Thought this was interesting. This is something that I do not know much about but would it be logical to assume that the same treatment might have benefit for those suffering from chronological degenerative brain diseases such as dementia or Parkinson's. The article does not go into too much detail about the physiological process that might have led to the brain tissue damage reversing. Does anyone have any idea on what that might be, could it be CO2 related?
