Description
Written by two women with MS who have learned how to reverse many of their symptoms, this book is a heavily referenced review of how trigger foods, leaky gut, autoimmunity, inflammation and nutrition therapy may play roles in Multiple Sclerosis symptoms and recovery. With traditional medicine still calling this a progressive, incurable disease, it gives hope to visit world-wide research and case studies on individuals that show another approach and different outcomes.
