Overcoming Auto Immune Disease with Dr Terry Wahls | Ep. 57 - a podcast by Rebecca Coomes

Dr Terry Wahls was confined to a tilt-recline wheelchair for 4 years with multiple sclerosis, before restoring her health using a diet and lifestyle program.

On today's episode, Dr Wahls joins Rebecca Coomes and shares her journey with MS, why she developed the Wahls Protocol and how gut health has a big impact on our overall health.

On today's podcast, they discuss:

? How she discovered she had multiple sclerosis and why conventional medicine did not work for her

? The connection between the gut and autoimmune diseases like MS

? The nutrition principles of the Wahls Protocol

? Why Dr Wahls encourages her patients to eat 200+ plant based foods per year and how someone with SIBO can increase diversity in their diet

? Why we should be thinking about our mitochondria, the little powerhouses that energise the human body

? Healing milestones, and why they're important, and how to find the energy to focus on healing when you're chronically ill

? How Dr Wahls manages setbacks and the psychology of chronic illness
