I did find vitamin D3 at BJs Wholesale Club in 1000 IU capsules. I understand why we may need more.

I very much liked your last link because it had the best graphic explaining the nerve issues with the chemicals and how Copaxone works in certain situations.If anyone has a little knowledge about biochem you really should take a peek.

I don't know how you are finding this material, in its complete form, but I am glad you are sharing it. Its not easy to find more than just an abstract.

I know that our dendrites can grow and elongate,

and that is why my neuro told me about Wii actually helping to grow these for folks who can't get enough activity outside of the home.

So to keep this back to Vitamin D, it supports the NGF, if I am interpretting this properly.
