About
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if following a specific low fat diet will improve the brain damage as seen by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and to decrease the progression of multiple sclerosis (MS) as evidenced by clinical evaluation and symptoms.
Full description
This research project has significance for its potential to develop a new therapeutic approach to MS. Current treatments in MS include disease modifying therapies such as human recombinant interferon beta, glatiramer acetate and natalizumab. However, these are only partially effective, cannot be taken orally, have side-effects and are very expensive. Developing treatment that can be combined with current disease modifying agent remains an important goal for improving the care of people with MS.
