Here is the reason MS folks should avoid GRAPE SEED EXTRACT.

Increased Interferon Gamma is VERY VERY BAD for MS folks. When they first discovered it they gave it to 10 MS folks to see if it would help them. They ALL got MUCH MUCH WORSE!

p.s. Grape SKIN EXTRACT is GREAT for MS folks. We do need some Gamma Interferon for a healthy immune system and to even repair our damaged nervous system.

Thanks for clearing that up, Jack. Not all supplements are safe for everyone. Everyone should do their own research before beginning anything.
