Promising new research suggests that a supplement could potentially reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease . The study discovered that this naturally occurring amino acid can prevent the build-up of harmful plaque in the brain.

Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia , leading to problems with memory, language, and behaviour. It's thought to be caused by an abnormal accumulation of proteins in and around brain cells.

Amyloid is one such protein, which can form plaques around brain cells. A recent study has suggested that taking an oral supplement could lower amyloid levels in the brain.

The research, published in Neurochemistry International, found that arginine, a natural amino acid, can significantly decrease amyloid β (Aβ) aggregation and its toxic eff
