How Your Diet Impacts Your Relationships, Happiness, and Longevity with Dr. Terry Wahls
15 Mar 2020
The foods you choose to consume and the lifestyle practices you live out daily determine the quality of your relationships, the happiness you experience, and ultimately your fate. In this episode of the Align podcast, I chat with Dr. Terry Wahls, who is more than a doctor specializing in autoimmune conditions, but also a patient with a chronic, progressive disease. Dr. Terry was diagnosed with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis in 2000, and by 2003 she had transitioned to secondary progressive multiple sclerosis. It was clear that eventually she would become bedridden by her disease, and she made it her mission to forestall her fate as long as possible. From Dr. Terry’s direct experience, she shares her expertise on the connection between our diet and lifestyle and the quality of our lives. We chat about everything from the amount of love and loneliness we feel, to the amount of energy and vitality we experience, and the deep relationships we have in our lives. Dr. Terry Wahls is also a clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa Carver College, the creator the Wahls Protocol diet, and the author of the Wahls Protocol book. What you’ll learn: How to mentally face and deal with chronic conditions/diseases The affects chronic conditions/diseases have on relationships The connection between love/loneliness and nutrition The affect a healthier diet has on the mentality of children Lifestyle factors that lessen the symptoms of chronic diseases A new approach to the Paleo diet A breakdown of the Walhs Protocol diet for autoimmune conditions Find more from Dr. Terry: The Wahl's Protocol @drterrywhals drterrywahls.com
