    Of course I can only hope this is for real. That said, I’m surprised of any lack of mention of AI. I thought AI would solve all the problems.

      (AI)zheimers

      Edit: This is when you have a good idea, so you go to chatgpt just to get the thought down and some initial feedback, knowing that you’ll come back later to explore it more, but you never do, but also because you think you “documented” it, your brain forgots about it, and the entire thought is lost forever.

        Is this your idea?

        I should print it, frame it, and give it as a gift to someone…

      They only told you it would in order to get funding. Of course they have very little to show for it.

      You missed this part:

      The pharmacological approach in this study, however, uses a pharmacologic agent (P7C3-A20) that enables cells to maintain their proper balance of NAD+ under conditions of otherwise overwhelming stress, without elevating NAD+ to supraphysiologic levels.

    The theory is sound, but in practice, if it works, you’re trading alzheimers for terminal cancer.

      Ok. Let’s pretend that’s what happens. Many people would gladly make that trade if they kept / recovered brain function. Of course, it would depend on many things like how pain and timeline of the cancer vs dementia.
