Dr Rhonda Patrick and Peter Attia are two very prominent researchers that I follow in longitivity and neural degeneration. they discuss APOE4 as being a strong indicator of Alzheimer’s susceptibility. If you have It in your genome it’s scary but also a lot of research goes into preventative means.
For example anti inflammation diet is a strong factor because any diseases especially Alzheimer’s is triggered by chronic inflammation. They swear by tumeric (curcumin) extract and probiotics.
Also a lot of biomarkers are good for measuring as well as some activittieis like of course exercise but also saunas.
Alzheimer’s is definitely terrifying but leaps and bounds have been made in prevention.
I’m working on a tool to help monitor and track some of these preventative measures: Meports.com
- abledon 8y agoHave you looked into the phenomena of grounding (making the electric potential between your body and the earth 0) as a mechanism for reducing inflammation?
- dannyw 8y agoFor those who want to interpret their own results: Search your report for rs429358; also reported as gs246. (T; T) is the normal variant. (C; C) or (C; T) is estimated to increase your chances by "12x for late-onset Alzheimer's and 61x for early-onset disease"
- mkam039 8y agoIt's difficult to find any scientific paper's by these prominent researchers. Where would one find those? As far as I know, there is no concrete evidence that proves any causal relationship between inflammation and neurodegenation.
- jayzee44 8y agoMaybe no evidence of a causal relationship, but AD is characterized by neuroinflammation, as are many other neurodegenerative diseases.
