Low dose ionizing radiation may help PwP (POSSIBLY)

[johntPM]

As always, Simon Stott has written a very interesting piece this time on the effect of low dose ionizing radiation on PD.

Unfortunately, sample sizes are very small, and the dangers include cancer. SO IT'S NOT SOMETHING TO DIY.

Definitely not a DIY project for biohackers. Various studies do seem to show an increase in cancer risk with CT scans.

Great Great Great article! Even better when you read the source documents. Second Update on a Patient With Alzheimer Disease Treated by CT Scans ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

I wonder how the PD patient is doing today?

"Ionizing" means shifting one electron.? How does this differ from Red Light? Red light is strong enough that finger bones can be seen. For PD one theory is it's mitochondrial dysfunction. At the right wavelength--810 nM--the brain mitochondria are stimulated and activate the Krebs cycle. AKA the citric acid cycle. All stuff i studied in Biochem class 40 years ago and never thought I'd find use for.

Interesting. I was just looking at a red light hat (a cheap one).

I've read Vielight offers 80% return if it doesn't help.

any one heard of NAD to treat PD? Not sure what it is for my HwP.
