Can Cinnamon Prevent Alzheimer's Disease?

Of all the problems that can come along with aging, the loss of mental function is often feared the most... and for good reason.

For many, a gradual decline in physical abilities seems somewhat acceptable. But a disease, like dementia or Alzheimer's, that threatens your memories and ability to recognize familiar faces is another story altogether.

Amazingly enough, compounds in cinnamon may actually offer hope as a future prevention and treatment strategy for Alzheimer's disease.
