Dr. Horwitz:
Now we have known that vitamin D levels – low vitamin D is associated with multiple sclerosis and they have just done large-scale studies that show that over time people with very low levels of vitamin D are at a much, much higher risk of developing MS, and so the question is, “By supplementing early in life can we prevent it?” Those studies will take years and years to do but until then it’s a very safe intervention so we recommend it.
