Hi All,

Anybody here dealt with MS and has seen results with a Paleo diet/lifestyle?
I have an acquaintance who was just diagnosed with MS. She wants to control
it with diet and exercise but I am not sure what type of diet her doctor is
recommending. Thought I would check here and see if anybody has seen
positive results with Paleo considering MS.

TIA,

I don't know about paleo specifically being of help, but I do know that low 
carb high fat moderate protein may help.  There is some info on this at Barry 
Groves' website.  Here's a link _Multiple Sclerosis: Information - Second 
Opinions_ (http://www.second-opinions.co.uk/ms.html)  and he has a quote from Dr. 
Wolfgang Lutz who also has used such a diet with success in MS patients.  Ditto 
for Dr. Jan Kwasniewski -- Polish doctor who uses an extremely high fat, low 
carb, limited protein regime -- we're talking around 80% fat.    Good luck to 
your friend.  I believe that while she may not be able to undo damage, she may 
very well be able to slow the progression or arrest the progression of her 
disease.
