For years, billions of dollars in research funding and drug development have focused on amyloid plaques as the primary cause of Alzheimer's disease. Drug companies designed treatments to target these plaques, yet clinical trials failed to produce meaningful results — and a recent discovery may explain why. A landmark Alzheimer's study that shaped nearly two decades of research has been retracted due to manipulated images, calling into question the foundation of one of the most dominant theories in Alzheimer's research. The study introduced a specific form of amyloid beta protein as a major driver of memory loss. However, the images that "proved" this protein's existence were altered — and now, the entire claim is unraveling. If the amyloid beta never existed — or was never the Alzheimer's trigger researchers thought it was — then millions of research dollars have been misspent and patients have been led down the wrong path, wasting valuable time and money ...

In the video below (1), board-certified dermatologist Dr. Andrea Suarez, known online as Dr. Dray, shares some fascinating insights about niacinamide, a water-soluble form of vitamin B3 (niacin), and its benefits for skin health. Niacinamide, also known as nicotinamide, is a precursor for NAD+, which is not only involved in the conversion of food to energy but is also important in the process of repairing damaged DNA. This is crucial because your skin faces constant environmental stressors, including ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can damage DNA in skin cells and suppress your immune system. Niacinamide shows promise for skin cancer prevention due to its ability to enhance DNA repair and reduce UV-induced immunosuppression in skin cells. These mechanisms are useful in preventing the development of non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), which include basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The Promise of Niacinamide for Skin Cancer Prevention Clinical trials ...
