Interview with Terry Wahls, MD

In this episode, I interview Dr. Terry Wahls a clinical professor of medicine at the University of Iowa where she conducts clinical trials and instructs internal medicine residents. In addition to being a doctor, she is also a patient with chronic, progressive multiple sclerosis. Dr. Wahls restored her own health using a diet and lifestyle program she designed. She is the author of The Wahls Protocol: How I Beat Progressive MS Using Paleo Principles and Functional Medicine, The Wahls Protocol: A Radical New Way to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions Using Paleo Principles, and the cookbook The Wahls Protocol Cooking for Life: The Revolutionary Modern Paleo Plan to Treat All Chronic Autoimmune Conditions.

In this interview, Dr. Wahls shares with us her holistic health journey both personally and professionally, and she speaks to the role of nurses in practicing functional medicine.
