Watch for the information about cholesterol-related biochemicals and

the body's defense against alzheimers--hope somebody follows up with

research on a possible link between lowering cholestrol and alzheimers.

In this group, we've seen anecdotal evidence...

Group; I got this message from a gentleman who has a great reference

to a great source of information about statins and related subjects.

I't's pretty self-explanatory, so I'll get ouf of the way.

Re: link between alzheimers' and cholesterol

Hi, Linden—

 

For some reason I can’t figure out how to respond .at the group level

(alzheimer’s [hah!])

 

Seriously, I have heard Seneff speak twice at Weston A Price

Foundation annual meetings and she is fantastic.  She is untouched by

corporate interests!!  Her 65-yr old husband was diagnosed with heart

disease and put on statins.  is a senior researcher at the

MIT Artificial Intelligence Lab, so her research skills and ability to

think are top-line, and she put them to good use.

 

In November 2010, I heard give a talk on how she found a link

between statins and alzheimers.  She has also done some other related

work.

 

If you want to research her findings, go to her home page:

http://people.csail.mit.edu/seneff/.  I warn you, gets very

technical, but you will likely be able to make some headway into

understanding her findings.  She has a number of papers listing on her

home page.  Are there others in the group who might be willing to take

on reading some her work and report back?

 

Please do feel free to share any of this with our chat group.

 

Best,
