So what happens when a person gets a retinal degenerative disease like macular degeneration?

My data indicates that I've got about average risk for developing macular degeneration, a kind of blindness.

In many forms of blindness, like retinitis pigmentosa, or macular degeneration, the photoreceptor cells have atrophied or been destroyed.

Plus having a plateful of daily greens will dramaticly lower your risk of cataracts and macular degeneration, a leading cause of blindness in the U.S.

And she told me the nurses hadn't mentioned this that she was blind, that she had been completely blind from macular degeneration for five years.

Hair loss, nausea, muscle degeneration.

This is a degeneration of the retina.

There are 10 million people in the U.S. and many more worldwide who are blind or are facing blindness due to diseases of the retina, diseases like macular degeneration, and there's little that can be done for them.

Which is why we're keeping his body cold to retard degeneration.

Until the only things that you have left are these cells here, the output cells, the ones that send the signals to the brain, but because of all that degeneration they aren't sending any signals anymore.
