Alzheimer’s Cases Expected to Quadruple by 2050
Now why do you suppose that is?

Alzheimer's is the politically correct name for Mad Cow Disease.

Alzheimer’s cases around the world to quadruple by 2050

A “global epidemic” of Alzheimer’s disease could take hold by 2050 with the number affected set to quadruple, experts predicted yesterday.

The number of people living with the condition, which is estimated at 26 million worldwide, will grow to more than 106 million by 2050, with about half of them needing high-level care, the researchers said. The Alzheimer’s Society said that about 1.7 million people will be living with the condition in the UK by 2050.

There are currently 700,000 people with dementia in the UK and 60,000 people die from it every year.

Instead of cleaning up the toxins, chemicals and diseases in our food, maybe some genius can develop a mandatory childhood vaccine for Alzheimer's.

Yeah.. that's what we need.

Personally, I believe that it's because of mad cow or Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE). Stop eating unsafe beef.

It take 10 to 40 years to manifest in humans that have eaten tanted meat.

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) has earned the pithy nickname "mad cow disease" thanks to the invidious symptoms presented in affected cattle, i.e. staggering, tremors, involuntary muscle spasms, bewilderment, hypersensitivity to auditory and tactile stimuli, and other examples of seemingly "mad" behavior.

Like BSE, Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) is also a transmissible, invariably fatal spongiform encephalopathy with a prolonged incubation period that leaves sponge-like holes in a victim's brain. CJD, however, is the human version and this includes a newly identified variant of CJD, linked to BSE in British cattle.

"In humans," says author and environmentalist, Peter Montague, "the BSE-like disease is called 'new variant Creutzfeld-Jacob disease,' or nvCJD for short. CJD has been recognized for a long time as a rare disease of the elderly-very similar to Alzheimer's disease-but nvCJD is different. It has somewhat different symptoms, a different pattern of disintegration in the brain, and it strikes young people, even teenagers. Between 1995 and early 1998, at least 23 people died of nvCJD in Britain and at least one in France, the oldest of them age 42 and the youngest 15." (Yet the Times is "startled" by the rise in dementia in younger and younger people.)

Do the pharmaceutical companies make big money on Alzheimers medications?

I'm sure the nursing homes and hospitals do, but the pharm houses run the show.
