Hello, my friends. Welcome back to the podcast. I am your host, Vanessa, and I am so excited to be here with you all today.

0:13.0

We have a very special guest joining us today, and that is Dr. Terry Walls.

0:19.3

Dr. Walls is an Institute for Functional Medicine certified practitioner

0:23.7

and conducts clinical trials in the setting of multiple sclerosis. In 2018, she was awarded

0:31.3
