    Increased Pufa Oxidation May Be Biomarker For Alzheimers

    In line with the slow public admission that Alzheimer is a metabolic disease, this study found that the development of Alzheimer's can be predicted by a simple analysis of urine. The predictive biomarker in urine is called octenol (1-Octen-3-ol) and is it is formed in humans through the...

    Androgen Deprivation In Men Increases Risk Of Alzheimers

    The study specifically looked at the effects of drugs like finasteride, flutamide, and other anti-androgenic poisons used to "treat" prostate cancer, BPH, and baldness. http://jco.ascopubs.org/content/early/2 ... .6266.full "...Our results support an association between the use of ADT in the...

    Taurine Analog Reverses Alzheimer Disease

    The substance EPPS is essentially a modified taurine to give it longer half-life and probably (inadvertently) make it more toxic in the process. Regular taurine is just fine and accumulates in tissues where it is needed, so it does not need to float around in the blood to do its good. The human...

    Alzheimer Disease Caused By Stress Hormones (cortisol)

    In confirmation of Ray's writing, this latest study claims the stress response pathways are the main environmental contributor to developing Alzheimer's disease. The scientists claimed that blocking the stress hormone receptor did not prove beneficial, but I think they made a mistake here...

    Alzheimer (AD) Caused By Accumulation Of Oleic Acid

    This is perhaps the first study to show that AD is triggered by abnormal accumulation of oleic acid containing triglycerides. What I find shocking is that the discoverer of AD himself found this accumulation back in 1906 but the observation was "dismissed" and "forgotten". If a finding of the...

    Brain Issues And Loss In Ability To Utilize Sugar

    I know that one of the big issues with brain disorders can be the fact that the brain just cant use sugars/glucose anymore as fuel. so when they switch to fat only diets their brain seems to thrive. now i know such a diet is not good in the long run, but what would one do to restore the...

    Lowering Iron (chelation) May Stop Alzheimer Disease (AD)

    Ray has written several times about the dangers of excess iron and its relation to neurodegenerative conditions. He also routinely recommends measuring ferritin and transferrin as more accurate way of assessing iron status. It seems that some people in Australia exhibit proper cognitive...

    Gout May Protect From Alzheimers

    Again, as per Ray's writings, it appears uric acid is protective for the brain. It is already well-known that people with gout never develop conditions like MS and Lupus. http://www.science20.com/news_articles/ ... ase-153750 "...Gout appears to have a protective effect for the brain, possibly...

    Alzheimer Disease (AD) Is Likely A Metabolic Disorder

    The Harvard authors publicly fault the genetic hypothesis for failing to produce a viable treatment for this horrible diseases. The interesting piece is that once again they implicate the Warburg Effect in the pathology of the disease. Btw, the Warburg Effect as a cause of disease like cancer...

    Alzheimers And Cancer Connected - Through Metabolism Of Sugar

    The article reads like both something that came out of Peat's mind and also a horror story. On one hand, scientists are finally starting to realize the importance of the Warburg Effect in cancer, and how brain cells with high metabolism do not succumb to Alzheimer's. On the other, they now claim...

    Aluminium And Its Likely Causative Role In Alzheimer Disease

    Ray has written about the dangers of heavy metal accumulation. Aluminium is in many medical products such as anti-acids, anti-perspirants, vaccines, antiseptics, etc. It is amazing in how many household products for both external and internal use contain this toxic metal and very few people are...

    Chronic Benzodiazepine Use Linked To Dementia And Alzheimers

    Given how popular the benzos are among the mental health professionals, I wonder if the recent epidemic of various dementias including AD is at least partially due to overusing those drugs. For those that do need an anti-anxiety drug, niacinamide works just like a benzo but protects against (and...
