The purpose of this research is to explore the topic of food with individual’s diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and investigate what factors might influence their experience with food. This project will add to the research to help identify factors that health professionals may need to consider for MS management. This research has already consulted with health professionals and will now utilise the opinions of persons like yourself to guide the development of resources for persons living with MS.
Participants who have been diagnosed with MS by a neurologist in the last 6 months will be eligible. Participants must be adults (18+ years) and able to communicate using the English language or have a caregiver who can communicate on their behalf.
