T cells are present in the body and kill the infection-causing cells in the body by releasing cytokines. These cells can cause inflammation and damage to the myelin. The covering that surrounds and protects the nerve fibres is myelin. In MS patients, T helper cells, such as Th1 and Th17 and their cytokines can initiate an attack on the CNS. Walnut oil contains anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which may lower Th1 activity in MS patients. Walnut oil may help avoid damage to myelin and nerve fibres in the CNS.
