How Green Tea's EGCG helps the MS situation has recently been published. It is in my web storage area shown below.
For some strange reason these CENSORED idiots do not mention in the abstract that what they are writing about is the EGCG in Green Tea and STATINS!!!
They just call it "novel therapeutic targets". Why in HELL they did not want to identify what they had discovered is just ... really stupid!@!!
It appears that the two "novel therapeutic targets" {EGCG in Green Tea and STATINS} work together to protect the brain from demyelination.
I therefore take my second decaffeinated MEGA GREEN TEA EXTRACT (326 mg EGCG) cap at night with my SIMVASTATIN (ZOCOR) statin medication.

Neurodegeneration in autoimmune demyelination: recent mechanistic insights reveal novel therapeutic targets.

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS) and the major cause of neurological disability in young adults in Western countries. In spite of intensive research efforts, treatment options established to date do not sufficiently prevent the accumulation of tissue damage and clinical disability in patients with MS.
We here describe recently identified molecules responsible for the inflammatory and the neurodegenerative processes in MS and its animal model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), and review new treatment options targeting both aspects of this disease.
