Its the same story with drugs like Aricept. Alzheimers is due to plaques and tangles isn't it? Acetylcholinsterase inhibitors only offer symptomatic improvement. If thats your only option then fine, but we do know that other (proactive strategies) can actually put off Alzheimer's onset. Thats more significant.
I hate the idea of becoming a Darth Vader (more machiene now than man). I remember when I was taking like 6 drugs at one point, I was told I'd never see the light of day off drugs. I felt like a freak. My poor brain.Linkadge
