Did you know: A new study has discovered a specific gene plays a major role in myelin repair becoming less effective as we age. Why do our brains stop repairing myelin as we get older? MS researchers started unravelling what causes this - find out more: http://mssoc.uk/3qSCJAE

Ursolic Acid

Has anyone tried it out? It might promote myelin repair, they trialled it out in a mouse model etc and it appeared to help. It's available to buy, so I've just ordered some to try out. I'm not holding my breathe but it's worth ago.

I don't know if anyone else feels like this, but over the past couple of months I feel lethargic, down and very teary. It's like everything I do, I hit a brick wall and don't want to continue. I've had suicidal ideation, stopped only by the thought of the impact on my family and my partner. I've cri...
