Hi guys. Welcome to episode three of the Real Foodology podcast. My name is Courtney Swan. Today's episode is a really incredible, inspiring story. I interviewed my friend Danica about her journey with multiple sclerosis

0:22.0

and getting off her meds. And it's just, it was such a good reminder to me of how resilient

0:28.2

our bodies are and how much diet and lifestyle changes can really affect the way our bodies operate.

0:33.6

It's a really cool story. I'm excited for you guys to hear it. Listening back, though,

0:38.1

I realize that we never actually talked about what MS is. So for those of you listening who are

0:43.1

not sure what it is, it's a disease of the brain and spinal cord. The immune system actually

0:49.3

attacks the myelin sheath that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problems between your brain

0:54.7

and the rest of your body. Eventually, over time, this disease can cause permanent damage or

0:59.1

deterioration of the nerves, and it can be a pretty serious diagnosis, but it's not a death sentence.

1:05.6

I also want to take this time to remind you that neither of us are doctors and your experience is individual.

With that, let's get to the episode.

1:25.8

One thing I really want to do on this podcast is to answer all of your questions that you might have.

1:30.7

I get so many people on Instagram asking me questions all about nutrition, health, wellness.

1:36.2

Sometimes I don't have time to answer all of those.

1:38.9

So I wanted to use this platform to start answering some of those questions for you guys.

1:43.1

I'm hoping eventually that I can

1:44.4

start having you call in and we can have like a real discussion about it on air. But in the meantime,

1:49.1

I'm just going to answer these questions that I get on Instagram. Feel free to message me on my

1:54.3

Instagram at Real Foodology and I will try to get to all of your questions. You can also email
