Could diet help slow symptoms of multiple sclerosis?

In our morning rounds, a new approach to fight multiple sclerosis -- a disease where the body attacks its own central nervous system. MS affects about 400,000 people in the United States. It is two to three times more common among women. Current treatments may have severe side effects, and there is no cure. Dr. Tara Narula joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss a cutting edge, but low-tech attempt to slow the symptoms.

Gluten, processed sugars and soy are inflammatory as well

Something without dairy does not sound like a Mediterranean diet TBH, I cant imagine French, Spanish, Italian or Greek table with no cheese on it.

I believe either Americans or Japanese or Israelis will find a solution to MS lupus etc

Grains are very often a source of inflammation so you should be very careful in recommending them to a multiple sclerosis individual

[demoskunk]

It's actually 971, 000 people in the US with MS. And grains should be avoided. Eat quality meat and fish.

Note the focus on non-measurable reporting. How about some cultures before and after? No? Junk science, totally influenced by social and cultural factors.

Cold pages foods or processed foods ?

Look into the HPA axis and the lymphatic system during REM sleep. People are being treated with oxytocin so account for this in diet. GABA in diet can help with a more productive REM sleep to flush out inflammation. To start I would include eggs, figs and citrus.

Some closed caption so I know what's being said.

Seriously, try keto. Stay away from Glenn, lectins, and sugar.
