This is a Topic of TRENDS and HEALTH.
The whole issue I see is entirely when
you look at it as a health issue as a whole.
I believe all things in moderation.
I really believe some people tend to go
overboard and there is such thing as
to quote an old adage:
"TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING"
So I can understand why some people would
be confused, bewildered, perplexed and
baffled.
Then you have to look at this from another
perspective:
I am going to play the DEVIL'S ADVOCATE
NOW ... and it's only going to be one word:
T R E N D S
BUT .............
CAN YOU BELIEVE EVERYTHING THAT
YOU READ ONLINE OR IN A BOOK?
The research doesn't elaborate if the studies
were performed on children (who's brains are
being developed) which is entirely different
than those of an adult. It doesn't specify nor
indicate if the research was performed on
adults. Neither does it state anything about
those who may have Parkinson's, Alzheimer's,
Dementia, or some other type of Neurological
Disorder or Diseases. It doesn't even mention
a word about those who sustained Traumatic
Brain Injuries (T.B.I.).
A person with Diabetics can sustain seizures,
so can a person with alcohol undergoing
withdrawl or illegal drug withdrawl or overdose.
A research could have been done on such part.
We just don't know.
:dontknow:
I have read many journals and articles and
even some abstracts that have left me going
:huh:
I had gotten to the point of asking the
question to my monitor:
"BASED ON WHAT????"
I wonder where they came up with such
findings, conclusions, data, et cetera?
I found it to be insulting that such was even
found warranted to be published.
YES it was nicely written; many people
involved, fancy schmancy titles ...
But still .... after reading it all ...
"BASED ON WHAT????"
I am not a Medical Doctor, but if I was a
Professor, and that was a final exam they
were turning in - I would have given them
a "F" and wrote:
"BASED ON WHAT????"
I'm sorry ... they've failed.
They've elaborated with much hoopla galore
right down to the core, even with impressive
diagrams, charts, notes, details, the whole
works - but yet .... they did not say a single
word about what it was based on.
:tdown:
I had the PDF - printed it out, to read, and
reread, in case I overlooked or missed some-
thing on the computer ~ and I'm sorry to say
it ended up in my shredder.
I've read them all from all over the world. I
have some exceptional ones on my file and
I've seen some awful ones that are so bad
because it's beyond pathetic, and maybe
pathetic is putting it too lightly.
For example:
Here's one from my disc
and I hope it works
(from a PDF FILE)
I don't remember where I obtained this
from it could have been from PUBMED
or PLoS or LANCET or Blackwell-Synergy.
But I do not believe this was a 'successful'
surgery.
But the reason for my posting here is not
to be OFF TOPIC - but merely to state just
because something was published, means it
has to be so.
This is the Emphasis I am trying to put here
in the best way I can possibility can.
I know Today's Neuroscience is doing ALL
they can (better than it was back then -
thank goodness!) and we are all DESPERATE
for:
A CURE
AN ESCAPE
A GET A RID OF EPILEPSY, ONCE AND FOREVER!

New Findings In Neurosurgery
ABSTRACT
1996
Four patients who underwent neurosurgery to have both memory sections of their brain removed retained no memory after surgical procedure was performed. Morbidity rate is 0%. All patients suffered from aspiration, cognitive failure, respiratory pneumonia, myocardial infarction, and were all deceased within three days after the successful surgery.
I don't remember where I obtained this
from it could have been from PUBMED
or PLoS or LANCET or Blackwell-Synergy.
But I do not believe this was a 'successful'
surgery.
But the reason for my posting here is not
to be OFF TOPIC - but merely to state just
because something was published, means it
has to be so.
This is the Emphasis I am trying to put here
in the best way I can possibility can.
