The Wahls Protocol

How I Beat Progressive MS Using Paleo Principles and Functional Medicine

While this book is very thorough in explaining what Terry Wahls did and why, and offering detailed explanations of what the reader should strive for, it is clearly written by someone who is financially very comfortable. I fully believe in consuming organic vegetables and grassfed meat, but I cannot afford to eat that way all the time even though I place a priority on it (the meat in particular is expensive; fortunately we have great local sources of organic vegetables). As for the healthcare options she recommends, those too are costly, especially if you utilize multiple remedies. Even the supplements will add up to a substantial sum monthly. Candidly, I also find her "Wahls Warriors" testimonials rather self-aggrandizing. I'm glad she has helped other people, but "Wahls Warriors"? I'm not interested in joining a cult. Having said that, I would encourage sufferers with MS to read this book anyhow, with an eye to seeing what can be gleaned from it. I don't have MS but I have friends who do, and anything that can slow down or reverse this horrendous disease is of value. Even if it only convinces you to stop eating processed foods laden with chemicals, you still will be better off.
