Story at-a-glance

a.. Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, degenerative disease of the

nerves in your brain and spinal column, caused by the destruction of myelin,

the insulating substance around the nerves in your central nervous system

b.. Dr. Terry Wahls tells the inspiring story of how she reversed her

multiple sclerosis by switching to a Paleo-style diet focused on fresh raw

foods, high in specific nutrients needed for proper function of myelin and

mitochondria

c.. Essential nutrients for proper mitochondrial function include

animal-based omega-3 fats, creatine, and coenzymeQ10, while your myelin

needs vitamins B1, B9, B12, omega-3, and iodine

d.. Optimizing your vitamin D levels, which is one of the best things you

can do for your health in general, is also one of the best preventive

strategies against autoimmune diseases like MS

e.. Artificial sweeteners like aspartame should be avoided at all cost, as

aspartame toxicity often reveals itself through central nervous system

disorders and compromised immunity, and can mimic the symptoms of and/or

worsen several diseases, including MS
