I've had MS for 20 years. My constipation went away when I switched to a more meat-based carnivore diet. The higher fat I am eating helps, not fiber. I don't use meds for this.

I have ms, and my symptoms seem to go wild lately but also I’ve had ms for nearly 20 years now. A friend has point me to the carnivore diet which I want to start soon as. Please feel free to share more of your experience with this diet… I suffer with fatigue and it’s very hard to manage. Did your energy levels improve?? Many thanks 🙏

@@aluna_m888 The brain fog lifted on day 10. I started having more energy after a month. I'm off most of the stimulants I had to take daily to function. I don't take daily naps anymore. Dave Mac interviewed me on YT @zerocarb. It posted on 4/2/24. He has an MS playlist.
Thanks!
Two things that have helped me: 1 - Taking fiber supplements daily 2 - Jumping for short periods of time on a mini-trampoline with a handle

Thanks love the connection to your bowels explanation…my bowels are complicated from the ms and have been even more challenging since I switched to Aubagio. I hadn’t thought about training my bowels but from this I did realize that I feel most comfortable when my bowels move every other day…now instead of worrying I can observe and train…😊

Hi Dr. Gretchen. A few years ago I had a lot of trouble with my bowels exploding. It was very messy and frequent. I finally figured out how to get back control. 1. I cut back on coffee and beer. 2. I started wearing suspenders. Having a BELT tight around your waist squishes all your internal organs. Everything is fine now.

My gluten and core have been on a vacation for a long time. Would it be fine to use these exercises to bring them back home?
@DoctorGretchenHawley

absolutely! Glute and core strengthening is always helpful, even if you’re unable to feel the muscles activate at first since you haven’t used them in a while.
