Has Anyone Had Any Luck Going Into Remission With An Anti-inflammatory Diet?

I'm still pretty new at this MS stuff being diagnosed in 2015, but I was fortunate early on to meet an integrative medicine DR who has MS and has successfully treats herself (for many years now) through diet and supplementation. I use the MITO food plan - it's especially helpful for MSers because it targets energy production in the mitochondria. Since I changed my diet, I have not had any new symptoms in over 2 years. I did also detox my personal and household products using www.EWG.org to find safer alternatives.

You can find the MITO food plan here - as well as the elimination diet which I also did - I found several foods that I am highly sensitive to that had previously come back negative on a standard allergy panel test - once eliminated, I have not had any of the issues I used to have.

I'm also on an anti-inflammatory diet and I've never had an attack. MRIs are stable too. I try to avoid gluten and cut down on the dairy. I think diet can be a powerful tool in the arsenal. Good luck.

Im not sure if its remission, but I do feel good most the time. I tried drinking a pop the other day and it didnt appeal at all! Usually, I drink just water. I think after awhile your body prefers the more nutritious things. I have not eliminated everything, but have cut down ALOT on sugary things and processed/pre-made foods.

Yes, some people with multiple sclerosis (MS) have reported improvements with anti-inflammatory diets. Here are some key points from the knowledge base:

- Healthy Diet Impact: A 2014 study found that those with a healthy consumption of fruits, vegetables, and dietary fats had higher quality of life and lower disability rates.
- Ketogenic Diet: Research suggests that a ketogenic diet may help reduce fatigue, depression, and weight, and potentially modulate immunity and reduce disease severity.
- Mediterranean Diet: This diet, rich in plant-based foods, seafood, and moderate poultry and eggs, is recommended to manage inflammation.

Always consult with a healthcare provider before making significant dietary changes.
