Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating disorder of the central nervous system with an etiology that remains incompletely understood. In affected individuals, the myelin sheath is damaged due to autoimmune mechanisms, resulting in a range of neurological impairments. While no diet has been definitively proven to aid in the treatment of MS, there is speculation that the Swank diet may offer certain benefits.
General characteristics and recommendations in Swank's diet
The name of the diet is derived from the name of Dr. Roy Swank, who was among the first to evaluate the effects of nutrition on multiple sclerosis (MS) in a group of well-nourished subjects. He began work in Norway and at the Montreal Neurological Institute in the 1940s. The doctor conducted a study of 144 MS patients to whom the Institute of Nutrition had given his name. The Swank Institute divided the best respondents into: the well-nutrition group, the recommended nutrition group; and the non-nutritional group.
