Amazing what potential cures/controlls could be found just by looking back in the past and studying why certain groups of people contract MS and others appear to either have little risk or can manage it !
The Canadian Indians used to ingest a mixture of crushed Beaver skulls and herbs, now we know that Beaver is high in aurelmyelin (sp?) which provides a coating to reduce erosion in the myelin sheath.
I doubt there will be a cure for a very long time as the gene cluster that contains MS looks like an elusive target, but to manage the disease is an entirely different prospect and there is so much hope in that direction.
I have 2 close friends with MS and a few acquaintances, its a wretched disease but the prospects for managing it are looking brighter,
