Re: The Startling Link Between Sugar and Alzheimer’s

Yeah, I'd have to say that's an excellent (wiki) presentation, although almost more than I'd like to know even if I only skimmed the material. My current method of blood glucose control consists of mostly a low-carb diet coupled with 3 day fasts followed by 6 days of re-feeding. (Also walk about 14 ...

Re: Exercise-Very Encouraging Study. What is your Exercise Prescription?

Walk for a few miles to thoroughly warm up. Total all-out sprint up a slight hill for 45 seconds. At my age (71) and condition this will make me breathe like a wind-broken horse for several minutes. Walk for another mile, rest, and cool down. Repeat the entire cycle (actually another whole lap) one ...

No cure for Alzheimer’s disease in my lifetime

Fairly sure this applies to me being a 71.5 year old 4/4. So I'm trying to enjoy myself while I'm still able. Hey, no one lives forever.

Re: One More Reason to Exercise: Irisin

As far as exercising, I've noticed when checking my %SPO2 with a pulse oximeter, it will usually go up to 99% when I'm walking. So most likely more oxygen supplied to the brain. Just another tidbit of info. Also, Hope for Alzheimer's sufferers as scientists find memories can be jolted by unblocking ...

Re: Researchers Reverse Alzheimer's in Mouse Models
