Article focuses on nutrients and supplements as a way to stop or slow Alzheimer's.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Feb. 7, 2013
/PRNewswire/ -- It's quite possible you may have someone in your family
or know of someone who has a friend or loved one that has been
diagnosed with Alzheimer's. According to an article in the March issue
of Life Extension® Magazine, someone in America develops
Alzheimer's every 68 seconds and that rate is projected to more than
double by 2050, to one every 33 seconds.

But just because mainstream medicine has no solutions, doesn't mean you can't push back against this dreaded disease.
The Life Extension Magazine article highlights many compounds that
have much research behind them and demonstrates their ability to target
multiple degenerative steps in the development of Alzheimer's. According
to the article, written by Liam Hawkins,
these compounds may not only prevent the disease from developing, it
can also modify the course of the disease itself, revering cognitive
deficits, restoring memory and delaying the progression of the disease.
The article provides a short overview of 25 nutrients with strong
evidence from human studies that may support their use by those who have
been attacked by the disease.
Also discussed is the role of anti-inflammatory drugs and especially
metformin (derived from the French lilac bush), may help the body break
down and deactivate proteins that contribute to the neurofibrilliary
tangles characteristic of neurons affected by Alzheimer's disease. Most
applications for metformin today have to do with diabetes and insulin
resistance, which are increasingly relevant topics for Alzheimer's
researchers. Overall, this makes for a fascinating theory.
