A gut-derived molecule called ImP is being linked to Alzheimer’s risk, abnormal brain-protein buildup and faster cognitive decline. It’s not proof that ImP causes Alzheimer’s, but the gut-to-brain connection is getting harder to dismiss
Your gut may be making a molecule that raises Alzheimer’s risk
Scientists have linked a gut bacterial compound called ImP to greater Alzheimer’s risk, harmful brain protein buildup, and faster cognitive decline. The finding raises the possibility that reducing Im...
