I have read recently, in Dr. Andrew weil's latest book healthy aging, that athletes who are very lean & who train alot are more likely to get als because the neurotoxins fromthe food & environment lodge in their muscles. Has anyone else heard of this or experienced this? I am very athletic & am concerned.
Thanks for your feedback!
