In this podcast, we are joined by Indu Navar. Indu Navar is the CEO of Everything ALS, a company that prioritizes bringing awareness to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and those who suffer from it. ALS is a neurological condition that affects the victim's motor neurons. This causes muscle atrophy all across the body, which can eventually cause suffocation and even death.

Listen now to learn about:

• The importance of diagnosing neurodegenerative diseases early.
• What happens to victims of ALS.
• What the typical onset age for ALS is.
• How ALS progresses in victims.

We don't know much about ALS and how to treat it. Indu Navar is dedicated to facilitating more investigation into this condition so that doctors can more effectively treat it. This episode explores how advocacy and citizen research plays an important role in solving ALS and conditions like it.
