If you’ve ever known anyone with Alzheimer’s Disease, you know how devastating this horrible problem can be. The afflicted person gradually loses everything that had made them who they are. Their memories fade. Their ability to relate with others, even their closest family members, erodes. Ultimately they’re in complete isolation and completely unable to care for themselves..
As bad as it is for the person with Alzheimer’s, in some ways it’s even worse for the family. It’s horrible to watch this slow deterioration take place. Caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s have extremely high rates of depression.
It would be great if we could prevent this disease. We may be making some progress in that direction.
While we don’t have a perfect answer yet, a recent study in The Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease reports some interesting findings. The study shows that two safe and readily available supplements may help in preventing Alzheimer’s.
