Lunasin, a peptide first isolated from soybeans, is associated with an “ALS reversal.” We explain why we once had great hope for this as an ALS treatment. We then review the results from a recently-completed, year-long clinical trial of Lunasin in 50 people with ALS. Unfortunately, no one in this trial had an ALS reversal or even any detectable slowing of their progression, and there were unexpected GI side effects including constipation severe enough to warrant hospitalization.
