Medical Procedures Reveal Groundbreaking Evidence of Alzheimer's Transmission Among Humans

During the late 1950s and for approximately twenty-five years thereafter, doctors occasionally administered cadaver-derived human growth hormone (c-hGH) to children with specific growth concerns. This hormone, extracted from the pituitary glands of deceased individuals, was administered to children who fell below the average height range, as reported by New Atlas.
