Disturbed gut flora during the first years of life is associated with diagnoses such as autism and ADHD later in life, according to a study. The study is part of the ABIS study. More than 16,000 children born in 1997–1999, representing the general population, have been followed from birth into their twenties. Of these, 1,197 children, corresponding to 7.3%, have been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, communication disorder or intellectual disability. Children who had repeated ear infections during their first year of life had an increased risk of being diagnosed with a developmental neurological disorder later in life. It...

Scientists have discovered that the circadian clock regulates axonal regeneration and repair. The authors found that DRG sensory neurons have an endogenous molecular clock that optimizes axonal regeneration in a mouse model of sciatic nerve injury. The researchers also demonstrated that axonal regeneration can be promoted using chrono-active drugs, such as lithium, which is currently used in clinics for treating neurological disorders. These findings pave the way for the use of clock-associated therapies and timed neurorehabilitation for people with Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) injuries. Dr. Francesco De Virgiliis said, "Our study shows that the circadian clock regulates axonal regeneration, and...

Almost a third of individuals who received a COVID-19 vaccine suffered from neurological complications including tremors, insomnia, and muscle spasms, according to a recent study published in the journal Vaccines.The study analyzed 19,096 people who received COVID-19 vaccines in Italy in July 2021, out of which 15,368 had taken the Pfizer vaccine, 2,077 had taken the Moderna version, and 1,651 took the AstraZeneca version.While both Pfizer and Moderna are mRNA vaccines, AstraZeneca, being an adenovirus vaccine, uses a different mechanism to trigger the immune response.The study found that about 31.2 percent of vaccinated individuals developed post-vaccination neurological complications, particularly among...

A new study has identified a compelling link between vitamin B12 deficiency and chronic inflammation, which is associated with a range of health problems including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and neurodegenerative disorders. The research examined the effects of circulating B12 concentration on the levels of two key inflammatory markers in both humans and mice. Vitamin B12, an essential nutrient with roles in various physiological processes, is known to be critical for overall health. Its deficiency can be the result of dietary insufficiency or inefficient absorption in the body. This can lead to a range of complications, including neurological disorders. While previous...

UCI researchers have found that a simple sugar, N-acetylglucosamine, reduces multiple inflammation and neurodegeneration markers in people who suffer from multiple sclerosis (MS). In addition, they also found this dietary supplement improved neurological function in 30% of patients. A major issue with current therapies in MS is the inability to treat chronic-active neuroinflammation in the brain and the associated failure to repair the loss of myelin that covers and protects axons, the electrical wires of the brain. Over time, this leads to permanent nerve cell damage and slow progressive loss of neurological function in patients. "Our previous studies in mice...

A new paper from Germany posted on April 5, 2023 proves that the spike protein accumulates in the brain and causes death of brain cells (which would certainly explain a great deal of what we see around us). (click here) Key findings: “Our results revealed the accumulation of the spike protein in the skull marrow, brain meninges, and brain parenchyma.” “The injection of the spike protein alone caused cell death in the brain, highlighting a direct effect on brain tissue.” “we observed the presence of spike protein in the skull of deceased long after their COVID-19 infection, suggesting that the...

A large stroke trial has shown that intensive blood pressure lowering after clot removal worsens recovery, stopped early due to the significance of the findings. Professor Craig Anderson said the rapid emergence of this effect suggested the more aggressive approach was compromising the return of blood flow to the affected area. "Our study provides a strong indication that this increasingly common treatment strategy should now be avoided in clinical practice," he said. Around 85 percent of strokes are ischemic strokes, caused by the loss of blood flow to an area of the brain due to a blockage in a blood...

This excerpt is from avery lengthy article and begins 2/3rds down the article. "In their rigorously peer-reviewed study (pdf), Seneff and her colleagues speculated that the vaccine may cause prion misfolding, causing damage to the brain in the forms of CJD, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, ALS, and so on. The mRNA and DNA vaccines carry instructions for making the spike protein into cells. Once cells receive these instructions, they start making spike protein. Cells then stick these spike proteins on their cellular surface, and when immune cells recognize the proteins as foreign, an immune response is triggered. However, mistakes can occur during...

Two U.S. agencies have been quietly studying neurological problems that have appeared in people who have had COVID-19 vaccines, The Epoch Times has found. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and National Institutes of Health (NIH) have been conducting separate research projects into post-vaccination neurological issues, which have manifested with symptoms like facial paralysis and brain fog and have been linked in some cases with the vaccines, according to emails reviewed by The Epoch Times. One attempt to gain understanding of a problem that experts around the world are struggling to understand is being carried out by Dr. Janet Woodcock,...

COVID-19 infection may have a large neurological and psychiatric impact on as many as one-third of its survivors. A study published by Lancet Psychiatry finds that insomnia may be one of the most common neurological and psychiatric outcomes from COVID-19. Researchers evaluated the electronic health records of TriNetX, a global health research network, for approximately 236,000 patients, 10 years of age and older, who tested positive for COVID-19 from January 20, 2020 and were recorded as still alive on December 13, 2020 (see table for baseline characteristics). There was an estimated incidence of 14 neurological and psychiatric outcomes in the...

We’re told by pharmaceutical companies, mainstream media, and politicians on both sides of the aisle that adverse reactions to the COVID-19 injections are rare. But anyone with common sense knows that’s a lie. Serious medical complications, such as myocarditis/pericarditis, thrombosis, and neurological disorders, have occurred in COVID-19 injection recipients around the world. Stallone Edmonds Tepania is a 33-year-old registered nurse and mother of 3 in New Zealand. After taking a 2nd dose of the COVID-19 injection, Stallone was diagnosed with pericarditis, inflammation of the sac around the heart. She recently went public on social media to share her story after...

A recent article published in the scientific journal Microbiology and Infectious Diseases makes the claim that the mRNA Pfizer Covid vaccine may contain prions which cause deadly neurodegenerative disease, sometimes called “Creutzfeldt-Jakob” or “Mad Cow” disease. The article, titled “COVID-19 RNA Based Vaccines and the Risk of Prion Disease,” was published in January of 2021 and has been studiously ignored by major media, which has focused its efforts on encouraging individuals to take the jab. The paper was authored by J. Bart Classen, MD and analyzed the Pfizer mRNA vaccine,..... The paper goes on to state that “The folding of...

MRI showing inflammation of the spinal cord. (Roman et al., Frontiers in Immunology, 2021) It feels like it's been a lot longer, but the first case of COVID-19 was officially recorded in December 2019. Researchers are continuing to investigate the full effects of this disease, including unusual ones, and a new analysis has now linked the infection to a rare neurological condition. Acute transverse myelitis (ATM) – an inflammation of the spinal cord which can cause pain, paralysis and sensory problems – was identified in 43 adult COVID-19 cases across 21 countries, with patient ages ranging from 21 to 73,...

According to a startling recent study on the COVID-19 vaccinations, the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine has long-term health risks that have not historically been disclosed, including “ALS, Alzheimer's, and other neurological degenerative diseases.” The new RNA-based SARSCoV-2 vaccines were approved in the United States under an emergency order without rigorous long-term protection monitoring, according to the article. “In this study, the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine was assessed for its ability to cause prion-based disease in vaccine recipients.” According to the CDC, prion-based disorders are a type of neurodegenerative disease, which means that the Pfizer vaccine is likely to cause long-term brain injury...

One in three people who overcome COVID-19 suffer from a neurological or psychiatric diagnosis six months on, according to the largest study so far published on the mental toll that long-COVID takes on survivors. Authors said the research, printed Wednesday in The Lancet Psychiatry journal, proved that COVID-19 patients were significantly more likely to develop brain conditions than those suffering from other respiratory tract infections. Studying the health records of more than 230,000 patients who had recovered from COVID-19, they found that 34 percent were diagnosed with a neurological or psychiatric condition within six months. The most common conditions were...

Anthony Fauci is on video in 2017 predicting the current COVID outbreak and he spent millions of dollars at several labs, including at the Level 4 facility in Wuhan, China to weaponize viruses by bioengineering so-called “gain of function”. Also in 2017, Johns Hopkins published “The SPARS Pandemic 2025-2028”, a report about a drill for a vaccine that caused spongiform encephalopathy aka “Mad Cow” prion disease. There is a concern, that as with other “drills” they have published in the past, such as Crimson Contagion and Event 201, the SPARS report will turn out to be the actual script of...

A shocking study has revealed the terrifying dangers of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines inducing prion-based disease causing your brain to degenerate progressively. The mRNA vaccine induced prions may cause neurodegenerative diseases because long-term memories are maintained by prion-like proteins. The study concluded that mRNA based vaccine may also cause ALS, front temporal lobar degeneration, Alzheimer’s disease and other neurological degenerative diseases in the vaccine recipients.

About one-third of COVID-19 survivors have a neurological or psychiatric condition six months later, a large-sample study conducted by British researchers has found. Researchers examined health records of more than 236,000 patients. They found that about 34% of COVID-19 survivors were diagnosed with a neurological or psychiatric condition and were more likely to develop brain conditions than those suffering from other respiratory tract infections, according to the study published Tuesday in The Lancet Psychiatry journal...Anxiety was the most common condition, diagnosed in 17% of patients. Fourteen percent of patients experienced mood disorders, 7% had substance misuse disorders and 5% experienced...

Hillary Clinton received what appears to be a neurological test prior to her leaving and collapsing at a 9/11 commemoration ceremony Sunday. Clinton’s personal physician, Dr. Lisa Bardack, is seen in the image with her finger in Clinton’s closed fist, talking to her intently.

President Obama’s former physician said that he believes Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton should have a neurological examination due to her history of brain injury. During an interview on CNN, Dr. David Scheiner argued that Clinton’s note from her doctor isn’t enough. The letter details that Clinton had follow-up testing in 2013 that showed a full recovery from a concussion and that she tested negative for clotting disorders.
