Episode 178: Diet and MS with Dr. Ilana Katz Sand

Paleo...Wahls...Swank...Mediterranean...intermittent fasting. Is there such a thing as "The MS Diet"? Joining me to offer an expert opinion about diet and MS is Dr. Ilana Katz Sand, the Associate Director of the Corinne Goldsmith Dickinson Center for MS and Co-Director of the Center's Wellness Program. Dr. Katz Sand's recent and current research studies include a clinical trial of dietary interventions for MS and exploring the role of the gut microbiome in MS. Dr. Katz Sand is also a member of the National MS Society's Wellness Research Work Group where, over the past year, she's led the work of the Nutrition Wellness Subgroup.

We're also looking at how a recent announcement about a new MS vaccine caught fire on social media. And we'll tell you what that news was really all about!

We'll tell you about a study in Sweden that showed a cancer treatment may protect the blood-brain barrier and reduce neuroinflammation in MS. And we're talking about a Columbia University study that shows why, if you're living with MS, "ya gotta have friends"! We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!

Thanks for your feedback! :22
