Guest guest Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 ,Congratulations on not getting the migraines and on the progress that you note. Would you be able to elaborate on the diet, I am very interested as Dr. Wahl's story has spurred me into action as far as my whole family's diet but particularly my son as he seems to be so hyper-reactive to supplementation and quickly grows intolerant of anything that I give him whereas he seems to tolerate eating anything and everything under the sun - I am desperate to get better/optimal nutrition into him and to help remedy some of the problems that he has. How did you get info on the diet? Did you buy her book? Would you recommend it? Any comments appreciated as you are the first person that I've come across who is doing this diet. Thanks very much,Darla Hi , Thank you. Yes, I found increasing anti oxidants helped a bit but did not lead to the near total calm we have since starting bio resonance. I was sceptical but it helped a friend's son in a similar way so gave it a a try. is much better, so I am presuming it was cluster migraines (they appear in autumn and/or spring so we were waiting for another occurrence but did not get one). He has his appointment with the neurologist in July (shockingly long wait!!!) so see what he says. In the meantime he is following Dr Terry Wahls MS diet (mostly......well he is a student) and says he feels really good...he is prone to depression but the diet seems to have done the trick with that....got everything crossed here on this too. I really want to get back to doing TST but will leave it for a bit longer....I understand what Vicky means about being apprehensive! Was it the 3rd set you got to or 4th? Great to hear that Vicky is still doing well. x Hi , That is wonderful news about - thankgoodness you have found something that helps.

Guest guest Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Hi Darla, If you go to her site - http://www.terrywahls.com/ there is a thing on the right to enter your name and email and a screen pops up with details of the diet : http://www.terrywahls.com/eating-the-wahls-way?EID=20995640 & CID=4094495 My NT son in London (at university) is following the diet but is also eating carbs that he seems OK with. He has always suffered from bloating and classic migraines since he was six then started what I think are cluster migraines last autumn. Both sorts of migraine are debilitating and all he can do is curl up in a ball wherever he is (not good on the streets of London so very worrying. He is also prone to depression. He says he feels great and eats the veg mostly raw. He is a student and so will be also doing unhealthy things like drinking beer! At home I am doing the diet with my autistic son (17) he is doing well at the moment but I am also doing bio resonance with him which I am putting a lot of his improvements down to. He could not have tolerated most veg pre bio resonance as he could not cope with sulphur veg ...he seems fine on it now. So she says basically all organic , no sugar and avoid any foods you have a problem with (gluten etc). Then 9 cups of veg a day (mostly cooked here but also juicing and smoothies) stews, soups, thin slices (like crisps) in the oven on a very low heat (can't afford a dehydrator) and salads. I also do mixed with gram flour and cooked in a pan that has been heated with a tspn of olive oil then wiped. The veg is 3 cups of each of coloured/sulphur/leafy (rotate the coloured veg as much as possible). He is not coping with meat at the moment but have tried him on organic chicken and lamb....will try again at some point. She says grass fed meat or fish once a day. Also organ meat once a week (he seems to cope with liver). You also need seaweed....and berries....She likes kale but I am having trouble sourcing organic kale at the moment. Most of this I found out by watching her lecture. I am trying to follow the diet myself and feeling more alive and less exhausted. I am still eating wheat which I should not but have given up dairy. Her sight says the following about her book : I have been working on my book, THE WAHLS PROTOCOL™:Defeating Progressive MS Without Drugs. My literary agent, Lynn lin, and I are looking for the right publisher. I have sent her an email asking about it...she has loads of other books. HTH , hope I have not missed anything out! Good luck and let me know how you get on. x , Congratulations on not getting the migraines and on the progress that you note.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2012 Report Share Posted May 14, 2012 Thank you so much, , for your thoughtful reply, it was very helpful, somehow I had overlooked that screen pop up and getting the diet helped. I have been roughly following her diet for a bit (as much as I could tell from watching her videos) as I was finally able to get the greens down after I bought a Vitamix and could drink them in a smoothie - it seems that I can get anything down if it is blended in the Vitamix - I frequently am having kale for breakfast in a green smoothie when I pretty much otherwise can't stand it. I went on her diet (or my approximation of it) because I was having a terrible recurrence of migraines - they were every single day and the nausea was all day long. After about 2 weeks of the diet (very roughly) my migraines went away (until I had some cilantro which seems to be the only food that I can isolate that triggers migraines) and I am vastly improved. The problem for me is sticking with it AGH. Anyway, I am motivated to stick it out as best I can since after 45 days now the migraines are gone - my assumption is that eating such a restricted diet has removed the foods that must have been triggering the migraines (I just could never figure out what they were). I am working hard to get to eat more of the foods that she recommends, especially since he has some neuromuscular symptoms but it's hard work with him. At first he would drink a bit of green smoothie, then he told me that he would have smoothies but only if they weren't green! If only I could get kale to taste and look like a strawberry milkshake, lol. Anyway, I will stick it out with him as better nutrition can only do him good. However I must say that he actually eats things like kale at school - just not at home! Thanks so much and your son must be very excited not to have the migraines, they are truly awful.Best Wishes,Darla Hi Darla, If you go to her site - http://www.terrywahls.com/ there is a thing on the right to enter your name and email and a screen pops up with details of the diet : http://www.terrywahls.com/eating-the-wahls-way?EID=20995640 & CID=4094495 My NT son in London (at university) is following the diet but is also eating carbs that he seems OK with.
