The Wahls Protocol: A Radical New Way to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions Using Paleo Principles

by Terry Wahls (Narrator), Eve Adamson (Primary Contributor), Laural Merlington (Narrator)

The Wahls Protocol has become a sensation, transforming the lives of people with autoimmune diseases. Now in this fully revised edition, Dr. Terry Wahls outlines the latest research that validates the program and offers new, powerful tools to arm readers and help them achieve total health. The Wahls Protocol comes out of Dr. Wahls' own quest to treat the debilitating symptoms she experiences as a sufferer of progressive MS. Informed by science, she began using Paleo principles as guidelines for her unique, nutrient-rich plan. This book shares Dr. Wahls' astonishing personal story of recovery and details the program, with up-to-date research she's now conducting at the University of Iowa. Split into three different levels, this updated edition allows listeners to choose the modified Wahls Diet if they're new to the regime, the Wahls Paleo Diet if they're ready to amp up their health, or the more advanced Wahls Paleo Plus Diet if they need more aggressive treatment. They can also incorporate the just-added Wahls Elimination Diet into their plan to pinpoint individual food sensitivities, so their diet is as personal as ever. The Wahls Protocol is a key addition to the "whole food" revolution, and a deeply moving, results-driven testimonial to the healing power of food.

A very beneficial text, and the logic/science behind it all makes perfect sense to me. I am not sure if it's practical for the average person, especially for people who live in super rural areas with very little access to fresh foods and limited income.

Excellent book with a wealth of information. I am concerned about the emphasis on plant foods without a larger discussion of oxalates and other anti-nutrients found in plants (though it’s not vegan or vegetarian). I've read several accounts of people who ended up worse on Wahls due to this. I think the overall information is correct: a wide variety of nutrient dense food. I just wish there was more information and a warning about the detrimental effects of oxalates, etc.

Interesting story about healing Multiple Sclerosis with diet. It can be done, though the diet may be psychologically difficult for some. If you have MS, I’d say it’s worth a shot!
