I've also heard the Vitamin D theory frequently. And, the risk of developing MS when one grow up in Canada or the northern states (or Australia, New Zealand, etc.) seems to suggest that lack of Vitamin D could be a possible contributing factor.
I wonder, however, if Vitamin D needs to come specifically from the sun. I grew up in Canada, but drank LOTS of milk, so a lack of Vitamin D from food sources was not an issue for me. Just wondering.
Thanks for the link, Lara. Read your snips; will read article later.
