The only correlate to disability and disease cessation is the maintaining of gray matter. And not one of these drug companies has proven their products do this. But we do know that exercise and other lifestyle modifications can not only maintain, but increase gray matter structures. Keep getting the word out there.

Giovannoni is strongly opposed to CCSVI saying there is "no evidence" for it, he has blinders on. Yes, it is ironic that he is chairing the "MS Brain Health". <br />Flohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03833579876730270155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2238276534410758837.post-87238193621055698002016-08-21T04:45:38.535-07:002016-08-21T04:45:38.535-07:00Joan you are correct in saying these words .O...Joan you are correct in saying these words .One mention of the #HeartBrainConnection is not enough. #ECTRIMS16. <br />Lynnie Healhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13932647784833428210noreply@blogger.com
