FUMS 103 - Diet and Lifestyle to Halt Your MS w/Dr. Terry Wahls

FUMS: Giving Multiple Sclerosis The Finger

05-04-2022 • 38 mins

The idea of using diet and lifestyle changes as a way to manage MS was still pretty radical until fairly recently. But as more research is done, the benefits are becoming more recognized day-by-day.

My guest today is Dr. Terry Wahls, who has been studying the links between lifestyle and MS outcomes since getting her first symptoms twenty years ago. After being confined to a tilt-recline wheelchair, Dr. Wahls restored her health using a diet and lifestyle program of her own devising.

Dr. Wahls previously appeared on the FUMS podcast back in 2018, so I figured it was time to get her back. I wanted to find out about recent clinical findings about the efficacy of diet and lifestyle as a way to treat multiple sclerosis - which is increasingly gaining traction as a recognized way to manage your health!

We also talk about the findings of recent studies into Paleo, Swank, and Mediterranean diets.
