Researchers have demonstrated that a bacteria can travel through the olfactory nerve in the nose and into the brain in mice, where it creates markers that are a tell-tale sign of Alzheimer's disease.
The study showed that Chlamydia pneumoniae used the nerve extending between the nasal cavity and the brain as an invasion path to invade the central nervous system. The cells in the brain then responded by depositing amyloid beta protein which is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease.
The olfactory nerve in the nose is directly exposed to air and offers a short pathway to the brain, one which bypasses the blood-brain barrier. It's a route that viruses and bacteria have sniffed out as an easy one into the brain.
There are some simple steps to look after the lining of your nose that Professor St John suggests people can take now if they want to lower their risk of potentially developing late-onset Alzheimer's disease.
"Picking your nose and plucking the hairs from your nose are not a good idea," he said.
"We don't want to damage the inside of our nose and picking and plucking can do that. If you damage the lining of the nose, you can increase how many bacteria can go up into your brain."
Smell tests may also have potential as detectors for Alzheimer's and dementia says Professor St John, as loss of sense of smell is an early indicator of Alzheimer's disease. He suggests smell tests from when a person turns 60 years old could be beneficial as an early detector.
"Once you get over 65 years old, your risk factor goes right up, but we're looking at other causes as well, because it's not just age—it is environmental exposure as well. And we think that bacteria and viruses are critical."

How good could it have been having all those covid giant arse swabs stuck up your nose near your brain?
Or worse:
Something they missed in this “article”-— the fact that bad hygiene of picking one’s nose and not washing hands thus innoculating food and drink items with the nasty bacteria trapped in the goo. The bacteria then proven to be the primary CAUSE of stomach ulcers— resistant (to pH 2 acid in the stomach) grew on the stomach lining and destroyed the protective cells which prevent acid from eating the stomach lining.
No more protective secretions— and bingo— perforating ulcers resulted. This was proven against all the Medical Machine who did not like it one little bit by brave researchers who published. The treatment of ulcers is both hygienic and also a regiment of antibiotics which kills the booger sourced bacteria=Helicobacter pylori.
I never trusted those Covid tests. There was no reason for the extreme intrusion. Anything they can learn from that could be learned by a normal swab. They are determined to get you one way or another.
Who’s paying for such research?
“what happens if you scratch your ass?”
Wash your hands before you pick your nose or you might regret it.
Not all dementia is Alzheimer’s.
.
I thought it was from Babylon Bee.
You ROTFSYAF
1 Alzheimer's.
2 Vascular dementia.
3 Lewy’s Body Disease.
4 Frontotemporal.
5 Alcoholic dementia(often called ‘’wet brain) 6 Parkinson's. I've worked in three nursing homes over the years here in NJ. It's the law here whether you're the director of a nursing home or a mop jockey like me you're required to attend ‘’in house’’ training /information sessions to learn about all issues concerning dementia.
16 years ago my mother succumbed to Alzheimer's.
I miss her everyday.
My sister in law died of Alzheimer’s…..forgot how to swallow at the end,
My mother had dementia.
.
My deepest sympathy.
My mother was an RN. She was the operating room nursing director for a large hospital in northern NJ.
She died in January 2006.
Miss her everyday.
I have automotive/driving nasel picking problem.
