Enbrel Treats Inflammatory Response

Used for the treatment of psoriatic arthritis and other autoimmune diseases, Enbrel is a large molecule drug, and when given as an injection or IV in the arm, it cannot pass the blood-brain barrier. However, research indicates that if Enbrel is injected into the vertebral vascular system, the drug goes directly into the central nervous system—i.e. the spine and brain.
 
Injected this way, Enbrel stops the inflammatory cascade in the central nervous system within hours—and appears to stop it permanently—thus why it is now being used for spinal stenosis, strokes (of any age), Down’s syndrome, cerebral palsy, PTSD and any neurological injury or genetic defect that causes an inflammatory response.
 
Dave, a 74 year old carpenter, had a stroke seven months ago which severely affected his eyesight. His left arm and leg were also affected with less mobility. He started walking with a cane and had to give up his carpentry as well. Within 20 minutes after the Enbrel injection, his eyesight improved; within 48 hours, he was moving his arm and leg better! His neurologist said he would never get back to any normalcy—never say never!
