Managing Multiple Sclerosis Naturally: A Self-help Guide to Living with MS

Judy Graham is an inspiration. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis when she was just 26 years old, 35 years later Judy Graham is still walking, working, and is a mother to a now adult son. In this totally revised and updated edition of her groundbreaking Multiple Sclerosis, first published in 1984, she shares the natural treatments that have helped her and many others with MS stabilize or even reverse the condition.Beginning with the effects of diet, she explains that many people with MS have been eating the wrong foods and shows which foods are "good" and "bad," how to recognize food sensitivities, and how to correct nutritional deficiencies using dietary supplements. She also looks at reducing the body's toxic overload, whether from mercury amalgam fillings, chemicals, or medications. She presents the exercises with proven benefits for MS she has found most reliable and appropriate, such as yoga, pilates and t'ai chi and explores alternative therapies that provide relief and support to the body's efforts to control MS, including acupuncture, reflexology, shiatsu, reiki and ayurveda. Most important are the insights she provides on the effects of negative thoughts on MS. She demonstrates how a positive mental attitude can actually slow down or even reverse the progression of this disease. Judy Graham is living proof that, as devastating as a diagnosis of MS is, life can still be lived to its fullest.'If I had MS I hope that someone would recommend me to read it and I am sure that many patients will find it enormously encouraging'.
