Episode 30: Transformational Approaches to Multiple Sclerosis and Autoimmunity with Dr. Terry Wahls

Sep 29, 2017
51:34
Dr. Terry Wahls was a practicing primary care physician when she was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting MS. Despite treatment at some of the finest medical institutions in the United States, her health progressively declined until she could no longer walk. When she discovered functional medicine, she made a rapid turnaround. Soon she wasn’t just walking again, she was doing 20-mile bike rides. Today, Dr. Wahls conducts research using variations of her protocol, including intensive directed nutrition, progressive exercise programs, electrical stimulation, and the use of dietary supplements for patients with MS. She conducts her research at the Iowa VA, through the University of Iowa and is supported through grassroots fundraising. In this episode of New Frontiers in Functional Medicine, Dr. Wahls talks with Dr. Fitzgerald about her physical and spiritual transformation — and how other patients with chronic conditions can realize similar results.
