Claim Text:
1. A method of decreasing protein-aldehyde adducts in a human animal diagnosed with Alzheimer's Disease, said method comprising: administering to the human animal in need thereof an organosulfur composition comprising an effective amount of a lipophilic mercaptan selected from the group of allyl mercaptan, propyl mercaptan and propenyl mercaptan, with said lipophilic mercaptan disulfide bonded to the cysteine residue of dietary protein; wherein said lipophilic mercaptan is released from said dietary protein during the process of digestion, and wherein said lipophilic mercaptan reacts with an aldehyde within the lipid membranes of said animal to produce a molecular conjugate of said lipophilic mercaptan and said aldehyde; thereby decreasing protein-aldehyde adducts in the human animal.
