| Having a friend with MS, I know that any potential cure is always looked at as the Holy Grail.
It is important not to get one's hopes up too much. These are early days in the trials, but hopefully it will lead somewhere positive
I hope that other medical experts treat it seriously and undertake more research, whilst still pursuing their other avenues. | |

This nice thing about this hypothesis is that he is simply saying
"MS patient = blocked arteries from the brain. Normal person = no blockage of arteries. Blocked arteries increase iron around/in the brain. Iron is a problem for the brain. Iron may be one of the contributing factors of MS"
How to check for blocked arteries (see video) either an MRI or a "quick and dirty" ultrasound done in a doctor's office. If you have blocked arteries, you UNBLOCK them. What can be easier. Simple angioplasty (balloon procedure). Check every once and a while to see if they are still all open. Watch if MS symptoms improve.
Downside to opening up blocked arteries? None that I know of.
Looks to me that the starting point for any MS patient is to check if his/her arteries are blocked.
