https://facebook/TerryWahls Dr. Terry Wahls used functional medicine to bring herself back from debilitating MS, and now teaches others how to use the Wahls Diet to heal. Description Dr. Terry Wahls is a clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa Carver College, in addition to an avid clinical researcher with over 60 peer-reviewed scientific abstracts, posters, and papers to her name. She is also the author of Minding My Mitochondria, and the upcoming book The Wahls Protocol. In 2000, Dr. Wahls was diagnosed with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis. By 2003 she had transitioned to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. It was clear: eventually she would become bedridden by this disease. However, using her training, she dedicated herself to forestalling that fate as long as possible. Searching for a treatment brought Dr. Wahls past many medicines, supplements and prescriptions, all of which led her to ask: “What if I redesigned my diet so that I was getting those important brain nutrients not from supplements but from the foods I ate?” Thus, The Wahls Diet, and The Wahls Protocol, were born. Within a year of beginning her plan (Dec. 2007), Dr. Wahls was not only walking, unsupported, again, but completing 18mi bike rides. With the release of The Wahls Protocol in March 2014, Dr. Wahls hopes to give every man and woman the tools and knowledge they need to become personally expert practitioners of health behaviors to enjoy maximal health and vitality. These range from intensive nutrition and meditative practices, to regular strength/aerobic exercise and maintaining healthy family/social relationships. The Wahls Foundation supports research and provides education to the public and medical community about the connection between the food we eat, our toxic load, our stress management practices and the health we have or do not have. Teaching methods include seminars, workshops, digital resources, internet pages, and print resources.
