My name’s Islam A., I’m Egyptian physiotherapist. I’ve a patient with MS 14 ago. Her last attack since 3 years get her on wheel chair. With Allah (My God) help then with her brave will, I successed to get the wheel chair off partially and let her to walk on one crutch and small help from my hand then she now is developing to get stable on two crutch but we failed.
The problem in her way of eating, We are in need to protien but MS prevent any milky products (white cheese, Yoghrt, ..etc)
Also she noticed that the contour of one calf muscle is incresed and the other is decreased..
Frankly, My speciality is orthopaedic, but she can’t trust any one else to treat her, So I’ve been obligated to read more and more (more than we had studied in the collage) and search about Multiple Sclerosis.
I hope to help me.

2. Avoid all allergenic foods which are identified by skin and ELISA tests.
3. Avoid all red meat and margarine
4. Eat fish and skinless breast of chicken and turkey, for protein fruits and vegetables for carbohydrates and micro-nutrients and extra virgin olive oil and unrefined sunflower oil for fats.
