Collection: Post-Polio Syndrome (PPS)
What is Post-Polio Syndrome (PPS)?
Post-Polio Syndrome (PPS) is a neurological condition that affects polio survivors years after their initial recovery. It typically appears 15–40 years after the initial polio infection and results from the gradual weakening of muscles and nerves that were previously affected by the virus.
PPS is not contagious, but it can significantly impact quality of life, with symptoms that may progress slowly over time. Supporting the nervous system, muscle strength, and overall energy levels is key to managing this condition naturally.
Symptoms of Post-Polio Syndrome
Progressive muscle weakness or joint pain
General fatigue and exhaustion after mild activity
Muscle atrophy (shrinking)
Difficulty breathing or swallowing (in more advanced cases)
Trouble with mobility or balance
Cold intolerance or sensitivity to temperature changes

Important Note
