Welcome to Dishing Up Nutrition, brought to you by nutritional weight and wellness.

We are a Minnesota company that specializes in real food, nutrition, education, and

counseling for real real everyday people.

And today we've got a very special episode for you all.

We are drawing back the curtain on the story of one of those everyday people for whom we at

NWW have had the pleasure to know for the last 10 years and for whom real food,

complementary therapies, and steady, consistent support has been life-changing.

This client was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called multiple sclerosis or MS for short.

And like many autoimmune and chronic illnesses, the long-term prognosis is often bleak. It is usually a tale of progression,

disability, adding on medications, and just trying to manage the ebb and flow of symptoms the

best you can.

But today's episode endeavors to tell a different story, one that involves remission,

stability, hope, and empowerment, and hopefully a laugh or two along the way.

And this person will be the first to admit it is a

journey that has also taken a fair amount of courage. Courage to do things a bit differently

than the conventional path. Courage to keep learning more and to carve out a path that felt right

for her. And for what my two senses worth, I think she is the perfect person

for this job. So without further ado, let's do some introductions. I am Leah Kleintrod, a registered

and licensed dietitian, and here with me today is Linda Letourneau, who will be sharing how she

has kept her MS in remission with real food nutrition

and lifestyle changes without medications. So welcome to Dishing of Nutrition, Linda. Thank you, Leah.

It's great to be here with you today. Speaking of drawn back the curtains, it is so interesting
