Saliva Test To Diagnose & Monitor MS?

Early but sounds promising!“Top-down proteomic profiling of human saliva in multiple sclerosis patients”

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/30086402/...

"study demonstrates that the salivary proteome of multiple sclerosis patients differs considerably compared

to that of sex and age matched healthy individuals and suggests that some differences might be associated

with the different disease-modifying therapy used to treat multiple sclerosis patients."

Too true. Dentist told me that my saliva was having a negative effect on my teeth due to medications I was taking. Wish I knew earlier!

Cool! Not surprising since they're starting to acknowledge (more widespread) the connection between diet and autoimmune illnesses. Thanks for sharing! XX

Losing teeth is minor compared to coming cognitive and brain fog. You can test saliva with litmus straps. It is PH balance. Mine is high acidic in bladder and stomach and mouths. Very in flammatory.
