New study reveals link between cataracts and vascular dementia
A new study has found that cataracts can increase a person’s risk of dementia, particularly vascular dementia. Also known as vascular cognitive impairment, vascular dementia is characterized by impaired thinking skills caused by obstructions in the blood flow to various regions of the brain. This reduced blood flow deprives brain cells of much-needed oxygen and […]

Groundbreaking study finds first evidence of human-to-human transmission of Alzheimer’s disease
A recent study has found that Alzheimer’s disease can spread from human to human via accidental inoculation with mammalian prions during certain medical or surgical procedures. Mammalian prions are protein-only infectious agents that propagate in the brain and cause fatal neurodegenerative diseases. “We’re not suggesting for a moment you can catch Alzheimer’s disease. This is not transmissible […]

Breakthrough study reveals novel way to reverse Alzheimer’s disease
Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) may have found a way to reverse Alzheimer’s disease. In their breakthrough study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, they reported the use of an unnamed peptide that can interfere with CDK5, an enzyme heavily involved in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Treatment with this peptide caused dramatic reductions […]

Study: Glyphosate can cause Alzheimer’s disease
A recent study has found that the herbicide glyphosate can possibly cause Alzheimer’s disease. Researchers from Arizona State University (ASU) looked at the effects of glyphosate exposure on the brains of mice and discovered that the herbicide can successfully cross the blood-brain barrier and infiltrate the brain. Once it enters the brain, glyphosate can act to enhance levels […]

New study links cell phone radiation to Alzheimer’s disease
A new study published in the Current Alzheimer Research has shown a troubling connection between exposure to cell phone radiation and Alzheimer’s disease. The negative effect on the body, especially the brain, of cell phone radiation has long been known. The study indicates that too much exposure leads to higher levels of intracellular calcium in the brain, a major feature of […]

The song in your head: The brain can recognize familiar songs in just 300 milliseconds
The ability to recall a popular song is exemplified on “name that tune” game shows where contestants have to identify a snippet of music in just a few seconds. But British and Japanese researchers say that humans may actually do better than that: The brain only takes as little as one-tenth of a second to recognize a familiar tune. The finding, published in […]

Study: Walking slowly may be a sign of “accelerated aging” and that you’re more likely to get sick later in life
Slow walkers, beware: You may be more prone to developing serious illnesses later in life. This is according to a team of researchers, who found that 45-year-olds with a naturally slow pace when walking have bodies that exhibit signs of accelerated aging. These signs included impaired immune function and unhealthy lungs and teeth. Even worse was that […]
