My MS Podcast Alene Brennan

I’m back from my trip, and today, I'm sharing how I stayed consistent on the Wahls Protocol while traveling as well as the biggest mistake I made one night out at dinner. From group dinners with pre-fixed menus, to resisting those tempting local treats - I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at what went right, what went completely wrong and everything in between. I’m sharing this all in hopes that it can make your travels a bit easier too.

Today I'm going off script.
I’m sharing a behind-the-scenes look at exactly how I’m preparing to stay consistent during a trip that I’m going on next week. 
So, I’m sharing everything from 
What I plan on eating - especially during group dinners and with pre-fixed menus - to


How I handle the social pressure and judgment from others who don’t understand the Wahls Protocol - and in some cases don’t know about my diagnosis either, as well as


How to deal with feeling left out or deprived when others around you are indulging in local treats that can’t partake in.
This is a do-not miss episode! 
 

Why are eggs restricted on the Wahls Protocol?
 
They’re such a great and easy protein. 
 
They’re also so versatile - you can have hard boiled eggs, scrambled eggs, an omelet, or even egg muffins. 
 
You don’t seem to have an obvious reactions to them.
 
So why is such a seemingly healthy protein restricted on the Wahls Protocol? 
 
And does this rule really apply to you?
 
Let’s find out.
 

Will gluten free packaged foods sabotage your results on the Wahls Protocol?  
 
I mean, it's gluten free so how bad can it really be, right? 
 
You just need a little something for this diet to not feel so strict. 
 
So, what's a little snack here and there? 
 
Let's find out! 
 
And spoiler alert, prepare to be surprised by my response.

They say timing is everything in life. 
 
Some say timing is everything when it comes to eating too, especially if you’re using food as medicine. 
 
I’m talking about intermittent fasting. 
 
It can hold some pretty compelling potential. 
 
People credit it for:
Improving gut health
Reducing inflammation
Enhancing brain health
Regulating the immune system

And so much more. 
 
But is it practical with your lifestyle? 
 
Because, as a nutrition coach, I’ll tell you, it’s not just about skipping meals. There’s more to it… at least if you want to get results, and that’s what we’re after right?
