    Unexplained silence regarding possible ALS risk factors & prevention

    A big hello to everyone on this forum, :smile: I'll keep this post as simple as I possibly can. I personally do not know anyone who suffers from ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease), and I don't suffer from it either. What got me interested about ALS is very simple. I heard about it, and started...
