Bob Cafaro

Bob Cafaro has a fascinating story! He experienced reversal of Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a debilitating autoimmune condition. What did he do? A combination of Whole Food Plant-Based (raw vegan, in fact), hydration, yoga, meditation, exercise, positive affirmations (both visual and verbal) and deriving inspiration from those who had done the impossible! Basically, he adopted all Six Pillars of Lifestyle Medicine! I find his personal story remarkable!
