Knowing where our health may be at risk, it makes sense to check out the relevant genes. Multiple sclerosis is actually quite a rare complaint. This autoimmune disease can be countered with preventive medicine to ensure that it does not arise in the first place. But such measures makes sense only if you know that you have a genetic predisposition for it.
Step 1 is, as usual, to undergo a genetic test. Step 2 (if you find that you really are at risk) is to take preventive action. The best way of stopping multiple sclerosis is with vitamin D3.
A major research project was carried out involving more than seven million members of the U.S. armed forces. The results were conclusive: where individuals have a predisposition to multiple sclerosis but maintain good or very good vitamin D3 levels, the disease is almost completely held at bay. In 80% of all participants who had very low vitamin D3 levels and a predisposition for multiple sclerosis, the disease set in. Consequently, the first thing to do is find out if you have a predisposition for the disease. If so, you will then need to monitor and adjust your vitamin D3 level on a regular basis. If the level is found to be low, there are ways of stimulating the body’s own production of vitamin D3 and of compensating in an emergency by means of a vitamin supplement.
