MS and mercury poisoning is something that appears now and again and needs to be taken seriously. The substances in the blood harmful to nerves are kept separate by a special filtering layer in the walls of blood vessels called the endothelium. This is extremely important in the brain where the filter mechanism is known as the blood brain barrier.

Any number of life events can cause this barrier to be breached, including stress, tiredness, fever, emotional upset, heat, injury and eating too much fatty foods. This allows chemicals from the blood which are poisonous to the nervous system into the brain where they can cause terrible.

PUFA’s play a significant role in MS nutrition and in the mending of nerves and nerve tissue as well as blood health and brain function.
