Hi@johnbishop! Are you still on the Dr. Terry Wahls diet? Do you believe it helped to control your PMR? Thanks!

Hi @igolf, I don't really follow a specific diet anymore but her Wahls Protocol book was what got me to start eating healthier. I do think diet plays a major part in controlling my PMR and helping my immune system. Probably the biggest change I've made is mostly eliminating fast foods and sugar but I'm not perfect with the sugar but I'm way better than a few years ago. At the end of last month I started an intermittent fasting plan to lose some more weight. I've been between 240 and 250 going back and forth for quite a few years and set a new goal for 215 once I learned a little more about intermittent fasting. Basically eat your 3 squares one day and the next day skip breakfast and lunch but eat dinner which gives you more than 16 hours between meals. The first fasting day I did the full day but don't think it's really needed after learning more from reading. Great new source I've discovered is @LeeAase's health blog which he has links to some great information that helps you understand how the body stores and burns fat (my words 🙂 ). Here's a link to his blog if you are interested -- https://social-media-university-global.org/my-health-journey/
