Boosting Brain Protein Cognitive Decline
Alzheimer’s Research: Boosting Brain Protein May Slow Cognitive Decline
The accumulation of the protein amyloid-beta in the brain is one of the primary theories explaining Alzheimer’s. Evidence from University of Cincinnati researchers points to the reduction of amyloid-beta in the brain as the cause of cognitive decline. Researchers believe increasing brain protein levels could improve cognition. While scientists still don’t know the exact cause … Continue reading "Alzheimer’s Research: Boosting Brain Protein May Slow Cognitive Decline"
Light pollution Alzheimer’s risk
Light Pollution may be Linked to an Increased Alzheimer’s Risk
Overexposure to light pollution at night may increase the risk of acquiring Alzheimer’s. In a recent study, researchers discovered that light pollution had a stronger link with Alzheimer’s prevalence in adults aged 65 and younger than any other risk factor investigated. Light pollution affects around 80% of the world’s population and is associated with several … Continue reading "Light Pollution may be Linked to an Increased Alzheimer’s Risk"
