MS is a disease of the central nervous system and it is made worse by inflammation. The inflammatory process destroys the myelin sheath (which is the protective coating that surrounds and protects the nerve fibers of the brain, optic nerves and spinal cord). The nutrient-rich, anti-inflammatory diet I recommend in my books, including the Gold Coast Cure (along with targeted nutritional supplements such as high dose pharmaceutical-grade fish oil) helps stop the inflammatory process that destroys the myelin. The nutrient-rich, anti-inflammatory whole foods diet also helps combat fatigue, which is a huge problem for many MS patients. Finally, the whole foods diet helps with weight loss, and since fat cells have the capability to increase systemic inflammation, losing excess body fat helps decrease inflammation and indirectly helps MS patients feel better. A whole foods diet isnt a cure for MS, but it absolutely can help MS patients feel betterand, most importantly, without any negative side effects.
