Dr. Terry Wahls – Why you should STOP keto (at least for now) | Ep 86

by Dr. Steven Gundry | Mar 23, 2020

Food is medicine — and my guest today is living proof.

In 2000, she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and within a few years, she was confined to a wheelchair.

But instead of just relying on conventional medicine, she radically transformed her diet. Within a year, she’d ditched the wheelchair — and the cane — and was back on her beloved bicycle.

She’s Dr. Terry Wahls, a professor at the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine, a bestselling author, and one of the foremost experts on the power of nutrition to reverse autoimmune disease.

On today’s show, Dr. Wahls and I are going to tackle hot topics like the keto diet and intermittent fasting, discuss whether fruit is really all it’s cracked up to be, and discuss why gluten-free doesn’t always mean there’s no gluten at all.

Don’t miss this one!

In this episode, you’ll learn:
