Summary: Miracle Cure...
Comment: This isn't a miracle cure for the masses because most people either won't believe it, won't try it or won't stick with it. The research and documentation are extremely extensive. Not many remedies in any disease can boast a 33 year study with a nearly 90% success rate.
I have been on this diet for 2 1/2 years, starting a month after my diagnosis on advice of my personal physician, who had met Dr. Swank.
People only know I have MS when they question why I won't eat something. I keep my Saturated Fat level under 15 grams a day, closer to 10 most days. Since my original symptoms have gone away I have had no other problems.
My suggestion to you is don't knock it until you've tried it. Dr. Swanks book is a God send - Thanks!

Summary: It Changed My Life
Comment: I was diagnosed with MS in 1990. My wife and I found this book almost immediately. We both have medical backgrounds. This book made sense. All my neurologist offered was testing and drugs. While the high dose steroids did alleviate my symptoms I knew there had to be more that I could do. Because of the information in this book I made lifestyle changes. Initially we left off all meat and meat products. We left 1% milk ,eggs and low fat cheese on our diet. We maintained total fat grams to less than 30/day. We both started an active exercise programm and just as importantly got plenty of rest. ( early to bed early to rise so to speak). Over the years I have modified the diet. I pretty much eat what I want now except I have not started eating meat again. Today after 10 years I do not have any significant residual effects from MS. I drink plenty of water everyday. I have not tried any of the new medical treatments for MS. Because of "The Multiple Sclerosis Diet Book" I made changes in my lifestyle that I felt would be healthy for me regardless of having MS. I did not agree with everything in the book and sort of picked and chose what I felt would be best for me personally. I have not regretted my lifestyle change and thank Dr. Swank for making this book available. I think it still has some of the best advice available to MS patients.

Summary: This diet works!
Comment: When initially diagnosed a bit over a year ago I was reccomended this book by an MS chapter in my area. Since my husband is keen on diet and I was not, I bought it and began to follow its protocols just in case it might help. Well, it has really helped. One week I went off the Swank diet thinking 'Hey, I ate whatever I wanted for decades, why keep this up?'. Guess what? My symptoms worsened immediately! So back on the diet I went and have stayed. Of course, to satisfy my nuerologist I also do Avonex and do have a daily regimen of vitamins but the Swank diet is the key component. It keeps me fine, fine, fine.
