Pretty sure adenochrome is produced in the adrenal glands. It would also be released into the bloodstream. Not positive, but probable that adrenaline products don’t cross the blood brain barrier. Organic chem is not one of my skill sets.
Unsure of the time needed for breakdown. Any MDs/phamacists who can enlighten on this? Pretty sure adrenochrome is short-lived.
Also, to transmit kuru, I would think the prion needed to be already present in the tissue. Infants-—teens might not be old enough to have picked up sufficient prion, if any. The prion lives in soil, so it would be necessary for the child to have lived in an area with prion infection.
Whatever Hillary has, it is most likely to arise from internal chemical imbalances from whatever causes.

Synthetic adrenochrome is available and not regulated.
The prion lives in soil, so it would be necessary for the child to have lived in an area with prion infection.
Having to work on this really puts one off his/her feed.
That said, I am just learning abou this subject so I might be WAY off base.
5.2 Pharmacokinetic properties
Adrenaline has a rapid onset of action after intramuscular administration and in the shocked patient its absorption from the intramuscular site is faster and more reliable than from the subcutaneous site.
Adrenaline is rapidly inactivated in the body, mostly in the liver by the enzymes catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) and monoamine oxidase (MAO). Much of a dose of adrenaline is excreted as metabolites in urine. The plasma half-life is about 2-3 minutes. However, when given by subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, local vasoconstriction may delay absorption so that the effects may last longer than the half-life suggests.
Adrenaline is a neurotransmitter so it affects the brain.
