Homocysteine is an amino acid that swarms around inside our body, participates in metabolism, crawls out from somewhere, crawls somewhere and nothing would not particularly stand out among other amino acids, but it turned out that with a high level of this homocysteine, people are more likely to have strokes with heart attacks. We are with you this topic has already been discussed.
Now there has been a proposal to expose the secret link between homocysteine and dementia.
I explain. It looks like there is a connection. Homocysteine itself is justified by the fact that it did not provoke dementia in any way, but simply passed by. And I believe him.
In the past, homocysteine did have problems, and it regularly got into bad stories.
In a peaceful life, it is monitored by B vitamins. But when difficult times come, and fewer vitamins enter the bloodstream, homocysteine becomes unrestrained, loosens and begins to rise indecently.
I confirm that this shameful fact has long been known to the general public and even some measures were taken to prevent further disgrace.
But then it turned out that all the dogs were too often let down on unrestrained homocysteine and blamed on someone else's fault. It is very likely that he did not even half of what he was accused of.
Yes, homocysteine grows like mold in dysfunctional organisms, but you can't call it an infection for that. He lives his own life, and may not even bother anyone at all.
When homocysteine was tried to be placed under the strict supervision of fortified groups of vitamins, the level of ugliness in the body did not change much. So there is a suspicion that someday homocysteine will be fully justified, and all these stories about his atrocities will turn out to be just gossip.
There was an opinion that when people with dementia eat poorly, forget to drink water and all that, then their homocysteine rises in their blood, vitamins fall, and a lot of strange things happen. But this is more due to poor nutrition than homocysteine.
In short, homocysteine can increase in dementia, but it is far from the fact that it is he who provokes dementia.
Imagine that homocysteine with dementia is two ships sailing parallel courses in the same direction. If you sink the homocysteine ship, the dementia ship will calmly sail further in the same direction. So leave homocysteine alone for now.
