The Oxygen Club of California held its annual meeting in March 2008. Several presentations focused on Alzheimer’s disease.
One study had patients taking 600 mg of alpha-lipoic acid per day for four years. Patients with early dementia who were on this regimen exhibited less deterioration in cognitive function.
Another study found that genistein from soy (tested in vitro) may prevent cognitive decline.
A third study fed pomegranate juice to mice used to model Alzheimer’s; researchers found a 50% reduction in the formation of amyloid beta-peptides, which was associated with improved cognitive and physical performance.
