Interaction Information:
Comment | Although many epidemiological studies suggest that there is a connection between antioxidants and a reduced risk of AD, only a few trials with single antioxidants including Vitamin E, estrogen, and alpha-lipoic acid have displayed some benefits for AD patients, suggesting that these drugs are only effective in very early stages of the disease. |
