Wow this is a surprise to me. My other brother knows someone who developed drugs at BIOGEN and he knew little about LBD but sent some info he came across saying there was no genetic component so I just went with that. I can’t begin to understand these studies but did know about the APOE4 gene for AD but never heard that it also applied to LBD. None of us knows our status re that. I have read that alcohol plays no part in LBD but I’m not convinced. He drank a lot and that just can’t be good for one’s brain. Luckily it gives me a terrible headache as it’s “in the blood” as my mom used to say.
Thanks Dr. Fraser.
