Small Study Finds that a Diet that Improves Cholesterol Levels May Reduce MS-Related Fatigue

August 16, 2019

SUMMARY

• In a small pilot study, researchers found that a specific diet that improved participants’ lipid profile (levels of blood fats, including cholesterol and triglycerides) and reduced body weight also led to reductions in MS-related fatigue.
