Bwaaaa! I'm val val :-( Whenever I've read about COMT I just get lost because little of it fits my result. I hope the tendency toward cognitive decline isn't an exception! Juliegee I told you before I didn't have methylation issues, but I missed a big one by just looking at my Promethease Yasko resu...

Noting the other discussion on similarities between AD, PD and MS. Any chance Dr. Bredesen might want PD and MS patients if he feels the same collapse in synaptic homeostasis applies to them? Might get too messy coordinating with their other protocols/drugs etc. Maybe he could work with Wahls. I kno...

I think one thing that will be interesting is whether any of us in the study will feel and/or test with enhanced cognition :idea: even when we're not clinically symptomatic to begin with. I get some brain fog that seems consistent with allergy symptoms and chronic, excessive stress, but I'd welcome ...

Sorry I missed this post until PM from Juliegee. Hadn't subscribed to the Announcement folder I don't think. I wonder if others are missing it for that reason??? I'm in and crossing fingers as to cost. Sleep studies can be expensive if they require it, but I think some more cost effective - if not c...

Actually with Theranos you still need to go through a doctor, but with the cost savings to insurance companies, they may begin to feel that more blood tests, and more often, will save rather than cost them in the long run. Maybe there will be repercussions abroad. Maybe Theranos will go internationa...

Methinks thou art very wise WA

I was hungry when I posted that haha! I wonder if they just never report on anecdotal studies as a matter of science (even Bredesen mentions it is only anecdotal and needs larger studies. I guess I'd understand that - at least for consistency - but it's not much different from reporting on mouse stu...

I find it interesting that neither Alzforum nor the Alzheimer's Association is reporting this study in their News (http://alzforum.org/all-news and http://www.alz.org/news_and_events.asp). This may be reflective of the comment made in an LA news video about it that researchers are criticizing the wo...

"Researchers led by Mary Jo LaDu at the University of Illinois at Chicago reported that bexarotene squelched soluble Aβ only in mice that expressed human apolipoprotein E4 (ApoE4), a major Alzheimer’s risk factor, and only in brain regions with extensive amyloid deposits. The authors attribute ...

Okay, so ConsumerLab.com measures lead in brewed green teas. It shows results with and without leaves. I have asked them what "if leaf included" means (value for lead is always higher) and haven't heard back. Of course you can't brew tea without leaves, and I'd say it could be explained if...
