Alzheimer's disease presents a significant challenge, not only to patients and their families but also to the healthcare system burdened with expensive treatment options. Enter Leqembi, the new Alzheimer's drug promising relief, albeit at a staggering cost. With an annual price tag of $26,500, the financial strain on patients and taxpayers looms large, with estimates suggesting an even higher expenditure of around $82,000 per patient per year for genetic tests and frequent brain scans, safety monitoring, and other care that might be necessary.
However, amidst the sea of costly medications, a beacon of hope emerges: niacinamide, a humble supplement with the potential to revolutionize Alzheimer's treatment. Unlike its pricey counterparts, niacinamide costs mere pennies a day while boasting remarkable efficacy.
In groundbreaking research, researchers discovered niacinamide's ability to combat Alzheimer's. One study revealed a remarkable 60 percent reduction in tau protein, which is a key marker of the disease, among patients supplemented with niacinamide. Moreover, niacinamide stops another hallmark of Alzheimer's by stabilizing microtubules which are in every cell and are the cellular highways crucial for intracellular transport. This stabilization prevents the cognitive breakdown observed in Alzheimer's patients, offering a tangible pathway to improved mental function.
The evidence doesn't end there. Mice studies further underscore niacinamide's potential, with some of the mice exhibiting cognitive restoration which one of the researchers said that it meant that the mice were "cognitively cured."
Remarkably, niacinamide's safety profile spans six decades of human use, with minimal adverse effects reported, primarily limited to mild nausea in a minority of cases. Adjusting dosage alleviated these concerns, affirming niacinamide's safety and tolerability.
Beyond Alzheimer's treatment, niacinamide presents a compelling case for enhancing overall brain function. Personal testimonials echo this sentiment, with individuals reporting improved memory and cognitive abilities from taking niacinamide.
As we navigate the expensive landscape of Alzheimer's treatments, niacinamide emerges as a beacon of hope, offering a cost-effective, safe, and potent alternative to conventional medications.
So…consider incorporating niacinamide into your daily regimen. I started with taking 1,000 mg once a day and I’m moving up to the recommended three times a day doses. If you have nausea, cut the dose down to 500 mg three times a day.
The outcome is you may impress everyone with how sharp your memory is!
