So if you have a certain gene it increases your likely hood to develop Multiple Sclerosis. Multiple Sclerosis is a disease in which your body attack the myelin sheath that cover the nerve cells. When this happens it interferes with the nerve impulses that travel through your body. Researchers think this gene has a certain element that prevents Vitamin D from being used properly in the body. Normally if the body finds something foreign it attacks the foreign invader. So this may be the reason why the myelin sheath is being attacked. Post what you think of this article. I found it to be very interesting.
