#56 – Terry Wahls – Wahls Protocol (MS Treatment)

Dr. Terry Wahls is an MD and a clinical professor at the University of Iowa. She specializes in clinical research testing the impact of diet and lifestyle on Multiple Sclerosis (MS) symptoms. She has a remarkable story about recovering from secondary-progressive MS (she was wheelchair-bound) by changing the food she eats.

Mikhaila and Dr. Wahls discuss how to heal autoimmune disorders, the impact of a western diet on our neurology and gut biome, the Wahls Protocol diet, steps to healing a leaky gut and other digestive tract damage, and more.
