A recent article in Wired Magazine (see link below) discusses someone born without a temporal lobe, that is very much associated with speech...but this person has great vocabulary! How did that happen? Because parts of their brain took over for the missing parts!

Neanderthals & Chiropractic?

Episode 447: Ever hear about a mass sociogenic illness? Mar 08, 2022

Show notes

Mass sociogenic illness? Never heard of it until I read an article in the Atlantic Magazine last week (see below for link). It relates the concept of a functional Tourette's Syndrome-like issue that occurs when young people watch YouTube or TikTok videos of people with Tourette's and, in a way, begin to imitate them. The relevance: they define a Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) differently than Brain-based chiropractors do...but we work on these 'disconnected kids' by reconnecting them to their brains and nerve systems! https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/02/social-media-illness-teen-girls/622916/
