The Natural Way to Ward Off Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer's disease takes a terrible toll not only on the person who has it, but also on family members who have to watch their loved ones go from being vibrant, active individuals to someone who doesn't recognize family members and can no longer care for themselves.

According to the Alzheimer's Association, an estimated 4.5 million Americans have Alzheimer's disease-the number has more than doubled since 1980. In a Gallup poll commissioned by the association, one in 10 Americans said that they had a family member with Alzheimer's, and one in three knew someone with the disease.

After years of research, most scientists now believe that amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles within the brain are the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease, and that they contribute to the degradation of the neurons in the brain and the subsequent symptoms of the disease. Amyloid is a microscopic protein fragment of a larger protein, called amyloid precursor protein (APP), that is normally found throughout the body. In Alzheimer's disease, this protein is processed improperly, creating a substance called beta-amyloid, which is toxic to brain cells. In a healthy brain, these protein fragments would be broken down and eliminated. But in Alzheimer's disease the fragments accumulate to form insoluble plaques.

Now there is a natural dietary supplement that helps remove and prevent amyloid deposits in the brain, based on the latest research on brain function and herbal supplements. AmyloidClear helps to dissolve and remove amyloid deposits in the brain, enhances brain function, and repairs brain cell damage. This all natural "amyloid busting" dietary supplement directly attacks a leading suspect in the development of Alzheimer's disease and brain aging.

AmyloidClear is a proprietary blend of turmeric extract, ferulic acid, ashwagandha extract, rosemary extract, ginkgo biloba extract, red ginseng, myricetin, vinpocetine, magnesium stearate and huperzine-A, nutraceuticals that have been shown to clear amyloid deposits.

Many of these ingredients have a long history of use in traditional Chinese and Ayuvedic medicine. For example, ginseng is widely used in Chinese medicine to stimulate immune function and to help people cope with physical and emotional stress; more modern research shows that it contains phytochemicals that have demonstrated the ability to improve memory in Alzheimer's disease-model mice.

Turmeric contains curcumin which is used in Ayurvedic medicine for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, and other effects. Ashwagandha, also used in Ayuvedic pharmacology, is a rejuvenative herb. It also helps increase energy and endurance and strengthens the immune system.
