Eight patients with mild or moderate forms of the brain-destroying disorder took part in experimental transcranial electromagnetic treatment (TEMT).

It involved them wearing a skullcap of magnets which sent electric pulses to break down build-ups of proteins known to stop nerve cells working properly.

Seven of the patients showed a 'highly significant improvement' in tests of their memory, language, attention, behaviour and moods.

That said, if I did not have Alzheimer’s there is no way I would be a test subject.

Great! I was working on a homemade one, but then I forgot what I was doing. Now I can get back to it.

I'm having the same problem. Hope it's not a precursor.

It will probably be like the Rife light used for cancer.

Yep, we tried one of those for cancer. Huge thing on a stand. We had a family member with Alzheimer’s that became very very agitated with that Rife light.
