NEW ORLEANS — After a decade of research, scientists at Harvard and Rush Universities reveal that a natural form of lithium—lithium orotate—may restore memory and prevent brain damage, offering hope for millions affected by Alzheimer’s

Right now, there is no cure for Alzheimer's disease.

There are only medications that help a very small group of patients, for a short period, if used early on.

Now, new research, 10 years in the making, could completely change the future.
