Attention Seniors: NEVER Take This Alzheimer’s Drug!

If you or your loved one has Alzheimer’s, you’d probably do just about anything to reverse the disease.

That’s why it’s easy to submit when your mainstream doc suggests taking meds.

The only problem?

There’s not a single Alzheimer’s drug on the market that actually WORKS.

And if that’s bad enough… research now shows that one of these popular drugs can put you on the fast track to another serious disease.

Here’s what you need to know.

I’m talking about Aricept.

It belongs to a class of drugs called a cholinesterase inhibitor, that’s FDA approved to treat the memory loss and thinking problems that come with Alzheimer’s.

It’s linked to muscle pain… diarrhea… and even neurological problems.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

In a recent study, researchers tracked the health outcomes of over 220,000 seniors, who had a new prescription for one of three cholinesterase inhibitors – Aricept, Exelon, and Razadyne.

At the end, they found that all three of these drugs increase your risk of developing rhabdomyolysis – a rare disorder that breaks down your muscle tissue and puts these particles into your bloodstream where they overwhelm your kidneys.

And this process causes SEVERE PAIN.

But that’s not the worst news…

Aricept patients had twice as high of a risk of being hospitalized for rhabdomyolysis than the other cholinesterase inhibitors.

And get this… studies show that taking Aricept only adds an extra month to your survival rate… And those are studies done by Big Pharma with lots of funny math to get that minor result.

Would you trade a month of your life for years of pain? I know I wouldn’t.

You can always turn to nature to support someone who is going through Alzheimer’s.

Eating a low-carb diet can help as well as taking essential fatty acids, good B vitamins, and other brain-healthy nutrients.
