Highly significant finding, SC.

My mom's best friend suffered from early-onset Alzheimers, and she went from brilliant to an almost total loss of mental ability--and finally death--in a matter of a few years. I am cautiously hopeful that people will build on this research and develop effective interventions.

SMOKING PREVENTS ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE! That's right, though the MSM and our U.S. Surgeon General don't wish to publicize this FACT. Does this mean EVERYONE should start smoking? NO! But it is supposedly our Surgeon General's DUTY to TOTALLY inform us of all remedies in the matters of disease. The S.G. "cherry-picks" due to the WAR AGAINST SMOKING, and NOTHING may be said in its favor. Aren't we supposed to be FULLY INFORMED so we may make our own decisions? Or has the Nanny State completely taken over?
Just thought you'd like to know. -

I should have "bookmarked" the news article stating what I have posted. I will try to find in again. Any study showing smoking as beneficial is TABOO in our present society. Do the health problems associated with smoking out-weigh the health/mental problems vis-a-vis Alzheimer's disease?----that's a choice an informed individual must make for themselves. Once again, I AM NOT encouraging anyone to start smoking. However, I am encouraging everyone to inform themselves as much as possible when it comes to diseases and their prevention. Who could be against that? Only those with an agenda!

Smoking is not a cure for it nor does it cause it,smocking is bad for you but it cant cure alzheimer's everyone blame smoking on every illness we have or if you stop smoking you'll get better. What about someone who has never smoked in their life and suffer for this? There are young children not many but they have alzheimer,s. I have taken care of someone very dear to me and its was the worst days of my life and hope nobody ever has to go through what I did. it's not fun.
