HOMO CYSTEINE as RISK FACTOR; b6, b9(folate), b12 deficiencies contribute to it.
Conclusion; take a good multivitamin and mineral supplement.

<SPAN class="r-description">Subjects from the "Framingham 
                    Study" were examined over an eight-year period. Baseline homocysteine 
                    levels measured eight years earlier were examined in relation 
                    to those individuals who developed dementia on follow-up. 
                    The study concluded that an increased homocysteine level is 
                    a strong, independent risk factor for the development of dementia 
                    and Alzheimer's disease. Occurrence of Alzheimer's nearly 
                    doubled in subjects with the highest level of homocysteine.</SPAN>
