Increased Vitamin D May Protect Against Multiple Sclerosis
Higher levels of vitamin D in the body may reduce the risk of developing the neurological disease multiple sclerosis by as much as 62 percent, Harvard researchers report.
Looking at 257 US military personnel with the disease and 51 healthy controls, the researchers reported that, for every 50-nmol/L (nanomoles per litre) increase in 25-hydroxyvitamin D the associated risk of MS decreased by 41 percent for white/non-Hispanics.
In the current issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, lead author Kassandra Munger noted that the inverse association with multiple sclerosis risk was particularly strong for high 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in younger people.
According to the authors, multiple sclerosis (MS) is among the most common neurological diseases in young adults, affecting 350,000 individuals in the United States and 2 million worldwide

This
Week's Conference Call
Conference Calls Schedule
Many thanks to our last conference call speaker, Joanne Conaway, who joined the call to talk about enzymes and their important dynamic with our bodies.
Joanne discussed the importance of proper digestion for the benefit of good health. Enzymes support every function in our entire body. Digestive enzymes break down the food we eat so it can be used as a source of energy. Cells rely on raw materials provided to the body by digestive enzymes. Joanne has found that enzymes are the key to supporting and maintaining gastrointestinal health. She believes that "you are what you digest" and that if there were not enzymes, it would be impossible for humans, animals and plants to live!
The Bio~Lumin Essense line of enzymatic and probiotic products are formulated in specific ways to contribute to an optimal gastrointestinal cycle.
Tonight, Dr. Wallach will join the call to talk about the 90 essential nutrients. This will be a great opportunity to ask any questions you may have - don't miss this call!
Be sure to join us this and every Thursday evening at 5:00 PM Pacific, followed by The Leadership Training Call with Sandy Elsberg at 6:00 PM Pacific.
