Read this too. While I love that this is a natural product from a seaweed, I am not getting my hopes up too high. The strategy is to use the seaweed compound to modify the gut flora to prevent leaky gut and inflammation of the brain. Seems early in the discovery process, and China is speeding up the "official" approval, which would be revoked if it turns out do to work or be safe. Fingers crossed.
Concerned, but hopeful. Introverted, but will talk about science.

I dug around for the paper and have included it here. Comments would be appreciated. What was nice in the news pieces I have looked at online on this product is the Chinese researchers are looking into AD as a multi-factorial disease. Good to see more joined-up thinking.
