Abstract
In order to test a recent hypothesis on the possible role of defined agents from wood smoke in the etiology of multiple sclerosis (MS), the practices of meat preservation, as reported in ethnographic bibliography, were analyzed in relation to the MS distribution in France and Switzerland. In both countries, but more so in Switzerland, a significant association between both features could be demonstrated.Keywords
