New to MS
Posted: Mon Sep 19, 2011 8:26 am
So im pretty new to MS (just starting my medication) and have lots of questions I am wondering if you can answer or give me guidance.
A little history
im 26
190 lbs 5 10
Im a very active person, love sports and working out.
I love to lift weights and try to make my self stronger, but ever since I got MS I just have lost muscle and have gotten fat
I was taking supplements when I work out and want to start taking them again. I just want to make sure theses supplements are safe.
Protein shakes
multi vitamin (heard I need one with no iron)
fish oil
creatine
My Dr said I need to not work my self too hard. I normally am sweating and feel like im ready to die when im done but he said I need to just slow down and maybe do 2 20-30 mins workout sessions in place of my 1 hr session I normally do.
I also would like to go back on a diet. I used to do a diet called Keto but I heard on MS you need a low fat high fiber which was not what I was on before.
Any help is great! Thanks
