Both depression and balance deficits are common problems in MS, and they are clearly connected. Yet, this is the first study I’ve seen exploring this connection. According to this study, depression is a predictor for balance deficits. You may want to check my other posts about depression and neurotransmitter deficiencies, and how it can be improved naturally [2].   You may also want to read success stories of reverse MS. They all have one thing in common: they start with  positive changes in the mindset.  Hormones & MS. Parathyroid hormones: parathyroid glands of people with RRMS do not respond (as they normally do) to low levels of vitamin D and calcium, which are stimuli for PTH (parathyroid hormone) secretion. The result: lower levels of PTH. Technical: The researchers suggest that the parathyroid glands are suppressed by abnormally high levels of iFGF 23 (fibroblast growth factor 23) and there is an unbalance along PTH -FGF-23-vitamin D axis [3]. My note : the function of parathyroid gland...
