RESUMO
It has been indicated that calorie restriction (CR) leads to several neuroprotective effects against physiological aging and different neurodegenerative disorders. Unfortunately, the definite therapeutic strategy is not introduced for Multiple sclerosis (MS) as an autoimmune disease of central nervous system (CNS) and researchers are striving to find the best treatment procedures and then optimize them. More recently, several preclinical studies have reported beneficial effects of CR on MS. It was stated that CR can decline demyelination, improve remyelination and decrease neuroinflammation in animal model of MS, as well as reduce body weight and enhance emotional wellbeing in MS patients. In this context we designed this review to examine studies exploring the effects of CR on MS disease based on the clinical and animal models to highlight involved mechanistic implications and future prospective.
