    • It might not have been this video in particular but it's exactly these principles that saved mine. This video has done so much though. This video gave me a clear understanding of all the things I need. As a matter of fact I tell people to watch this video all the time. This diet is good for a lot more than anything mentioned in this video. I mean all of that plus.

    • karma kush eating well won’t cause you to lose weight, in fact, it may help you gain lean muscle, strength, energy, etc. I’m not sure if you mean you have physical restrictions or your health situation, but personally I may have MS, definitely a neuromuscular issue- and I’ve unintentionally lost a ton of weight bc of it. I’m taking supplements & staying on top of my food intake, exercise, sleep & other things- it’s all relative & even improving in one of those helps immensely

I stayed and have had her on a strict diet like the one you use, walks in nature and strict sleep routine. There has been such an improvement that she doesn't seem like the same person. She's 82.

  • I was just diagnosed with MS today, and I am thrilled to have come across this video. I thought I was a healthy 43-year-old woman until today, but I know that my diet has not been the greatest over the years. I have a high metabolism, and have been able to get away with eating unhealthy, processed foods for years...until now. I will be switching to the "hunter-gatherer" diet immediately, and I will update everyone on my condition in the future months. I am so thankful to have come across this video so early in my disease. I am confident that changing my diet will help to slow or halt the progression of my MS.

  • The diet in this book works. Yes it’s expensive but as she says you pay now or you pay at the hospital. My fiancé was diagnosed in February and from the beginning she has seen a dramatic recovery both in overall wellness and the lesions on her brain. The things that seem to set her and others with MS back most is dairy and gluten. This book WILL give you hope if you have MS, but it’s work. It’s not easy opting for 9 cups of greens over a cheeseburger. With time it gets easier. You got this!!!

    • Julie E.P. Pharmaceutical companies are only interested in making money and what makes more money, a product that works, or one that does not? When there is a natural product that can produce testable, repeatable, falsifiable results in an externally verifiable way they synthase it and make LOTS of money. Taxol or Paclitael is a cancer treatment that was developed from the anti cancer effects found in the bark of the Pacific Yew Tree. It was researched, synthesized, made into concentrated product for the treatment of cancer and is used widely today. If it can be proven to work in nature, pharmaceutical companies are all over it in a flash because that's how they make their money. So what does all this mean? Well you have just highlighted brilliantly that your a backward simpleton who is completely clueless on subjects to self profess to know everything about. Go an open a book for christ sake and learn something you backward simpleton. The reality you have constructed in your head differs wildly to the one we live in. For those of you not as demonstrably spastic as Julie EP here is some lite reading. dtp.nci.nih.gov/timeline/flash/success_stories/S2_taxol.htm Retards, they out number us but with education, reason and demonstrable fact hopefully we can fight them back.

    • Tohs G I can't be sure if you're joking or really really slow. Can you please name me a business that does not want you to buy their products? Saying the medical industry wants you to buy their products is like saying hookers are only interested in you for the money. OF COURSE they want to sell their products, and the products that sell BEST are the ones with a testable, repeatable, falsifiable track record of actually working. This means just as I pointed out with Taxol ,if its a 100% NATURAL product that has proven results in test trials they synthesize it, purify the active ingredients and make a CUNT LOAD of money. If a company sold bungee cords that did no work how long do you think they would stay in business you demonstrable thick cunt? Its deluded mongs like you that need to be culled from the population.

Rheumatoid Arthritis is nothing more than a condition that I gave myself, it’s gone.

Recently I've become more aware of the amazing power of food, as I can see the immense changes the gluten-free diet has made to my body. Now I'm wiser and try to follow a diet including mostly vegetables, fuits, nuts and seafood. The biggest difference in my diet is using (really) lots of herbs and spices.

Keeping our mitochondria in tip top shape helps keep our telomeres as long as possible. Long telomeres are associated with better health. Thank you Dr Terry sow, soil, berry, bury mulch and munch, country Lorna

  • T Skeen, I have secondary progressive MS, had it undiagnosed and untreated for 4 years that was through high school and my first year of university. I don't believe much in medicine and that it can do much better than healthy eating can. I'm no doctor but after I was put on many different drugs and didn't get any better I regulated my diet very similar to how she did and maintained my healthy lifestyle best I could. I can now run 100m in 11.9 seconds....Two years ago I was wheelchair bound. I'm living proof that what you just said is completely wrong.

  • This is such a great talk. I love Dr. Terry Wahls! Her research, along with that of Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, has changed my life. I have yet to reach full remission, but I went from being in a rapidly declining state of excruciating chronic pain that was taking away my ability to walk to being able to power walk, hike, bike ride, go to the gym, and preform many other actives that used to be out of the question. Most of us think of our 20's as being the peak of our health, but the peak of my illness hit during my early 20's, and I had emotional breakdowns everyday thinking that I was going to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Now it feels like I'm aging in reverse. I feel younger, healthier, and more alive with every passing day. Whether you are looking to cure/prevent chronic illness or just optimize your body's functioning so that you have the energy to live your life to the fullest, I highly recommend looking into their research. It also takes an open mind and a willingness to let go of previously held beliefs surrounding food. Before the autoimmune protocol, I was eating what most of us would consider to be an extremely healthy diet, but that was clearly not the case. It turned out that most of what I thought I knew about healthy eating was wrong. Dietary ideologies can be dangerous. I decided to experiment, and let my body be the one to tell me what I should and should not eat.

  • This woman is a genius. I had a MRT and they found some lesions. I was freaking out - and saw this video. I did what she said, after one year I was able to do another MRT and the lesion which may suggest i have MS got alot smaller! And: it's not expensive if you start growing sprouts - once you have the glasses (in which they grow) and the seeds you can grow your sprouts yourself - they have a lot more vitamins, minerals and all the good stuff the full grown vegetable has. And you don't need to eat 3 plates a day, these sprouts have all the minerals, vitamins in it, you just need to eat a spoon of it per day - and you WILL FEEL a change! And i eat al lot of fish (every second day). I noticed i can think much clearer, i was suddenly able to have my rhetorical skills back (i love talking with people, but i started to "fade away" when i wanted to answer). I thank god for this Ted-Talk. This woman has changed my life. I lost 15 kg in the last year (i'm 1,8m and 60 kg - which is the perfect weight for me) and feel much much healthier. My depression is nearly gone. I have no more panic attacks. Please listen to her, do what she recommends! Especially if you're from the US - i know you have to pay for a doctors visit and you delay this to the point you can't anymore. It's a shame (us healthcare) - i'm from europe and here is everything free (and as good as in the us, or even better... the Saudi princes/princesses are always coming here for a doctors visit), must be even worse if you live there. Believe me, she's right with EVERY WORD she says. Give it a try. Try sprouts!! They will change your life, i promise!

    • Everyone’s lesions get smaller over time. As active inflammation stops, the lesions shrink up forming scars. That’s literally what sclerosis means. It’s anticipated from MRI to MRI over time. It’s a neutral finding. MRT is a very outmoded term associated with the 1980s and Eastern Europe.
