Update: Risk Factors | Multiple Sclerosis Discovery Forum

American Academy of Neurology meeting report
SAN DIEGO—Life in the Western world has changed dramatically over the past 50 years. We spend more time indoors, eat more processed foods, have children later, and, unfortunately, fall prey to more autoimmune diseases than ever before. Could the changes in our lifestyle be contributing to the higher disease rate? At last month’s meeting of the American Academy of Neurology, researchers presented work that provided an update on risk factors for MS and indicated how these risk factors might help inform future therapies for MS.
