Modern medicine has finally realized its many experiments with laboratory mice have been flawed by the failure to recognize humans do not secrete vitamin C as rodents do. Therefore, many scientific studies performed in mice have little application to humans.
Unlike most other animals, patients with Alzheimer’s disease have a progressive buildup of beta amyloid plaque in their brains and loss of memory. Researchers now think they have found out why.

News sources report a link between women who have morning sickness during pregnancy and having an autistic child. A study of 50,000 women with hyperemesis gravidarum, the technical name for morning sickness during pregnancy, reveals a 53% greater rick for having an autistic child. The news report stated that pregnant women who can’t keep their food down or have stopped eating because of repeated vomiting or dry heaves suggests a nutrient deficiency that is evoked by the emesis (vomiting) may be involved. The report is published in the American Journal of Perinatology.
Nausea and vomiting are symptoms of severe vitamin B1 deficiency apart from pregnancy.

Millions of people who have been eating and enjoying cholesterol-rich eggs under the assurance they do not increase the risk for heart disease have now been told eggs (slightly) increase the risk for strokes.
And 50+ million Americans have now been told the aspirin tablet they have been taking to prevent a heart attack or a stroke is useless.
Bottom line, the most recent advice is to throw out the eggs and the aspirin tablets.
But wait, organized medicine has misled the public before.

In 1993, in what was called “the most important finding that’s ever been made in the study of Alzheimer’s disease,” investigators reported a variation of the APOE gene, a protein that transports cholesterol throughout the human body, drastically increases risk for this memory-robbing brain disease. The APOE gene provides instructions for making a protein called apolipoprotein E. APOE regulates the clearance of beta amyloid brain plaque, which is a common hallmark of age-related brain disease. Carriers of the APOE e4 gene in their brain cells are at such an increased risk for memory loss that it is called “the forgetting gene.” Carry two copies of this gene and the risk is worrisome. Look at the risk chart below:

The origin of dyslexia, the neurobiologically-rooted learning disorder that impairs reading words and letters (word blindness) but does not affect general intelligence, is no longer a mystery. As background information, dyslexia is said to affect 5-10% of the population. Some 70-80% of people with poor reading skills are likely dyslexic.
News headlines today herald a breakthrough in the understanding of the biological roots of this disorder. Most scientific investigations into the origins of dyslexia have been focused on the brain. The discovery announced today has to do with eye dominance.

The study is being conducted at the Burke Rehabilitation & Research Hospital in White Plains, New York under the direction of Dr. Gary E. Gibson PhD.
In a pilot study other researchers overseas just reported a small number of patients (5) taking a fat-soluble form of vitamin B1 experienced restoration of some of their mental faculties and regeneration of brain activity as evidenced by PET scans. The PET scan images are remarkable. The scrambled brains of Alzheimer’s subjects regained youthful activity once again!

No, the substance of this report doesn’t emanate from Harvard Medical School and is being ignored and will predictably be dismissed by uninformed physicians whose livelihood is threatened by such a discovery.
Denial and ridicule is the first phase of any scientific discovery, followed strong opposition and finally self-evident acceptance. This discovery hasn’t even reached the first stage as it goes ignored.
The acronym for the National Institutes of Health — NIH – more accurately means: “not invented here.” The covert mission of the NIH is to block any remedy outside of synthetic molecules from gaining FDA approval.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS (aka Lou Gehrig’s Disease after this famous baseball player died of the disease in 1941) is a disease without a known cause or cure. It progressively disables motor neurons and often a victim dies by choking to death or can’t expand their lungs and succumbs by asphyxiation.
Researchers writing in the Annual Review of Biochemistry have been investigating SOD1—superoxide dismutase 1 – an internally made enzymatic antioxidant and ALS. When the human body is biologically stressed SOD-1 is produced from copper-zinc precursors. Somehow in the development of ALS zinc-copper SOD1 becomes toxic, destroying motor neurons (nerves used for movement).

During a tumultuous period of turnover of federal agencies just prior to the inauguration of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States, the Federal Trade Commission appears to be taking a final shot at a company that in 2009 needled forgetful government officials who didn’t pay their taxes on time.
We see today in the news an attack by the Federal Trade Commission on a dietary supplement company, QUINCY BIOSCIENCE and its PREVAGEN brain-boosting product. [Daily Mail Jan 9, 2017; FTC.gov]

In recent weeks the world has learned the news media creates fake news and/or completely shuns significant news stories to match its own politically correct agendas. So an unequivocal cure for a major brain disease goes unreported. Shame on CNN, CBS, ABC, NBC, the BBC, Reuters, Associated Press and the New York Times.
For a disease considered incurable, a physician in Italy has begun to provide a common B vitamin to successfully treat a debilitating motor-nerve disease commonly known as Parkinson’s disease. The importance of this startling discovery has escaped major news outlets. It should be heralded on television and in newspapers worldwide. But it has only been reported by an obscure European news source. [Ultima Edizione.eu] (Be sure to click the before-and-after video tabs.)
