MS patients experience better treatment outcomes when they actively participate in their own care. And that requires high health literacy. One of my guests is health literacy expert Dr. Kalina Sanders and we're talking about how being an informed patient can have a significant impact on the healthcare you receive.    A well-rounded MS treatment plan will include wellness practices like making smart food choices and adding exercise to your routine. But making changes to our health behaviors is challenging for everyone -- and maybe more challenging if you're already trying to manage a chronic illness like MS. My second guest is wellness coach Kate Costello and we're talking about how changing your health behaviors can be a lot easier when you have someone supporting you every step of the way.     We're also talking about the new guidelines for diagnosing and treating MS in Canada. We'll tell you about a 10-year study that shows that when motor skills decline, walking takes the first hit. Find out where to apply for the CAN-DO MS two-day Take Charge program for young adults and their support partners. And we'll tell you how (and why!) to share your voice about MS advocacy issues.      We have a lot to talk about! Are you ready for RealTalk MS??!
