A Cure for Alzheimer's Disease?

Alzheimer's is a terrible disease.  I watched a friend suffer and eventually die from it.  It there is a way to prevent, or even cure and reverse Alzheimer, it cannot come soon enough.


"April 11[2018 - Ed.] (UPI) -- Scientists at an independent biomedical research institution have reported a monumental breakthrough: The cause of the primary genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease, and a possible cure for the disease.
Researchers at Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco identified the primary genetic risk factor for the disease, a gene called apoE4. They were able to create a harmless apoE3-like version by inserting a class of compounds into it."
