Their Story Submitted August, 1998:

Dear Friends,

I have had MS for 51 years, known years. I am 71 and apart

from bad balance, stiff legs and having sexual disfunction I am fine.

I have survived by first of all living on the German diet of the late

Dr Josef Evers for 24 years and then the basically gluten-free diet of

Roger Macdougall for another 24 years. The latter diet being a far

easier one to live on.

Both these diets have kept me in a stable condition for most of these

years. Indeed I would have been a lot better if I had first not been

involved in a car crash on the M1 in the UK which stiffened my left leg

and been the subject of injections of a drug called Mebadin which

stiffened my right leg.

I have no doubt in my mind that the right diet can halt the downward

slide of MS. I am the proof. It is not the cure but it certainly can

prevent further incursions on the physical side.

What is bad for MS? Well, in my opinion, anything from the pig, animal

fats, gluten (which covers a lot of foods), just to mention a few.

Never over-tire yourself is vital.

I just want to say that diet, the right diet, can work wonders. Oh yes,

one other thing. I swear by massage. If a river gets blocked then the

water wont flow and so it is with the human blood stream and this is

where massage allows the body to fully function.

best wishes to all.

Greetings Curtis. A few days ago I sent you a little paragraph on my MS

and the stability I have gained over 51 years with the disease on two

specific diets. Unfortunately I cannot find your column on the Internet.

Where do I find it?

I was an Artillery Lieutenant at 20 in the UK at which time I had

started with MS without realising it. On demob I started at Engineering

College in London with ever increasing effects of MS to deal with. I

wont bore you with the on-going battle that I had with it Suffice to say

that I passed my Finals as an Electrical and Mechanical Engineer.I also

became a Detail Draftsman and a Research Engineer and so much more in

the UK. In 1974 I came back to Australia with my dear wife who was to

die in 1985 of Cancer. I walked and had walked with sticks for many

years with no deterioration in my health due to the diets I detailed in

my last letter. My wife talked me into writing the year before she died

and so I wrote, in total over 12 years twelve books. My niece who works

for Kim Beazley and John Howard in Canberra is now tring to get

Publishers in the US interested.

But the point of this letter is to show that diet can help stabilise

a lot of illnesses including MS. I have proved it.

Best wishes, Alan E.W.Gray.
