Researchers from the University of Geneva, Switzerland, have made a surprising, even shocking, breakthrough in treating adult dyslexics.<br />Dyslexia is commonly known as a reading disorder. Affecting up to 10% of the population, it entails lifelong problems with written material.<br />According to UPI, the researchers say in a new study that electrical stimulation of the brain improves reading accuracy in dyslexic adults.<br />Transcranial alternating current stimulation was found to improve reading accuracy and the ability to discern how words sound or are pronounced.<br />Transcranial alternating current stimulation is a non-invasive procedure that delivers low-dose electricity to the brain over a period of 20 minutes.<br />At a dose of 30 hertz or volts, the researchers saw a significant improvement in reading accuracy in 15 adults with dyslexia.
