Some other brain anti-inflammatories are curcumin, green tea, ginseng, gastrodin, resveratrol, and ginger.
I take all but the ginseng and I have no idea if they are helping or not.

Of the anti-inflammatories you suggested: curcumin, green tea polyphenols, and resveratrol have all been clinical shown to target TLR2. Ginseng and ginger are better for targeting TLR4 or TLR6. I'm not sure about gastrodin. |

"Then Maguire-Zeiss and her team tested a drug, developed by researchers at the University of Colorado, which specifically targets TLR1/2. They also tested the hypertension drug candesartan, which can target TLR2. Both agents significantly reduced inflammation." In any case, I didn't mean to suggest that the anti-inflammatory properties of these herbs were all solely dependent on targeting TLR. Sorry if I confused you.

As I read it they have found a way to lessen the response of the cells, TLR 1 and 2. But they do not say what happens to the proteins that are still building up within the brain. Their study only says that it stops or slows the inflammation. What happens to the proteins that are still miss folding?

You can try red ginseng from Korea, ginseng is an adaptogen, there is no harm. Ginseng helps to sleep but it's a very good sleep. Buy red ginseng in a jar, it's the best one. It costs around more than C$40. |
