Although research is needed to study the effects of dietary supplements on chronic disease outcomes, US health care providers need to know how to advise their patients about adding vitamins and minerals to their diets.

Targeting T and B Cells as a Therapeutic Approach for Multiple Sclerosis
Immunotherapies that target abnormally activated T and B cells may represent a unique combination and promising DMT strategy for patients with RRMS and have the greatest potential for long-term success. Targeting T cells in MS may help attenuate initiation and maintenance of inflammatory attacks by reducing the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, recruitment of innate immune cells, stimulation of antibody production, and direct attack of myelin. Targeting B cells in MS may attenuate secretion of autoantibodies and pro-inflammatory cytokines, as well as presentation of self-antigen to T cells.
