Episode Summary
After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS)– a debilitating autoimmune disorder– Dr. Terry Wahls sought the best care and the newest treatment methods. But despite the doctor’s efforts, her condition continued to decline. Just when she was almost to her lowest point– barely able to walk and dealing with neurological lapses– she was able to turn it all around. Once she created her very own modified diet, specific to what she learned her body needed, she took a 180 and saw her condition rapidly improve. She even was able to complete a 18.5 mile bike ride.
We all know that dealing with an autoimmune disease can be a serious battle. Diseases like Multiple Sclerosis (MS) can sometimes seem almost impossible to manage. But today, Dr. Terry Wahls shares with us that recovering from deteriorating MS is possible.
In this podcast, she tells us her secret to overcoming MS. Her multi-modal approach to wellness can help you drastically improve your quality of life– whether you’re battling an autoimmune disease or not!
Dr. Terry Wahls opens up more about her past and shares with us the struggles she’s faced while battling MS. And we discuss signs and symptoms to look out for that may indicate early detection of autoimmune conditions like MS.
Dr. Wahls developed her own modified paleo diet, called the Wahls Protocol. She goes in depth about the food guidelines and recommendations for following this modified diet. This protocol has helped many others on their path to recovering from autoimmune disease.
So tune into today’s podcast for all this information, and more! You’ll learn how to optimize your health, and be able to guide others struggling with autoimmune diseases to take action to improve their condition!
Quotes
“Her modified paleo diet [can] reverse a really incredible autoimmune condition. Now, this plan is created for vegetarians, vegans, meat eaters, and everything in between. So it’s really just figuring out what works best for you. And the intention here is to reduce the inflammatory process. She also adopts mindset, gratitude, physical therapy, and movement– there’s so many other components to the healing journey.”
“This fundamentally changes how I think about disease and health, and the way I practice medicine and the focus of the research that I do. And forgive me– I have to wipe my nose because I can’t tell that story without crying”
“Consistently, we find that when you improve your diet, fatigue goes down and quality of life goes up– mental health, physical health, and quality of life improve”
