  1. I'm just $85 short of my goal of raising $500 for #ALZ research. You can give @ act.alz.org/goto/dougwhitfield

    100% of your donation goes to research.

    Their score is 97%! charitynavigator.org/ein/13303

    International Committee for the Red Cross is just 86%: charitynavigator.org/ein/98600

    The New Orleans Friends of Music is 83%: charitynavigator.org/ein/72602

    This is not to shame anyone, but to give some context to the Alzheimer's Association being good!

    If everyone that saw this gave $5 I would be there in no time!

  3. The #Trump administration wants to address #chronicdisease but just cut funding to a 30-year-long diabetes study.

    It found non-pharmaceutical ways to cut the likelihood of getting diabetes by 58% and now is studying #Alzheimer's + #diabetes—all priorities for RFK Jr.

    Why pull the funding now? Elaine Chen

  4. “BenfoTeam is [a] version of vitamin B1, known as benfotiamine. Researchers said early tests show it could possibly slow down or even reverse Alzheimer’s.

    “This trial is for people 50-89 with mild memory concerns or mild Alzheimer’s disease. People can’t be in a long-term care facility and must be willing to participate in the full 18-month program.”

  5. A possible clue in the hunt for what exactly causes Alzheimer's: It looks like Alzheimer's might be able to be transmitted.

    Based on VERY rare cases of people who had, as children, received growth hormone taken from the brains of human cadavers and later developed early-onset Alzheimer's, it looks like ALZ might be related to prion diseases like Creutzfeldt-Jakob
