Texas Professor Weighs in on Using B Vitamins to Combat Alzheimer’s

A recent study on the use of high doses of B vitamins in combating dementia has shown promising results. While there have been many studies on Alzheimer’s Disease (a disease typically occurring in the elderly that causes irreparable dementia) and the possible causes, the recent trial performed at Oxford University was the first to show such promising results of B vitamins to potentially delay the disease. The study involved 271 people, all of whom were showing signs of memory issues, or “mild cognitive impairment,” which is often the beginning sign of Alzheimer’s Disease. This ultimately leads to brain shrinkage, which further deteriorates cognitive function.
