Multiple Sclerosis and Geomagnetic Disturbances: Investigating a   Potentially Important Environmental Risk Factor
  Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common disabling neurological disorders in the young adults. In spite of many researches, the cause of the disease has remained mainly not understood. All evidences indicate that environmental risk factors play key roles in this disease etiology. Various hypotheses have been posited up to now on the presumed disease risk factors, however, they were not successful in explaining all MS features. The aim of this article is to introduce the concept of the newly proposed "geomagnetic disturbance hypothesis of MS" and its abilities in explaining the special features of the disease to encourage medical geologist and other biomedical researchers to contribute to this area of research.
