Research over the past several decades has led to a model of Alzheimer's disease as a network insufficiency that is often the result of a protective response to specific insults. Four major groups of contributors lead to this insufficiency: inflammation, toxins, energy reduction, and trophic reduction. Ancestral health impacts all of these groups. Identifying and targeting the contributors for each patient has led to the first reversals of cognitive decline in patients with Alzheimer's and pre-Alzheimer's, and a recent clinical trial supports this therapeutic approach.
