Found: A Protective Probiotic for ALS
Salle de presse Scientists at the CRCHUM find that a bacterium called Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus HA-114 prevents neurodegeneration in the C. elegans worm used to study amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. … That’s the finding of a new study at Canada’s CHUM Research Centre (CRCHUM) led by Université de Montréal neuroscience professor Alex Parker and published in the […]
Fatty Acids Derived from the Probiotic Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus HA-114 Suppress Age-dependent Neurodegeneration
Audrey Labarre et al. The human microbiota is believed to influence health. Microbiome dysbiosis may be linked to neurological conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Huntington’s disease. We report the ability of a probiotic bacterial strain in halting neurode- generation phenotypes. We show that Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus HA-114 is neuroprotective in C. elegans models of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis […]
How Belief in Science Stripped Morality from Truth
Robin Monotti I think for three years there’s been a fight over science, and there’s a fight over medicine, and each side is holding their banner and saying: “This is my science. This is my medicine.” The other side saying: “No, this is my science, this is my medicine!” And it’s it’s like trying to shout each other out. […]
The Truth about LED Lightbulbs, It’s Not What You Think
William S. Bathgate Building Biology Environmental Consultant William S. Bathgate discusses the downsides of LED lighting. That includes the hidden costs and the unhealthful high frequency dirty electricity. He has decades of experience in EMF radiation and its amelioration. Image: Fotorech @ Pixabay
17 Ways to Minimize Exposure to Dirty Electricity & EMFs
Lloyd Burrell Electricity was originally introduced to the mass population in the form of a long-lasting, practical light bulb by Edison. In just over a century, electricity has brought with it an incredible range of technological innovations. But this technological tale is not totally a happy one. While we lead more convenient lives, our modern- […]
Complementary and Alternative Medicine for Treating Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Narrative Review
Mudan Cai and Eun Jin Yang Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rare neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by selective motor neuron cell death in the motor cortex, brainstem, and spinal cord. Two drugs for ALS, riluzole and edaravone, have been approved by FDA for the treatment of ALS patients. However, they have many side […]
Antioxidant Alternatives in the Treatment of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Comprehensive Review
Sandra Carrera-Juliá et al. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that produces a selective loss of the motor neurons of the spinal cord, brain stem and motor cortex. Oxidative stress (OS) associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and the deterioration of the electron transport chain has been shown to be a factor that contributes to […]
Dirty Electricity: Invisible Role in the US Health Crisis?
Richard Lear [A] dramatic rise in chronic disease, medical conditions and stress symptoms have arisen in the past thirty years in the US. Between 1990-2015 Americans experienced a surge of more than 400 million cases of just thirty-six fast growing germless chronic conditions. This calculates to about 1.3 cases of a new chronic condition per […]
