There is no natural way to “beat” ALS or prevent it entirely. The exact cause of ALS is unknown, but about 10% of cases are inherited, while the rest are sporadic.

The treatment of ALS aims to slow down the disease progression, prevent complications, and improve the quality of life of people living with ALS.

Research suggests a complex interplay of genetic and environmental factors involved in the occurrence of ALS. ALS primarily targets motor neurons, the nerve cells responsible for transmitting signals from the brain to muscles throughout the body.

As these motor neurons degenerate and die, the muscles they innervate weaken and waste away. Over time, this degeneration results in a progressive loss of muscle function, leading to difficulties in speech, swallowing, breathing, and even basic movement.

The diagnosis of ALS is based on the signs and symptoms of upper and lower motor neuron degeneration, as well as tests to rule out other conditions.
