Predicting "The End Of Alzheimer's"

It would be nice if we could take a pill or get an injection to either cure or protect us from Alzheimer's disease. 

The prospect of having our brains essentially drain away is a grim one. 

Dr. Dale Bredeson, an MD, offers some hope. 

He's set up a treatment protocol, and he explains it in his book The End of Alzheimer’s: The First Program to Prevent and Reverse Cognitive Decline.  The doctor joins us to talk about the details of the program and the results seen in early trials.
