What to Know About Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and How Our Wahl’s Certified Team Can Help

Multiple Sclerosis and The Wahl's Protocol

What is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that attacks the protective covering of nerve fibers. This causes inflammation and damage, disrupting communication between the brain and body. As a result, people with MS may experience fatigue, weakness, vision problems, and mobility issues.

Who is Dr. Terry Wahls?

Dr. Terry Wahls is a physician known for her groundbreaking work in MS treatment. Diagnosed with primary progressive MS in 2000, she gradually lost the ability to walk, stand, and even sit. Frustrated with conventional treatments that only managed symptoms, she sought alternative solutions.

Her research led her to discover that nutrition plays a key role in brain and nerve health. She developed The Wahls Protocol®, a diet and lifestyle approach that focuses on nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory foods, quality proteins, and healthy fats. This plan also includes regular exercise and stress management. Today, Dr. Wahls rides her bike to work daily, proving that recovery is possible with the right strategy.
