At least one medical trial found a way to dissolve amyloids in the brain but found that this did not help Alzheimer's. Could this mean that the harmful chemicals, not the amyloids, are the cause of Alzheimer's? If so. expect all methods that dissolve the amyloids without removing the harmful chemicals to be more likely to make Alzheimer's worse than to help it. |
