It had already been known the past couple of years at least that the amyloid theory was bunk, and had had data fabricated to back it. I do wonder if the thymus regeneration protocol could have major implications here since it reboots the immune system.
" Based on our past 30 years of research, we no longer think of Alzheimer’s as primarily a disease of the brain. Rather, we believe that Alzheimer’s is principally a disorder of the immune system within the brain"
Yes, We need a new approach to Alzheimer’s disease.
One problem is that the papers posted are scattered across so many threads, it’s hard to find them all, and the search function regularly fails. So it happens regularly that I post a study, and then find out it’s already been posted months or years ago. My proposal is to have a database where you have to input the PMID number of any study you post, and before you post a study, you check to see if this PMID has already been input, then you can do a search by PMID.
Yes it has many bugs. @RapAdmin needs to update it because it uses a very old version of the software. I assume the newest version will solve most of the problem.
It does make sense that a compromised or inflammed immune system would go into protection mode - which can cause more detrimental problems than help.
For some, the immune system reaction to COVID puts certain individuals. Immune cells to mistake the body’s own cells as a threat and react to them, called an autoimmune reaction. COVID -19 can trigger stronger inflammatory responses in males. This inflammation is characterized by an overproduction of inflammatory markers and cytokines, sometimes leading to a cytokine storm and potentially contributing to organ damage.
It is known that rapamycin has a modulating effect on the immune system - preventing the cytokine storm. Keeping the body’s reponse in check and within normal measures.
I believe there is a pretty strong link between a poor gut microbiome and Alzheimer’s. I would imagine a high fiber diet would be important here, as it is for cardiovascular health (notice how both are so closely linked together as new research continues to come out).
