Calorie Restriction May Prevent Alzheimer's
Symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease may be calmed by experimental dietary regimens.
A recent study directed by Mount Sinai School of Medicine suggests that experimental dietary regimens might calm or even reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). The study, which appears in the July 2006 issue of the Journal of Biological Chemistry, is the first to show that restricting caloric intake, specifically carbohydrates, may prevent Alzheimer's Disease by triggering activity in the brain associated with longevity.
