This may seem like old news ("Mediterranean diet is helpful"), but the details suggest something more important. Our Aussie friends published an extremely well-documented study on Oct 30, 2018 of the results of 3 successive PET scans over a 36-month period in a subset of an existing long-t...

Anybody following this one? Different than BACE inhibitors. We're all working on prevention, but there are so many of our family and friends who are already diagnosed, so any progress on the treatment front would be soooo welcome. https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2018/11/08/1647974/0/en/Cogni...

Hi I’m Angie, Going through family death records, I recently discovered my materlineal line from 1790 on have all died of Alzheimer’s. I saw my mom this weekend. She was diagnosed with early onset in her late 50’s and is now entering the final stages of Alzheimer’s at 68... I haven’t slept much sin...

I'm new to the forum. I hope that someone can offer some assistance with finding a Bredesen protocol physician in North Carolina. Any and all options welcome! Trying to get my loved one some help ASAP! Thanks in advance! Welcome Alzslayer! Here's a link to what I hope is a useful list of suggestion...

If I’m not mistaken the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is also deterministic for early onset AD? I think there’s some variance among researchers as to what age is used to indicate early onset. I think you might be thinking of Presenilin, which is a gene linked to risk of early AD. APP is something...

Hi my name is Lynn. I am 53...I have an AZ50 of 86. The risk goes up almost 10 percent each year until by the age of 90, it just says <95. The one thing that was a bit confusing to me was the instantaneous risk. If you look at age 95 it shows 26%. That seems a bit irrelevant if it is next to certai...

Not likely. I was on the AREDS2 for about 4 months before I got on the CNP520/Placebo. And my results for the Amyloid PET scan, which the Gen 2 Study gives you an initial result only on, was Not Elevated. I should be careful on this site not to give out too much info about by case, bit I think this...

I have the same genetic combination. Im taking Areds 2 and I feel like my proper nouns are coming to me a little quicker since. But I can't prove that. I'm 63. Any chance that the proper nouns coming quicker has been since you started on the Generations 2 trial ? If you are on CNP520, as about 68% ...

Hi. I am a participant in the Generation 2 Study. I thank you all for working together on this site. Welcome, johndoealz! Congratulations on being part of what I like to think is an adventurous bunch of Generations Study participants! (If you call people who don't cringe at having MRI machines clan...

Thanks for this site. Briefly, I am male, 70 and in good health in all ways... I have signed up for three online databases for Alzheimers research. Sent a cheek swab to one of them, but the results won’t be made available to me. To find my genetic makeup, I presume 23andMe is the route. I wonder sh...
