About this item
There is no cure for Multiple Sclerosis, but you can make a real difference by changing what you eat. Medical research shows that a diet very low in saturated fat can reduce the disease's progression and even reverse its course in some cases. This cookbook gathers more than 200 favorite recipes from people with MS around the world. They are delicious, wholefood, meat-free, and dairy-free recipes for home cooks. The recipes include quick and easy lunches and dinners, a variety of seafood dishes, luxurious weekend breakfasts, special occasion cakes, and holiday baking. There are vegan and gluten-free recipes, and a menu plan created by a qualified nutritionist. The recipes can be beneficial for anyone with heart disease, type 2 diabetes, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
About the Author
Ingrid Adelsberger is a home cook and the editor of the Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis Cookbook. She was diagnosed with MS in 2011 and found the Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis program the same year. After successfully following the diet for about a year and struggling emotionally with not being able to eat the food she had to give up, she fell off the wagon. She wondered if cooking tastier meals would make it easier to stick to the diet, and the idea of a cookbook for people with MS was born.
Since her diagnosis, Ingrid has become interested in the benefits of nutrition, meditation, and fitness. She is now a yoga instructor and a health coach, helping other people create a happy, healthy, and sustainable lifestyle for themselves.
Born in Vienna, Austria, Ingrid lived in New York City for over a decade, and recently relocated with her husband to Los Angeles. Ingrid has been successfully managing her MS on the Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis program since 2011.
