Accilion
In our opinion, Accilion does not have a mechanism that is plausible for the treatment of ALS. There is one patient with a confirmed diagnosis of slowly progressive ALS who had modest objective improvements in motor function while using Accilion. However, improvements such as these have been described before, even in patients taking a placebo […]
Rife Machine and Retroviruses
It is possible, although currently unsettled, that ALS in some individuals may be due to a retrovirus. Even if true, however, Rife’s microscope technology, his identification of specific frequencies for pathogens, and the ability of Rife radio frequency machines to kill pathogens, are all unproven and highly implausible. We have identified no verified cases of […]
Sodium Chlorite Oral
The NP001 formulation of sodium chlorite acts through a plausible mechanism and preliminary data suggest that it is safe and may slow ALS progression in some PALS. The WF10 formulation of SC appears to act through this same mechanism. Although WF10 is available for off-label use, it is very expensive, may have more side-effects than […]
Dean Kraft, Energy Healer
In our opinion, Dean Kraft’s energy healing lacks a plausible scientific rationale. The experiments listed on his website as proof of his being able to emit some sort of energy have never been published in a peer-reviewed journal and thus cannot be properly validated. The strongest evidence for his being able to heal ALS comes […]
Marty Murray’s Method
In our opinion, there are many serious problems with MM’s approach. First, ALSUntangled is aware of no evidence to support MM’s theory on ALS pathogenesis. No case of ALS has ever been shown to be caused or exacerbated by emotional repression. Statements that patients may have somehow caused their own ALS by repressing their emotions […]
