These molecular systems are deeply complex and will depend on cascades of interactions. Hang tight. The only generic neuroprotective supplement I can recommend is niacinamide (vitamin B3, non-flushing). See:

(yes, in mice! but now in clinical trials for glaucoma and looking good. And yes, glaucoma is not AD, but many/most forms of neurodegenerations are associated with high mitochondrial stress/dysfunction).
- carlmr 3y agoI was wondering what non-flushing meant, and I found this, apparently the non -flushing vitamin B3 is just barely absorbed: http://www.dpic.org/article/professional/niacin-facts-flushing#:~:text=Q%3A%20What%20about%20%22no%2D,does%20not%20produce%20any%20flushing http://www.dpic.org/article/professional/niacin-facts-flushi....
- FollowingTheDao 3y agowow, you really like dismissing pretty obvious evidence that zinc plays a role in Alzheimer's. It is not complex, it is simple. I believe it is a metabolic disease caused by metabolic disease and genetic risk. That will be unique for everyone, but for most people I feel the answer will be poor zinc handling. And Niacin is all you can come up with? Did you know we make niacin if we have enough B6 and B2?
