What people don't realize is that he doesn't have the progressive form of MS.. When you do, it is difficult to exercise due to the loss of your ability to walk and to make your body cooperate. His diet & exercise may be a very good suggestion for early RRMS, but when you have lost control over your body from this disease... It's a struggle to be strong enough to even get through each day... I have seen my husband go from a hard working man to a man who struggles to walk, talk, remember things, and even to know if he has to go to the bathroom... I've met people with MS who are going blind, live in a wheelchair, & struggle to get their words out that keep pushing themselves every day... These are the people who should represent the true story of MS... They are the real faces of this disease... & they show the world that even though the adversity, not to give up...
Yes, Debbie... That is what I am talking about... People who have Progressive forms of MS... Since these forms are rarer forms, they are rarely represented to the public... My husband has PRMS, and has progressed rapidly, even with his medications and, yes, exercise through physical therapy... Despite dietary changes, supplements, exercise, he has progressed to spasms whenever he tries to use the muscles in his legs... So, he is in a temporary wheelchair... Waiting for a permanent fitted wheelchair.... So, now, he can only exercise his legs from his chair... Until they spasm... And his arms... Until the tremors set in..... Keep trying, Debbie... Don't ever give up trying... I just felt like someone who is dealing with these worsening symptoms of Progressive Multiple Sclerosis should let people know that life with this disease is not as easy for everyone.... This disease that people say is a hidden disease... For some, is not hidden at all.....
Thanks so much Millie for your reply, I'm much the same as you husband, I try every day, with me it's not hidden, I use a walking frame at the moment, but feel like I will be in a wheelchair very soon, :( xx
Hey !!!! I don't know how much I can be of help at this point ! I have it to ! Just recently diagnosed with it last year ! Have you looked up LDN ! If not please do
I am a Singer Songwriter who suddenly found it difficult to play my guitars. Turns out I have MS and Montel this presentation is a great inspiration for me. Thank you! Tommy Gunn
This is Montels way he does it. Anyone with MS knows there are no two cases alike. Personally, I was told by a doctor after being in a wheelchair for six months, I would never walk again. Instead of just listening to what the doctor said, I got mad, and thought I’ll prove him wrong. After months of hard grueling work, I’m proud to say I walk today. I can relate to some of his symptoms, but I have a lot more pain. With MS, everyday is different, I can go on and on, I was diagnosed at the age of 26, I’m 52 now. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs. The biggest life change I did that did help me was I moved to Florida. I was told years ago by a doctor the vitamin D from the sun might help. He was right, while you need to avoid the heat in the summer, it has paid off for me personally. I was in northern Wisconsin. I’ve thought of making a video to share my experiences, and there have been a lot
Dx in 1996. I agree with everything Montel says. The medics try to tell me I have spasticity coming in and I am transitioning from remitting relapsing to secondary progressive. I’m not taking that, the points of a label is not to serve me, it’s for the medics to categorise! I have always tried to keep doing everything I want ..... I’ve encountered times when I haven’t been able to walk ..... up I have never opted for a wheelchair. Cause I am determined to keep my legs going ..... I’m with you Montel ..... live each day to the fullest!
You are so right i just told my wife maybe a cane but i am determined never to end up in a wheel chair. I just turned 48 and have had ms in my early 20s😎
I've had MS for 35 years and have never used meds. Like you said, I eat organic fruits and vegetables. I rely heavily on my Vitamix for smoothies. I've been gluten free many years before I was diagnosed. And many years before it was acceptable. Fortunately, my doctors are on board and just say carry on, you're doing well. It's not a cure and I live in the UK, so I get very little sun. I was educating myself long before I knew what was wrong. I've found that being knowledgable and proactive means having a better relationship with my doctors.
I have been living with MS since '96 when I was only 19 years old. I am in my 40's now and yeah of course my MS has progressed but I still am surviving. My doctor and neurologist tell me to continue maintaining my lifestyle.
I applaud everything that Montel is doing and saying. I have much respect for him and think that he is doing the right things. The only problem in some peoples lives is that they can't eat healthy because they can't afford it and some ppl are on disability and are lucky to be eating 'something', even with food stamps, because they don't get enough money on disability. I wish that there was something set up where ppl that had MS, Cancer, Rheumatoid Arthritis, autoimmune diseases,etc...could get healthy food so they could fight the diseases head on like Montel is. Some people eat Ramen every week just to get by and that's not healthy. One of the main problems is that healthy foods are too expensive and the unhealthy foods are cheap. Something should be done so that eating healthy is possible for everyone, even the poor. But back to MS...everything Montel is saying is right & make sure you don't over do it and take your meds. I think everyone needs to be on one of the MS drugs whether it's Avonex, Rebif, Copaxone, Betaseron, or whatever your doctor puts you on because the sooner your on one of them the sooner your disease slows (for most). What it boils down to is... 'take care of yourself' however you can because you only have this one life.
SLaRee333. HAVE TO WRITE IN CAPS AS IAM LEGALLY BLIND. WITH THAT SAID I AGREE WITH WHAT UR SAYING ABOUT THIS HORRIFIC DISEASE.. AT AGE 26 I BROKE MY LEFT FOOT VERY BADLY IN 5 PLACES, I KNEW VERY QUICKLY THAT SOMETHING WAS REALLY WRONG. APPROX. 1 YR. LATER I WENT TO AN ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON WHO KNEW IMMEDIATELY THAT I HAD (C.R.P.S) COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME) A SEVERE NERVE DAMAGING DISEASE THAT SPREADS KILLING OFF BODY PARTS AS IT PROGRESSES, THIS DISEASE IS THE MOST PAINFUL CHRONIC PAIN CONDITION IN THE WORLD. ANYHOW I STARTED THE ENDLESS DR. APPT'S,, TESTS, AND. LOTS OF MEDS.- ABOUT 4-5 MONTHS INTO THAT LIVING HELL, I WAS THEN ADDITIONALLY DIAGNOSED WITH M.S/FIBROMYALGIA/ LUPUS AND MUCH MORE TO COME. ONE THING THAT MY ILLNESSES HAD/HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT THEIR SYMPTOMS ALL MIMMIC ONE ANOTHER.. SINCE THE FIRST DAY WITH M.S I HAVE NEVER GONE INTO REMISSION, IVE ALWAYS RUN A WICKED HIGH FEVER, THAT PAIN WHERE YOU CAN NEVER EXPLAIN IT TO ANYBODY UNLESS THEY'VE BEEN THERE, IVE ALSO HAD THE PAIN SINCE THE ONSET OF C.R.P.S 24/7- I HONOSTLY CANNOT REMEMBER MY LIFE WITHOUT IT. I HAVE SEVERE INVOLUNTARY TREMORS, MUSCLE SPASM'S, BILATERAL FOOT DROP, MUSCLE. WEAKNESS, STABBING/BURNING/THROBBING/ SENSATIONS, TINGLING, NUMBNESS, TOTAL LOSS OF FEELING THRIUGHOUT MY BODY. MEMORY LOSS, LACK OF CONCENTRATION, SOMETIMES I STUTTER, IVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO REMEMBER MY OWN NAME, HOW TO SPELL AS WELL AS THE INABILITY TO MOVE MY HAND TO WRITE.LETS SEE.... UM CLUSTER HEADACHES, CHEST PAIN, TROUBLE SWALLOWING, GRAND MALL SEIZURES, DONT SLEEP FOR 8-11 DAYS/NIGHTS AT A CLIP AND OF COURSE TOTAL EXHAUSTION N FATIGUE. SO AS I SAID IN THE BEGINNING, I SO AGREE WITH UR COMMENTS. WE R ALL DIFFERENT AND WHAT WORKS FOR ONE MAY NOT ANOTHER. ALSO I BELIEVE ITS TRUE THAT ALOT OF US JUST CANNOT AFFORD TO EAT HEALTHY BECAUSE. WE SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD IT. DOCTORS ARE ONLY GUESSING WHEN IT COMES TO OUR TREATMENTS. 26 YRS. INTO THESE ILLNESSES AND IVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT APPROACHES- FOR ME, OPIATES, BENZO'S-FOR THE ANXIETY, MUSCLE RELAXERS, NEURONTIN, MULTI-VITAMINS, AND A WHOLE LOT OF CRYING. I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY BEST. THANK YOU
At accessible Fitness in Santa Clara California we help people with MS and other physical conditions to improve their quality of life by exercise and nutrition
I agree that everyone’s situation is different. I’m glad it worked for him well to walk and to eat fruit and vegetables. But not only everyone can’t afford it, not everyone can walk or can eat fruits without issues. I have Mast cell activation syndrome. I also a genetic problem with connective tissue (hEDS) So I have to be on low histamine diet, many of those fruits can trigger my allergic reactions. Also, my vein compression syndromes has put me into misery with eating. I have a hard time to barely eat 1/3 of a normal size meal without having excruciating pain in my abdomen. So eating fruits and veggies in large quantities aren’t possible for me even to sustain a healthy weight. Healthcare has never been one shoe fits all kind of situation. We are all individual with different genetic makeups.
My first attack was 12 ago. When the doctor told me the diagnosis ,I told him to stop I didn't need to know more I asked can it be healed he said no and I said I know who can . I got on my knees and I cried out loud and put it at Christ feet. I don't think about it I just take charge . The word of God says ask in the name of Jesus Christ and it shall be added .
And to add to the list of Montel's tools he uses against MS is cannabis. I'd highly recommend that those who have MS at least look into cannabis as a treatment. It's really a groundbreaking plant that is incredibly under utilized medicinally.
I totally agree, cannabis aka marijuana is very useful medicinally and it definitely is underused & we all know why that is. I think that it is helpful in symptoms of MS and other diseases. It's already been proven to help cancer symptoms. There is a little boy alive because of a trial involving marijuana, he's in total remission. I'm not saying smoke it and it's a cure for cancer, etc...but it could be...possibly, if it is researched properly, who knows?
I agree but I'm afraid 2 try it. I found out that o had MS at age 27 in 2007. I lost my mind. I didn't no what it was I'm like oh no does my child have as well. I just had the tingling in my lower legs and numbness. One doctor I saw before I went 2 the emergency room just gave me a steriod. I've tried tysabri and it was great. Just hated the fact that I had no immune system. I've done the research and it's only one thing we need from cannibas and that's tch. My sister in law is a doctor so I asked her. But doctors don't ask us if we would like to try it. It's a natural plant. Man added things 2 it and made it more than it needed to be.
RARE GEM Don't be afraid to try it. You don't have to smoke it, so you don't get the stoned feeling. Great muscle relaxant's. Need to watch the edibles. To much, and you will get stoned.
I have every intention of looking into it, once the final results are in. I want edibles, and will be careful about getting stoned. My whole left side is screwed up..very weak, and would like to start running again. But right now, walking is dodgy. And it hurts!!
He lays it down in terms of his circumstances. Having money to buy the right meds and food and seeing the best doctors. Ideally, his testimony is inspiring to those under his circumstances. For those of us whom struggle to work, come up with rent, have to take work days off to go see the doctor, are those who experience MS in it's rarest form; reality and living with it's limitations. I don't even know now what it would be like to not be able to work; as difficult as it is. I am blessed for being able to struggle through.
Montel partially owns a dispensary in Sackotomatoes, CA, which hits triple digit temperatures in the Summer, which obscenely bites for people who have MS. Some decent people transported me to SF, which has more and better dispensaries, and *just* reached its yearly high temps of low 80s. Oh, how I miss what I had and despise what what I now have. =|
Thank you so much Montell. Your interview has enlightened me. I have Multiple Sclerosis I have recently acquired left shoulder weaknesses and right hip weakness. My neck is killing me everyday of every moment. Tones of neuropathic pain.
Diagnosed 4 years ago... went from walking normally, foot started to drag, balance was off, etc. Now I have been in a wheelchair for about 3 months. I exercised almost every day for 3 years... now I cannot stand, so I exercise from my wheelchair. My upper body still works pretty well, and I don't want to lose that. I have ppms, and all the doctors tell me it's only going to get worse. I prefer to listen to my own body. It has gotten worse in my lower body but keeping my upper body strong will help if my lower body improves. I walk with my forearm crutches inside my house every day.
WOW! It is so important to be Educated on MS.He was very honest to let the world know about his condition.Possibly other famous stars has this same condition.(MS)May God heal us all....
I can say thank you Montel for speaking out on MS! I have RRMS and learning on how to deal with this horrible disease. Thank you for giving the advise on how to deal with this painful affliction. I have learned eating more fruits and vegetables it helps you feel better. I have learned the more I move it helps to keep moving no matter how bad it hurts I know to keep going it helps to do better and feel better.
montel .... thanks for empowering me :-) recently my MS has taken my ability to walk and this video has reminded me that just because i cant walk dose not mean that i still cant try to make things a little better day by day
I was diagnosed with MS in November 2017. Only 2 weeks after my wedding. Hospitalized for 4 days. Loss of motor skills on right side of my body. 5 days of steroids helped me get back to baseline. Tried Gilenya for a month and relapsed. 5 more days steroids. 2 months later relapsed again. 5 more days steroid treatment. Same symptoms but recovery slower. MRI showed 5 brain lesions. Switched medicine to Ocrevus in May 2018 after returning to close to baseline. No more relapses so far (Knock on wood) and 2 of my brain lesions have reduced in size or disappeared. Doctors say it's abnormal but I say it's God's plan. I thank him for creating the people that created Ocrevus.
Terrance Hill Thxs for this. I’ve had my first round of Ocrevus and still having symptoms so praying the second one will have me completely back to normal. 🧡💪🏽
Montel, you are amazing. You gave such great knowledge in such a wise manner to help so many others. Wishing you many many more years of good health, pray that you make it to 100yrs old or more. That is the direction you are headed. May God continue to bless you with good health, strong mindset of determination and wisdom.
I’m on the autoimmune protocol diet. It hasn’t helped my MS but I physically just feel so much better. Lighter, less fatigue, energetic… It helps. Everyone’s MS is different though
What i learn about m.s it seem to hit everybody different someway some how. Live with it for 8 years now hasn't been easy. From having blurred vision, to losing feeling throughout my entire body for 4 months. I'm just here reading all the comments to see if anybody else had these exact symptoms as me.
I believe him. He is so motivated. Dr. Terry Whals protocol is similar. She came back from using a tilt in space wheelchair to riding a horse in the mountains through strict diet like he said of 9 cups of veggies and paleo diet and exercise and E-Stim. Wow. Great advice that works for him. Stress reduction with medical marijuana
Thanks Montel. I had been having a pull down in the left side of my face for years. I read on it and thought I had bell palsy. I did not tell my doctor. My so each got mumbled and so i decide to train myself to talk. I was diagnosed 6 months ago and is in treatment. I decided to purchase a juice extractor. I do not like vegetables and fruits but I started.
Yes I walk and sit lol weakness and tired comes but I do a little a time. I move as if there is nothing that changed and is work with Mental Health. I will not stop. Keep going everyone and be strong
I agree with montel on being able to take the time to research your health issues and ask the drs. Problem when u do that, they assume you are looking for meds and drug seeking, looking for things that aren't there and you end up in an insanity ward in a hospital... yes... my diagnosis story....to be declared sane pissed off and in pain.... before I was taken seriously.... so until the professionals came be open to not knowing every answer and are willing to let patients help them help the patient.... doing your own research and actually talking to most drs about it WILL work against you..... very sad state
yeah i have been diagnosed with progressive MS with a pair of tennis balls growing (one at the time of my Hospital visit and diagnosis) in my head and they LOVE being in pair or riddle your spine head or entire body with them too. gotta love that fun stuff eh? the pain is extra fun. I use cannabis like nobodies business. I wear it,eat it,smoke/vape it.coconut oil sunflower lecithin. APA(alpha lipoic acid) PH and magnesium rubs help GREAT!! but its not a fix all but a major way to go though. working out is super tough. eating is hard too but more doable but still tough.and Im not in a wheelchair and can still walk decently too. and if and when that goes? forget about it LOL best of Luck everyone with all your fights and woes. I hope for all of you. Tim
I hear and appreciate what you are both saying. I think his celebrity status has a positive impact on his being too. I believe we can all strip down what he's saying and try to use what's relevant to our situations! Just not everything at once!
This was wonderful video. I was just diagnosed and of course am afraid to move most of the time. I am on information overload and need to organize it all. Thanks Montel for the encouragement regarding exercise. I've been afraid to walk escpecially outside because of the heat. Three weeks in and I now I have a long way to go. I want to be here to see my grandchildren.
I've had MS for 27 years. I totally agree with you that we need to stay away from foods with inflammatory properties. One of those are those containing saturated fats and one of those is coconut. I was surprised to hear you say you make your produce smoothies with coconut milk. I strongly recommend the book "Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis" by George Jelinek. It is an evidence based lifestyle being followed by thousands of us across Canada. Look for it on the web.
I agree with this 100%. not only for pain but if I smoke weed I can walk like I could year ago (I have MS) which is huge for me. Marijuana is medicine.
I was just diagnosed with MS ...I've been walking not knowing why I felt better-my feet hurt-my vision is double-then I was told I had a silent stroke-
Save your book book that a family friend gave me because I hAve been dealing with the same health people’s hust like you I have seen thus video many times before and I think of you and wonder how you are and how you are feeling, S I say every time I see you in TV talking abiut it THANK you fir talking about MS in ecru way possible to inform and educate more people about this illness that changed too many people‘s ‘ lives all around the world. I Sprechstelle you doing this all of the people that Deal with MS every dongle day just like us thank you Angela from northern Italy 🇮🇹
Awesome, incredible advice from a amazing guy! Montel Williams is an inspiration living with his MS...showing us how to keep going on and living well after such a horrible diagnosis. I hope to be as strong in the future!
What he says here is true. You have to find your own anwers and keep inflamation away. I have had MS since the mid 90s and have been off meds for 11 years. I have been leading his protocol longer than he has had MS. This is the answer.
My BIG question for Montel Williams is what type of Multiple Sclerosis he has. This sounds mostly like Relapsing-Remitting MS (RRMS) and is the most common. With the proper medications, diet and exercise can keep the MS at a even level. If an aspiration occurs, the person will not have different or worse symptoms. If a person has Progressive Relapsing MS (PRMS) will worsen as an aspiration happens. It is VERY unlikely Primary Progressive MS (PPMS) is his diagnosis. This is the most rare and aggressive type of MS that even with proper diet and medications the nerves and communication within the brain is on a steady decline. I have yet to hear Montel Williams disclose that to what type of Multiple Sclerosis he has.
I appreciate everything Montel has said , it's easy for people to say get out there walk an do this , but When u r in the progressive stage u lose different parts of mobility,people just don't understand unless they r in the stage we have , I try but the mobility is my problem Thank You Montel you look great:)
Jill Whaley I realized that. Doesn't matter what you eat, how much sun you get, how much exercise you can get or how tough you are, it comes and goes when it pleases.
Eating does actually help.My ms is really progressive which really sucks. I switched to the paleo diet and it did help a lot because there was one week I didn't eat right and I felt horrible. I definitely saw the difference from not eating right to sticking to a healthy diet because of My ms.
Juliann Mladineo What i'm saying is it hasn't been proven scientifically. The paleo diet and all other diets haven't been demonstrated to be scientifically better then anything else. Of course eating a special diet is going to be better then junk food.
+77Avadon77 The right diet makes a HUGE difference. And if you don't use it, you like it, so exercise hugely important as well. He's right about fruits and vegetables.
Thank you Montel! You are my biggest inspiration.I was dyx with MS in 1995, and agree completely with everything you say. I'm no where near as active as you, but I'm still verticle do to basic yoga exercises. I thank God for physical therapists!
My dad has ms and so does my aunt and it is really hard to watch them be sick every second of every day and as a 13 year old I know nothing different. My dad has had it since before I was born and up until I met my friends parents I thought all dads were sick all the time and I thought I was the only one who had to deal with it but then I learned my aunt had it and lots and lots of other people. And I think it is important that more people need to know about ms because my friends still make fun of me to this day saying things like your dad is a fake and it is because they don't know so I think we all should try and get it out there because lots of people still don't know about it
Your friends are sad people. You will be a very caring and compassionate person because of what you have seen and lived with. I bet you are a big help to your dad. Dad's can feel like failures when they get knocked down medically. They desire to be strong for their families and good providers. They want to be their little girls hero.
Thank You. I live with a lung condition which left me with damaged lungs thus short breath and ive been doing exactly what you saying. doing things half and half just aint right. im really gonna take your advice because i live in fear of the effect it will have on me in old age which is around the corner for me as i am 49
Midna, yes, there's no cure. We are stuck with it. So it's all in the things we do to help ease pain, spasms, tremors, balance and exposed nerves, fatigue, weakness, feels like the flu 24/7. Lack of vitamins D and B12 in all MSers.
Ironically, lack of vitamin D and B12 are present in hypothyroid patients. It's amazing the exact symptoms of MS and Hypothroidism: Fatigue, ( that swimming with a coat on feeling ) weakness, feeling like the flu 24/7, balance issues, etc.
There are several components to treating ms at home. One resource I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Denelle multi care (check it out on google) definately the no.1 resource i've seen. look at all the great info .
That may be true. I have no *Factual Statistics* to confirm. On that note ~ The subject matter is not about weather *Sylvia Brown* is a *Fraud*. More likely than not she is but *Montel* is talking about *MS ~ Multiple Sclerosis.* *God Bless*
I haven't seen Montel for about 10 years. I miss him. I remember very well when he interviewed a man that, when as a boy was badly mistreated by his parents and the siblings were afraid to do anything about it. He wrote a book called "a child called it". Very emotional 😃❣️✝️
To those who suffer from MS, have any of you confirmed the existence of viruses within your body (e.g. Herpes HSV1, 2 ,etc.)? HSV-1 and 2 have been implicated as being a root-cause for MS.
marijuana is illegal here and I can't afford to get the medicine, food, or help I need. I can't even afford a doctor. So tell me Montel, what do folks like us do ????
Thanks Montel I m so happy u r doing so well I m currently being tested for ms and i m scared to death of the outcome I appreciate this video it makes me feel stronger in case I do have it i m having trouble with my right leg n I m about to get to the bottom if it whatever god wants for me what is a sure test to find out if you have ms is ut the spinal tap tnx I admire you keep up the fight Donna
montel, please tell me what MS meds help you. I had 3 tysabri infusions and I am in a BAD MS relapse for over 4 months.I got c diff while in hospital for 20 days, never had a relapse while on copaxone. never got better either, afraid to try anything else ever. I would love to walk again and get out of wheelchair, I am 100 percent healthy except for ms. can you offer any advice?
If a drug stops you from having relapses, it's doing its job! The MS drugs aren't for making you better. They are just for hopefully reducing the number of and shortening the length of relapses. So if it totally stops them for you, that's amazing and wonderful!
LYNN JOHNSON.... i understand your position.. I just woke up wrong a year ago and my life has changed drastically. i will pray for you. please stay strong through the pain.
Thankfully there are pills instead of injections. Muscle memory is a great way to rebuild parts of your nerves that have been damaged. Along with diet and exercise. .
I have YET to locate a Doctor who can help..I've done my own research and AM A VETERAN..they keep telling me I'm fine...but private drs have told me I have an auto-immune disorder (pointing towards MS) but without additional testing I can't get help..this ties into sqalene in vaccines...but the VA DONT WANT ME TO PROVE IT! My MOS in the Army was Petroleum Supply in 1985!..my symptoms have gotten worse over the yrs...if ANYONE knows who I can go to for help (an UNBIASED diagnosis) please HELP!
Too bad most people with MS aren't moving as well as Montel. Many of us can barely walk or use one of our hands. If you have progressive MS, like me, then diet and exercise do not stop MS disability progression. That stuff is important in general, so we should do it, but it's not a cure. Nothing repairs our nervous system damage...at least not yet, but maybe soon with two of the new drugs currently being tested
Excuse me? It may not have legal status everywhere, but pot is one of the best muscle relaxers available and has been proven useful in neuropathic pain. THC has neuroprotective qualities and has been patented by the US government. MS is a serious crippling disease and is extremely painful at times. If pot helps to improve the lives of such patients, so be it. If you have MS and chose not to use this type of treatment, that is your choice. But, going around calling people idiots is just NOT COOL.
Montel never talks about drugs, which is so unhelpful. he just talks about diet and vague anecdotal bs. I want to know what drugs he found helpful, what drugs he didn't find helpful, etc.
Has anyone found favorable results for their Secondary Progressive MS Symptoms by using RSO orally? Thinking a hybrid Indica/Sativa Higher THC:CBD ratio. THC for the pain and CBD for the Symptoms? Anyone?
What people don't realize is that he doesn't have the progressive form of MS.. When you do, it is difficult to exercise due to the loss of your ability to walk and to make your body cooperate. His diet & exercise may be a very good suggestion for early RRMS, but when you have lost control over your body from this disease... It's a struggle to be strong enough to even get through each day... I have seen my husband go from a hard working man to a man who struggles to walk, talk, remember things, and even to know if he has to go to the bathroom... I've met people with MS who are going blind, live in a wheelchair, & struggle to get their words out that keep pushing themselves every day... These are the people who should represent the true story of MS... They are the real faces of this disease... & they show the world that even though the adversity, not to give up...
Millie Hobson
I have progressive M.S. and all of the above you have mentioned applys to myself. xx
Yes, Debbie... That is what I am talking about... People who have Progressive forms of MS... Since these forms are rarer forms, they are rarely represented to the public... My husband has PRMS, and has progressed rapidly, even with his medications and, yes, exercise through physical therapy... Despite dietary changes, supplements, exercise, he has progressed to spasms whenever he tries to use the muscles in his legs... So, he is in a temporary wheelchair... Waiting for a permanent fitted wheelchair.... So, now, he can only exercise his legs from his chair... Until they spasm... And his arms... Until the tremors set in..... Keep trying, Debbie... Don't ever give up trying... I just felt like someone who is dealing with these worsening symptoms of Progressive Multiple Sclerosis should let people know that life with this disease is not as easy for everyone.... This disease that people say is a hidden disease... For some, is not hidden at all.....
Thanks so much Millie for your reply, I'm much the same as you husband, I try every day, with me it's not hidden, I use a walking frame at the moment, but feel like I will be in a wheelchair very soon, :( xx
Hey !!!! I don't know how much I can be of help at this point ! I have it to ! Just recently diagnosed with it last year ! Have you looked up LDN ! If not please do
Thank you Keyairra, I will look that up!! Any help is appreciated! 😊💖
I'm just sick of people that don't even have MS going on about how weed is the answer.
Omg YES!!!!
It’s not the answer, but offers several benefits to so many!
I am a Singer Songwriter who suddenly found it difficult to play my guitars. Turns out I have MS and Montel this presentation is a great inspiration for me. Thank you! Tommy Gunn
This is Montels way he does it. Anyone with MS knows there are no two cases alike. Personally, I was told by a doctor after being in a wheelchair for six months, I would never walk again. Instead of just listening to what the doctor said, I got mad, and thought I’ll prove him wrong. After months of hard grueling work, I’m proud to say I walk today. I can relate to some of his symptoms, but I have a lot more pain. With MS, everyday is different, I can go on and on, I was diagnosed at the age of 26, I’m 52 now. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs. The biggest life change I did that did help me was I moved to Florida. I was told years ago by a doctor the vitamin D from the sun might help. He was right, while you need to avoid the heat in the summer, it has paid off for me personally. I was in northern Wisconsin. I’ve thought of making a video to share my experiences, and there have been a lot
Dx in 1996. I agree with everything Montel says. The medics try to tell me I have spasticity coming in and I am transitioning from remitting relapsing to secondary progressive. I’m not taking that, the points of a label is not to serve me, it’s for the medics to categorise!
I have always tried to keep doing everything I want ..... I’ve encountered times when I haven’t been able to walk ..... up I have never opted for a wheelchair. Cause I am determined to keep my legs going ..... I’m with you Montel ..... live each day to the fullest!
You are so right i just told my wife maybe a cane but i am determined never to end up in a wheel chair. I just turned 48 and have had ms in my early 20s😎
I've had MS for 35 years and have never used meds. Like you said, I eat organic fruits and vegetables. I rely heavily on my Vitamix for smoothies. I've been gluten free many years before I was diagnosed. And many years before it was acceptable. Fortunately, my doctors are on board and just say carry on, you're doing well. It's not a cure and I live in the UK, so I get very little sun.
I was educating myself long before I knew what was wrong. I've found that being knowledgable and proactive means having a better relationship with my doctors.
man-made disease modifying medications are a no-go. I don't take them either. fruits and vegetables all the way
How are you doing now
How are you doing? What diet are you following?
I have been living with MS since '96 when I was only 19 years old. I am in my 40's now and yeah of course my MS has progressed but I still am surviving. My doctor and neurologist tell me to continue maintaining my lifestyle.
@cool black How are you doing now?
Yes 🙌 you are here me too No complaints I’m Thankful 🥹 Blessings Brother 😌
I applaud everything that Montel is doing and saying. I have much respect for him and think that he is doing the right things. The only problem in some peoples lives is that they can't eat healthy because they can't afford it and some ppl are on disability and are lucky to be eating 'something', even with food stamps, because they don't get enough money on disability. I wish that there was something set up where ppl that had MS, Cancer, Rheumatoid Arthritis, autoimmune diseases,etc...could get healthy food so they could fight the diseases head on like Montel is. Some people eat Ramen every week just to get by and that's not healthy. One of the main problems is that healthy foods are too expensive and the unhealthy foods are cheap. Something should be done so that eating healthy is possible for everyone, even the poor. But back to MS...everything Montel is saying is right & make sure you don't over do it and take your meds. I think everyone needs to be on one of the MS drugs whether it's Avonex, Rebif, Copaxone, Betaseron, or whatever your doctor puts you on because the sooner your on one of them the sooner your disease slows (for most). What it boils down to is... 'take care of yourself' however you can because you only have this one life.
SLaRee333. HAVE TO WRITE IN CAPS AS IAM LEGALLY BLIND. WITH THAT SAID I AGREE WITH WHAT UR SAYING ABOUT THIS HORRIFIC DISEASE.. AT AGE 26 I BROKE MY LEFT FOOT VERY BADLY IN 5 PLACES, I KNEW VERY QUICKLY THAT SOMETHING WAS REALLY WRONG. APPROX. 1 YR. LATER I WENT TO AN ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON WHO KNEW IMMEDIATELY THAT I HAD (C.R.P.S) COMPLEX REGIONAL PAIN SYNDROME) A SEVERE NERVE DAMAGING DISEASE THAT SPREADS KILLING OFF BODY PARTS AS IT PROGRESSES, THIS DISEASE IS THE MOST PAINFUL CHRONIC PAIN CONDITION IN THE WORLD. ANYHOW I STARTED THE ENDLESS DR. APPT'S,, TESTS, AND. LOTS OF MEDS.- ABOUT 4-5 MONTHS INTO THAT LIVING HELL, I WAS THEN ADDITIONALLY DIAGNOSED WITH M.S/FIBROMYALGIA/ LUPUS AND MUCH MORE TO COME. ONE THING THAT MY ILLNESSES HAD/HAVE IN COMMON IS THAT THEIR SYMPTOMS ALL MIMMIC ONE ANOTHER.. SINCE THE FIRST DAY WITH M.S I HAVE NEVER GONE INTO REMISSION, IVE ALWAYS RUN A WICKED HIGH FEVER, THAT PAIN WHERE YOU CAN NEVER EXPLAIN IT TO ANYBODY UNLESS THEY'VE BEEN THERE, IVE ALSO HAD THE PAIN SINCE THE ONSET OF C.R.P.S 24/7- I HONOSTLY CANNOT REMEMBER MY LIFE WITHOUT IT. I HAVE SEVERE INVOLUNTARY TREMORS, MUSCLE SPASM'S, BILATERAL FOOT DROP, MUSCLE. WEAKNESS, STABBING/BURNING/THROBBING/ SENSATIONS, TINGLING, NUMBNESS, TOTAL LOSS OF FEELING THRIUGHOUT MY BODY. MEMORY LOSS, LACK OF CONCENTRATION, SOMETIMES I STUTTER, IVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO REMEMBER MY OWN NAME, HOW TO SPELL AS WELL AS THE INABILITY TO MOVE MY HAND TO WRITE.LETS SEE.... UM CLUSTER HEADACHES, CHEST PAIN, TROUBLE SWALLOWING, GRAND MALL SEIZURES, DONT SLEEP FOR 8-11 DAYS/NIGHTS AT A CLIP AND OF COURSE TOTAL EXHAUSTION N FATIGUE. SO AS I SAID IN THE BEGINNING, I SO AGREE WITH UR COMMENTS. WE R ALL DIFFERENT AND WHAT WORKS FOR ONE MAY NOT ANOTHER. ALSO I BELIEVE ITS TRUE THAT ALOT OF US JUST CANNOT AFFORD TO EAT HEALTHY BECAUSE. WE SIMPLY CANNOT AFFORD IT. DOCTORS ARE ONLY GUESSING WHEN IT COMES TO OUR TREATMENTS. 26 YRS. INTO THESE ILLNESSES AND IVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT APPROACHES- FOR ME, OPIATES, BENZO'S-FOR THE ANXIETY, MUSCLE RELAXERS, NEURONTIN, MULTI-VITAMINS, AND A WHOLE LOT OF CRYING. I WISH YOU ALL THE VERY BEST. THANK YOU

There are food pantries and churches that give veggies. A cucumber, a bag of carrots and celery are very cheap. You start somewhere.
I agree that everyone’s situation is different. I’m glad it worked for him well to walk and to eat fruit and vegetables. But not only everyone can’t afford it, not everyone can walk or can eat fruits without issues. I have Mast cell activation syndrome. I also a genetic problem with connective tissue (hEDS) So I have to be on low histamine diet, many of those fruits can trigger my allergic reactions. Also, my vein compression syndromes has put me into misery with eating. I have a hard time to barely eat 1/3 of a normal size meal without having excruciating pain in my abdomen. So eating fruits and veggies in large quantities aren’t possible for me even to sustain a healthy weight. Healthcare has never been one shoe fits all kind of situation. We are all individual with different genetic makeups.
My first attack was 12 ago.
When the doctor told me the diagnosis ,I told him to stop I didn't need to know more I asked can it be healed he said no and I said I know who can .
I got on my knees and I cried out loud and put it at Christ feet.
I don't think about it I just take charge .
The word of God says ask in the name of Jesus Christ and it shall be added .
And to add to the list of Montel's tools he uses against MS is cannabis. I'd highly recommend that those who have MS at least look into cannabis as a treatment. It's really a groundbreaking plant that is incredibly under utilized medicinally.
I totally agree, cannabis aka marijuana is very useful medicinally and it definitely is underused & we all know why that is. I think that it is helpful in symptoms of MS and other diseases. It's already been proven to help cancer symptoms. There is a little boy alive because of a trial involving marijuana, he's in total remission. I'm not saying smoke it and it's a cure for cancer, etc...but it could be...possibly, if it is researched properly, who knows?
I agree but I'm afraid 2 try it. I found out that o had MS at age 27 in 2007. I lost my mind. I didn't no what it was I'm like oh no does my child have as well. I just had the tingling in my lower legs and numbness. One doctor I saw before I went 2 the emergency room just gave me a steriod. I've tried tysabri and it was great. Just hated the fact that I had no immune system. I've done the research and it's only one thing we need from cannibas and that's tch. My sister in law is a doctor so I asked her. But doctors don't ask us if we would like to try it. It's a natural plant. Man added things 2 it and made it more than it needed to be.
RARE GEM Don't be afraid to try it. You don't have to smoke it, so you don't get the stoned feeling. Great muscle relaxant's. Need to watch the edibles. To much, and you will get stoned.
I have every intention of looking into it, once the final results are in. I want edibles, and will be careful about getting stoned. My whole left side is screwed up..very weak, and would like to start running again. But right now, walking is dodgy. And it hurts!!
I'm using. I live in CO. I use a lot of the CBN's and such. Much better than pain pills.
He lays it down in terms of his circumstances. Having money to buy the right meds and food and seeing the best doctors. Ideally, his testimony is inspiring to those under his circumstances. For those of us whom struggle to work, come up with rent, have to take work days off to go see the doctor, are those who experience MS in it's rarest form; reality and living with it's limitations. I don't even know now what it would be like to not be able to work; as difficult as it is. I am blessed for being able to struggle through.
Rawest form. Stupid autocorrect. LOL.
Oh my goodness everything you say I can relate to. Your life, your choices. You decide what happens to you. Positive thinking & positive eating! 💕
Medical Cannabis seriously helped my Primary Progressive MS feel bearable. I need to move (back) to a state that supports it.
Montel partially owns a dispensary in Sackotomatoes, CA, which hits triple digit temperatures in the Summer, which obscenely bites for people who have MS. Some decent people transported me to SF, which has more and better dispensaries, and *just* reached its yearly high temps of low 80s.
Oh, how I miss what I had and despise what what I now have. =|
Thank you so much Montell. Your interview has enlightened me. I have Multiple Sclerosis I have recently acquired left shoulder weaknesses and right hip weakness.
My neck is killing me everyday of every moment. Tones of neuropathic pain.
Watching & Listening To Montel A Long Time Like His Talks On MS
Diagnosed 4 years ago... went from walking normally, foot started to drag, balance was off, etc. Now I have been in a wheelchair for about 3 months. I exercised almost every day for 3 years... now I cannot stand, so I exercise from my wheelchair. My upper body still works pretty well, and I don't want to lose that. I have ppms, and all the doctors tell me it's only going to get worse. I prefer to listen to my own body. It has gotten worse in my lower body but keeping my upper body strong will help if my lower body improves. I walk with my forearm crutches inside my house every day.
You are doing great, press forward. ❤️
Swimming and collagen has done wonders for me, MS since 2008
Thank you Montel. You are so encouraging! I appreciate you for caring for all of us.
Wow - that was an incredibly empowering message. Thank you, Montel and God Bless.
WOW! It is so important to be Educated on MS.He was very honest to let the world know about his condition.Possibly other famous stars has this same condition.(MS)May God heal us all....
I can say thank you Montel for speaking out on MS! I have RRMS and learning on how to deal with this horrible disease. Thank you for giving the advise on how to deal with this painful affliction. I have learned eating more fruits and vegetables it helps you feel better. I have learned the more I move it helps to keep moving no matter how bad it hurts I know to keep going it helps to do better and feel better.
montel .... thanks for empowering me :-) recently my MS has taken my ability to walk and this video has reminded me that just because i cant walk dose not mean that i still cant try to make things a little better day by day
I realize this was 7 years ago, but thank you for sharing this. I feel lower and lower every day and am struggling to hold on to this life.
I was diagnosed with MS in November 2017. Only 2 weeks after my wedding. Hospitalized for 4 days. Loss of motor skills on right side of my body. 5 days of steroids helped me get back to baseline. Tried Gilenya for a month and relapsed. 5 more days steroids. 2 months later relapsed again. 5 more days steroid treatment. Same symptoms but recovery slower. MRI showed 5 brain lesions. Switched medicine to Ocrevus in May 2018 after returning to close to baseline. No more relapses so far (Knock on wood) and 2 of my brain lesions have reduced in size or disappeared. Doctors say it's abnormal but I say it's God's plan. I thank him for creating the people that created Ocrevus.
Terrance Hill Thxs for this. I’ve had my first round of Ocrevus and still having symptoms so praying the second one will have me completely back to normal. 🧡💪🏽
Much Love And Respect To Montel NEVER Give Up
Montel, you are amazing. You gave such great knowledge in such a wise manner to help so many others. Wishing you many many more years of good health, pray that you make it to 100yrs old or more. That is the direction you are headed. May God continue to bless you with good health, strong mindset of determination and wisdom.
Don’t let doing what you can’t do stop you from doing what you can
I’m on the autoimmune protocol diet. It hasn’t helped my MS but I physically just feel so much better. Lighter, less fatigue, energetic… It helps. Everyone’s MS is different though
What i learn about m.s it seem to hit everybody different someway some how. Live with it for 8 years now hasn't been easy. From having blurred vision, to losing feeling throughout my entire body for 4 months. I'm just here reading all the comments to see if anybody else had these exact symptoms as me.
I believe him. He is so motivated. Dr. Terry Whals protocol is similar. She came back from using a tilt in space wheelchair to riding a horse in the mountains through strict diet like he said of 9 cups of veggies and paleo diet and exercise and E-Stim. Wow. Great advice that works for him. Stress reduction with medical marijuana
Montel, I have always watched you and admired your work. I was diagnosed with MS in 2013, I agree with your advice.
We got to keep fighting MS. Who I was deserves nothing less.
amazing and outstanding !!!Mr. Montel
I appreciate your MS Activism. Thank-you!
Montel, thank you for sharing your story. Hearing your experience has made me a bit more hopeful! Best wishes...
Thanks Montel. I had been having a pull down in the left side of my face for years. I read on it and thought I had bell palsy. I did not tell my doctor. My so each got mumbled and so i decide to train myself to talk. I was diagnosed 6 months ago and is in treatment. I decided to purchase a juice extractor. I do not like vegetables and fruits but I started.
Yes I walk and sit lol weakness and tired comes but I do a little a time. I move as if there is nothing that changed and is work with Mental Health. I will not stop. Keep going everyone and be strong
Thank you for all of what you have done and shared. We are still learning from you.
Attitude of gratitude so many times I want to blame it on my MS and it's normal it feels awesome!!
I agree with montel on being able to take the time to research your health issues and ask the drs. Problem when u do that, they assume you are looking for meds and drug seeking, looking for things that aren't there and you end up in an insanity ward in a hospital... yes... my diagnosis story....to be declared sane pissed off and in pain.... before I was taken seriously.... so until the professionals came be open to not knowing every answer and are willing to let patients help them help the patient.... doing your own research and actually talking to most drs about it WILL work against you..... very sad state
yeah i have been diagnosed with progressive MS with a pair of tennis balls growing (one at the time of my Hospital visit and diagnosis) in my head and they LOVE being in pair or riddle your spine head or entire body with them too. gotta love that fun stuff eh? the pain is extra fun. I use cannabis like nobodies business. I wear it,eat it,smoke/vape it.coconut oil sunflower lecithin. APA(alpha lipoic acid) PH and magnesium rubs help GREAT!! but its not a fix all but a major way to go though.
working out is super tough. eating is hard too but more doable but still tough.and Im not in a wheelchair and can still walk decently too. and if and when that goes? forget about it LOL best of Luck everyone with all your fights and woes. I hope for all of you.
Tim
Thank you for talking about MS.
I hear and appreciate what you are both saying. I think his celebrity status has a positive impact on his being too.
I believe we can all strip down what he's saying and try to use what's relevant to our situations! Just not everything at once!
I AM ON COPAXONE, LIKE YOURSELF, MR MONTEL WILLIAMS, YOUR MY HERO, IN THE M.S FIGHT!
This was wonderful video. I was just diagnosed and of course am afraid to move most of the time. I am on information overload and need to organize it all.
Thanks Montel for the encouragement regarding exercise. I've been afraid to walk escpecially outside because of the heat. Three weeks in and I now I have a long way to go. I want to be here to see my grandchildren.
Wow.... I Montel is so right.
I try to eat as much fruits as I can I was diagnosed with ms on August 28th 1998
and I totally agree with what Montel says
How are you doing now, Sharon?
I've had MS for 27 years. I totally agree with you that we need to stay away from foods with inflammatory properties. One of those are those containing saturated fats and one of those is coconut. I was surprised to hear you say you make your produce smoothies with coconut milk. I strongly recommend the book "Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis" by George Jelinek. It is an evidence based lifestyle being followed by thousands of us across Canada. Look for it on the web.
He said coconut water, not milk
I agree with this 100%. not only for pain but if I smoke weed I can walk like I could year ago (I have MS) which is huge for me. Marijuana is medicine.
Thank you Montel! I'm not accepting it either!!
+Thalia Ventouris me either #fums
I was just diagnosed with MS ...I've been walking not knowing why I felt better-my feet hurt-my vision is double-then I was told I had a silent stroke-
very self calming and u give people hope such a great incredible person
Save your book book that a family friend gave me because I hAve been dealing with the same health people’s hust like you I have seen thus video many times before and I think of you and wonder how you are and how you are feeling, S I say every time I see you in TV talking abiut it THANK you fir talking about MS in ecru way possible to inform and educate more people about this illness that changed too many people‘s ‘ lives all around the world. I Sprechstelle you doing this all of the people that Deal with
MS every dongle day just like us thank you Angela from northern Italy 🇮🇹
Thank you so much Montel ! I am gonna kick ass
Awesome, incredible advice from a amazing guy! Montel Williams is an inspiration living with his MS...showing us how to keep going on and living well after such a horrible diagnosis. I hope to be as strong in the future!
What he says here is true. You have to find your own anwers and keep inflamation away. I have had MS since the mid 90s and have been off meds for 11 years. I have been leading his protocol longer than he has had MS. This is the answer.
how are you doing?
Thank you Montel I to have MS and feel the same way.
have you tried black seed oil for healing purposes
Goodness. I love Montel.
My BIG question for Montel Williams is what type of Multiple Sclerosis he has. This sounds mostly like Relapsing-Remitting MS (RRMS) and is the most common. With the proper medications, diet and exercise can keep the MS at a even level. If an aspiration occurs, the person will not have different or worse symptoms. If a person has Progressive Relapsing MS (PRMS) will worsen as an aspiration happens. It is VERY unlikely Primary Progressive MS (PPMS) is his diagnosis. This is the most rare and aggressive type of MS that even with proper diet and medications the nerves and communication within the brain is on a steady decline. I have yet to hear Montel Williams disclose that to what type of Multiple Sclerosis he has.
I believe I heard somewhere that he has RRMS.
I appreciate everything Montel has said , it's easy for people to say get out there walk an do this , but When u r in the progressive stage u lose different parts of mobility,people just don't understand unless they r in the stage we have , I try but the mobility is my problem Thank You Montel you look great:)
MS doesn't work like this. There's no rules to it. It doesn't play fair.
Jill Whaley I realized that. Doesn't matter what you eat, how much sun you get, how much exercise you can get or how tough you are, it comes and goes when it pleases.
Eating does actually help.My ms is really progressive which really sucks. I switched to the paleo diet and it did help a lot because there was one week I didn't eat right and I felt horrible. I definitely saw the difference from not eating right to sticking to a healthy diet because of My ms.
Juliann Mladineo
What i'm saying is it hasn't been proven scientifically. The paleo diet and all other diets haven't been demonstrated to be scientifically better then anything else. Of course eating a special diet is going to be better then junk food.
+Harden Thicke what medication does he take?
+77Avadon77 The right diet makes a HUGE difference. And if you don't use it, you like it, so exercise hugely important as well. He's right about fruits and vegetables.
Thank you Montel! You are my biggest inspiration.I was dyx with MS in 1995, and agree completely with everything you say. I'm no where near as active as you, but I'm still verticle do to basic yoga exercises. I thank God for physical therapists!
My dad has ms and so does my aunt and it is really hard to watch them be sick every second of every day and as a 13 year old I know nothing different. My dad has had it since before I was born and up until I met my friends parents I thought all dads were sick all the time and I thought I was the only one who had to deal with it but then I learned my aunt had it and lots and lots of other people. And I think it is important that more people need to know about ms because my friends still make fun of me to this day saying things like your dad is a fake and it is because they don't know so I think we all should try and get it out there because lots of people still don't know about it
Your friends are sad people. You will be a very caring and compassionate person because of what you have seen and lived with. I bet you are a big help to your dad. Dad's can feel like failures when they get knocked down medically. They desire to be strong for their families and good providers. They want to be their little girls hero.
Thank you for your kind words it really helps I have removed myself from that situation and it has gotten better
I am happy to hear that you are doing better. It is a long and difficult and challenging road.
Thank you for sharing
His medication isn't doing much for him...it's the diet, exercise, physical therapy, and supplements that are doing him good.
true
HOPE PEOPLE SEE THIS
treatment for neuropathic pain = Weed
spread the word...
YEP!!
Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank You. I live with a lung condition which left me with damaged lungs thus short breath and ive been doing exactly what you saying. doing things half and half just aint right. im really gonna take your advice because i live in fear of the effect it will have on me in old age which is around the corner for me as i am 49
I have that crazy leg thing. Sometime when I move my right leg goes off 2 the side or jams up all 2gether 2 where I can't move it at all
Midna, yes, there's no cure. We are stuck with it. So it's all in the things we do to help ease pain, spasms, tremors, balance and exposed nerves, fatigue, weakness, feels like the flu 24/7. Lack of vitamins D and B12 in all MSers.
Ironically, lack of vitamin D and B12 are present in hypothyroid patients. It's amazing the exact symptoms of MS and Hypothroidism: Fatigue, ( that swimming with a coat on feeling ) weakness, feeling like the flu 24/7, balance issues, etc.
I dont have lack of vitamin d or b12, and has ms
Well said Montel.
I just became a Montel fan.
Awesome video!!!!!!!
There are several components to treating ms at home. One resource I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Denelle multi care (check it out on google) definately the no.1 resource i've seen. look at all the great info .
His best advice is go online & check out alternative ways to affect your health prob...It has helped me fight my MS
MONTEL IS THE BEST ADVOCATE FOR MS VICTIMS ON EARTH! Fantastic, honest, dedicated gentleman!
He promoted Sylvia Browne, that is why he is a fraud,
John Bodnar
Ya know John this has nothing to do with *Sylvia Brown*. Wise Up and stop being a PINHEAD!!!!!!!!
Celeste Dommer All psychics are frauds if they take money.
That may be true. I have no *Factual Statistics* to confirm. On that note ~ The subject matter is not about weather *Sylvia Brown* is a *Fraud*. More likely than not she is but *Montel* is talking about *MS ~ Multiple Sclerosis.*
*God Bless*
RoseHe promoted that fraud for years , that is why he lost all credibility.People lost thousands on Sylvia.Thank God Anderson Cooper called he out.
i was recently diagnoised with ms 1 yr ago and am going to begin with avonex? any input from others on this weekly injection?
I really do not believe the meds are that effective. I've had MS since 1996 & I've been on most of them.
I haven't seen Montel for about 10 years. I miss him. I remember very well when he interviewed a man that, when as a boy was badly mistreated by his parents and the siblings were afraid to do anything about it. He wrote a book called "a child called it". Very emotional 😃❣️✝️
To what extent has reducing Oxidative Stress using Nrf2 Activation has been a help to Montel and other suffers?
thank you for this great video☺
Water is the best of 'easy' resistance!
Amazing!!!! I looooove this video!! :)
WOW HAS HIS MESSAGE CHANGED FAST FOWARD
Love This Guy!
To those who suffer from MS, have any of you confirmed the existence of viruses within your body (e.g. Herpes HSV1, 2 ,etc.)? HSV-1 and 2 have been implicated as being a root-cause for MS.
Blessings 😍
marijuana is illegal here and I can't afford to get the medicine, food, or help I need. I can't even afford a doctor. So tell me Montel, what do folks like us do ????
Thanks Montel I m so happy u r doing so well I m currently being tested for ms and i m scared to death of the outcome I appreciate this video it makes me feel stronger in case I do have it i m having trouble with my right leg n I m about to get to the bottom if it whatever god wants for me what is a sure test to find out if you have ms is ut the spinal tap tnx I admire you keep up the fight
Donna
wow, he is one awesome dude
montel, please tell me what MS meds help you. I had 3 tysabri infusions and I am in a BAD MS relapse for over 4 months.I got c diff while in hospital for 20 days, never had a relapse while on copaxone. never got better either, afraid to try anything else ever. I would love to walk again and get out of wheelchair, I am 100 percent healthy except for ms. can you offer any advice?
Copaxone is the only daily injection for MS.
Copaxone is the only drug old enough for his story.
If a drug stops you from having relapses, it's doing its job! The MS drugs aren't for making you better. They are just for hopefully reducing the number of and shortening the length of relapses. So if it totally stops them for you, that's amazing and wonderful!
LYNN JOHNSON.... i understand your position.. I just woke up wrong a year ago and my life has changed drastically. i will pray for you. please stay strong through the pain.
LYNN JOHNSON look into HSCT for MS patients in Chicago.
Wonderful. Thank you.
Thankfully there are pills instead of injections. Muscle memory is a great way to rebuild parts of your nerves that have been damaged. Along with diet and exercise. .
I have YET to locate a Doctor who can help..I've done my own research and AM A VETERAN..they keep telling me I'm fine...but private drs have told me I have an auto-immune disorder (pointing towards MS) but without additional testing I can't get help..this ties into sqalene in vaccines...but the VA DONT WANT ME TO PROVE IT! My MOS in the Army was Petroleum Supply in 1985!..my symptoms have gotten worse over the yrs...if ANYONE knows who I can go to for help (an UNBIASED diagnosis) please HELP!
Too bad most people with MS aren't moving as well as Montel. Many of us can barely walk or use one of our hands. If you have progressive MS, like me, then diet and exercise do not stop MS disability progression. That stuff is important in general, so we should do it, but it's not a cure. Nothing repairs our nervous system damage...at least not yet, but maybe soon with two of the new drugs currently being tested
Mr Montel I have MS I am studying how to beat this MS I am plantbased Raw foods My Neurologist put me on Mavenclad
Excuse me? It may not have legal status everywhere, but pot is one of the best muscle relaxers available and has been proven useful in neuropathic pain. THC has neuroprotective qualities and has been patented by the US government. MS is a serious crippling disease and is extremely painful at times. If pot helps to improve the lives of such patients, so be it. If you have MS and chose not to use this type of treatment, that is your choice. But, going around calling people idiots is just NOT COOL.
Montel never talks about drugs, which is so unhelpful. he just talks about diet and vague anecdotal bs. I want to know what drugs he found helpful, what drugs he didn't find helpful, etc.
Has anyone found favorable results for their Secondary Progressive MS Symptoms by using RSO orally? Thinking a hybrid Indica/Sativa Higher THC:CBD ratio. THC for the pain and CBD for the Symptoms? Anyone?
