What is The Wahls Protocol®?
Dr. Terry Wahls was diagnosed with Progressive Primary Multiple Sclerosis and was steadily declining. She became dependent on a tilt-recline wheelchair for four years. As her health continued to decline, she tried all the new cutting-edge MS drugs and still continued to decline.
Instead of giving up and accepting that she would continue to decline, Dr. Wahls reclaimed her health through rigorous diet and lifestyle modifications. She developed The Wahls Protocol®, a therapeutic diet and lifestyle approach designed by Dr. Wahls that focused on restoring cellular health.
In one year, she went from a tilt recline wheelchair to being able to do the things she loved again like riding her bike. Terry now dedicates her life to helping others recover from MS and other Chronic Diseases.
How Dr. Wahls Reclaimed Her Health
Using the core Foundations of Functional Medicine such as modifiable diet and lifestyle factors as well as rigorous physical therapy interventions, Dr. Wahls developed a protocol that focuses on the root cause of chronic disease. The Wahls Protocol® focuses on cellular health and supportive nutrients for the health of the mitochondria are the foundations of the protocol.
The Wahls Protocol® was developed with a heavy emphasis on the diet which is modeled after an ancestral paleo diet. By increasing her vegetable intake up to nine cups of colorful vegetables a day, sourcing quality protein as well as eating more fermented foods, Terry started to notice changes in her health.
Dr. Wahls was able to eat her way out of a wheelchair in just one year. She has been helping people around the world reclaim their health with Functional Medicine by implementing The Wahls Protocol®.

It all begins with Diet. This is one of the only elements that we have the most control over in our environment. Diet is the most powerful tool you have to heal your MS and other autoimmune and chronic diseases.
