Awesome write up, I've only made it about 1/4 the way through. It's a huge article and wonderfully approachable. Loved the image of the speed of signal transfer with and without mylin sheath and how why that causes the issues that MS patients have (it's under note 13) [0]. A friend has MS and it's great to be able to better understand the condition. > Multiple sclerosis is caused by a glitch in the body’s immune system that causes it to destroy the myelin sheaths of neurons, which as you can see from the GIF below, would seriously disrupt the body’s ability to communicate with itself. ALD, the disease in Lorenzo’s Oil, is also caused by myelin being destroyed.
