Episode 146: An Integrative Medicine Approach to Treating MS with Dr. Allen Bowling

Integrative medicine combines evidence-based alternative medicine with conventional medicine. My guest is Dr. Allen Bowling, an internationally renowned neurologist who specializes in integrative medicine for MS. When it comes to care and treatment for MS, Dr. Bowling has published over 100 articles in clinical and basic science journals. He's been involved in research related to nutrition, dietary supplements, and other non-pharmacologic therapies for the past 30 years. And our conversation covers CBD and other cannabis products as potential treatments for MS symptoms, we'll talk about diet and exercise, over the counter supplements, maintaining your emotional health, and lots more. An international committee of distinguished experts has just issued an important clarification in the terminology used to describe the status of a person with MS (including "active" secondary progressive, "worsening", and "progression"). We'll tell you all about this clarification and explain how it affects everything from recruiting for clinical trials to providing access to current MS disease-modifying therapies. We're also talking about a new Cleveland Clinic study that shows that neurological function deteriorates more quickly in depressed MS patients. We'll tell you about a study that underscores the importance of screening and treating people living with MS for anxiety along with depression. And you'll hear about a new web-based tool designed to help manage your emotional wellness. We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
