Alzheimer’s Cure

An article written by Dr Michael Fossel talking about telomerase therapy for Alzheimer’s and the work Bioviva and Telocyte are doing to beat this horrific condition.


Reversing Alzheimer’s by Lengthening Telomeres.

There are telomere lengthening compounds available right now for use in research labs. They are not currently available for human use. A group of scientists wants to test these compounds on aging humans now to see if the telomere lengthening effects will induce meaningful age reversal effects.

Telomeres in our cells shorten as we grow older and create cellular havoc that predisposes us to multiple age-related pathologies. These experimental enzymes promote telomere lengthening and in the process offer an intriguing opportunity to circumvent biological aging processes.

Alzheimer’s disease has no cure and evidence points at microglial epigenetic changes being the cause of the inability to remove misfolded proteins in neurons. This proposed study will evaluate the effect the use of hTERT (human telomerase reverse transcriptase) to reverse biomarkers and symptomatology of aging with special target of the microglia cells in Alzheimer’s patients. Misfolded beta amyloids can be effectively cleared by healthy microglia. This could represent a clinical breakthrough in Alzheimer’s treatment that would be immediately available in the clinical setting.

How Alzheimer’s Can Be Prevented and Cured…

As I said in my medical textbook on aging, “If age is a thief, then the greatest treasure we lose is ourselves.”

  1. I wonder why the scientists are closed to testing the herbal Telomerase Activators that have been available for a few years now? Is it because they are natural plant based and Big Pharma cannot make mega $! I have had reversal of a physical genetic fault and my physical body has youthed and my mind has clarity that belies my actual chronological age of 66 young. I consume Product B i considered the most powerful of the herbal TA’s plus a complete nutritional supplement plus a Guts formula to clean me out so to speak. I feel the best ever in my life so far and more youthing to go!
    Here’s to a long and healthy life!
    Be great to get a trial as we already have had terrific success in neurological diseases incl Alzheimer’s!
