Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, multifocal, inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) with an autoimmune basis. There is a strong correlation between vitamin D deficiency and the onset of multiple sclerosis and a more severe course of the disease and more severe comorbid symptoms. Many studies have investigated vitamin D supplementation to compensate for low 25(OH)D levels in MS patients.
Methods of research: A literature review was conducted based on PubMed, Google Scholar databese. Articles were researched using following keywords: multiple sclerosis; vitamin D; multiple sclerosis prevention; vitamin D deficiency.
The results: The results of these studies have provided important information on the safety and efficacy of vitamin D therapy in MS. Dietary vitamin D supplementation can therefore serve as a prevention of MS and as an adjunct to traditional MS therapy. However, it is important to emphasize the need to assess the risks and benefits individually for each patient.
