Very well organized, with much information and hope for MS patients & families. Let's us know there is hope and good food for us. Felt much healthier within a 6 mos period. That was 12 years ago. still going strong. Best information source for staying well that I've read

4.0 out of 5 stars MS Roy Swank Diet Book, 24 May 2005
By A Customer
Ordered the book through Amazon-hard back copy, as it was difficult to get hold of elsewhere.
Thorough reading, very interesting, lots of recipies. Had been using the diet for 2 months and it does work. Some parts of the book are detailed and one has to read it a few times to become accustomed to amounts of fats/oils permitted. Have spoken to people who have actually been patients of Roy Swank before his retirement and they continue to be symptom free after 17 and 26 years just by following his diet.An excellent buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars it is a very helpful book, 3 Aug 1998
By A Customer
This book is great. It helps you understand many aspects of Multiple Sclerosis and gives you a comprehensive natural therapy. The recipes are very useful....however, I must say that Swank agrees with the use of dairy products as well as other animal products,as long as they are low fat (no animal product is 100 percent fat-free), and other researches have shown that animal products in general can be detrimental to MS. So this is a good book, but people with MS should know not to stop there when finding alternative therapies for this illness. Also, Swank includes a section warning women against pregnancy, and as a person with MS I have gone through two pregnancies and my condition has only gotten better... this book fails to explore in detail pregnancy, childbirth and lactation in a woman with MS. Two books that I highly recommend for those with MS are "Natural Health, Natural Medicine" by Dr. Andrew Weil; and "Multiple Sclerosis" by Judy Graham

3.0 out of 5 stars Strong on advice and comfort
First of all, please consult a neurologist, with a very strong preference for a neurologist at an MS clinic, for current treatment guidelines. Read more
