    Great information!
    Wonderful show, very informative and lots of really interesting and well respected guests.
  • cm102019
    Well done!
    Living Well with MS hits the ball out of the park in featuring inspirational, real-life stories. Others with MS, as well as family members and friends could benefit from listening and understanding. In particular, I enjoyed hearing Shari Short’s unique journey. It was a fantastic interview with in depth questions.
  • Rb165405
    Accessible and informative
    Living Well with Multiple Sclerosis offers hope and true stories of recovery from professionals and people with MS who are following the OMS recovery program. I always learn something new and feel part of a movement to self-manage autoimmunity through lifestyle choices.

    Truth
    Love hearing true facts from Liz!
  • mrbonesy
    Hope it gets more complex
    I gave this five stars because everyone with MS should be listening to it. That said, I wish episodes were more complex, instead just mostly recapping what’s in the book or on the website. Hope it gets more complex and interesting as it goes along. Thanks for this podcast!
  • eudaemonia
    great information, just too short!
    I love this podcast and as a follower and huge supporter of OMS, I must say the only downside is that I find the episodes to be too short. Also, I wish that the episodes would be weekly. I really want to get into the routine of listening on a regular basis...Other than that great show + great mission. If you have MS or are newly diagnosed definitely subscribe. Evidence based recommendations at their best.
