Another failure in search for treatment to slow Alzheimer's

Drugs are not the answer -- NUTRITION is the answer.

Seems to me that we do not yet know what causes Alzheimer's disease, so trying to find a prevention, or a cure, is a matter of trial and error. Until we know what causes the disease, a prevention is extremely difficult.

The drug company researchers have been barking up the wrong tree for the past 30 years.

Prions are the obvious cause of brain wasting diseases like CJD and Alzheimers. They are misfolded proteins that are part of brain chemistry. The normal proteins are water soluble, but when misfolded they become insoluble, causing them to build-up and form blockages in the brain. Most brains produce amyloid plaque with aging, but the plaque only becomes a problem some 15 years or more after the person has ingested prions from sick animals (as in CJD from eating Mad Cow) or eaten food that has absorbed prions from sewage fertilizer contaminated with prions excreted by sick people. And breathing prions in sewage aerosols from aerial spreading or from field dust blown in the wind is 100,000 times more infectious than eating it!

However spreading city sewage on farmland is such a cheap and easy way to get rid of it that governments at all levels are deaf, blind, and dumb regarding the diseases it is causing. Half of all the highly contaminated city sewage in North America is disposed of on America and Canada's prime farmland, with no regard for the infectious prions that survive indefinitely in the soil and water and air. Google "prion disease" and "sewage sludge biosolids" to check this out for yourself!

There is a brilliant study ongoing for alzheimers in South America because of a genetic problem that runs in a family. It is still showing on one of the news shows...CBS or NBC. I forget which one but it is a good show.
