Any MS diets?

Does anyone follow/recommend any sort of special anti-inflammatory diet for those with MS? I'm pretty healthy don't drink, don't smoke and practice very low impact yoga. I just wondered if anyone on here swears by a specific diet. Thank you x #diet #workandplay #nystagmus #tremor #yoga
