Nicotine for Alzheimer's... What says the OT?

Try creatine too.

There are recent studies that creatine may help with energy in the brain. I'd suggest taking more than the recommended 5g a day. Have him take at least 10g.

I chew and take creatine,I’m sharp as a tack.

Have him blast a little Tren. Supposedly low T is associated with Alzheimers

Convinced that there is a connection after having seen a relative get nagged for years to quit chewing tobacco (Levi Garrett).

Anyway, after chewing for decades he finally gives in to the nagging and quits.

Some months later Alzheimers comes on strong. We talking going from fully functional and sharp, to needing full time care in a very short amount of time.

Never thought about it much until these studies started coming out years later about cognitive benefits of nicotine and made that connection.

I'm convinced that there might have been some prophylactic effect of the nicotine, or, after so many years on it, his brain was so reliant on it where cutting it out was detrimental.

In any event, often wonder if he'd have been better off if not being nagged about the chew and left alone on the basis of the old adage "if it's working, don't frick with it."

I'd throw everything at that fricking evil disease. Nicotine, shrooms, weed, TRT. I'd drink camel piss if a study came out showing it to combat Alzheimers and dementia.

My $.02 on the nicotine subject is that pure nicotine is no more caustic to your health than caffeine. And I seem to read articles periodically pointing to nicotine health benefits.

Probably but I have had to quit a bunch of stuff over the years including caffeine and Nicotine was the hardest thing I ever quit. Took years.

That being said, I would and will take anything to prevent a poor ending but the camel piss would have to be on the rocks.

or do you think there will be some long term drawback to using those like there is with more traditional tobacco products?

---

There is no long term with alzheimers. You're dealing with the now. Whatever works to relieve immediate symptoms. If it shortens lifespan, that's a feature, not a bug, tbh. QoL only gets worse and you should do what you can to forestall it without worrying much about long term consequences.

Also, having Grown up in rural areas and regularly spending time with people who partake now, you don't see people getting mouth cancer from it all that often. For a few years there they were telling people you'd lose your jaw eventually or something.... Didnt see that ever in the mountains and don't see it down here either.

My mother developed Alzheimer’s at a tragically young age, and she basically smoked her entire adult life outside of pregnancy. Of course, she stopped once she finally had to be put in a memory care facility. Reckon I can slip her a zyn.

At a recent doctor's visit, a new doctor recommended he use nicotine pouches or gum. Since starting he has shown a pretty great improvement. Nothing like a cure or anything, but his QoL has certainly improved.

This is 100% correct.

Nicotinic receptors play a major role in preventing Alzheimer’s.

Cigarette smokers have a significantly lower incidence of Alzheimer’s.
