FDA Approves First Blood Test to Detect Alzheimer’s

Newsmax: U.S. health officials on Friday endorsed the first blood test that can help diagnose Alzheimer’s and identify patients who may benefit from drugs that can modestly slow the memory-destroying disease.

The test can aid doctors in determining whether a patient’s memory problems are due to Alzheimer’s or a number of other medical conditions that can cause cognitive difficulties. The Food and Drug Administration cleared it for patients 55 and older who are showing early signs of the disease.

More than 6 million people in the United States and millions more around the world have Alzheimer’s, the most common form of dementia.

The new test, from Fujirebio Diagnostics, Inc., identifies a sticky brain plaque, known as beta-amyloid, that is a key marker for Alzheimer’s. Previously, the only FDA-approved methods for detecting amyloid were invasive tests of spinal fluid or expensive PET scans. more

  1. There’s a very serious omission on Newsmax’s part in this article. In fact, it’s a major FAIL.

    For 16 years, the research into Alzheimer’s and beta-amyloid plaque has been falsified. Just do a search for “Alzheimer’s scandal amyloid” and do a little reading. It’s a 100% sure bet that this test was designed far before the scandal arose. I’d want to look very very closely into the reliability of the testing that led to the licensing of this product.

  2. If you haven’t watched RFK jr in front of the ignorant assholes you need to. I’m a guy that’s been into health a fitness before it was cool and this guy gets it. One thing he said, and I’m getting this totally wrong, we don’t need anymore money. Our budget increased 33% thru the Brain Dead Biden admin with no results. It’s not a question of money. Boom.

    You know I just read your link, and the amazing thing to me is they never mentioned RFK just stopped this shit cold a couple weeks ago. I think he gave food manufacturers something like 6 months to phase it out. Since then some states have said oh no bull shit, stop it now. Did I miss it? Anyway, that’s the truth. Pretty fucking weird.

  5. Aluminum. They spray our skies with aluminum. Vaccines are loaded with aluminum. Many personal products (anti-perspirant) contain aluminum. Aluminum cookware, food in aluminum cans, common baking soda contains aluminum. Seeing a trend?
