The Raw Cure: Healing Beyond Medicine: Raw Foods Diet For Easing Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms

In 2012, a book was released that changed the conversation about easing the symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis. The book was titled, The Raw Cure: Healing Beyond Medicine, written by Jesse J. Jacoby. (also see The History of the Raw Foods Movement) His research on using the Raw Foods Diet For Easing Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms has been gaining traction. However, the link between better eating habits & MS manageability has been researched for years before the book was published.

Using Raw Foods Diet For Easing Multiple Sclerosis Symptoms

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a disease that affects the body’s central nervous system. As the National MS Society noted, “it is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, also, between the brain and body.” The most troubling thing about MS is that we still don’t clearly understand what causes it. One of the main underlying issues is that it destroys one’s immune system. This leads to a clear need for proper nutrition. A quote from Dr. L Roy Swank.

Dr. L. Roy Swank led the charge to focus on nutrition in MS patients. In 1950, Dr. Swank researched the correlation between low-saturated-fat dieting and controlling MS symptoms. This research is foundational to our understanding of diet and multiple sclerosis and is still widely recommended in the MS medical community. Undoubtedly, most of the patients he treated during the 50s are still alive and functioning today. This lends serious weight to Swank’s findings.

The research and the focus on a raw foods diet brought the Walk Multiple Sclerosis charity to Wholesale Nuts And Dried Fruit. They contacted us, and we jumped right in with a £100 donation to reach donors, scientists, patients, and their families. We brought 50 pounds of walnuts and 50 pounds of raisins to the Walk MS office, a Multiple Sclerosis charity office. From here on, you can expect to see more nuts and fruits at MS Runs.
