My wife has progressive MS and was scheduled to be  evaluated for a clinical trial for adult stem cell transplatation on may 18th but she started eating macrobiotically the day after Easter. When we went in for the evaluation she was no longer needing her crutches or wheelchair. She was still using her leg braces but was doing so well they said she no longer qualified for the trial.   The MS doctor said if she had not seen it with her own eyes she would not have believed that a macrobiotic way of eating would be so helpful.   At the present my wife no longer uses any support including her leg braces. She also does not require Oxygen and she no longer chokes when swallowing. She is now able to drive again as well.Today we just got back from walking a mile and she still does not need any support.   If anyone is interested they can read about it at the Kushi Institute site: http://www.kushiinstitute.org/index.htmll
