阿尔兹海默症

Although old age is the single biggest risk for dementia, Alzheimer´s is not a normal part of aging.

尽管高龄是唯一的引起失忆的最大风险，阿尔兹海默症却不是衰老的正常组成部分。

Supplements based on chemicals in apple skins, wine and spices might fight those toxic chemicals.

苹果皮、酒和辣椒里的化学物质也许能够抵抗上述有毒物质。常吃能有效预防阿尔兹海默症。

When that happens, communication among nuerons breaks down, leading to confusion, forgetfulness and other hallmark symptoms of Alzheimer´s.

细胞的退化使得神经元之间的沟通中断，由此导致困惑、健忘和其他阿尔兹海默症的典型症状。

Findings that small clumps of a protein in the brain (already linked with Alzheimer´s) interfere with memory, and so may be a good target for new drugs;

研究发现大脑内（与阿尔兹海默症相关的）小块蛋白质凝结干扰记忆功能，可能成为新药研发的好目标；

These compounds, which are all similar in chemical structure, have promising characteristics, but the human body does not easily absorb them, and they can be toxic at very high doses.

这些复合物的化学结构相似，在治疗阿尔兹海默症方面很有前景。 但人体不易吸收这些物质，而且用量很高时，它们会产生毒性。
