RealTalk MS Episode 12: The Difference Between Men and Women With MS
Multiple sclerosis affects men and women differently. Women are 3 times more likely to get MS, but men often develop more significant disabilities from MS. This week's guest, Dr. Rhonda Voskuhl, is a trailblazer in not only exploring the differences between the sexes in MS, but in identifying what seems to be a safe and effective treatment for MS symptoms. So why aren't pharmaceutical companies lining up to bring this treatment to market? Hear what Dr. Voskuhl has to say about that and more in this week's podcast.
We're also talking about a study that illustrates how your diet may be an effective tool in reducing MS symptoms and limiting disability. And we're discussing what thousands of people with MS once considered to be a "breakthrough" in treating MS that, according to its creator, doesn't work at all.

We've got the news, views, interviews & breakthroughs that are important to you. So...are you ready for RealTalk MS?
