No joke. Each of the items in the following list has been seriously posited and studied.
- Epstein-Barr virus.
- Lack of Vitamin D.
- Milk from cows.
- Lack of milk from cows.
- Asperteme.
- Cigarette smoking.
- Military service in Iraq.
- Northern European ancestry.
- Herpes Simplex virus.
- Childhood vaccinations.
- Emotional trauma.
- Air pollution.
- Employment in the healthcare field.
Things that pretty surely do not cause MS (my own presumptions):
- Masturbation.
- Fruit.
- Methamphetamine.
- Transcendental meditation.
- Kafka novels.
More fruit please!
I would like to see those studies. My personal gut feeling about it all is that perhaps MS is much like autism in that there probably isn't one cause for everyone. There are probably multiple factors and also different forms of MS. This is just my personal speculation and I have no proof.
Who knows what research will show in years to come.
Fruit is always good ... didn't your mother tell you that?
lol My mother fried everything or it came out of a can. I gew up thinking marachino cherries was a fruit because it was in fruit cocktail.
