Connections

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis - connections

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ->

Affects: Men (Frequency: slightly more often; Comparison: women)
Affects: Bladder control, Bowel control, Hearing, Sexual function, Sight, Smell, Taste, Thinking ability, Touch (Polarity: unaffected)
Associates With: Selenium, Sulfur (Level: above_normal; Location: cellular)
Attacks: Nerve cells (Cell type: motor neurons; Location 1: brain; Location 2: spinal column)
Causes: Muscle weakness (Course: increasing; Duration: months or years)
Causes: Inability to control muscle movement (Duration: months or years)
Impairs: Breathing, Speaking, Swallowing (Duration: months or years)
Involves: Motor neuron degeneration (Progression: progressive)
Involves Storage Of: Selenium, Sulfur (Amount: excessive; Location: cellular)
Presents With: Cellular storage (Degree: excessive)
Requires Avoidance Of: Eggs, Garlic, Onions (Emphasis: particular)
Requires Avoidance Of: Selenium supplements, Sulfur supplements (Richness: high)

-> Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
