Bad dental hygiene linked to Alzheimer's

A study of brain samples from deceased dementia patients found that they contained unusually high levels of Porphyromonas gingivalis, a type of bacteria which causes gum disease.

Artificial butter flavoring ingredient linked to key Alzheimer’s disease process

A new study raises concern about chronic exposure of workers in industry to a food flavoring ingredient used to produce the distinctive buttery flavor and aroma of microwave popcorn, margarines, snack foods, candy, baked goods, pet foods and other products. It found evidence that the ingredient, diacetyl (DA), intensifies the damaging effects of an abnormal brain protein linked to Alzheimer’s disease. The study appears in ACS’ journal Chemical Research in Toxicology.

Lack of Sleep Compromises the Brain

After a night of no sleep, even a healthy brain has elevated levels of amyloid-beta, the protein that characterizes Alzheimer’s Disease.

 

Polluted Air May Prompt Alzheimer’s

Exposure to very low levels of ambient lead in the air may raise the risk of conversion of mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer’s Disease.

 

Chronic Sleep Disturbance May Trigger Alzheimer's Disease

A self-rated poor level of fitness in a person’s 50s may predict onset of dementia within the next three decades.

Cold Sore – Alzheimer’s Connection

Infection with herpes simplex virus – often signaled by cold sores – may raise the risk of Alzheimer’s Disease.

Patients Reporting Memory Problems Often Right

Patients who reported changes in their memory were nearly three times more likely to develop memory and thinking problems later in life.

Diagnostic for Early Biomarker of Cognitive Decline

A MRI technique can detect signs of cognitive decline in the brain before symptoms appear, thus offering the possibility of early intervention.

Physical Activity Keeps White Matter in Shape

Regularly engaging in moderate-to-vigorous exercise appears to help protect the brain by maintaining the structural integrity of white matter.

Pomegranate Compound Addresses  Neuroinflammation

Compound derivatives of punicalagin may lead to a treatment for Alzheimer’s disease.

Low Vitamin D Linked to Dementia

Older men and women with lower blood levels of Vitamin D may be at increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease.

Anti-Aging = Anti-Alzheimer’s

Tenets of the anti-aging lifestyle improve cognitive performance, among older men and women at-risk for Alzheimer’s Disease.

Compound from African Tree May Protect the Brain

The leaves and bark of the Voacanga africana tree may hold potential to ward off Alzheimer’s Disease.

Brain-Saving Benefits of a Healthy Diet

Measurements suggest that the Kakadu plum (Terminalia ferdinandiana) is seven-times more potent in antioxidant capacity than curcumin.

Early Detection IDs Alzheimer’s Disease

The Standard American Diet (“SAD”) may prompt elevations of a blood marker that characterizes Alzheimer’s disease.

Molecular Basis of Omega-3s for Alzheimer’s Disease Revealed

Dietary supplementation of omega-3 fatty acids may beneficially affect a dysfunction in the inflammatory response pathway.

Banned Pesticide Linked to Alzheimer’s Disease

Exposure to DDT may increase a person’s likelihood of developing Alzheimer’s Disease later in life.

New Gene Target for Alzheimer’s Disease Identified

A stem cell model reveals 14 genes that may be implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease. One gene suggests the role of inflammation in the brain.

Vitamin E Slows Functional Decline

One of the largest and longest-treatment trials involving Alzheimer's patients supports the utility and efficacy of alpha-tocopherol to slow functional decline.

Cholesterol May Predict Alzheimer's Marker

A person's patterns of LDL cholesterol and HDL cholesterol may influence the levels of beta amyloid protein in the brain, that typifies Alzheimer's Disease.

Concussions May Contribute to Alzheimer’s Risk

People with memory and thinking impairments and a history of head trauma have levels of amyloid plaques 18% higher than those with no head trauma history.

Alzheimer’s Trends Worldwide

The number of people living with dementia worldwide in 2013 is now estimated at 44 million, and will reach 135 million by 2050.

South American Berry May Protect from Alzheimer’s

An extract of the palm acaí berry (Euterpe oleraceae Mart.) inhibits beta-amyloid protein aggregation, in a lab model.

Spearmint & Rosemary in the Battle Against Alzheimer’s

Enhanced extracts made from special antioxidants in spearmint and rosemary improve learning and memory, suggests data from a laboratory animal model.

Middle-Age Blood Pressure May Predict Alzheimer’s Disease

Middle-aged men and women with elevated pulse pressure may be at a higher risk of having blood markers of Alzheimer's Disease later in life.

Poor Sleep Raises Alzheimer's Biomarker

Shorter sleep duration and poorer sleep quality may raise a person's levels of beta-amyloid, an Alzheimer's disease biomarker.

 

Cleanliness May Contribute to Alzheimer’s Risk

Theory posits that people living in industrialized countries may be more likely to develop Alzheimer’s Disease as a result of greatly reduced contact with bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms.

The Mind Benefits from a Mediterranean Diet

Systematic review of related research confirms a positive impact on cognitive function.

Iron Implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease

UCLA (US) researchers suggest that iron accumulation may be the root cause of the memory-robbing disorder.

New Biomarker of Alzheimer’s Disease

Mitochondrial DNA levels, present in cerebral spinal fluid, emerges as a novel biomarker of Alzheimer’s Disease – at least a decade before symptoms manifest.

Carbs & Sugars Raise Risk of Alzheimer’s Disease

Eating a diet laden with carbohydrates raises the risk of developing mild cognitive impairment by four times; sugars raise that risk 1.5 times.
