Dr.
Terry Wahls
"In 2003 Terry Wahls, M.D., was diagnosed with secondary progressive
multiple sclerosis and soon became dependent upon a tilt-recline
wheelchair. After developing and using the Wahls Protocol™, she is now
able to walk through the hospital and commute to work by bicycle. She
now uses intensive directed nutrition in her primary care and traumatic
brain injury clinics. Dr. Wahls is the lead scientist in a clinical
trial testing her protocol in others with progressive MS."
