    expert reaction dietary fish intake linked to slowed disability progression in MS

    A study published in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry looks at fish intake and slowed disability progress in Multiple Sclerosis (MS).



    Dr Emma Gray, Director of Research at the MS Society, said:

    “This study builds on previous research that suggests adopting a healthy diet could improve quality of life and may reduce disability progression among people with multiple sclerosis. However, we’d like to see further research to confirm the findings, and understand what is going on in the body to produce these benefits. Additional factors like the impact of other dietary choices and socioeconomic status could also be taken into account. Over 150,000 people live with MS in the UK and due to the unpredictability of the condition no ‘one’ diet works for all – it’s a personal choice. Ultimately a healthy balanced diet can help people with MS to stay in the best health possible and guard against other issues, like heart disease and strokes.”

    Yet inside there is this perpetual nagging doubt;
    the feeling we are possessed by a 'subtle lack of togetherness''.

    Thank you for this important information. New diets keep coming along, and at first there is some enthusiasm about them, and then the people who study these matters always announce that there is no diet that is known to help MS--BUT eating a well-balanced diet with the right nutrients in it is highly recommended.

    If anyone wants to look at the abstract of the study, here it is:

      Thanks Tim! I also read thus in MedPage. I hope Omega 3 works in the same way.
