How Sleep Apnea Can Cause a Stroke
Obstructive sleep apnea decreases blood flow to the brain and causes changes in the brain that increase sufferers' risk of suffering from a stroke or dying in their sleep, according to a study published by The American Physiological Society. The decreased blood flow to the brain causes elevated blood pressure within the brain that eventually harms the brain's ability to modulate these changes and prevent damage to itself.

We also know that patients with atherosclerotic risk factors and history of stroke have the highest risk for AD.

Sleep Loss And Alzheimer's Linked
Chronic sleep deprivation demonstrated in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease makes brain plaques appear earlier and more often, according to a Washington University School of Medicine report published in Science Express.

30% of Multivitamins Don't Provide What They Say
More than 30 percent of a medicine chest of multivitamins failed to contain what they said they did, or were contaminated with lead, according to a report by the private company ConsumerLab.com
Among the 46 multivitamins analyzed, those that failed the test had far more or less of an ingredient than stated on the label. And several, including three supplements for children, contained more than the upper limit recognized as healthy by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). Unhealthily excessive dosages were found for ingredients such as vitamin A, folic acid, niacin and zinc, according to the report by ConsumerLab.com, a White Plains, N.Y., firm that provides consumer information and independent evaluations of health and nutrition products.
