SHILAJIT could hold promise in the management of Alzheimer's disease and might even prevent it if taken well in advance. If someone is genetically susceptible to Alzheimer's disease it is advisable to start taking shilajit immediately as a supplement. If you having any first degree relative (biological father, mother, siblings, grand parents) you have 30% risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. If you have 2 first degree relatives with AD then the risk could be as high as 60%. Though AD is clinically diagnosed only in someone's 60's and 70's years of age the gradual brain degeneration starts almost 20 years in advance. This could manifest like forgetfulness, lack of attention, difficulty in concentrating etc.

Administration of Shilajit led to reduced acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) staining thereby increasing it's levels. Acetyl Cholinesterase is an important neurotransmitter and it's levels are an important indicator of cognition and memory. Lower levels indicate brain degeneration, dementia and AD. All the conventional prescription medicines to treat/manage Alzheimer's disease.
