These are some of the resources I’ve used in the last few years as I’ve recovered from MS. I hope you can find them useful as well! – Dr. Wahls
Direct MS is a nonprofit organization devoted to examining the link between diet and multiple sclerosis.
This site provides information about the Institute for Functional Medicine. Here you can likely find physicians and other providers (worldwide!) who also believe that MS is a result of the interaction between toxic exposures, infections, food allergies, genetics, and individual stressors.
Dr. Terry Wahls is best known for her work in using diet and lifestyle interventions to manage MS, a condition she’s been diagnosed with herself. As a clinical professor, an author, and a speaker, she educates the public and medical community about the healing power of the Paleo diet and therapeutic lifestyle changes that improve the health and vitality of autoimmune, neurologic, and chronically diseased patients. Through her work, Dr. Wahls aims to shift the standard care for autoimmune patients and create an epidemic of health.
