00:01From a health standpoint, your diet and lifestyle is the most effective tool that we have.

00:07If you get the diet wrong, it's very hard to recover.

00:12I grew up on a farm, and as a teenager I was certainly very active.

00:16I did running, I did some marathons, long distance skiing.

00:22My symptoms began during medical school.

00:26Something was very wrong.

00:28I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

00:32Taking the newest drugs was not stopping my decline, and I did not want to become disabled.

00:40I understood how pain could kill.

01:36I'm not on any disease modifying drugs anymore.

01:40This is all diet and lifestyle.

01:41I did not expect to recover.

01:50The power of healing lies within you.

01:54Our world needs to change.

01:57Having multiple sclerosis has been one of the greatest gifts I've received.

02:01It allowed me to relearn and rethink everything that I thought I understood about medicine.

02:06It allowed me to take care of medicine.
