Thanks for watching Carl. Yes. I have seen some anecdotal reports of this too. I have looked for research on the carnivore diet but there is very little evidence for it where there is a a wealth of long term, peer reviewed, well respected research showing that a more plant based low saturated fat diet is beneficial. That said, I am continuing to watch the data. It is possible that people are responding well because they are moving away from the standard American or western diet and removing a lot of highly processed and toxic foods or food-like products.
@@EvenSoItIsWellThanks for your nice response. I don't know what to think. So far, I do know that I don't feel at all well on ketovore animal based diet whenever I try it. However, it seems like everyone else testifying about carnivore feels AMAZING! I don't get it. 🤷♀
I encourage you to follow the science and look to those that are having long term success with diet and lifestyle changes. Those that are feeling amazing my be experiencing a short term effect of removing highly inflammatory foods from their diets.
Thank you for sharing your story of how you manage MS. I stopped and thought about why I got MS, I read about Dr Roy Swank, I read The China Study, and talked with a vegan friend. I have been a whole food Plant-based diet for 10-years, Most of my symptoms have gone into remission.
Thanks for watching and sharing your fantastic news. It is amazing how our bodies respond to good nutrition isn’t it? The China Study is on my bookshelf too! It is a great one!
Great video. I do not have MS, but one of my best friends does, so there's the interest. I also follow your path of whole foods plant based diet, exercise and proper sleep. It's simply the healthiest way to live! @ 9.4 minutes you mentioned a book by Matthew Walker. He has a Master Class on sleep which is fascinating. Wouldn't it be wonderful if we all educated our children to be healthy following these principles instead of waiting for "something to go wrong" with us?
Thanks Steve! I really like Matthew Walker and you are so right, it would be so great to have better education when children are younger to help prevent some of the health issues that are the result of diet and lifestyle choices.
You are such an amazing individual, my friend ❣️I couldn't agree and relate more with mostly everything you said... Other than me being consumed with fear and not wanting to do any research the first few years of my diagnosis....Which now I know was a huge mistake I made.🤦♀️ but you are so right if i could re do that part i would definitely not allow fear to consume me although who knows my 19 year old uneducated self may have done the very same thing lol...I will definitely look into that sleep read thanks for sharing all of these amazing tips ❤ ooh and I'm reading this sleep read now ❣️
You sweet thing. Thank you! I am so lucky to count you as a friend too! Don’t be too hard on your nineteen year old self. She was doing the best she could. 🥰
Helllo! Milica here,MS is in my life 20 years.... I call it MS. It's enough that we already have it,ther's no need for full pronancination 😊 It's practically same for me... Thank you for video 🙂
Thank you for sharing my daughter was diagnosed two years ago now we are looking for ways to help her she is a big tennis player so fitness was good but had suffered during covid . She is looking at diet very closely now and she has managed to get back to a good standard of life she is doing a pt course to find out how to look after her body . She has had chemotherapy twice to reset her immune system in March we should find out how or if it has worked she believes diet and exercise are so important , tiredness is her biggest problem hoping it will get better . She has experienced fear and sadness the same as you and she is trying so hard to try and fight it and live a good life.
Thank you for sharing your story. I had a relapse in June last year, haven't improved much😢. I have noticed that I have become very forgetful. I don't have access to proper MS care since I live in a remote area. My cognitive skills are declining too. Can you please suggest any possible solutions for this? Can you please post a video about forgetfulness and decline in other cognitive skills? Keep up the good work ❤
Thanks for watching! I am sorry you are struggling with cognition and forgetfulness. I am actually releasing a video tomorrow on brain health and habits we can improve to help our brains. Being in a location that does not have proper medical care is challenging and even more incentive to take exquisite care of yourself. Please try to eat the most nutritious foods you can find, exercise as you are able, try to get good sleep, and practice mindfulness and meditation. All of these will help to improve health and wellbeing. They will also help with managing symptoms.
Thanks! Living with a condition that has no cure is not easy but there are things we can do help manage our symptoms and to try and live well with it! 🙂
Hi Demetrius. Thanks for watching. Yes, I get tightness in.my left leg. It is primarily in my thigh and quadricep though. I do have sensation loss in my foot too that intensifies with exercise and the bottom of my foot can get a blister like feel too. After I stop exercising it settles back down to my baseline. I do take the muscle relaxer baclofen at night to help with the leg tightness.
Thank you for the video. I was diagnosed this past February. I was wondering if you've come across any info specifically related to diet sodas and MS. I currently drink a lot of Diet Coke and hear mixed opinions on whether it's *that* bad in general and especially for nerve health. I get the feeling I should stop drinking it, but I don't really want to if I don't have to.
Thanks for watching. Your feeling to stop drinking diet sodas are spot on. Artificial sweeteners like aspartame are linked to a number of potential problems including mood disorders, mental stress, and depression which are also linked to MS. There is also concerns that it may increase cancer risk (although more studies are needed.) It basically is an anti-nutrient that does things in our bodies that we are not sure of. For instance it breaks down, in part, to formaldehyde. 😲 It is best to only consume whole real foods if we can. To see more you can check out this study. Skip down to the conclusions. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8227014/
well I tried to send a pic of the book but not sure why I'm having trouble with that lol... The books name is Nightmares, Neuroscience and the Seceret World of sleep THE NOCTURNAL BRAIN by Guy Leschziner!
Hi, I would like to have Thank you for your information. I have a question. which medication are you using for MS? How many years you have MS. Thank you
Thanks for watching. I am currently on the generic of Copaxone and I take baclofen for spasms. I have been on Copaxone or the generic since diagnosis in 2017. I was not diagnosed after my first relapse in 2006, so I went 11 years with no drug treatment. I did make changes to my diet and lifestyle that did help I think. I remain open to trying other medications in the future if needed.
@@EvenSoItIsWell Thank you for your reply. I have 2 relapses and from 2019 to 2023 2 more lesions. I have mild systems and sometimes during night I have burning. still I did not take any medication .but now they said I have to take B cells or cladrine treatment . I am going to say that these medication are so strong. I changed my diet since I listen to you and other advisers and became very well. Thank you
@@EvenSoItIsWell Hi , hope you are keeping well. I watched your dairy diet . for mix fruit which grain flaxseed you add? there are different types of grain flaxseed . Many thanks for your help. 😍
@@shahlaZafari there are golden and brown flaxseed. Both are good but the golden ones have a bit less Omega 3s. I buy mine whole and grind them in small batches to keep them fresh.
@@EvenSoItIsWell Hi,I hope you are keeping well. I would apricate if you can release the picture of grain flaxseed which are using. there are many types and I do not know which one? the organic maybe is better but which one. As I understand the eggs is not good for us to eat. some of flaxseed have the same protein of eggs. Thankyou for your help😍
I am crying as I felt my story but without direction- in todays society too much info can be overwhelming. Then I have my faith that says I should pray and be healed, then I have my kids they are young- then I have a husband that loves us but doesn’t understand- I wish I had a support system, a naturopath, friends… I wish I had compassion towards myself - is a cycle everyday - then menopause the topping on this cake!! But I thank you for being honest and for researching- I used to be a RN- sharp and fast - now I don’t work on disability- not physically but anxiety which meds have me numb - I thank you for your videos. I will look at the storefront. I did Swank I may look at it again. I need a med to help- Copaxone was painful and the pain reminded me more of MS than my symptoms- ❤
WE can only get back to life the same way we climb any mountain. One step at a time. Moving forward does not have to be at lightening speed. Every little step forward is progress.
@@ValentinaGidei-it1vt yes! I have two children. Try not to worry too much, the risk is small for them. They do recommend that they get adequate vitamin D to help.
Get to the point faster. What did you change? How did you change? How fast did you change? What help what didn’t help Talk faster get to the point faster and help folks
This video is more of story telling than many of my other videos. I purposely made it this way to share my journey. Please see my other videos for more data and research based advice on changes to help with MS and chronic illness symptoms.
Yepp! My diet was the first thing I looked at. But the best change I made was my sleep. I went from working shift which meant my sleeping was awful. I came off shift when I had my first relapse and it’s the best thing I did for my body 🫶🏻 thanks for sharing 🩷

So many people are reporting MS remission on carnivore/keto diets. If you're not confused, then you may not have been paying attention.
