Beat autoimmune by Palmer Kippola

Has anyone else read this fascinating book?

The premise being that the largest part of the autoimmune system is in the gut,

and due to many causes, (antibiotics,oral

contraceptives etc., etc.,) the gut becomes damaged.

the book teaches you how to heal your gut and possibly reverse MS symptoms

I started taking a lot of the recommended supplements, it is expensive, but I’m hoping for good results

i always believed the gut was involved with MS somehow (gut feeling lol) and am giving it a go.

Results can be seen from 4 weeks to 6 months, depending on how damaged the gut is.

I scored so high in the gut test which gives causes of gut damage.

Very interesting

Hi, I don’t now about this book and I’m always dubious about these books that claim to do this, or that. But I do know 1 thing, years before I was DX’d with spms I had a bacterial gut infection, at the time my GP said the 1 I had was rare, (can’t remember the full name) infact she was very surprised when blood results showed it, now years later when I read that the gut could be involved I do wonder was this the start.

Here is the best advice I have seen on diet and MS. Both the MS Society and the MS Trust (not to mention the good old NHS) are a bit behind the curve on diet and nutrition, but there’s useful work going on, as this Barts Blog post suggests, and some easy advice to follow and none of it costs a penny.

Thank you guys for this information, in 1992 I was thought to have a ‘leaky gut’ at that time I had lost a huge amount of weight. We knew that something was wrong but not what, 2007 diagnosed with PPMS . Symptoms years before.

The gut matters

Take care, be safe. M x

I have thoughts like that too, very frustrating!

Thanks for info, will peruse

The book made so much sense. There’s so much we don’t know about the gut too.

As a child I had multiple courses of antibiotics resulting in tetracycline tooth staining.

Antibiotics are a huge no - no for the gut

What was the treatment for that?

As a child I had multiple courses of antibiotics resulting in tetracycline tooth staining, only later resolved by professional teeth whitening at the dentist
