This supplement has given results more noticeable than all others.
I started taking 2 capsules per day after reading the UCLA paper on decreased plaque uptake in the brain and improved memory in non-demented people who had parents with Alzheimer's dementia. My mother died of Lewy Body Dementia, which is the second most common cause of dementia. The most notable effect that I found after 2 taking the supplement (1 capsule twice daily) for two weeks, was improved gum disease. After 2 months on the supplement, I went from 18 bleeds to 5 bleeds during my dental cleaning, and all of my pockets improved. After 5 months, I had 2 gum bleeds, and completely healed pockets. As an immunologist, I know that Alzheimer's is an inflammatory disease and that there are at least anecdotal results that gum disease is associated with dementia. From the UCLA paper, the half-life of the supplement is about 6-8 hours, which means that you could take it 3 times a day. I have not done this, but I have read that it has been recommended for people with rheumatoid arthritis. Also, the studies have not been done yet, but my father, who also has dementia, improved 2-3 points on all of his memory tests after taking this supplement twice daily for 3 months. So, as a scientist, I highly recommend this supplement. It has both anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial effects.
