Many have made suggestions to Stuart that exercise alone can beat MS
Stuart’s response: I
do not think we should claim that exercise alone will beat the disease but it
would be a great complementary agent along with using with an existing Mainstream MS medication.

I agree 100% with Stu on a complimentary approach. Exercise
and even diet, although many claim “miracles”, is NOT a cure. We have
to be proactive and some need MS meds to help while others don’t. I am very
leery of the stories of how people are “healed” by a Paleo diet or
some form of workout. That’s nonsense or everyone would be cured!! I believe
that a lifestyle of fitness, health and nutrition is a big part of battling MS
and should be incorporated in every MSer’s life even from a wheelchair. But I
NEVER tell anyone not to take meds unless they make that choice or do so with
their doctor. – Written by David Lyons, Founder of MS

There is thought to bring this Fitness Challenge to South Florida, if there are enough people interested in participating. First, we would have this take place in Palm Beach County and then maybe Broward County if the reception is warm — Stu’s Views
So, a Question for those affected by MS and living in South Florida:
What are your thoughts for the MS Fitness Challenge?
