Rating: - MS diet book technical info
I have heard of Dr. Swank's MS diet and wanted to try it, as I cannot afford the Avonex anymore. Even though I found the book very educational and chock full of techinical information, like everything else, there is no cure for MS. I feel losing weight and any low carb diet would work just as well. I did appreciate the kinds of oils to use and controversial subject of mulk and milk products. It as a good read.

I believe this book to be outdated. I was expecting a more holistic approach to the food choices.
Rating: - Ridiculous
This book infers that you are your disease. Sleeping 1-2 hours a day is ridiculous. The book even advocates pretty much "taking to your bed" rather than having an active full life. I was so apalled by the outdated ridiculous notions perscribed by this book. I cannot believe it is still being published. Healthy diet, exercies and vitamins are great! This diet will NOT cure MS or stop it's progression, and implying that it will is a disservice to those who are desperatly hoping for a "cure."
