Rapeseed oil was the source of a refined chemical to protect myelin coating outside nerve cells protect them from the body digesting it's own myelin.....I read no references from the China research to protect larger cellular structures of nerves.....the problem seems to be microcellular and not ready for human trials of the Chinese "pills" but did show a 20% improvement upon laboratory animals
