Thanks, Matt, for mentioning this. It had never registered with me

before.

Yesterday on another list I read that there's a theory that low dose

naltrexone is a possible therapy for MS. There's a paper by a

researcher at the University of Iowa named Dr. Yash Agrawal that

mentions the excitatory neurotoxicitity of glutamate on neuronal cells.

I'm sure you already knew this, but others might have missed it..

In an easy-to-read interview Agrawal talks more about glutamate

toxicity. He said, " The area of free radical biology and oxidative

stress is quite complex, " and then he proceeded to explain it so

clearly that even I could understand what he was saying.
