Alzheimer’s disease is a slow progressive disease of the brain. It is characterized by the destruction of one’s memory and eventually destroys the brain by disturbances in reasoning, planning, language, and perception. This disease does not normally affect a person until they reach a certain age, in fact, someone over eighty-five has a fifty percent chance of acquiring this disease.
In essence to this, scientists and doctors have developed a drink called Souvenaid that is referred to as a “medical food,” because it is consumed with the guidance of a physician to manage one’s special condition. This drink is composed of uridine, choline and omega-3 fatty acid DHA.
“These three components work together to help restore synapses,” says Dr. Richard Wurtman, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and co-author to this particular study. These key ingredients interact to help rebuild nerve connections in the brain. Souvenaid has been carefully studied in the labs of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was presented at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference on Alzheimer’s disease (the ICAD). It was presented as a medical formula that would improve memory when consumed daily by patients who are experiencing memory loss. The clinic team says results were seen after twelve weeks of daily usage.
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology clinical team took ten years to study and research the ingredients they carefully mixed together to create Souvenaid. This concoction has helped people with Alzheimer’s disease and people with dementia. The medical creation has helped many elderly people and others with memory loss complications.
