Title: Britan - Doctors: Infra-Red Helmet Could Reverse Alzheimer's Disease
Post by: Yisrael on January 28, 2008, 02:00:16 AM

Britan - An experimental helmet which scientists say could reverse the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease within weeks of being used is to be tried out on patients.

The strange-looking headgear - which has to be worn for ten minutes every day - bathes the brain with infra-red light and stimulates the growth of brain cells.

Its creators believe it could reverse the symptoms of dementia - such as memory loss and anxiety - after only four weeks.

Alzheimer's disease charities last night described the treatment as "potentially life- changing" - but stressed that the research was still at the very early stages. [dailymail]
