Publisher's summary

Like many physicians, Dr. Terry Wahls focused on treating her patients' ailments with drugs or surgical procedures - until she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2000. Within three years, her back and stomach muscles had weakened to the point where she needed a tilt-recline wheelchair. Conventional medical treatments were failing her, and she feared that she would be bedridden for the rest of her life.

Dr. Wahls began studying the latest research on autoimmune disease and brain biology, and decided to get her vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids from the food she ate rather than pills and supplements. Dr. Wahl's adopted the nutrient-rich paleo diet, gradually refining and integrating it into a regimen of neuromuscular stimulation. First, she walked slowly, then steadily, and then she biked 18 miles in a single day. In November 2011, Dr. Wahls shared her remarkable recovery in a TEDx talk that immediately went viral. Now, in The Wahls Protocol, she shares the details of the protocol that allowed her to reverse many of her symptoms, get back to her life, and embark on a new mission: to share the Wahls Protocol with others suffering from the ravages of multiple sclerosis and other autoimmune conditions.

Confirms All of My Beliefs

Terry Wahl does a fantastic job at explaining why we need nutrients and why we need them in certain forms.

It is disappointing that there is no .pdf to have some of her points and lists in one place.

Great book, will change your life

I am a physician and I thought it was great. At times she goes too far with holistic medicine and part of it MS focused but the rest is great.
I heard it twice.

Great book, great narration on this edition only

Highest recommendation for everyone, no matter the health status. The newer version of the book is superior, but the narration on this edition is the only one tolerable. I’ve read and listened repeatedly, each time benefiting my health and my family’s health.

Unbelievable

This is hands down the best book I've ever read, in terms of the value it can bring to your life. It empowers you with the knowledge to take control of your health, and your life. Dr. Wahls breaks down complex diseases that affect so many people, into a form that let you understand what causes them, at their core.

This book is about getting the root of problems, not medicating the symptoms. It's logical, easy to follow, and very realistic to implement.

Dr. Wahls has an inspiring story of her own. It will make you rethink everything. You'll wonder how you ever lived without this information. Even better, with this book, you can make changes to better your life immediately.

Incredible book.

Good info but incomplete

Good for beginners who are ill and change their diet for better health but the author falls short when she doesn't give us the other treatments she used for her MS. An example would be what she used for her leg pain with electrical stimulus.

Live healthy now with The Wahls Protocol

Dr. Terry Wahls and her Work in developing a healthy human being through the science of diet and physical activity should become the new standard for the way we all live our life!

Thank you Dr. Wahls for sharing your knowledge and making it understandable! It may be a long audiobook but every second is worth listening to. It will change your life for the better and I now tell everyone I meet to read or listen to what you have to say. It is important work you do and I love you so much for your continued research. I have already seen improved health and I was not or am not sick, but have noticed the benefits after adjusting my diet and continuing my exercise program.
Thank you again! Love and respect, Richard Krent
