Abstract The primary purpose of this paper is to report the results of five and one-half years' experience of treating multiple sclerosis with a low-fat diet. A preliminary report of this method of treatment on the same patients was made two years ago.1 At that time it was reported that during an average treatment period of nearly three years 45 patients with exacerbating-remitting type of multiple sclerosis seemed to benefit from the low-fat diet. This tentative assumption was based on a reduction in the frequency and severity of exacerbation of the disease and upon an increased performance of patients on the low-fat diet. The earlier cases seemed to benefit more than those with established disabilities. At that time possible theoretical reasons for employing the low-fat diet were discussed, and papers by me in collaboration with other investigators * bearing on our problem were reviewed in detail. The secondary purpose of the References 1. References 2 and 3. 2. Dr. Carl E. Hopkins, biostatistician to University of Oregon Medical School, made the statistical analysis of the data included in the Table. 3. Unpublished observations. Reference 12. 4.
