    		 What Do
    The Letters Mean?


    M, F, S, Z…..


    Ever wonder what those letters mean or how they effect the body? While there are no soothsayers who can say, one won't or will get sick, this article helps explain why and what can be effected through their research observations.

    MM, ZZ, SS, MZ, MS and null,null

    What's this mean to me?

    For info on the different alleles and risk of illness: MM, ZZ, SS, null, etc    .

    This is extremely technical, an excellent source of info for doctors. The actual discussion of the illness among the different alleles begins around page 6.
