Re: Celebration Thread! Biogen is going to the FDA with Aducan.

Your response precisely highlights my concern with you and your posts. Not once did you mention ApoE4. Despite belonging to this site for 10 years, you have refused to follow the decorum of these threads by such things as “not being bothered” to learn how to quote others. These forums are dedicated ...

Re: Celebration Thread! Biogen is going to the FDA with Aducan.

If you're not here for another celebration, you're in the wrong place! No, you’re in the wrong place. Your celebratory threads misrepresent reality and completely disregard the purpose of these forums as being dedicated to understanding the APOE-ε4 allele and how it affects health. You have co-opte...

Re: Why Krill Oil Beats Fish Oil

yes I read this article. Which article? Dr Patrick's Omega-3 fatty acids from her Found My Fitness website? Or her 2018 paper, the above referenced Role of phosphatidylcholine-DHA in preventing APOE4-associated Alzheimer’s disease "Most of the current supplements of DHA, including fish oil and...

Re: Why Krill Oil Beats Fish Oil

Hi. Be careful what "Experts" you are listening to. Rhonda Patric posted a paper "Role of phosphatidylcholine-DHA in preventing APOE4-associated Alzheimer’s disease" To support her claims, she cited a few studies, which is odd to me that she doesn't understand them. DHA from kri...
