CCSVI is not MS cure, but, best case scenario, a revolution on MS's pathogenesis. MS is still mostly considered an autoimmune disease. CCSVI is modifying this belief, answering to the basic question of the why: what trigger made my immune system work against my body? Classic explanation was (and still is) that IS isn't working correctly, and drugs in use act on IS (with low effectiveness indeed). CCSVI could be the trigger, cause the exhausted blood trapped for too long in the brain area by the narrowing of the veins at the base of the cranium cause the inflammation that generate the IS attack.

Can nutrition affect outcome of multiple sclerosis?

Good nutrition can absolutely improve the quality of life of a person with MS. Eating healthy will provide the maximum amount of energy for the longest amount of time, and will stave off other health issues. A healthy diet may also help you control your MS symptoms, and may help you to better cope with your relapses. However, there is no food or diet that will "cure" MS. We know that the disease course of MS is undeterred by foods. If you "had MS" and you changed your diet and you "cured" your MS, you didn't have MS. Any neurologist worth his salt will tell you exactly the same thing.
