How Dr. Terry Wahls Cured Her Own MS with Dietary Changes

It is amazing how many major medical breakthroughs come through physicians experimenting on themselves. For instance, 2 doctors shared the 2005 Nobel Prize for proving that ulcers were caused by bacteria by first infecting themselves with bacteria and curing it with an antibiotic.

I'm extraordinarily impressed by the paradigm of functional medicine. I went so far as to buy this book to figure out how to interpret my own comprehensive nutritional testing results. http://www.metametrix.com/learning-center/books/2008/leifm It seems like functional medicine basically has the right answers, but is still broad and vague enough that alternative practitioners can wrongly use the paradigm to make whatever conclusions they want.

I'm 5 days into a post-paleo diet of the type described in this video and have never really felt better, happier, or more energized. I also have an auto-immune disease that might make me respond unusually well to this kind of dietary intervention.

Roy Walford "proved" that calorie restriction with nutrient supplementation does nothing for ALS. So I'd want to look at the details.
