====================================
Multiple Sclerosis is Increasing: is it because of the Diet unification between humans??
Well, I wanted this thread to be a pointing to M.S being a rising disease worldwide:

Quote:Worldwide, but especially in the West, the incidence of autoimmune disease is increasing, a trend accompanied by the development of the processed food and food additives industries. This steady rise in autoimmunity is also seen in MS, a debilitating disease whose cause is still not fully known, but is suspected to be an interaction of genetic, immunologic and environmental factors.
As modern diet is mostly composed of goods provided by big companies dominating the food market from East to West; the food we get as Middle Eastern people is the same modern brand, made by the same name supplying the rest of the world.
M.S was always thought to be a European disease that affects Europe only, but as the time progressed and news could be shared more easily, it was also proved the disease exists in places like the Middle East, and rising too.
Quote:Researchers investigated the correlation between autoimmunity and industrial food additives, used in processed foods to improve such things as taste, smell, texture, and shelf life. They found that the additives glucose (sugars), sodium (salt), fat solvents (emulsifiers), organic acids, gluten, microbial enzyme transglutaminase, and nanometric particles all weakened tight junctions, leading to a more permeable intestinal mucosa, a key factor in autoimmunity. With all the information gathered on this subject, researchers recommend that autoimmune disease patients, and their family members, avoid processed foods as much as possible.
So it is not a regional problem as much as it is a "diet problem". I can bet all M.S patients had an imbalanced diet of some sort for a long time, and genetics completed the rest: writing "M.S" on the patient's health.
I would really like to ask: if the case is really like that -and it is-; this is not based on a theory but on findings; why are the big food companies are not ordered to follow regulations that would make better food, empty of additives ?
I suggest to all M.S patients to look more into their diets, sometimes it's better of a treatment.
