Today, we learn that algae are also capable of combating Alzheimer&#8217;s disease.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In China, a clinical study involving over 800 patients revealed that a seaweed-based drug could reduce incipient Alzheimer&#8217;s symptoms. The study began with the observation that regular consumers of seaweed seemed to be more spared from Alzheimer&#8217;s disease.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Geng Meiyu&#8217;s research team at the Shanghai Institute of Medical Materials studied the chemistry of seaweed. They concluded that algae influence the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.fr\/blog\/chlorella-composition-detaillee\/\">composition of<\/a> our intestinal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.fr\/blog\/renforcer-microbiote-intestinal\/\">microbiota<\/a>, helping to prevent Alzheimer&#8217;s disease. Algae are antibacterial and appear to eliminate certain bacteria implicated in the disease. In addition, their cleansing action may limit the accumulation of toxins that are more widely present in the brains of Alzheimer&#8217;s sufferers.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">A seaweed-based drug is currently under study.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Foods to combat disease symptoms<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Once again, Hyppocrates was right when he wrote &#8220;let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food!&#8221; It&#8217;s up to us to take care of our health by choosing our best foods. Let&#8217;s do everything in our power to avoid seeking treatment as a result of good preventive health. In addition to regular physical activity, we need to look after our lifestyle, which must include a healthy, wholesome and varied diet.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Seaweed has already been widely shown to have neuroprotective (2) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.fr\/blog\/chlorella-detox-fonctionnement\/\">detoxifying<\/a> properties, and recent clinical studies have been published (3),(4).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The virtues of <strong><a title=\"Micro-algue : la pomme de terre du 21\u00e8me siecle\" href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.fr\/blog\/chlorelle-spiruline-klamath\/\">microalgae<\/a><\/strong> such as <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.fr\/16-spiruline\">spirulina<\/a><\/strong>spirulina <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.echlorial.fr\/14-chlorella\">chlorella<\/a><\/strong> and many others, in our diet, have been reviewed in reference works that provide documented comparative lists, by Institutes such as Institute of Food and Technology (5) or open access publications PLOS (6).<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Source : this study was published in the scientific journal Cell research.<\/span><br><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Article published on November 08, 2019 by Lucie Dendooven (7)<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alzheimer&#8217;s disease is perhaps the most dreaded illness for all of us, both our loved ones and ourselves.
