“This book is not only the remarkable story of a family dedicated to overcoming life’s obstacles; it also provides a compelling account of a potentially significant breakthrough in the treatment of autoimmune disease.”

“I consider it a privilege to be one of the first people to have read this masterful anecdote about one person’s victory over multiple sclerosis through diet…. I endorse this book because I believe the scientific literature increasingly supports the notion that diet is one of the most important environmental factors responsible for eliciting multiple sclerosis in genetically susceptible individuals…. Numerous human clinical studies reveal that increased intestinal permeability (a “leaky gut”) frequently precedes the development of symptoms in many autoimmune diseases including multiple sclerosis….
Science and medicine are not static processes, but are dynamically changing as new information replaces yesterday’s “truths”. The past dogma was that diet had little to do with multiple sclerosis. However, in large human networks people frequently arrive at correct solutions to complex problems before the science can explain the underlying mechanisms. I believe that such is the case for multiple sclerosis and diet. Linda and others like her have found a dietary solution to their disease, and an emerging body of scientific evidence suggests that they were right all along.”
