The MS Diet Collective will be online and social! It will be a WordPress website with exciting plugins that will allow members to interact in many different ways.
The MS Diet Collective Members with a diagnosis of MS will learn Wellness strategies by sharing that knowledge with others.
Each MS Diet Collective Member will have their own Blog. In addition to a Blog post a Member can upload videos, and share their videos with TikTok, YouTube….
Blogs will appear inside the The MS Diet Collective News Feed. Members can vote on their favorites.
The MS Diet Collective will be open to everyone; academic Universities, paid content online publishers, published book authors, drug companies, social media influencers and other influential people.
Mentor status will be given to Members who emulate The MS Diet Collective way of life. Those who live a life that others can learn from will be the leaders that will make our Community the success that it can be.
We will have advertisements. The women diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis are typically between the ages of 26 and 54; Advertisers from this demographic will be The MS Diet Collective Corporation’s major profit center.
THE REASONS WHY WE ARE HERE
There is a real need for Community for those who have an MS diagnosis. People can become despondent upon diagnosis. They might lose social connections upon exiting the workplace due to disease progression.
Dynamics of the family change, and there is isolation in that. In short, people need people, and like attracts like.
A metabolic lipid disorder disease can present to a physician as Multiple Sclerosis. This is a hypothesis that is relatively new in the literature. The majority of people living with a diagnosis of MS may not know of this new research.
The MS Diet Collective wants all alternative therapy discussions to be heard.
Our Mission Statement:
FIND MOTION
A Person’s Wellness Journey Deserves Sharing
I am today relearning new eye-hand coordination in my upper body.
At one time, my body and my lymphatic channels were clogged with a lifetime of unmetabolized saturated fats.
My life experiences could be someone else’s. I need a home to share my knowledge with others. The MS Diet Collective is mission driven to share new research, and actual people’s experiences with a Recovery from Progression.
Real-Time Longitudinal Studies
Double-blind studies have importance, but longitudinal data matters more to us. Wellness affects the trajectory of MS over a person’s lifetime. The MS Diet Collective Community Members who live their lives inside Wellness will have a home to share their lives with others.
The MS Diet Collective Will Explore the Potential Connection Between Food Allergens and MS
When I learned online there was a significant correlation between an MS diagnosis and a milk allergy, I found an allergist, got tested, and decided to stop consuming milk; when the test returned positive for an allergy to Casein, a protein found in dairy milk. The MS Diet Collective will encourage everyone in the Community to do food allergy testing.
In addition, the Founders have a need to know if allergens other than Casein play a role in the development of MS.
In the Beginning…
A first neurologist doubted that the results from my spinal fluid pointed towards a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis.
A subsequent neurologist prescribed me medications for relapsing MS. This was in 2007. Two years later I had a change of mindset and began my Wellness Journey. I stopped taking those medications prescribed for MS.
In 2012 I had the conception of how my life’s experience held a business model; reaching people who are lost as I once was, inside of their own fight.
Myself, and others like me, could give that hope to others, this hope that I now had.
This is why We Are Here
My diet and those lifestyle choices have paid off. My tight and rigid body is soft and pliable. My belief is that massage will now smooth out lymphatic pathways. Once my skin and muscles were glued together and very hard. My muscles and my joints were locked into place.
I am now ready for my new body to start working for me. Massage will break up my once clogged lymphatic system.
I have full sensation in my lower limbs. With massage, physical activity (swimming), and continuing physical therapy, it is my hope to begin regaining some mobility of my lower extremities.
My accessibility to massage increases lymphatic flow, brings the release of more upper musculature, and the use of electrical muscular stimulation, E-stim, brings further improvement in upper body coordination.
ADDITIONAL AREAS FOR OUR COMMUNITY TO EXPLORE
The Swank Diet Book: Multiple Sclerosis 101
Originally hypothesized in the 1950’s was the correlation between a high fat diet and MS.
INTRO TO THE CASEIN HYPOTHESIS
I strongly feel an allergy to milk is the origin of my disease. Future journal articles, links to past research, I wish this information can be shared to many.
MORE QUESTIONS…
Do a variety of food allergens promote the genesis of multiple sclerosis?
In other words, will The MS Diet Collective’s Members discover their disease-courses to be related to a food allergen?
Will the The MS Diet Collective website uncover a direct correlation of the food allergen involved with the different disease modalities of MS?
A New MS Therapy Protocol: A Hybrid Model
The dysfunctional walking gait of the lower extremities, pelvis locked inside of a wheelchair; traditional therapy models don’t address these concerns due to ethical practices.
For this reason, all in the The MS Diet Collective will work together on the issues stemming from impaired lymphatic circulation, rotated vertebrae, and the affected dorsal roots of the spinal cord. We welcome academics and all therapy practitioners to create new therapies for our Members and those who love them.
The Recovery/Therapist/Partner Model deserves to be developed to give a Patient and Intimate Partner license to actively participate in therapy.
Specific homework exercises between therapy sessions will fill voids missing in traditional physical therapy. The MS Diet Collective Members with their therapists, together will develop and implement this New Therapy Model.
Future Partnerships: Recruit Academic Universities
The MS Diet Collective will actively solicit academic researchers worldwide. The transcribing of published journal articles into everyday language, Professors plugging into our Community, could lead to real change.
The MS Diet Collective Will Encourage Our Members’ Participation in academic research studies in their home communities.
After our Collective has grown, we will actively seek partnerships with research universities.
The participation in academic longitudinal studies is one of The MS Diet Collective’s missions.
The MS Diet Collective will encourage Members to get tested for food allergens
Food Allergy Groups can begin to answer questions about any potential relationship between MS and food. MS subtypes can be grouped together. Different theories of disease onset in causational factors could be extrapolated by asking various questions of these groups. One question could be; do they have any commonalities such as food sensitivities?
All Wellness Strategies
Our Collective will give an open platform for all discussions of Alternative Therapies.
At The MS Diet Collective our ultimate mission is to move away from a multiple sclerosis pharmaceutical paradigm to one of Wellness; Spiritual, Low-Fat Diet, Mind-Body Connection, Marijuana Studies, and numerous other Alternative Therapies. All will have a home here.
