The presumed cause of Multiple Sclerosis(MS), is multi-factorial, including: genetics, infectious agents and environmental exposure. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society(NMSS) recommends a low-fat, high fiber diet for the general population.

Currently MS is officially incurable, but implementing nutritional strategies will make you healthier and may help prevent MS.

MS

MS is more prevalent in higher latitudes, but there are cultures that are exceptions. American Eskimos have a low prevalence of MS. Coastal Norway has a 75 percent lower MS incidence rate than inland Norway, which is along the same latitude. The main environmental difference in the low prevalence cultures is their high consumption of fish, which is loaded with omega-3 fatty acids and Vitamin D.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Abnormal inflammation is the root of accelerated aging and almost all chronic diseases including MS. Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish have strong anti-inflammatory qualities, while omega-6 fatty acids found in domestic animal meats increase inflammation. Your can balance your body’s inflammation by consuming more salmon, mackerel, herring and sardines, and less beef and pork.
