Hi, The_Inflammator:

Quote:
I question the scientific explanation for how it works with HLA-B27 since I don't have the gene, but it still works regardless.


The commonality is not the arbitrary assignation of "B2705;" that is a human convenience and convention describing complex Osp. Rather the mechanism of AS is the same.

Many B27 confirmed (through Fc or ELISA in addition to serological) negatives respond to the diet.

This idea that AS+/B27-s would not benefit from the diet was never promoted or supported by any of the research and subsequent results by B27- members substantiates that the diet cannot and should not be linked to the genotype. Further it provides more support for the salient mechanism: AS is AS--and to expect otherwise is disappointingly dense, (but probably not fatal).

HEALTH,
