Introduction to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)/Lou Gehrig’s Disease

ALS – Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, sometimes referred as Lou Gehrig’s Disease is a very serious neurological disease that according to the Mayo Clinic, “causes muscle weakness, disability and eventually death.” Mayo says that worldwide, ALS occurs in 1 to 3 people per 100,000 and in 90 to 95% of those people, doctors don’t know why ALS occurs.

Early signs and symptoms of ALS are:

• Difficulty lifting your toes
• Weakness or clumsiness
• Slurring of your speech
• Trouble swallowing
• Muscle cramps and twitching in your arms, shoulders and tongue.

The disease usually starts in your hands and feet but then spreads to other parts of your body. You become progressively weaker until you are paralyzed.

Short Description of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)/Lou Gehrig’s Disease

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease refers to a group of rare neurological diseases that involve mostly the nerve cells that are responsible for the control of voluntary muscle movement.

Symptoms of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)/Lou Gehrig’s disease

• Muscle twitching in the arm, leg, tongue and shoulder
• Muscle cramps
• Tight and stiff muscles
• Muscle weakness affecting the arm, leg or the diaphragm
• Slurred nasal speech
• Difficulty in swallowing and chewing

About Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)/Lou Gehrig’s disease

Lou Gehrig’s disease belongs to a group of disorders known as motor neuron diseases and results in a gradual deterioration and death of motor neurons that affect muscle. As of the present, there is no cure for the disease and there is no effective treatment to stop or reverse the disease progression.

Most patients with ALS eventually die from respiratory failure, usually within three to five years when the first symptoms appear. Approximately 10% of patients however live on for 10 additional years.

Causes of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)/Lou Gehrig’s Disease

According to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2016 estimated that 14,000-15,000 Americans have ALS. ALS is also a common neuromuscular disease worldwide and affects all races and ethnic backgrounds.

Factors for ALS are:

Age – While the disease can appear at any age, research show that clinical symptoms commonly develop between 55 and 75 years old.

Gender – Men are more likely to develop the disease than women but as aging progresses the difference between the sexes disappear.

Race and Ethnicity – According to the latest research, the disease is more likely to develop in Caucasians and non-Hispanics.

Genetic Causes

In 1993, scientists with the backing of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) found mutations in the SOD1 gene that are associated with the development of familial ALS.

Environmental Causes

Researchers are looking into potential causes like exposure to toxic and infectious agents, viruses, physical trauma, diet as well as behavioral and occupational factors.

Sound Therapy and ALS

For thousands of years, eastern healers have utilized the healing benefits of sound in order to treat disorders of the mind and body. Sound therapy works by using the different healing aspects of sound for the purpose of producing positive effects on the body. The sound vibrates at the right frequency to tune the body and produce healing and lessening of physical and mental symptoms.

Reviews

Dick Sulley – July 22, 2016: I am using your cd along with every other kind of treatment and therapy I can afford. Something is helping and I think it is the sound stuff. I had not had any help before and when I added the cd things started to get better.

Jonathan Golden – July 22, 2016: I am giving your cd a run for the money. It seems to have slowed the progression of my ALS and that’s pretty good for only $47. I’ll keep you posted on my progress back to health.
