Health experts have told us for years that eating a healthy diet can keep your brain strong as you age.
But what exactly does “healthy” mean? The term is vague. Exactly which foods promote cognition?
Now, a new study may have identified the single healthiest food for your brain.
Scientists from the National University of Singapore conducted a six-year study. They looked at more than 600 subjects over the age of 60.… Read More
We don’t want to get too excited because this was a lab study. It involved mice. But the results were so impressive that we wanted to tell you about them.
Scientists at USC’s Keck School of Medicine recently announced a breakthrough…
For the first time ever, they succeeded in reversing Alzheimer’s disease.
And they did it without drugs.
The best part?… Read More
Athletes know that a vigorous workout can lead to “runner’s high.” This is a feeling of euphoria you get when exercise-activated brain chemicals boost your mood.
For years, researchers attributed runner’s high to hormones called endorphins.
But new research shows that exercise produces another hormone. It may have more profound effects than endorphins. It improves memory and may protect against Alzheimer’s disease.… Read More
Alzheimer’s disease is one of the greatest failures of mainstream medicine. An estimated 5.7 million Americans suffer from it. And by 2050 that number is expected to more than double.[i]
But conventional doctors don’t have a clue about how to treat the disease…or even what causes it.
Now, a new study shows that Alzheimer’s creeps into your brain in the dead of night.… Read More
There’s one major reason researchers have made little progress in the fight against Alzheimer’s…
They haven’t been able to find what causes it.
Some studies point to genetics. Others say it may be due to brain injuries or even viruses.
Now, a new paper published in the journal Science Advances shows that Alzheimer’s may come from a completely unexpected source.[i]
Scientists took samples of saliva, spinal fluid, and brain tissue from dead and living people.… Read More
Watching a parent or grandparent suffer with Alzheimer’s is not only sad…it’s terrifying. That’s because you may be looking at your future.
Alzheimer’s can run in families. So if a relative has it, the chances are greater that dementia is in your future as well.
But now new research shows there may be a way to stop Alzheimer’s from being passed from one generation to the next.… Read More
