[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 3095831, member: 63925"] So here is a link to Mayo Clinic who I trust more than less than ethical researchers. I read this some time ago and worthy of regurgitation. It's really important to clearly understand humans have protein prions as part of our chemistry. "Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease and related conditions appear to be caused by changes to a type of protein called a prion. These proteins are typically produced in the body. [B]But when they encounter infectious prions, they fold and become another shape that's not typical.[/B] They can spread and affect processes in the body." "Prions are proteins that occur naturally in the brains of animals and people. Normally, the proteins are harmless, but when they're misshapen, they can cause devastating illnesses such as disease in cattle and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans." "The risk of getting [ABBR="variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease"]vCJD[/ABBR] from eating contaminated beef is very low. In countries that have implemented effective public health measures, the risk is virtually nonexistent. Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease that affects deer, elk, reindeer and moose. It has been found in some areas of North America. To date, no documented cases of chronic wasting disease (CWD) have caused disease in humans." [B][U]The problem is NOBODY knows how or why the prions "fold" and become the problem they become in the human brain. [/U][/B] IMO, any causal EXTERNAL link must address this unique prion fold scenario in the human brain to be recognized as valid medical study. OTHERWISE SOS.
