Sharing my musings while living with Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS)! Come on this journey with me…
Biocompatibility Testing: Metals and Dental Materials
I finally got around to the biocompatibility testing I spoke about in my last dental update. The results are in ya'll. But first of all, let me catch you up to speed. Update We left off after I had both implants pulled around September 2021. At the time, I was...
Exciting Changes In MS Research On Nutrition
MS research on nutrition is getting a facelift, y'all!!! You would not believe what happened just a week after my last blog post titled "Is Keto A Trigger For Vegans?" An article was published in UVAToday which supports the ketogenic diet for MS. It is titled...
Is Keto a Trigger Word for Vegans?
After a certain conversation in the not-so-distant past, I'm triggered by the word Keto now! I don't know if I will ever use the word again. I'll just say K instead. The exchange was unsettling at first, which later became interesting to me. Get a drink, and take a...
Yay Or Nay to New Year Resolutions?
New year resolutions are obsolete to me, as I have not had any in more than a decade.
Why? Let me explain.
I realized that all it was for the most part, was a long list of things, that got stockpiled till January 1st, then we tried to implement them all at once, which usually wasn’t very successful. This was because that model of meaningful change, was really, just a recipe for disaster.
A Real Dental Debacle!
Hi! How're we doing? Well, how about this for an update on my oral adventures? Would you believe that the second dental implant didn't make it either? After the course of antibiotics, I felt good for about a week. Then I started to feel it again, the twinges in my...
Dental Implants, Trigeminal Neuralgia, and Chronic Pain
Dental Care In Multiple Sclerosis/ Chronic Illness In general, I've had quite the time with my mouth in recent years, since my Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis. My gums stayed inflamed. We could not tell if it was the MS, or my medications, some of which do dry out my...
A Little About Me
I am Dr. Folake Taylor, and I live with Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis PPMS. After 15 years in internal medicine primary care, while battling disability/ PPMS for the last 7 of the 15, I found myself diving deeper into holistic health for answers. Now I’m turning my lemons into lemonade. I refuse to allow physical and cognitive disability to stop me, from fulfilling my destiny of using my voice to benefit the world with my knowledge, which I did prior to my illness. Sharing what I have learned and am still learning about the body’s ability to heal itself, which is quite different from what I learned in medical school, is now my mission. I created an online program for MS recovery called MS Mastery™, and I will continue to take you along with me as the daily journey continues.

Lastly, check with your doctor before implementing anything new. I am NOT your doctor, though I am a doctor.
