    It was good and useful. But I think you had a tiny mistake in distinguishing upper motor neurons from lower motor neurons. You said "lower motor neurons in brainstem and spinal cord", while all neurons in these areas are upper motor neurons.

    So that diet the neuropathologist made when she was diagnosed to MS would it not be an effective treatment here? The mylon sheathes were her focus on repairing through diet and she was successful. Why wouldn’t it be successful here around the body instead of the brain.

    I don't suppose you have rough estimates of percentages of apoptosis vs. ferroptosis cell deaths. I haven't seen any such numbers yet in published studies. Also curious about the noxious chemicals- are these cytokines, reactive oxygen species, reactive nitrogen species, or something else?

      @@Leonardo-cu7fd I hadn't heard of cytokines referred to as 'noxious chemicals' before. Some are useful in chemotaxis, but in this instance they are harmful. The glutamate at the NMJ is problematic. About 4% of what shoots across isn't acetylcholine, but calcium. Accumulation causes other problems. There's a LOT going on in ALS that would take many videos to explain. Thanks.

    My young athletic son died of MND. He was very fit and had been using a muscle building shake to build body muscle. I am convinced that his illness was caused by Maximuscle I have tried to have a dialogue with Glaxo Smith Kline regarding this but they have dismissed my concerns. The product is high Glutamate and high protein and I think his body couldn’t recycle sufficiently. I am not a scientist just a heart broken mother. Could you help my cause please. Or at least give some expert thought to my suggestion. Thank you. Christine Mon 27th Feb 2023. 10.24 am UK

      You're right, he died because of the supplement, this disease is common in athletes, Lou Gehrig died the same way, by using anabolics steroids, the explanation of the etiology of ALS in this video is wrong, is not the glutamate is LDL (bad cholesterol), the whole explanation is long, so I cannot delve on the topic in this comment.

Due to having shit memory when I’ve always had a sharp memory which has lasted for the last 2 years getting worse, muscle twitching which only started in some body parts now it’s all over and in my tongue, noticing muscle weakness & loss in one leg and one hand, always tired asf! Feels like I’m slurring when I speak for too long, overall muscle fatigue and my postures getting shit sloooowly.
