posting this, NOT for the MSMedicine Science here... but to illustrate, as I have tried to do over the years, how nutrition affects our genes.

The first evidence of how vitamin D deficiency and genetics interact to increase the risk of multiple sclerosis has been reported by researchers.

A UK and Canadian team found that vitamin D helps to control a gene known to increase MS risk, the PLoS Genetics journal reports.

It suggests that vitamin D supplements taken during pregnancy and early in life could prevent the disease.

More than 85,000 people in the UK are thought to suffer from MS.

The condition, results from the loss of nerve fibres and their protective myelin sheath in the brain and spinal cord, causing neurological damage.

the rest... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7871598.stm


choose your food and lifestyle wisely... BTW - I disagree with supplementation for the most part unless absolutely necessary.
