This is excellent. I hope successes like this spark a whole new wave of research. I have long held belief that a similar causal relationship exists with Parkinson disease. It's my believe that it is bacteria or bacterial waste that dogs can smell when trained to point on Parkinson sufferers. I think we'll be shocked at how much good gut health fixes disease --- we just gotta get Big Pharma and Big Ag to quit destroying gut biomes with what passes for food these days.

My sister posted an article about Parkinson's last week. There is a protein named PINK1 responsible for causing "mitophagy" to occur. When mitochondria become worn, they are triggered to die by PINK1. When the gene coding for PINKT is defective, the mitophagy doesn't occur and the defective mitochondria stick around creating poisons that damage the dopamine creating cells.

“ Big Ag to quit destroying gut biomes with what passes for food these days.”

Wrong.
Our agriculture produces the safest and most affordable food supply in history .
