TED Event - a talk by Dr. Terry Wahls about how she essentially cured her own MS through diet.
Bump for later.
If this is such worthwhile info, why don’t you summarize it, please, so people can read about it.
Excellent find! Thanks for posting this. I sent it on to family and friends.
I just sent this to a friend with MS.....thanks.
I’ve been eating paleolithic since slightly before Thanksgiving. My health has improved dramatically, I’ve lost about 30 pounds, and I feel like I’m 20 years younger.
I’m sure that Dr. Wahls, like me, wishes she had eaten this way her entire life. I hope others heed her wise words.
Ping!

Thank you so much! She is so inspiring and makes me want to try it. I have books on it but have not gotten around to it. I have a sense of urgency now.

I have MS. I’ve read and listened online to Dr. Wahl’s info...here’s a link that summarizes alot of the info:

(Dr. Wahl is also famous for having the son who’s video went viral after he testified to Iowa legislators about being raised by two moms.)

She not only used diet but neuroelectrical stimulation.
Since it worked for Dr. Wahl...good for her. But you’ll notice there are lots of things for sale on her site...book, dvd’s, CD’s...and notice they’re pretty pricey.
I’ve also followed those who have follow Dr. Wahl’s protocol, because if you have the disease, you’re pretty much willing to try anything. Their results aren’t so spectacular. Not saying it doesn’t work for some, just doesn’t work for all. And it’s never wrong to improve your diet.
I did find it interesting that the vitamins and supplements she recommends I was already taking just due to reading I had done in the past.
Call me cynical, but I hold to the Princess Bride philosophy: Life is pain highness, and any body that’s trying to tell you otherwise, is probably selling something.
That being said, if you read and listen long enough, she notes that because it worked for her, she is not saying it’ll work for others.
