About This Event
Event Description:
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a behavioral dysimmune disease self-aggression of the immune system which causes inflammatory demyelination and neurodegeneration. The triggers of immune dysfunction are manifold, e in recent years, attention has been focused on environmental factors related to lifestyles.
In particular, the type of diet and exposure to toxic substances (such as smoking and air pollutants), can affect both the risk of developing MS and the risk of having relapses. Conversely, an adequate diet, combined with an activity appropriate physical, could play a protective action against the disease.
