How I Defeated MS with Food with Dr. Terry Wahls
Episode description
Dr. Terry Wahls was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis. By 2003 she had transitioned to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis.
She underwent chemotherapy in an attempt to slow the disease and began using a tilt-recline wheelchair but nothing seemed to help slow the slow decline of her health.
Dr. Wahls restored her health using a diet and lifestyle program she designed specifically for her brain and now pedals her bike to work each day!
She is the author of The Wahls Protocol: How I Beat Progressive MS Using Paleo Principles and Functional Medicine, The Wahls Protocol: A Radical New Way to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions Using Paleo Principles, and The Wahls Protocol Cooking for Life: The Revolutionary Modern Paleo Plan to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions.
In this episode of the Fall In Love with Fitness podcast, Dr. Terry and I discuss how she overcame MS and began riding her bike again, how the foods we eat impact every aspect of our lives, and how our diets can slow and even prevent diseases.
