Members engaged warmly with a question about functional medicine doctors and dietary changes for MS, with many sharing their personal experiences cutting out dairy, gluten, and processed foods and noticing real improvements in strength and symptoms. Several members offered practical tips, including removing one food group at a time to track its impact, trying anti-inflammatory diets like Paleo or Mediterranean, and adding supplements like magnesium, omega-3s, and protein shakes. A recurring theme was that diet plays an important role in managing MS, and that seeing multiple types of providers, including naturopaths and functional doctors, can offer a more complete approach to care.

@A MyMSTeam Member you are right. I was tested for celiac and it was negative but I had some marker that was abnormal, so I have to remove the gluten for a few weeks and then slowly add it back in and see if it still bothers me. Some people don’t have celiac but they have a gluten sensitivity.πŸ€—

Now chickens are given artificially colored feed so the yolks of the eggs will have an orange hue , similar to the grass fed chickens . They do too much crap to our food .

I was told to avoid red meat from the stores to many dyes and preservatives. To buy it straight from a farmer.
