"April 28, 2009 (Seattle) -- High doses of vitamin D dramatically cut the relapse rate in people with multiple sclerosis, a study shows. Sixteen percent of 25 people with multiple sclerosis (MS) given an average of 14,000 international units (IU) of vitamin D a day for a year suffered relapses, says Jodie Burton, MD, a neurologist at the University of Toronto. In contrast, close to 40% of 24 MS patients who took an average of 1,000 IU a day -- the amount recommended by many MS specialists -- relapsed, she says. Also, people taking high-dose vitamin D suffered 41% fewer relapses than the year before the study began, compared with 17% of those taking typical doses. People taking high doses of vitamin D did not suffer any significant side effects, Burton tells WebMD."

Thanks! I think, almost every vitamin taken in high doses can lead to health issues. Personally I prefer double checking the information about the medications (including vitamins and supplements).

A new study provides evidence for what many people who experience headache have long suspected -- having more stress in your life leads to more headaches. The study released today will be presented at the American Academy of Neurology's 66th Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, April 26 to May 3, 2014.

ScienceDaily (Feb. 12, 2009) - According to a recent study, diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids protect the liver from damage caused by obesity and the insulin resistance it provokes. This research should give doctors and nutritionists valuable information when recommending and formulating weight-loss diets and help explain why some obese patients are more likely to suffer some complications associated with obesity. Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in canola oil and fish.

"This website is about Vitamin D and MS Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system (CNS), with an uncertain cause. Colleen Hayes and Donald Achaeson have suggested that insufficient sunlight exposure and chronic viral infections might be unrelated environmental risk factors for MS. These risk factors may act synergistically to enable the pathogenic autoimmune response. The prevalence of MS is highest where environmental supplies of vitamin D are lowest. Sunshine enables the production of vitamin D3 (VD3) in the skin. Epidemiological studies have shown that higher vitamin D blood levels are associated with lower risk, less relapses and a slower progression of multiple sclerosis. Higher vitamin D levels can be achieved in part by increased oral intake of VD3. Optimal health requires serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D levels higher than 20 ng/ml (50 nmol/L) P Lips, 40 ng/ml (100 nmol/L) P Heaney or at least 40 ng/ml (100 nmol/L) R Vieth. "

Liefde zorgt voor kriebels in je buik en doet je hart vlugger kloppen. Liefde is echter niet alleen een prettig gevoel, het heeft ongetwijfeld ook een positieve invloed op je gezondheid. Dat blijkt uit de resultaten van een recent wetenschappelijke onderzoek. Liefde en genegenheid is in de eerste plaats goed voor je hart. Dat werd al altijd gezegd, maar wordt nu dus ook wetenschappers bewezen. Er is echter nog veel meer. Liefde werkt positief op vele andere en zelfs levensbedreigende aandoeningen. Studies wezen uit dat wie liefde en verbondenheid ervaart, niet alleen gelukkiger maar ook gezonder zal leven. Liefde doet ook veel vlugger genezen. Wat is nu verantwoordelijk voor de positieve invloed van liefde en geborgenheid op je gezondheid?

On June 15, 2011, the United States Food and Drug Administration informed the public that using the drug Actos, commonly prescribed in the treatment of Type 2 diabetes, has been positively associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer. Actos is manufactured by a Japanese pharmaceutical company, Takeda Pharmaceuticals, and is typically sold either as a single-ingredient product or in combination with the drug metformin. Actos is prescribed, along with diet and exercise, to help control blood sugar in adults. Initially the FDA's safety warnings were based on a five-year interim analysis of an ongoing ten year study regarding the risks for those taking Actos.
