More and more people tell us that they are bringing their MS Recovery Diet book along when they go to see their doctors. Most of our readers report that they receive lack of support or even denigration from their physicians. An Englishman wrote to say that his doctor said- “ Oh, are the authors American?” in a very patronizing way.
The bad news is that doctors are very reluctant to give credence to something that is beyond their training and for which, as of yet, there are no hard scientific studies or statistics to help open their minds. The good news is that physicians everywhere are learning from patients like you that with or without their medications or their support, the diet is a viable choice.
As you begin to recover, they will see the empirical evidence for themselves that it works. This is the gift you bring to not only the doctor, who after all does want to help heal his clients, but to all patients with MS when you carry the message with you.
Thank you for daring to experiment with hope and healing; two elements that naturally go hand in hand.
