Episode 54: MS & Wellness -- A Paradigm Shift with Dr. Aaron Boster

The RealTalk MS podcast is celebrating its one-year anniversary this week! And to kick off our 2nd year, I'm launching the RealTalk MS app! You can download the iOS version of the app from the Apple App Store, and you can download the Android version from the Google Play Store. The app is free, and it's the very best (and easiest!) way for you to connect to the podcast. And the RealTalk MS app will allow me to share free bonus content with you. So in the weeks and months ahead, I'll be sharing video content, written content...the app give us more ways to connect over meaningful content that I think you'll want to know about.

My guest on this week's podcast is Dr. Aaron Boster, the system Medical Chief for Neuroimmunology at OhioHealth, and we're going to be talking about a really exciting wellness initiative that OhioHealth is undertaking for people living with MS and other neurological conditions. We'll also be discussing how and why OhioHealth finds itself leading the rest of the world when it comes to innovative treatment initiatives for people living with MS.

We're also talking about the Phase 3 clinical trial that's getting underway to study the effect of simvastatin on people with secondary progressive MS, a 4-year research study on a new method for treating cognitive dysfunction in people with progressive MS, and we'll look at the surprising results of a survey about quality of life and well-being among people living with MS.

We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS?
