I read somewhere that scientists in Sweden discoverd that coffee prevents Alzheimer.
But if you drink lots of coffee you suffer from insomnia and lack of sleep promotes Alzheimer.
Alzheimer, insomnia, coffee
Re: Alzheimer, insomnia, coffee
Isn't lack of sleep an effect and not a cause of the A-word.
Re: Alzheimer, insomnia, coffee
Insomnia is supposed to be a cause because while we sleep the body does a clean-up removing all kinds of waste.
Plaques accumulate in the brains of Alzheimer patients, they are a kind of waste that has got stuck there.

So by this reasoning people who drink lots of coffee and don't have any trouble sleeping will not get Alzheimer's, at least from this cause.
Re: Alzheimer, insomnia, coffee
Yes, not from this cause.
Insomnia can also be caused by alcohol, especially if you quit drinking.
