“There is a lot more research out there about how the food we eat turns genes on and off and can shift genes, silence disease-promoting genes or rev up disease-promoting genes.”  - Dr. Terry Wahls

Dr. Terry Wahls is a clinical professor at the University of Iowa where she conducts clinical trials testing the efficacy of therapeutic lifestyle to treat multiple sclerosis-related symptoms.
