On January 17, at 6:00 p.m. EST, Dr. DavidPermutter's friend and colleague Dr. Mark Hyman’s Broken Brain documentary series will air its live premiere episode and as a member of this community you are invited to participate! Having been a part of this docuseries, he can tell you that you do not want to miss it. It is truly groundbreaking.
The broken brain epidemic is happening all around us. Dementia, ADHD, depression, anxiety, autism, Alzheimer’s, and a host of other brain conditions that we “thought” were separate problems, actually have similar root causes.
In this powerful 8-part documentary series, I join Dr. Hyman and dozens of thought leaders to address the root causes of this terrifying and growing epidemic. Topics discussed will include:
Alzheimer’s and Dementia
ADHD
Autism
Depression
Anxiety
Concussions and TBI

He has been doing hyped marketing on this for a couple of months now.
It's the American Way I guess. I subscribed a few moths back, but had to un-subscribe because of the relentless corny (but expensive and polished) marketing hype and the too many emails with nothing tangible.
He says,"I knew there was something real going on." Hello Dr Hymen, the medical journals have been full of this for the last five years. The developed world is heading into economically damaging levels of these illnesses with major issues about how to provide enough affordable care .
Which is why the EU had had a major conference of heads of state a couple of years ago to set up collaboration on research as well as increasing the amounts spent on it. Also to collaborate on work to develop improved models of care.
I agree with you Kevin, but I have to have hope that I will find the Magic Bullet somewhere to slow this disease, especially since there a no pharmaceuticals at this time that will help. And since this is free, I guess you get what you pay for.
Kevin, I just this article about Pfizer. Discouraging. Yes, it is all about the money. After Trump tax boost, Pfizer ends funding for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's research newsweek.com/alzheimers-par....
Hey you kids is this post for just you two or can anyoune jump in and play? Quite frankly I gots nothin... about the same as all the higher educated on this subject of the broken brain. I remember when I first came here (this PSP chat club) it was about the same time as my dance with CoQ10. Now I just knew it made B's continence a little brighter and I saw a future....for about two months. Still have several bottles ( bought a bunch from some internet Dr who touted the new snake oil)...Although, I must say that I have started using the stuff and I do feel a bit sharper...go placebo effect?..If there is anything to this or any other supplement or treatment or preventative, then use it...but like everything else, don't hang your hat on it.
Research is what is needed. As an inventor, Edison made 1,000 unsuccessful attempts at inventing the light bulb. When a reporter asked, "How did it feel to fail 1,000 times?" Edison replied, "I didn't fail 1,000 times. The light bulb was an invention with 1,000 steps."
So, CoQ10 was not a cure. Maybe in the "right dosage" could slow the progression. What if the solution is a synergistic effect between X and Y? Or that swallowing a pill was not effective but IV was. Or a gut-brain connection fix? We just don't know. Hopefully, someone is looking into it.
Did anyone see the BBC documentary called The woman who can smell Parkinson's over the past day or so? There was also an article in The Telegraph before Xmas about her. It is amazing! It seems scientists now know 10 of the molecules that are responsible for it.
Now I know PSP is not the same but if they actually get a pharmaceutical company to develop a drug that would be amazing. It might also provide a new drug for PSP and other conditions? The University of Manchester seem to be the lead on this. I am amazed at this woman. Her husband sadly died of Parkinson's but she noted his smell had changed many years ago. He was eventually diagnosed with Parkinson's.
When they went to a support group she felt overwhelmed by the smell and told her husband they all smelled like him. Before he died he asked her to follow it through. She had told them in Manchester or perhaps Edinburgh as they are involved now. They didn't do anything at the time but it was playing on the mind of one of the doctors.
Anyway she traced this woman and they did tests with her. They asked her to smell 12 t-shirts. 6 had been worn by Parkinson's patients, 6 by people who didn't have it. She correctly picked the six who had Parkinson's but also picked one from the other group. They thought she had done pretty well.
Ten weeks later they rang her to tell her the man who had worn the 7th t-shirt had just been diagnosed with Parkinson's! She continued helping the researchers and they were able to find these 10 molecules which cause it. Fingers crossed they can now get a treatment developed. Maybe there is hope out there if we just have faith?
Christine interesting you should mention dogs. She was told she was somewhere between a dog and a human!! Don't know what I would have made of that!
Anyway they are now recruiting more people with acute smell to get them involved. They are also working with a firm in Cambridge to try to take this forward.
Interestingly they thought the smell would be from under the arms of the t-shirts but it wasn't. It was around the neck. It is sebum that is causing the smell and where they looked for the molecules. I think this woman has been working with them for over 2 years. Really interesting stuff! A clinical trial next?
Nope, nothing to do with this vein of research. This is to do with head knocks causing pituitary problems resulting in hormonal imbalance. He's some data. tbimedlegal.com/sitebuilder...
