The moderators don't owe any explanation for holding your post as long as they need to. It's obvious that you have an agenda in coming -- registered yesterday and already telling us that you have some special insight into ALS that we don't have.
I don't have my own website nor do I sell any supplements or miracle-cures and preventives. The links I cite in my post are referencing well documented studies. What agenda could I possibly have? It is a pity you think that way.
Never said I had special insight either. I repeat what I said in my original unpublished post -- my claim is that many studies which are well established are being avoided on major medical websites. The vast majority of websites keep claiming that 10% of ALS is familial, and the risk factors for the other 90% are unknown.
This is false, as there is much evidence to a contrary. A very well controlled study in the Netherlands for example, is being ignored. In my original post I link to and cite specifically the names of these studies so that people can look them up and see that it isn't garbage I am spewing.
When the moderators think that your post meets site standards, it'll get published. I doubt that you've found anything so revolutionary that we (and you) can't wait a couple of days to see it.
Revolutionary?
No.
However -- scientific studies which are very informative, useful, backed up with evidence, well documented yet avoided by many?
Yes.
It would seem to me that those websites that avoid these issues are the ones that have an agenda.
I actually
do have an agenda, and that is to make people aware that major medical websites aren't telling the complete truth about ALS risk factors and prevention.
im wondering how they have FACTS that say they know something to help prevent ALS, when they still dont know what causes it.
If you want to keep believing that, then that's fine. I obviously can't force you to think otherwise. In today's culture it is very common that people "deify" their doctors as if what they say is holy and unquestionable truth, and if their doctor says that there are no known risk factors to ALS or ways to prevent it, then everything that points to the contrary must be "bogus".
The entire purpose of my original unpublished post was to inform people such as yourself, that there are
scientific studies which are being avoided, that show evidence that ALS isn't just a disease that
"randomly attacks anyone with no known risk factors or methods of prevention."
I have no website -- I sell no product -- I claim no miracle cures either. My agenda was to inform people of things they might not have been aware about. You can continue to ridicule me all day.
My sincere apologies if I have offended any of the moderators. Best wishes to all.
