About this episode
Do profound health transformations inspire and motivate you? Then you’ll want to listen to this conversation with Dr. Terry Wahls, who went from being in a wheelchair to living life as an active, busy professional. Dr. Wahls is living proof that you can change debilitating conditions like multiple sclerosis (MS) with diet and lifestyle changes. Dr. Wahls – a clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, clinical researcher, and author of several books including The Wahls Protocol® – was diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2000. In December 2007, she began the Wahls Protocol®. The results were stunning: Within a year, Dr. Wahls could walk without a cane. She even completed an 18-mile bicycle tour! Here, you’ll learn about Dr. Wahls’ TEDx talk that changed everything, her big a-ha moment that helped redesign the paleo diet, and the moment that changed everything for Dr. Wahls (and left her family in tears). Plus, you’ll hear about why the Wahls Protocol® is ideal for any autoimmune condition (not just MS) and the one simple dietary strategy EVERYONE should do. JJ and Dr. Wahl also talk about the most inflammatory foods (and the best anti-inflammatory options), how The Virgin Diet and the Wahls’ Protocol® overlap, the groundbreaking research Dr. Wahls is doing to challenge the conversation about MS and other autoimmune conditions, and where to start if you’re just beginning the Wahls Protocol®. Whether you have MS or another autoimmune condition, or you need a big hit of inspiration, you won’t want to miss this information-packed conversation where Dr. Wahl proves that with the right diet, lifestyle, and mindset, anything is possible. As a thank you for listening, you’ll get Dr. Wahls’ five-step process that she uses in her clinics to help patients improve their health behaviors.
