Also on a more curious note, could internal parasites cause the same symptoms as JHD? We would like to know if there are other options out there just in case.
Thank You and Have a Great Day! Lynn
Juvenile Huntington's Disease
Trapped emotions may be a contributing factor because it may increase oxidative stress and inflammatory markers, but high dose vitamin B1, also known as thiamine HCL along with Biotin, may be useful in helping your partner to fight Huntington's disease as discussed here :
Here is a relevant quote from the article :
' A research team led by the University of California, Irvine has linked the mutation that causes Huntington's disease to developmental deficits in the brain's oligodendrocyte cells that are caused by changes in metabolism. They found that high doses of thiamine and biotin can restore normal processes. '
Your partner can continue to work on releasing trapped emotions, but hopefully he includes high dose B1 and biotin in his plan as discussed in the article. Both have very good safety profiles even at higher dosing levels. Here is a link to the full study which you can show to your partner's doctor :
