Episode 140: Vitamins, Nutrition & Stress Reduction -- Managing MS Symptoms with Dr. Elizabeth Crabtree

My guest is Dr. Elizabeth Crabtree, the Medical Director at the Tulane Center for Comprehensive MS Care. Dr. Crabtree is passionate about creating meaningful care models for patients living with MS. And this week, we're taking a deep dive with Dr. Crabtree into the impact of nutrition, diet, and vitamins in managing MS symptoms. We're also going to get into the impact of stress on MS, and Dr. Crabtree will even share some tips on how to best manage that stress.

We're also talking about a new mouse study that suggests starting treatment with Rituximab in people who are at risk of developing MS or in MS patients before they develop any motor symptoms may be a way to avoid inflammation and myelin loss, and actually prevent MS from further developing.

We'll tell you about a new nanosensor that can diagnose MS with 97% accuracy before symptoms even develop.

We'll share new data that shows Mayzent slowed physical disability progression and provided cognitive benefits to people with secondary progressive MS. And you'll hear about the study that shows that early use of Ocrevus may lower the need for a walking aid by 49% over 6 years.

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