Main Points From Today\u2019s Episode

1. Dr. Terry Wahls designed The Wahls Diet to help reverse her symptoms of multiple sclerosis and heal her body. Key foods in The Wahls Protocol include leafy greens, sulfur-rich veggies, and vegetables and berries that are deeply colored all the way through.
2. Deeply colored vegetables and berries have been linked to lower risks of cancer, heart attacks, and obesity, as well as improved thinking ability. Studies on folks with early cognitive decline show that 1 cup of blueberries a day helps improve cognitive performance.
3. A comprehensive analysis showed that The Wahls Diet is extremely dense in nutrients. One of the reasons is due to the focus on leafy greens since greens are the most nutritionally dense parts of the plant.
