Episode 221: Diet, Nutrition, and MS with Mona Bostick, RDN

Eating well is an important part of a wellness plan. At first glance, making healthy food choices seems simple. But with so much conflicting information and opinion masquerading as fact on websites and in social media, what do you believe and where do you begin?

Joining me to separate fact from fiction and share smart strategies that will get you started on solid nutritional footing is my guest, Mona Bostick. Mona is a registered dietician-nutritionist and a multiple sclerosis certified specialist who has been living with relapsing-remitting MS since 2008.

We'll also remind you about why your most important preparation for the holiday season this year is making sure you're fully vaccinated.

We'll tell you how cutting-edge genome-editing technology was used to identify a potential new drug target for treating and, perhaps, preventing MS.

We'll explain what digital biomarkers are, and we'll tell you why including them in the Phase 3 clinical trial for Tolebrutinib is a very good thing.

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