Good point on following words like “overcoming”, “managing”, “hope”, “optimism”, etc. After all, if you don’t believe the placebo effect cannot work.

In this case, I don’t think we are seeing a placebo effect, however. The science and data are there and eating right and living an ultra healthy life style is just common sense if you have MS. Nonetheless, like Pageler, I have had some mud thrown at me too. LOL It is a good thing that mud makes a fine beauty treatment — at my age, 60, beauty treatments are uplifting. LOL

Thanks for using this blog to help keep the need for healthy living in focus.
