Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis: The Evidence-Based 7 Step Recovery Program
Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis is an established and successful program of treatment. Once a diagnosis of MS meant inevitable decline and disability. Now thousands of people around the world are living healthy, active lives on the Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis recovery program. Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis explains the nature of MS and outlines an evidence-based 7 step program for recovery. Professor George Jelinek devised the program from an exhaustive analysis of medical research when he was first diagnosed with MS in 1999. It has been refined through major ongoing international clinical studies under Professor Jelinek's leadership, examining the lifestyles of several thousand people with MS world-wide and their health outcomes. Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis is invaluable for anyone recently diagnosed with MS, living with MS for years, or with a family member with MS. It makes an ideal resource for doctors treating people with MS.

the most comprehensive MS book around. as an MS patient myself, i found this book very well researched. I read a dozen books on this topic from personal
stories to research and diets but this was the best hands down. I was disappointed with Wahls protocol and didn't understand the fuss about it. this book instead covers everything a newly diagnosed should know. it's a great blend between science and story, easy to read, easy to follow. also, the OMS diet is less restrictive in comparison to other i've seen around

Максимално ми се не да сада писати ривју ове књиге јер ми је вријеме за спавање, а и бојим се да је њена потенцијална читалачка публика врло малена, јер скоро сам сигуран да скоро нико ко сам нема мултиплу склерозу, или барем не зна лично неког ко има, неће бити претјерано заинтересован за њу. С једне стране то је сасвим разумљиво, а с друге је и повелика штета, јер ово је једно врло занимљиво и вриједно штиво не само за оне који су запатили МС и њихове ближње, већ и за оне који се сусрећу за било којом тежом болешћу, па чак и за оне који су потпуно здрави.
Али ајде да ипак прозборим коју, да не будем лијен. Дакле, мултипла склероза, сјеме јој се затрло, је аутоимуна болест која долази у више различитих облика и за сваки од њих, осим за онај најбенигнији (који је, наравно, врло риједак), заједничко је то што вам од живота прави потпуни пакао. Без предубоког уласка у техничке детаље, из одређених за сада непознатих разлога човјеков имуни систем почне да напада мијелински омотач око нерава, што доводи до широког дијапазона посљедица као што су разноразни болови, слабост, губитак или слабљење разних функција у организму итд. Неопходност коришћења штапа за ходање након одређеног броја година се подразумијева, а тежи облици воде скоро неминовно до завршавања у колицима. Што је најљепше, лијека нема. Терапије које данас постоје искључиво се заснивају на успоравању прогресије и одгађању неминовног, али њихова успјешност је врло дискутабилна. Осим оних најсмртоноснијих болешчура као што је рак овога или онога, мултипла склероза је једна од најгорих дијагноза које можете да добијете.
Џорџ Јелинек је аустралијски доктор чија мајка је имала један од тих гадних облика, што је довело и до њеног самоубиства. И он сам је двадесетак година послије тога добио исту дијагнозу, али је успио да значајно успори (заустави?) напредак болести, а како је то успио, описано је у овој књизи. У наааааааааајкраћим цртама, кључ лежи у промјени исхране, првенствено батаљењу засићених масних киселина и повећавању уноса незасићених (првенствено омега-3). У пракси ово значи потпуно елиминисање било каквих млијечних производа и меса, а редовно конзумирање рибе, морских плодова и сл. Поред тога, веома је битан довољан унос Д витамина, било преко сунца (не, није штетно), било преко суплемената. Поред тога, аутор спомиње и разноразне друге ствари као што је медитација и сл.
Ово можда звучи као некакав псеудо њу-ејџ мамбо-џамбо, али је врло далеко од тога. Као што сам рекао, аутор сам је доктор и то прилично озбиљан, уређивао је престижан медицински часопис, објављује научне радове и сл., значи није некакав шарлатан који покушава каквим магичним рецептом да вам узме паре. То се лако види и по објективности са којом описује дејство стандардних терапија које доктори преписују. Шарлатана ћете најлакше препознати по томе што презриво прича како "доктори немају појма", али овде тога нема ни од корова. Аутор сматра да је промјена начина живота најбитнија, али је потпуно свјестан да су и лијекови у неким случајевима неопходни. Данас се много истражује око МС и нове информације се стално појављују, а ова књига је написана мислим 2010, тако да вјероватно да се у међувремену појавило нешто што се у њој не спомиње, али сви актуелни лијекови из тог времена детаљно су описани и критички процијењени. Јелинек није баш велики обожавалац интерферона, али зато подржава узимање кортикостероида и глатирамера умјесто интерферона.
Што се тиче овог са исхраном, можда изгледа као веганска пропаганда, али све користи таквог начина исхране које аутор пропагира уредно су засноване на истраживањима објављеним у најпрестижнијим свјетским научним часописима, тако да без проблема све сами можете да провјерите и донесете суд. Још један показатељ озбиљности књиге (која се баш не би могла наслутити из оних сунцокрета на корицама) јесте обиман списак литературе, који заузима буквално петину књиге (то је лако измјерити на Киндлу) и има по мојој процјени бар неких хиљаду референци.
Мој коначни закључак је отприлике овакав: Прво, ако не дај Боже сами имате МС, или знате неког ко има, ову књигу МОРАТЕ да прочитате, под обавезно, без одлагања. Или да тог неког ко евентуално има МС упутите на њу. Информације одавде буквално могу да вам промијене живот (набоље) у том случају. Друго, чак и да немате никакве везе са овом опаком болешчуром и да вас боли дупе за којекакве вегане и рибоједце, опет препоручујем да књигу прочитате. Занимљива је и лако се чита, а и научићете много тога. Исто ко што узмете рецимо да читате књигу о свемиру и црним рупама, иако за живота тешко да ћете упасти у црну рупу, тако и овде можете да научите нешто (много) о једној врло актуелној и распрострањеној болести. Исто тако, иако то није примарни фокус књиге, научићете и како функционишу медицинска истраживања, студије и сл. Цавеат: кад прочитате шта засићене масне киселине раде са ћелијским мембранама у вашем тијелу, чашу млијека испред себе више никад нећете посматрати на исти начин.

A scientific book that I started AND finished in a little more than one week, that’s how fascinating I found this one to be!
Dr. Jelinek’s 7 step recovery program is deep in both scientific research and personal experience, making it very approachable. I appreciate that both “how” and “why” reasoning is provided for each recovery tool, thus demonstrating its importance and also how to incorporate the tool into the recovery path.
Prior to reading this book, I had started incorporating some tools into my MS recovery lifestyle. Dr. Jelinek helped me feel more empowered to implement the remaining tools. Furthermore, part of my recovery is now to help prevent my children from getting MS. As Jelinek states, “... it is a total change of life, for life.”

Information is power, and this book gave me that. A valuable source of insights for anyone who gets the spirit-crushing diagnosis, but also for others seeking a healthy lifestyle!

An interesting read with some helpful tips I will adopt in my everyday life.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Dr. Jelinek bases the book on us his own personal experience with MS as well as providing us with an excellent medical resource on this debilitating auto immune disease that strikes so many people of all ages. The book focus in more on the aspect of prevention and slowing of the disease process. His relationship with his Mother, who also lived and died from MS was very touching. He gives us a very personal and up close view of that struggle, which motivated him to write this book. He was diagnosed shortly after she died, while completing his medical residency. I am glad he found the courage to include the mind/body aspect of patient care and healing. So much of modern medicine overlooks the patient. It's a controversial subject but it is very important for healing. He also goes into detail about evidenced based research and explains how research is formulated and published. He doesn't leave out the relationship between drug companies and profits, which is critical in our understanding of how treatment regimes are supported and funded. The idea diet plays a large role in preventing MS from progressing is interesting, although it does contradicts some of my own beliefs about the role of fat in our diet. The results of these studies speak for themselves. I would recommend this book for anyone who has MS.

This book is amazing and life changing! It offers hope to people with MS!
I read the earlier edition a year and a half ago, but I'm so glad I read this version published in 2016--more is being learned about MS all the time, and this book contains all the latest research on Multiple Sclerosis.
People with MS often think there are doomed and there is nothing they can do. Which is absolutely false. I have been living the diet part of OMS for 3 years, and the rest of the lifestyle for about 2 years, and most of the time, I am well. And the principles from this lifestyle have benefited my life in so many other ways. If you know someone with MS, this is a must read. As is the book "Recovering from Multiple Sclerosis: Real Life Stories of Hope and Inspiration" https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
I also love that this book includes information for families on prevention.

This second edition is an entirely different book from the 2010 edition and is a MUST-READ for anyone dealing with MS. Jelinek is an Australian physician with MS and his program, based on a very thorough review of the medical literature and research on the subject, is light years ahead of anything here in North America. I am appalled when I continue to encounter physicians and MS professionals who have never heard of his program or the research upon which it is based. No big money here for the pharmaceutical companies perhaps? The OMS program has caught on like wildfire with PwMS from Australia/New Zealand and Britain but has yet to become known here except by determined researchers. Highly recommended.

A positive can do read that provokes your internal cynic and leaves you thinking I should do this! Nothing to lose everything to gain. A powerful well evidenced book that espouses proactive approach to managing MS that will genuinely be life changing.

A must read for anyone touched by MS.

George is not just a doctor, he is a doctor with MS. This makes the entire writing very personal and there`s a legit desire to help others with MS or at risk of it. My mum has MS, so I am at risk.
I picked it up because the title is a bold claim but it still had pretty good ratings. What I loved most is that he has written everything from a patient`s point of view and not from a doctor`s, authority`s or a pharma company`s point of view.
Now that I have read it, I am not fully convinced that it is as easy as George makes it look but one has nothing to lose from trying the diet, sunlight & exercise which is the centrepiece of this book. Of course he acknowledges aggressive forms of MS and that many would have to complement with medicine where things are often blurry. The topic on viruses and toxic drugs is very scary. But lifestyle remains his focus. I find it hard to believe the outcomes once one has the disease. But to prevent it, I mostly agree with him of lifestyle changes he proposes (as it is with many diseases).
I don`t like how he calls MS a western disease and has no data from any eastern countries. Several eastern countries don`t document things well when compared to the West. So I don`t think it is fair to assume that MS is a western disease. I don`t agree that it is a new disease since industrialization. As he argues it is the lifestyle change that brought about MS, I have to say that Aristocrats before industrialization had a similar lifestyle. Sure, there weren`t many.
He has an incredibly optimistic outlook for someone with MS and it is wonderful to read from such a point of view. He does provide data and statistics and is not afraid to disagree with norms, neurologists, pharma companies or authorities. I found it fantastic how he proposes MS recovery (10 year relapse free) similar to cancer recovery (5 year cancer free).
I am glad I read it now and not 10 years ago when I wasn`t so open minded even though I thought I clearly was. What this means is I did not cringe when I read about spirituality but saw it from a place if I would have a neurodegenerative disease like MS.

I’ve been living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) for quite some time, and for years, I struggled to find lasting relief or stability. While medications helped manage some symptoms, the flare ups, fatigue, and neurological discomfort always returned sometimes worse than before. It left me feeling drained, uncertain, and emotionally overwhelmed.Out of a mix of hope and hesitation, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. To be honest, I was skeptical at first. But around the four-month mark, I started noticing real changes.
My energy levels improved.The tingling and numbness became less frequent
My mobility and mental clarity felt more stable and consistent
It wasn’t a quick fix, but the progress was steady and most importantly, lasting.
For the first time in years, I feel like I have control over my body and my life again. I can join conversations without struggling to find the right words, go for walks without the same fear of imbalance, and enjoy everyday activities with a renewed sense of hope.The physical, emotional, and mental impact has been truly life changing.If you’re considering natural options for managing MS, I genuinely encourage you to explore what NaturePath Herbal Clinic has to offer. It’s been a transformative experience for me, and I’m deeply grateful I gave it a chance.

I was living with MS for years before being officially diagnosed in 2021. I got annual MRIs, and I did not take any meds due to side effects. I had one flare up in 2021. My legs decided to a break and I was numb from the waist down. I decided to try MS-4 from Uine Health Centre. The numbness and Muscle spasms went away after a couple of weeks, but it took almost 3 months to walk properly without a cane. In June, it will be four years without incident, and I am extremely happy that I made the decision to not take any meds and went for the MS-4 formula even though my neurologist got upset and one told me to quit my job because I will be disabled. Well, I am not disabled, I still refuse to take those meds, and I am doing just fine. Believe in yourself and go with your instincts. Doctors don't know it all. I’m surprised a lot of people with MS haven’t heard of the MS-4 protocol, I got the treatment from uinehealthcentre. com I am absolutely confident that this protocol offers a viable solution. I hope you find it helpful.

I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago. For over two years, I relied on Levodopa and several other medications, but unfortunately, the symptoms kept getting worse. The tremors became more noticeable, and my balance and mobility started to decline quickly. Last year, out of desperation and hope, I decided to try an herbal treatment program from NaturePath Herbal Clinic. Honestly, I was skeptical at first, but within a few months of starting the treatment, I began to notice real changes. My movements became smoother, the tremors subsided, and I felt steadier on my feet. Incredibly, I also regained much of my energy and confidence. It’s been a life-changing experience I feel more like myself again, better than I’ve felt in years.If you or a loved one is struggling with Parkinson’s disease, I truly recommend looking into their natural approach.

Overcoming Multiple Sclerosis: An Evidence-Based Guide to Recovery by George Jelinek is a thorough and hopeful resource for people living with MS. Drawing on scientific research and personal experience, Jelinek outlines a comprehensive seven-step program focused on lifestyle changes—diet, exercise, vitamin D, stress reduction, and mindfulness—alongside conventional medical treatment. The book’s strength lies in its balance of optimism and evidence, offering readers practical tools to take control of their health. While the writing can be dense and technical at times, and some lifestyle claims rely on emerging rather than definitive research, the overall message is empowering. It encourages readers to see recovery not as a miracle but as an achievable, ongoing process grounded in informed self-care and resilience.

September 30, 2019I don’t have MS but was reading because I had/have guillain barre syndrome, which is too rare to have much known about it, and MS is the closest “match” to a better-understood condition.
This book certainly provides food for thought, and the section on the type of person more likely to get an autoimmune illness hit home for me. I’m not willing to give up dairy just yet, and meditation for neurological pain management has been mostly useless for me, but since reading this book I admit I’ve been working in my backyard in my underwear and jogging in tiny shorts to get more vitamin D!
I also know it’s been transformative for others with MS and I appreciate the transparency summary of evidence for how to reduce the risk of relapses.

The doctors don’t have answers. I have relapse remitting MS- I don’t take any medications for MS because I found they made me worse. When on the drug I became blind and paralyzed every 4 months like clockwork … I’d get better after a month or two and the cycle continued for years until I stopped taking their medications. And started on herbal tincture from Health Herbs Clinic I have not been paralyzed or blind since. I am a “walking miracle” because I barely suffer symptoms anymore. Natural Medicines, meditations and Ayurvedic therapies from Health Herbs Clinic has helped me completely reverse my MS, I live a more productive life. Thank you for giving those of us with Multiple sclerosis a new hope. Google healthherbsclinic . com

I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis when I was 52 years old 4 years ago. The Bafiertam did very little to help me. The medical team did even less. My decline was rapid and devastating. It was muscle weakness at first, then my hands and tremors. Last year, a family friend told us about Natural Herbs Centre and their successful MS Ayurveda TREATMENT, we visited their website natural herbs centre. com and ordered their Multiple Sclerosis Ayurveda protocol, i am happy to report the treatment effectively treated and reversed my Multiple Sclerosis, most of my symptoms stopped, I’m able to walk and my writing is becoming great, sleep well and exercise regularly. I’m active now, I can personally vouch for these remedy but you would probably need to decide what works best for you🧡.

Sending you prayers, I was diagnosed in 2010 and seemed to go down hill quickly. In six years I could no longer work and had real problems with balance and joint pain. Brain fog was really bad sometimes. I took rebif and had a lot of problems and had to quit. I have been on techfadera (not spelled right) for a few years and have several side effects. I felt lost and decided to quit my meds due to side effects. Our care provider introduced me to Ayurvedic treatment. I had a total decline of all symptoms including vision problems, numbness and others. Sometimes, i totally forget i ever had MS. Visit Natural Herbs Centre web-site natural herbs centre. com. I am very pleased with this treatment. I eat well, sleep well and exercise regularly. God bless all MS Warriors

February 4, 2026My dad’s journey with Multiple Sclerosis changed when his caregiver discovered EarthCure Herbal Clinic (www . earthcureherbalclinic . com) with Dr. Madida Sam online. After reading countless testimonials from people who had benefited from his natural treatment protocols, we decided to give it a try. The experience was truly life-changing. My dad has seen a complete turnaround in his MS symptoms, and I am beyond grateful for this breakthrough.

Consistent use of phrases like “studies show that..” but no actual reference to the studies themselves or even their names or years in addition to no footnotes. I need receipts for claims. Gets a star for having generalized good advice for overall healthy living and adaptations for things like exercise based on condition.

I strongly recommend it to people who are newly diagnosed or have already MS, or to anyone who has a close one with MS. It's evidence-based with a lot of charts, results from studies etc. Very motivating and encouraging.
