Omega-3 fats are essential to repairing myelin. They use cofactors--- B12, folate, magnesium, B6, Vit D.
If you are damaged for many years, it may not be possible to correct everything. Some cells die, and their axons shrivel away.
They are not replaced. The body can repair up to a certain point, and then ...well... that is it.
Also when you exercise, you generate alot of free radicals, and this along with the Omega-3 deficiency....accelerates damage to the nerves.
The MSers, therefore use foods, with polyphenols and antioxidants, to prevent further damage. Dr. Wahl's TED lecture and book go into that.
