with you on impossibility of regeneration (of any tissue in our body really, not only discs, and those deposits of calcium on vertebras etc.): maybe, indeed, there is no much of blood vessels bringing nutritions to discs, but *still* they *get* nourished *somehow*, they are living tissue and they would have been dead things if they didn't get nutrition, and there is nothing dead in our body, as far as I know. If we were to take the stress off a disc (fix spinal structure) it would inevitably regenerate. I don't know (yet) wether you do or don't discuss dietary importance on this channel, but that aspect is quite important for our body's health. Great videos, thanks!

At least he is honest. Think all you can do to stop getting worse is build up your core muscles to take the strain instead of your back discs.

Hi! my L5 disc burst, so there is herniation and the disc looks at least half as thick as a 'normal ' one. My surgeon says that I should not get a surgery at this stage since physiotherapy is helping me and I have no severe pain. She also says that the disc, even if thin, will not get thinner since it will get stiffer. As I said, I lost lots of the 'gel' in the nucleus, but still, it seems that this broken disc will become harder and somehow more resilient. Does it make sense to you? Obviously with the physiotherapist I am mainly working on posture, core strengths and general mobility. I was told that my thin disc cannot really disappear.

Hey dr al thanks for all the videos. You mentioned we have to stop doing what's causing our problems... this is horrible news for me.

I don't want to depreciate Doctor Mandel and his huge knowledge and great experience but he is not a God and also he isn't expert of spiritual healing and "mind over matter" philosophy which explains miraculous healings when medicine cannot help. I only want to say that quantum phisisicists becoming to a point when they must agree with mysticism and all teachings of spiritual great masters who were always teaching that everything is possible when you believe. If you believe in something, it happens exactly what you've expected. Quantum physicists also know that today and understand that all is energy which changes all the time.

First start moving, walking, hidrating, ( drink more than just to satisfy your thirst), start eating best nutritional food,( salads, kale, broccoli, onions, beans, nuts, seeds, fruits), stop sugar, deserts, white bread, etc, stop eating meat, cheese, eggs, etc. After prepare for some fasting: stop eating breakfast forever; after 1-2 weeks, eat afer 18- 20 hours from meal to meal: ex eat at 18:00 and next meal after 18-20 hours next day; after 1 week eat one meal a day: at 18:00 and next day from 17:00-18:00, for a week; after that start fasting for a 48 hr; after for 3 days, after for a week. Go back to one meal a day for a week. Start fasting for 3 weeks. Go back for one meal a day for a week. Fast for 3 weeks. After that you start healing, continue to walk every day and start exercising Ci Gong for spine lower back and neck. The explanation goes to fasting, when the body goes into a surviving mode and start scanning the whole body and repairs where is a problem. Good Lock, I tell you from my own experience, I had from nowhere DDD on L5-S1 with severe spinal stenosis, bulge on L3, L4 and T1; Doctors have no solutions ather that fusion surgery, that is a disaster.

when somebody decide to do fasting, don't warry you will feel hunger just on time of the meal that you don't take and just a mild hunger on the next missing meal, after that you can fast without feeling any hunger for many days of not eating at all, because your body is not living based on calories, but consuming your body fat. In this mode, the body maintain a steady low level of blood sugar, so not a suddenly spike of insulins, that cause the sensation of hunger.

My search was intended to find out what to do supplement wise after all the mechanical issues are fixed and my diet is KETO because I am type one and I wish to take as little insulin as possible to keep my glucose in check. I already take most of the basic supplements and I have increased my "C" intake for inflammation. I also am taking R-alpha for eight years as I had whole body neuropathy from 2012 - 2019. Some others I use are glutathione which I have used successfully to remove age spots and skin cancers. I also take hyaluronic acid, Niacin, B12, etc. I get many good aminos from raw A2 milk with added protein and raw chocolate for minerals. So what supplements should I use to heal the damage from the grinding action of the disks once the disks are back to proper alignment?

Stay hydrated. Build muscle , carefully

I am suffering from ddd (degenerative disc disorder) due to years of spending time behind the wheel and not exercising . Now. exercising regularly and SLOWLY starting to notice improvement. I'll never be as good again, but at least I'll slow down the breaking down. Stretching helps (but can be very painful - no pain no gain) hanging upside down to decompress - is great.

Discs degenerate because of improper posture sleeping on your stomach sitting in front of a computer for hours with no breaks and so on... It starts on one disc and the that disc gets thin and that causes more pressure on others and they start to degenerate as well... Thinning of the disc causes bones to grow in diameter so they can keep the balance of the spine but it can pinch nerves. And the pain can also come as a result of muscles being clenched 24/7 because that way they can offer support to your spine. Also you need to understand that this is not a disease as the name says but its your bad habits. Discs can also heal with proper nutrition and this is backed up with new researchers :).

Without examining you I cannot comment what your restrictions are. Although most people with bulging conditions can usually perform their normal activities.

I had a C6 7 T1 fusion. My C5 is so degenerated that the 2 vertebrae are rubbing on each other. Is this dangerous for the vertebrae? It’s causing a lot of pain. Not bothering nerves but just physical pain

As far as I understand, discs can and do actually rehydrate. This is why you’re the slightest bit taller when you first wake up, since the discs have rehydrated a bit while you were sleeping in bed. Therefore what I would suggest is to stretch out that spine while in bed just before you go to sleep at night.

What about stem cell therapy ? Does it work

Sir what is peridiscal eburnation and early disc desiccation?

What foods do you think can reduce inflammation in the disks?? Because stretching seems to worsen when I change my diet negatively.

McDonald's, alcohol, and cigarettes will definitely help.

it's a MAYBE. I was diagnosed with "facet dysfunction", parents paid like 3,000$ cash for PRP, and nothing. bastards. that was years ago. now my spine is equally fucked, and it's been atleast 5 years.

I had a neck back pain for last more than ane and half year. I had a MRI and found two impression:- 1). Decreased disc space and posterior disc bulge at C5-C6 region(no e/o spinal canal or neural foraminal stenosis) 2) Partially dessicated multiple cervical discs. I am doing some therapy for more than 6 months but even the pain still exist. So any one please tell me any suggestion what shoud i do for recovery.
