Is music helping Alzheimer's patients considered implausible?
- bawolff 6y agoYeah. Naively i would be more surprised if it didn't (why wouldn't stimulating the brain help with a degenerative brain disease?)
- Nasrudith 6y agoWell it depends on how you define "help". Dementia or Alzheimers is a neural disease that seems correlated with brain plaque - the underlying issue of plaque/neural self cleaning mechanism failures wouldn't be countered even if it makes them feel better and possibly slightly improve function it is still a downward slope of progressive brain damage.
