We Need To End The Chronic Disease Epidemic - PLEASE READ

Recent breakthroughs in gene-editing technology have brought new hope for curing conditions previously thought to be irreversible, including autism. CRISPR-Cas9, a powerful tool capable of precisely editing genes, has shown promising results in laboratory rats, where it successfully reversed symptoms of autism by targeting and correcting genetic mutations. This exciting development suggests that CRISPR may hold the key to not only alleviating the effects of autism but potentially curing it in humans as well. With its ability to eliminate harmful genetic variations, CRISPR could transform the future of medicine and offer a solution to many chronic diseases.

Chronic illnesses are typically driven by two primary factors: environmental and genetic. Environmental factors include contaminants such as thimerosal, BHT, atrazine, glyphosate, and others. While addressing these environmental factors is an important step toward combating chronic disease, it only represents half of the solution. The genetic factors, which involve hereditary codes passed down from parents, also play a critical role. For instance, if a person carries a gene variant that predisposes them to diseases like Parkinson’s, a gene such as LRRK2, SNCA, PARK2, PINK1, DJ-1, ATP13A2, GBA, or MAPT; there is a significant likelihood that these genes will be passed on to their children, thereby increasing the risk of the next generation suffering from Parkinson’s.

However, this generational transmission of hereditary conditions may no longer be inevitable. CRISPR-Cas technology enables doctors to edit out disease-causing genes from an embryo during its development, substantially reducing the likelihood that child will inherit any hereditary illness.

Lastly, if more parents were to undergo genomic screening during pregnancy, they could identify potential genetic susceptibilities their children may face in the future. This screening could also provide a precise percentage of the likelihood that certain hereditary diseases would be passed on. In short, parents need to edit out harmful genes which could cause hereditarian illness, and Kennedy’s administration needs to further fund the development of this technology, because over the course of decades, CRISPR-Cas would significantly reduce the public’s risk to severe and chronic disease.

Edit: There seems to be a lot of people here who falsely believe Autism is not genetically inherited. Your ignorance on this matter is partly why society has failed to treat many curable diseases. Here’s a list of all the genes which cause Autism for those who fall within the uneducated category.

List Of Genes Which Cause Autism:

  • ADNP.
  • ANK2.
  • ARID1B.
  • ASH1L.
  • CHD2.
  • CHD8.
  • CTNND2.
  • DYRK1A.

No thank you. There are plenty of places to look for the underlying causes of autism, our genes aren’t one of them. Autism has increased exponentially IN RECENT DECADES, so a faulty human genetic code is not to blame. The same is true for the other chronic diseases that have exploded in recent decades.

Totally agree. Genetic splicing has been done with this technology to produce Chymera. Autism is quite often heavy metal poisoning, so chelation, very slowly, is the key, it that is the cause. If the metals are very tightly bound to the tissues, a negarive bood test may be shown. Here then, is the value of hair tests for the metals. Many sites available for this.

I agree, no thank you. We need a new vision of health, not more of the same high tech & chemical interferences in natural biological processes that has been taking place since the chemical industry got involved with health care. Autism is not a genetic disease, although genes may have been damaged by exposure to a toxic environment. it’s a neurological problem that has increased exponentially with an-out-of-control children’s vaccination schedule, the risk being compounded by poor overall health, digestive factors, and other problems potentially due to a toxic food supply and poisoned environment. A lot of independently funded research done over the decades shows that cancer can be cured as can most other chronic diseases and shows clearly that the more technological/chemical interference in natural human biological processes , the sicker (and poorer?) we are all becoming. We need to get back to natural living… not stay on a wheel of using more sophisticated (and very expensive) high tech diagnostic tools that require chemical/surgical “solutions” that end up causing more problems. It’s time for a radical change.

They did say enviromental and listed a whole list of “chemicals” so I think under that ombrella there can be many pollutants, and other substances.

There are 2 things no man should ever change or manipulate…the weather and DNA! Autism has increased because of some vaccines and chemical’s in our food supply. What do you think will happen when those manipulated genes mutate! When you read the results on the crisper studies it all sounds promising and that it may be the answer. Just remember it is done on rats. Are you willing to be the next rat??

I included references in my post, I just didn’t make a dedicated section to them, rather I linked the URL’s in keywords. But I will make the references a bit clearer.

Getting rid of environmental aspects is only half the battle, as I said in my post, chronic illnesses are caused by Environmental and Genetic aspects. So, getting rid of contaminants which have been proven to cause Autism (such as Tartrazine and Red #40) won’t do much good if we’re all still genetically susceptible to such. Diseases are passed down generationally through genetic inheritance. Splicing out the genes which cause these illnesses is quite literally the only way to definitively end all chronic disease as we know it.

Exactly, it’s not a good idea in your opinion.
But this is a good idea based on scientific fact.

You’ve all neglected to understand the point of my post…
I said disease is caused by ENVIORMENTAL and GENETIC aspects!
This is a FACT that cannot be ignored.

Let me elaborate…

This a list of genes which cause autism:

  • ADNP.
  • ANK2.
  • ARID1B.
  • ASH1L.
  • CHD2.
  • CHD8.
  • CTNND2.
  • DYRK1A.

Anybody who carries these genes will pass them along to their children, thus increasing the odds that child will suffer from Autism. But using Crispr-Cas to remove those genes would decrease their chances of suffering from Autism.

This is like genetics 101, please do your own research guys, because I shouldn’t have to explain this to you.

Edit: I made a separate post so you can further understand how genetic science works.

False, here is the list of genes which cause Autism:

  • ADNP.
  • ANK2.
  • ARID1B.
  • ASH1L.
  • CHD2.

Again, false, Autism is inherited through your parents’ genes, and here’s a list of all them.

  • ADNP.
  • ANK2.
  • ARID1B.
  • ASH1L.
  • CHD2.
  • CHD8.
  • CTNND2.
  • DYRK1A.

Dude, you’re like the text-book definition of an evangelical, please take your religious propaganda elsewhere. By the way, gene editing therapy was used to cure Sickle-Cell disease in a teenager. You’re basically saying “Hey, if god gave somebody a chronic disease, then they should be forced to live with it, instead of curing them, and improving their quality of life.”

That’s so screwed up!

These diseases were virtually unheard of 100 years ago, so our genes aren’t the problem. Your assertion that getting rid of contaminants without changing our genes “won’t do much good” is unsound logically and scientifically.

Are you ok dude? Fauci is irrelevant to any of the points I made and what he did is very different from what I’m suggesting.

Autism being genetic is ludicrous propaganda. Of course you can find genes that are correlated with it, there will be genes correlated with pretty much every disorder, because they interact with it is some way. Our genes aren’t the cause and you know it.

100 Years ago people were trying to do exactly what I’m suggesting!
It was called eugenics back then instead of genetic science.
