Summary
Recent research in epigenetics shows that eating the wrong food for you can turn disease-promoting genes on. The good news is that when you get on the right plan, many serious conditions can be reversed.
We’re here today with a remarkable woman and friend, Dr. Terry Wahls. She teaches others how to heal conditions commonly considered to be untreatable with cutting-edge science and a healthy dollop of good old common sense.
Dr. Terry Wahls is a Functional Medicine Practitioner, Clinical Researcher, and Clinical Professor of Medicine at the University of Iowa. Though she is widely respected as a leader at the forefront of functional medicine and health, what sets Dr. Wahls apart is her experience using nutrition and lifestyle interventions to treat progressive health problems, to heal her own multiple sclerosis, and later, that of others.
Within a year of beginning her Wahls Protocol, Dr. Wahls went from a zero gravity wheelchair to completing an 18-mile bike tour without drugs or surgery.
