Re: Vitamin C - myelin promoter

[Guest guest]

,

In the French Vit. C study that I researched and wrote about, the way

Vitamin C worked was as a promoter of myelin. (Myelin is the stuff that

is wrapped around the nerves; that in CMT 1A gets frayed and lost, thus

creating muscle atropy). As a promoter of myelin, this most likely means

that Vitamin C helps to keep myelin intact and perhaps even make it

stronger. This is one question of many I will ask Dr. Fontes about.

I am thrilled it is showing some good improvement in you too
