Lots of fresh, nothing that is packaged/dried/processed, and the best thing i've done for ages, lactose free milk!!! No more farting or bloat or running to the loo!

I LOVE seeing this thread!

All 3 of my doctors have told me that diet has nothing to do with this disease.

I believe 100% they are WRONG.
and I believed them at first.

I got the ' MS Recovery Diet' book and it educated me and made me try different things and I am ever so glad I did.

The book talks about food sensitivities and allergies. They think what triggers MS is having a sensitivity/allergy to a food, which activates the immune cells and then start attacking the myelin sheath.

So I rubbed some of my taco meat on my forearm one night.. I looked down about 20 minutes later and the area that I rubbed the meat on wasn't red, but was completely inflammed, it was raised off of my arm about a half an inch.

That was enough evidence for me, so I stopped eating red meat. I noticed by the end of that month my numbness on the right side of my abdomen had completely subsided and my symptoms were not as pronounced.

I gave in a month ago and ate a burger (thinking it couldn't possibly affect me too bad since I had been without it for months), OMG! BAD MOVE! The next day I was stumbling over ever step I took with my right leg, my feet and legs were numb, my hands were numb, and it felt like the right side of my body was melting into the ground.

Burgers and steak were my favorite (still are) but it's not worth what it's doing to my body.

since switching to raw milk I am dramatically better about lactose intolerance. The paturizing process kills all the bacteria good and bad.Its the difference between live milk and a dead product. it kills the CLA and so forth, so you lose most any benefit from drinking it. I switched to organic milk for a while and did better, but once I switched back to raw it was amazing. no more lactose intolerance! no gas after drinking it. no more belly ache.

Red meat is very tricky as well. if I eat supermarket meat I get tummy aches, rashes, and dont feel well. I can get headaches, stumbly and generally have trouble. if I eat meat from the local farm that is grass fed, free range and we know each scrap of food that animal ate, and it wasnt rammed full of antibiotics I can eat all the red meat I want. Did you know that a normal package of hamburger from the grocery store has 100s of different cows mixed into the meat?

I know where my chickens come from as well. I can go visit them, check on their diet, see that their houses are clean and their eggs are well tended. The yokes of their eggs are a deep dark yellow, but the ones from the store are pale and light.

I think that the commercialization of our foods has done us a great disservice and we are paying the price for it. ADD, ADHD, Bi-polar, Lupus, MS, and so many other inflammatory conditions. Most of the corn grown today in the USA is meant for commercial purposes such as high fructose corn syrup, or other such chemically laden products.

Once I started educating myself about what I was putting into my body, from food to medicine to exposing myself to harmful cleansers and toxic body lotions I was shocked. When I started removing these things from my life, it improved dramatically.
