SUPPLEMENTS TO PREVENT ALZHEIMER DISEASE
ALZHEIMERS DISEASES IS PREVENTABLE AND TREATABLE!
Folate, Vitamin B-6 and Vitamin B-12 can reduce blood levels of the amino acid homocysteine, which is linked to an increase Tau, increase age related shrinkage of the hippocampus and double the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. In order for this to work, the supplements must undergo a biochemical process called methylation and many older people don’t “methylate” well, rendering the supplements nearly useless. To avoid the problem, take a form of the supplements that already is methylated (or activated) folate as L-methylfolate, B-6 as pyridoxal-5-phosphate and B-12 as methylcobalamin. Talk to your doctor for these supplements. Alzheimer’s disease is not a disease of the old, increasingly Alzheimer brain markers are seen in the brain of the 20 year old.
