Being an advocate for the multiple sclerosis community means sharing information to help you stay aware of trending topics and credible information that can help you make informed decisions about your health. By sharing this information I hope to simplify and empower you on your MS journey.

Two organizations recently reached out to me about their new initiatives that I thought you'd like to know about.

NATIONAL MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS SOCIETY (nmss.org)

No one plans on being met with a life-changing diagnosis like MS – but whether you’re newly diagnosed or not, we can all use a little extra support. Our friends at the National MS Society put together a wonderful new resource called “Now What? Resources to Keep You Moving Forward with MS” and you can download it for free today.

From wellness to community to understanding symptoms, this guide is great for those with MS and those supporting loved ones with MS. As the NMSS website explains:

"Whether you were recently diagnosed or are processing a shift in your disease progression, you came to the right place. With you in mind, we created Now What? Resources to Keep You Moving Forward with MS. It's your introduction to the top resources and information from the National MS Society – news you can use to keep moving forward.

There's even more to discover on our website. This guide, however, offers the latest and most relevant information about MS.

There's a new CBD landing page and content hub we've built at Healthline. As cannabidiol (CBD) becomes a highly discussed product touting benefits across the board, especially for those suffering from chronic illnesses, we wanted to create an extensive resource for our audience to learn about what research has proven and what we still need more information on about CBD benefits. Specifically, research on how CBD can help autoimmune disease with articles covering topics such as how human studies have found that a combination of CBD and THC is effective in treating pain related to multiple sclerosis and arthritis.

CBD is helping to change lives, so we wanted to answer all our readers' questions. We hope you'll find the landing page a useful resource. Click HERE to find out more!
