         WHY THIS SEARCH?
  • 45% of patients with Autoimmune Disease like Multiple Sclerosis were dismissed as hypochondriacs in the earliest stages of their disease
  • 73% of Doctor’s do not feel qualified to diagnose and Treat Autoimmune disease
  • Patient’s report it takes more than 3.5 years and nearly 5 doctors to receive a correct diagnosis
​
STEP #1 FOOD, FIGURING IT OUT

“Our Food choices can either create Disease or Health”.         Dr. Terry Wahl

If you listen to industry experts like Terry Wahl, Food is the reason she has the level of recovery
she does today. She also advocates for vitamins, supplements and EMS therapy, but food is
both at the heart of this disease and its recovery.

Food contains the nutrients we need to fight off viruses and bacteria that can lead to chronic
disease like the Epstein Barr a virus often associated with MS. “Most “experts agree that eating
foods designed to provide nutritional cellular nourishment is the key to health. Because we
essentially consist of trillions of cells that are the building blocks, we are made of these cells
need certain nutrients to do the work of keeping us alive and healthy. Those necessary nutrients
come from the food we eat so if you give the body what it needs and remove what is poisoning it
your body can finally concentrate on healing itself.

Our top 3 favorites sources of information about healthy food choices for Multiple Sclerosis are
The Wahls Protocol by Dr. Terry Wahl. I like Dr. Terry Wahl because her MS is in remission and
she speaks from experience concerning her recommended diet. I will also say that her diet is not for the faint of heart but it works for her and many others. Matt Embry who has been symptom free since 1995.  Matt’s father is a research scientist who designed a diet along with a list of supplements that has proven to work for him over time. You can find more about this on his website MS Hope. Anthony Williams is another author worth reading about MS, food and toxins. He’s called a Medical Medium and has a great book on the subject called ‘life Changing Foods.

UTI INFECTION & MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS
​
THE CONUNDRUM OF UTI INFECTIONS WHEN IT COMES TO MS PATIENTS

WHY ITS SUCH A SERIOUS PROBLEM

If your reasonably healthy and get a UTI infection it’s not a huge problem, one round of antibiotics and you’re done. Not with Multiple Sclerosis where its common to experience several UTI infections per year. 
The chronic nature of this infection has so many serious repercussions that we want to understand how its triggered and what we can do about it.

​One of the symptoms of multiple sclerosis occurs when the immune system destroys nerve tissue resulting in numbness that commonly spreads throughout the body as it progresses. Because of this “sensory dysfunction” MS patients don’t always know when their bladder is full or feel the pain of a bladder infection. When my daughter explained this fact to me, I was slightly horrified, how can you treat something you don’t even know you have? These circumstances are a recipe for disaster, an untreated UTI infection not only risks causing further complications but the need for an excessive amount of antibiotics. Those are 2 issues MS patients don’t want to add to their already full plate.
