Most people agree that Alzheimer’s disease is associated with the death of nerve cells (neurons) in the brain, this results in a loss of memory, social skills and poor cognitive behaviour. The question is why does this occur and can we prevent it or forestall the inevitable decline once the process of deterioration is initiated?
Understanding the biochemical process involved in Alzheimer’s disease, one can intervene and forestall its progression. There is sufficient scientific evidence to support the importance of nutrient intake for brain nerve cell damage, but better still there are numerous studies that show the supplementation with a combination of nutrients will effectively slow the rate of decay and in some cases reverse the deterioration of mental function associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
