Alzheimer's disease

   This is a huge topic. I only come on today to deal with frustration with a 2008 article from the National center for Contemporary and Alternative Medicine.

http://nccam.nih.gov/research/results/spotlight/062408.htm

   It's kind of interesting until you realize that this is not Alzheimer's in *humans*- this is Alzheimer's in a *mouse model* of humans. Hey guys, I just want to say something kinda obvious. *WE ARE NOT MICE!* Give the grape seed extract to humans, then report your data.
   Back later with more..
