Somehow Alzheimer is a popular subject at this forum.

Alzheimer is linked to cholesterol lowering drugs. That is the reason why these drugs have a warning that it may cause Alzheimer. But more interesting: Dr Bredesen has a program to reverse Alzheimer. In a mini study with 10 patients Alzheimer was reversed in 9 patients with remarkable results. His article is here: http://www.impactaging.com/papers/v6/n9/full/100690.html. Dr Bredesen is now doing a followup study with 35 patients. His successful protocol is not based on gene theory.


That paper you link to says absolutely nothing about cholesterol-lowering drugs.
