Almost one year of SG on the counter.
Perhaps time to do something about my subscription, maybe not.
Money is tight, for now I won't.
If you don't see me coming along anymore, my special thanks goes to people from the Depression Outlet and Pain-Fatigue-Illness groups.
About a year ago I found SG because of a sick interest in Suicide. SG was a nice surprice to run into
I promised my friend, who gave me this account, that I would live another year to extend my subscription, but I'll text her to let her know I'm still alive
Anyway. MS. My life sentence. A few months ago I ran into work of Terry Wahls, a doctor from the US suffering MS herself. She was at the stage where she needed a tilt-recline wheelchair to get through the day and when on foot, she could only do very short distances, but using two canes.
She studied nutrients and food containing them which you need for a healthy brain, after all MS seems to be a brain desease.
With result. She got out of the wheelchair and her canes are doing nothing but catching dust nowadays.
I've never needed a wheelchair (so far). A cane however, is a different story.
At the end of January I started to move my eating habits towards the Wahls Way. I soon started to feel really good. A week after I started this 'diet' I had to take MS medication, Avonex, it made me feel sick as fuck. I gave it a four weeks chance, but four weeks in a row I felt sick for 3.5 days straight. The fifth week I quit Avonex. No regrets so far. I don't expect regrets either. The only withdrawel symptom was feeling really good. Me happy, my neurologist happy, *we* happy.
I used an ankelbrace. Two weeks into the diet I stopped using it.
That diet? Fairly simple:
Meat: fatty fish/organ meat/grass fed meat
Vegetable1: green leafes
Vegetable2: brightly colored ones
Vegetarian? Dig into that, there's special info for that. I myself didn't, I gave up being vegetarian.
1 cup of each, 3 cups a plate, 3 plates a day.
These were the basics, if you want to know more, do your research. She goes far in explaining what you need in lectures you can find on youtube, and she has informational stuff for sale. Pricy, especially if you realize all the written material can be found in her lectures. But, it's nice to read back on it on your own time and get some new ideas perhaps.
Last year I hardly bothered to write blogs or so, but this peace of information is the least I could share, I am doing well enough to expect the improvements turn my world literally upside down in the long run.
There are several chronic deseases affected by changing what you eat, mental as well as phisical. If you wonder why this would help you as well:
You have nothing to loose, and so much to gain.
Just try.
Cheers,
Ian

Terry Wahls rocks my world since recent.
I'm going to blog about my personal experiences on the Wahls Way on http://foodiscrucial.com or http://etenisleven.nl in Dutch.
