Hi, my name is Michelle. I have a question about Alzheimer's. I read that there is a new product for Alzheimer's which is based on the results from the nun-study. They say it does not fight plaques but inflammation of the brains, which is, according to the nun study the root cause of Alzheimer's.
The medicine is called OCW for Alzheimer's. Does anyone has any experience with that? Did someone try this OCW medicine? The website where they sell it and the film documentations there convinced me a lot but before I buy the product I want to ask whether someone has any experience with that.

Thank you so much for your response.

Kind regards
Michelle

I've read the nun study thing but had never heard of OCW-Old Clear Wise for Alzheimer's Disease.I found the website you referred to and that is all I could find on OCW.
and it is called the nun study...
http://nun-study.com/
It says that it is a herbal blend. Based on what herbs the nuns ate?I guess. I have read of other alternatives.One product of interest is Sense of Mind. http://www.northstarnutritionals.com/p/Sense_of_Mind.htm
and you may like to read the one that claims Alzheimer's is Reversible...(if you know anyone that tried this and it worked please let me know)

There are Chinese herbs for Alzheimer's...

I have never heard about anyone trying any of these.
My mother is 80 years old and happy on the Aricept.
If it was me in my late 40s I would not be happy with just slowing it down a little with what they have today...I would be careful though not to damage my kidneys or liver on this stuff that allot of other people have not tried yet...I don't know...everyone has to weigh their own risk.
Let us know what you find out. Welcome Marcus
