How does a person get ALS?
We don't really know what causes ALS, but we do know that it can strike any adult at any time. While the usual age at onset is between 45 and 65, people as young as 17 have been diagnosed in the past. Between 5 and 10% of ALS cases are found in the same families, meaning that they are "familial", and are definitely linked genetically. But for the most part, diagnosis is sporadic and we don't know how it is caused.

When the muscles in the chest area stop working, it becomes hard or impossible to breathe on one's own.Except for having a family member who has a hereditary form of the disease, there are no known risk factors."...See related links.+---------------------------------+Scientists do not really know what causes ALS, although researchers do have a few ideas:In 90-95 percent of people, there is no known cause and scientists call the disease "sporadic ALS."In 5-10 percent of people, the disease is passed down through the families; scientists call it "familial ALS."
