My personal research and experience indicates that there are many substances out there that can disrupt cellular homeostasis and cause protein miss folding...

And yes I invest biotech that seems to have merit and it would of course be great if Anavex can be part of ameliorating the problem.

I doubt any medicine is the right way to address the stats of autism, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, diabetes etc etc. all diseases of lifestyle, western culture and economics.

Blarcamesine seems to be the best solution currently available for restoring cellular homeostasis when this occurs.

I am extremely confident that it is the best solution out there at this time. Yes there may be other solutions that apply in some specific circumstances or will be developed in the future..

But Anavex is the only hope we can look to at this time..

IMO of course.

Older parents may have something to do with it.

Not even herring with chocolate sauce? I doubt any medicine is the right way to address the stats of autism, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, diabetes etc etc. all diseases of lifestyle, western culture and economics.

despite all that, western culture has got us living into our 90s, far more than the ancients or middle ages.

Some truth in what you say at least in regards to Alz(and I suspect diabetes as well) -

"Globally, the lowest validated rates of Alzheimer’s in the world are rural India, where they eat low meat, high grain, high bean, high carb diets. It’s possible that the apparent protective association between rice and Alzheimer’s is due to the fact that the drop of rice consumption was accompanied by a rise in meat consumption, but other population studies have found that dietary grains appear strongly protective in relation to Alzheimer’s disease. In other words, perhaps, don’t pass on the grain, but “pass the grain to spare the brain.”

"This is consistent with data showing those who eat vegetarian appear two to three times less likely to become demented, and the longer one eats meat-free, the lower the associated risk of dementia."
