Summary

A pharmacist turned to food to help improve multiple sclerosis. After years of painful injections Ashley Madden began eating a plant-based diet and the results she experienced were remarkable.

Ashley’s symptoms began to fade quickly and over time became largely non-existent. Her lifestyle intervention worked so well that others began paying attention and asking what she was doing to achieve such a dramatic improvement.

She would soon share her secrets to everyone through her recipes that are as delicious as they are powerful for her health. Many are featured in her blog and cookbooks, including her latest book Plant-Based Delicious.

She is now many years into her journey and continues to be beacon of health.

Ashley joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to share her remarkable story of fighting MS with food and journey back to health on The Exam Room Podcast.
