Nesbitt was diagnosed with manganism, and elevated manganese can cause the right (CJD like symptoms). Nor was she the only one with these symptoms linked to elevated metals. Why SHOULD Nesbitt believe differently if her symptoms improved as manganese levels went down?
This is a new insight? I thought this was already recognized. In any event, when posting about the cigarette/Huntington’s connection in the past, I realized that cigarette smoking means mercury exposure. I’m sure that’s just a coincidence, though.
Given that this wasn’t published in a scientific journal, nor peer reviewed, why did you ignore earlier published, peer reviewed research demonstrating a time restricted ketogenic diet effective at treating/partially reversing a variety of Huntington’s Disease symptoms?
Given that this wasn’t published in a scientific journal, nor peer reviewed at this point, why did you ignore earlier published, peer reviewed research demonstrating a time restricted ketogenic diet effective at treating/partially reversing a variety of Huntington’s Disease symptoms?
Why didn’t earlier peer reviewed research (by Phillips et al.) demonstrating a time restricted ketogenic diet effective at treating a variety of Huntington’s Disease symptoms get the same kind of love?
Why are you lying about this being the first effective treatment, though? You realize the Internet and Google Scholar exist, no?
Did Nature forget about earlier research demonstrating significant improvements in Huntington’s symptoms with a time restricted ketogenic diet? Because I’m pretty sure that altered the course of HD before AMT-130 did (assuming it did), no?
Not the first time, though, now is it?
“First to show substantial benefit”? Why doesn’t the earlier research demonstrating symptom improvement in Huntington’s Disease with a far less invasive (not to mention much more affordable) dietary approach (time restricted ketogenic diet) count, by contrast? What is/are the relevant differences?
Fact check: false.
How can it be the first time when there’s earlier researcher describing similar improvements with a far less invasive, and much more affordable, dietary intervention? Why did the BBC ignore this earlier breakthrough, by contrast?
“First treatment”, eh? Why doesn’t the earlier research demonstrating symptom improvement in Huntington’s Disease with a far less invasive (not to mention much more affordable) dietary approach (time restricted ketogenic diet) count, by contrast? What is/are the relevant differences?
“For the first time, there’s hope…”
First time, eh? Why doesn’t the earlier research demonstrating symptom improvement in Huntington’s with a far less invasive dietary approach (time restricted ketogenic diet) count, by contrast? What’s the relevant difference?
First time, eh? Even though this one came before it? Hmm…
Anybody have any idea what would possess a scientist with impressive credentials to erroneously claim that the results of some study which were carefully measured and reported by multiple researchers were merely self-reported by their patient, instead? Asking for Dr. Rachel Harding. Thanks.
Another good reason for questioning the alleged success of AMT-130 in slowing the progression of Huntington’s Disease: Ed Wild’s involvement.
It’s a screenshot of something I wrote up in response to this story.
My take on the alleged Huntington’s Disease breakthrough:
The Rouen ducks have grown a bit:
Since smelling salts have apparently just been banned from the NFL, I thought I’d share my take on them from years ago, and their (thus far officially unacknowledged) potential link to CTE symptoms. CTE researchers never told me why I was wrong, only insisted that I must be. Go figure.
What I’ve been busy with lately:
Speaking of Mount Isa and genetic mutations in response to pollution problems:

Although it still officially has nothing to do with what’s making the Indigenous population there sick (w/ Groote Eylandt Syndrome/MJD/SCA3), Purdey’s compelling Cawtian analysis notwithstanding, the excessive manganese exposure on Groote is now being recognized as detrimental to quoll health. Hmm…

If you’re not familiar with the origin story of Chronic Wasting Disease, and how it supports my take on prion diseases more generally, here’s Mark Purdey breaking it down for you:
Although it wouldn’t surprise me if Shell used this same excuse, too, I might have been thinking of PDVSA, instead. My bad:
