Neurons. Immune systems. MRIs. Weed gummies? One of the greats in neurology, Dr. Aaron Boster, takes time to chat all about Multiple Sclerosis, a neurological autoimmune disease close to our hearts. Alie’s mom, your grammapod a.k.a. Fancy Nancy, was diagnosed with MS over two decades ago, and this episode explores in depth the factors that can cause MS, therapies that do – and don’t –  show promise, how diet, exercise and mindfulness actually can help folks who have MS, the oftentimes agonizing journey to a diagnosis, and advice for those who’ve MS for a while – or are newly in the community. Also: yeah, weed. Visit the <a href="https://bosterms.com/" target="_blank">Boster Center for Multiple Sclerosis</a> and follow Dr. Boster on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/AaronBosterMD" target="_blank">YouTube</a>A donation went to <a href="https://msviewsandnews.org/" target="_blank">MS Views and News</a><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/neuropathoimmunology">More episode sources and links</a>Other episodes you may enjoy: <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/disabilitysociology">Disability Sociology (DISABILITY PRIDE)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/diabetology">Diabetology (BLOOD SUGAR)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/postviralepidemiology">Post-Viral Epidemiology (LONG COVID)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/dolorology">Dolorology (PAIN)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/salugenology">Salugenology (WHY HUMANS REQUIRE HOBBIES)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/psychedeliology">Psychedeliology (HALLUCINOGENS)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/cardiology">Cardiology (THE HEART)</a>, <a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies/somnology">Somnology (SLEEP)</a><a href="https://www.alieward.com/ologies-by-topic">400+ Ologies episodes sorted by topic</a><a href="https://pod.link/1746567248">Smologies (short, classroom-safe) episodes</a><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-sponsors">Sponsors of Ologies</a><a href="https://alieward.com/ologies-extras">Transcripts and bleeped episodes</a><a href="https://www.patreon.com/ologies" target="_blank">Become a patron of Ologies</a> for as little as a buck a month<a href="https://www.ologiesmerch.com/" target="_blank">OlogiesMerch.com</a> has hats, shirts, hoodies, totes!Follow Ologies on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ologies" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/ologies.bsky.social" target="_blank">Bluesky</a>Follow Alie Ward on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alieward" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@alie_ologies" target="_blank">TikTok</a>Editing by Mercedes Maitland of <a href="http://maitlandaudio.com/" target="_blank">Maitland Audio Productions</a> and <a href="https://www.jecmusic.com/" target="_blank">Jake Chaffee</a>Managing Director: Susan HaleScheduling Producer: Noel DilworthTranscripts by Aveline Malek Website by <a href="https://www.kellyrdwyer.com/photo" target="_blank">Kelly R.
