Supplement For High Blood Pressure Clears Signs of Alzheimer’s in Mice

By David Nield – Science alert

A build-up of sticky proteins in the brain is a key hallmark of Alzheimer’s, thought to be closely linked to the disease’s progression. Now scientists have found a new way to clear these harmful clumps in the brains of mice and the eyes of fruit flies.

This potentially promising Alzheimer’s treatment involves an oral dose of arginine, an amino acid already used as a medication for conditions including chest pain and high blood pressure.
