Part 2 of my review of a recent study on the potential benefits of cocoa extract in helping cognitive decline. I was hoping to find the evidence but alas, according to this study, there are none. The study did find, however, a silver lining.

June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month…what better time to learn about the science of Alzheimer's disease (AD)? AD progression is marked by the accumulation of toxic amyloid beta (Aβ) proteins – including protofibrils – in the brain that lead to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline.

🧠 New NIH-funded research shows that Alzheimer’s disease may harm the brain in two phases. The early phase happens slowly and quietly, damaging brain cells before symptoms appear. This highlights the importance of detecting these early changes to understand Alzheimer’s progression better. At Qr8 Health, our mission is to empower healthcare providers with the knowledge to detect cognitive decline as early as possible. We are committed to supporting advancements in Alzheimer’s research that bring us closer to understanding and addressing this devastating disease.

Including more underrepresented populations (URPs) in #AlzheimersDisease research is crucial for producing generalizable research findings and elucidating health disparities. For URPs, they exist in prevalence, incidence, clinical dementia features, postdiagnosis survival, neuropathological features, and biological and medical risk factors.¹,² Join the conversation at this year’s #AAIC24 #AlzheimersAwareness
