Dopamine Involved In Neuroplasticity Through New Neuron Formation
Dopamine controls the formation of new neurons in the adult brain by switching on genes for new stem cells neuroplasticity, salamander studies show. Such regulation may impact future interventions in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkenson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. Continue reading
Don’t Forget Your Vitamin D To Maintain Memory Fitness
Vitamin D has been linked to cognitive function in the hippocampus and cerebellum and should be taken supplementally to compensate for lack of adequate outdoor exposure in older adults. Continue reading
B12 May Reduce Risk of Memory Loss & Alzheimer’s Disease
Vitamin B12, found in fish, poultry and other meat products, appears to protect against Alzheimer’s disease and memory loss. Continue reading
Heart Healthy Life-style Behaviors May Influence Alzheimer’s Risk
A study of middle aged adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment significantly reduced their risk of converting to Alzheimer’s with treatment for clogged arteries, a known risk factor for heart disease showing that lifestyle decisions impact memory fitness. Continue reading
New Alzheimer’s Risk Gene Damages Brain 50 Years Early
New Alzheimer’s risk gene CLU gene allele C reduces neuronal myelin coverage thereby weakening areas of the brain associated with AD a full 50 years before clinical symptoms are evident. Continue reading
Alzheimer’s Association Study ‘Generation Alzheimer’s’ Defines Baby Boomers Disease And Urgency To Increase NIH Research
The Alzheimer’s Association has published a study entitled “Generation Alzheimer’s: The Defining Disease of the Baby Boomers” which makes the case for greatly increasing the NIH budget for Alzheimer’s research before the 78 million Boomers turn 65 and greatly increase Medicare costs due to Alzheimer’s disease.

Low-grade Inflammation in The Brain May Be Linked to Memory Loss
Low-grade inflammation in the brain as indicated by C-Reactive Protein may be the cause of memory decline. If this proves to be true anti-inflamatory drugs may be useful in treating and or preventing dementias such as Alzheimer’s disease. Continue reading
Widening Search Into Genetics Behind Alzheimer’s Risk Finds New Genes
While Epigenticists make a strong case that genetics is not destiny, it is an important factor in understanding the inherent risk for diseases such as Alzheimer’s (AD). Because our growing over-65 population puts the US at risk for significant increases … Continue reading
Heart Fitness is Memory Fitness Framingham Study Shows
Results of the Framingham Offspring Cohort Study showed a lower cardiac index level is related to lower brain volume which is related to dementia risk. Continue reading
