High Levels Of Vitamin D In Body May Decrease Risk Of Multiple Sclerosis 

High Levels Of Vitamin D In Body May Decrease Risk Of Multiple Sclerosis: "The possibility that vitamin D could help protect people from developing multiple sclerosis (MS) has been posited by researchers in recent decades, but evidence to support that link has been scant. In the first large-scale, prospective study to investigate the relationship between vitamin D levels and MS, researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) have found an association between higher levels of vitamin D in the body and a lower risk of MS. The study appears in the December 20, 2006, issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association."
