I find this fascinating. My wife is gluten intolerant, and we know someone else with a skin related auto-immune disorder.

I also wonder why in the article about Zamboni they say his findings are contrary to MS being an auto-immune disease. His data seem to suggest that blockages occur in veins coming from the brain, that when cleared alleviate symptoms. They even draw a parallel with arteriosclerosis in the heart and the angioplasty used as treatment. This seems to me to be treatment of the symptoms, and does not really say how the blockage gets there in the first place.

Is it not possible that the blockages are caused by an auto-immune response?
