Brain stimulator helps slow man's Alzheimer's disease

I see it's been awhile since I have posted here... but today I post up some possible news of a breakthrough in the treatment of early stage Alzheimer's Disease.   Canadian researchers have seemingly proven in early tests that if the memory cells of the brain can be constantly stimulated with continuous electrical current then the deterioration of memory might be arrested.  Thus far, they have only tried this in a few patients, but the majority showed improvement.  Also, it only seems to work in people in the early stages of the disease.  The next step is a larger study some of which will be conducted in the United States.   See the details at the video link below...

  1. During the early stages of alzheimers there are people who will be able to cope very well with the disease but as time progresses, the later stages may prove all too much as the severity of the condition takes its toll and sufferers are sometimes not able to do anything for themselves and become bed-ridden.
