Defeating Dementia - Promising news and approaches for progressive brain disorders; installment #5.
Publication Date: Apr 13th, 2007.
Senility Solutions feature now called Defeating Dementia.
Hear our second interview with pathologist researcher Dr. Alan MacDonald, discussing the possible link between Alzheimer’s disease and Borrelia burgdorferi (the Lyme disease spirochete). Might this constitute a “perfect medical crime”? You’ll learn about recent research from the CDC confirming Borrelia’s invasion of human neurons and glial cells. Also how this finding of the bacteria inside neurons and glia could change the Braak staging system for Alzheimer’s. This may be the start of a new era for understanding the pathogenesis of Alzheimers.

And last but not least, is it time for you to suggest that your patients ask their bosses if they can nap 30 minutes on the job? Could be a heart-healthy habit!
