Freedom Bulletin 317
In this bulletin we discuss how to protect the brain from dementia. . .
Dementia is often discussed as a problem of plaques, tangles, or genetics.
While these features matter, it does not fully explain why some brains remain functional despite these problems, while others decline rapidly.
Studies Show this could be due to the amount of Brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) available to the Brain.
BDNF is the fertiliser of the brain.
