Came across an article about the efficacy of medication delivered via nasal sprays in the British newspaper “The Indepedent”. While following my nose on the subject, I learned about other studies specifically relating insulin to Alzheimer’s Disease and the investigation of using nasal sprays as a delivery system.
Very promising stuff.
Check out these stories:
- A 2006 report from the Mayo Clinic on the relationship between insulin and Alzheimer’s
- A May 26, 2008 New York Times article on how nasal delivery of insulin works
- A September, 2006 article at Medical News Today about some positive results at the Veterans Affairs (VA) Puget Sound Health Care System
- and, a notice at Clinical Trials.gov for a Study of Nasal Insulin to Fight Forgetfulness
