A member asked:

I have ms. i still work out using low impact cardio machines. i do between 75 and 85 minutes 5 to 6 days a week. is this too much?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily: It is accepted that exercise can positively affect the immune system in ms. If your exercise does not substantially over-heat your body, it is likely of great benefit. Continue to stay fit, eat low fat items, manage stress, supplement vit d, and take your dmt's, and you should do well!
