I wish I could tell you food alone will fix it all.
But MS isnโ€™t a punishment you can reverse with kale. Or offal.
Food helps. Routines help. Grace helps more.
The cure fantasy will burn you out. Let it go. #multiplesclerosis #dietitian

It's hard to tell the difference between:

1. Scientific language that's evidence-based

2. Scientific language built on cherry-picked data

Especially without training in research.

Best to follow a range of voicesโ€”not just one influencer or group of people with identical beliefs.
