The information contained on this page is available as a Fact Sheet which you can download from our Fact Sheet page. H untington's disease, which is often called HD, is an hereditary disorder of the central nervous system. It used to be known as Huntington's Chorea or HC. Huntington's disease usually develops in adulthood and can cause a very wide range of symptoms. The disease affects both men and women.

What causes Huntington's disease?
Huntington's disease is caused by a faulty gene on chromosome 4. The gene, which produces a protein called Huntingtin, was discovered in 1993. In some way - which is not yet understood - the faulty gene leads to a damage of the nerve cells in areas of the brain, including the the basal ganglia and cerebral cortex. This leads to gradual physical, mental and emotional changes.

Huntington's Disease Based on a brochure developed by Lynn Rhoades, M.S., CCC-SLP for the Huntington's Disease Society of America www.hdsa.org with financial support of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. Why Communication and Swallowing Symptoms Arise As brain cells become depleted in Huntington' s Disease (HD), problems may develop in the following three areas: motor control (movement); cognition (thinking); and behavior. Speech and swallowing problems arise when the centers of motor or cognitive control are affected that cause muscle weakness or discoordination, chorea, and problems with memory, sequencing, new learning ability, reasoning, and problem solving. Typically, speech and language functions are primarily controlled in the left side of the brain and swallowing function is controlled in the brainstem (at the base of the brain). Cognitive function is believed to be controlled in the right side of the brain. HD typically begins in the caudate nucleus and putamen, which are located in the central part of the brain (core), and spreads to these other control centers, causing communication and swallowing problems as the disease progresses. Communication Problems with communication and cognition vary in nature and severity from person to person. Although there are commonalties, no two people with HD are exactly alike, and as the disease progresses, the variability continues. The following list summarizes problems that people with HD may experience at different stages of the disease. In many cases, a person with HD will experience the same areas of difficulty throughout the course of the disease, with severity varying from stage to stage.

Creatine May Offer Protection to Alzheimers Patients
by Deborah Cooper AlzheimerSupport.com 08-02-2000 - Creatine, a dietary supplement better known in the athletic world than in neuroscience, may have protective benefits for people with Alzheimer’s. According to a study in the June 15 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, mice that were fed creatine experienced significant protective effects on their brains. Creatine is a naturally-occurring compound that affects energy metabolism. According to Ethan Signer, Professor Emeritus of Biology at MIT, neurodegenerative diseases in general are often accompanied by deficiencies in energy metabolism. “It is possible that supplementation with creatine…might in principle compensate for that deficiency.” He noted that there have been previous studies indicating lowered activity of creatine metabolic enzymes in Alzheimer affected brains. The team of scientists drawn from several leading US research institutes, including Harvard Medical School and Cornell University, tested creatine on mice who were artificially given the gene for the neurological disorder Huntington’s disease.

If I was Howard I would be completely opposite from him. I would change my ways because I would want to live as long as possible. I would start an exercise program, stop smoking immediately, try to eat healthier, and visit the doctor regularly. If you can delay or stop a disease from killing you, you should take all the necessary steps for prevention. If I could better my chances of survival over a killer disease by changing my ways, I would follow a regimented program endorsed by my doctor. If you exercise regularly this greatly reduces the risk of heart disease. Although you have a genetic family background of the disease, you can greatly prevent it by aerobic activity like walking 12-15 miles a week to get your blood flowing. This provides more oxygen in your blood that goes to your heart. The environment that you live and work in can play a major role in heart disease. If your environment is stressful, it can lead to high blood pressure. High blood pressure is also caused by being overweight. Exercise can lower high blood pressure. It is also very helpful to eat a healthy diet. In a healthy diet you need low cholesterol and low saturated fat levels. Both saturated fat and cholesterol contribute to clogged arteries which lead to heart attacks. The clogged arteries won't let vital nutrients and oxygen get to the heart. Arteriosclerosis is the hardening of or blocking of the blood vessels. If you lower your cholesterol, the chances of a heart attack decrease, "That means you can cut your risk in half by decreasing your blood cholesterol by 25 percent!" (Heart attack counterattack 98) If you smoke you put yourself at the greatest risk for a heart attack.

1. What is Huntington's Disease?
Huntington's Disease (HD) also called Huntington's Chorea is an inherited disorder of the central nervous system. It causes progressive deterioration with varying symptoms which may include involuntary movements, speech impairment, and intellectual and emotional changes. Symptoms usually appear between the ages of 30 and 45, although they may appear earlier or later.
2. How does the disease get its name?
The disease is named after Dr. George Huntington, an American physician, who was the first to publish a precise description of the symptoms and course of the disease in an article written in 1872.
3 Who Is Affected?
HD is hereditary. Each child of a parent who has HD has a 50/50 chance of inheriting the gene and is said to be at risk. Huntington's Disease affects both genders as well as different races and ethnic groups throughout the world.
