(still can't figure out if that website is "AI" but they have great articles)
- plaguuuuuu 4mo agoYep it's all AI-generated. It's annoying that they have a fake human as the author but whatever, it's the interslop.
- littlexsparkee 4mo agonote this is only the case for those with early-stage cognitive decline. for healthy individuals, it actually has neuroprotective effects. > Glucosamine mimicked the effects of a low-carbohydrate diet in a prior animal research, resulting in increased lifespan [21], and studies consistently showed that a low-carbohydrate diet protects against dementia [22, 23]. An animal study suggested that glucosamine may promote cognitive function by impacting energy metabolism [20]; other animal models have indicated the neuroprotective and anti-neuroinflammatory effects of glucosamine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10052856/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10052856/
