Cancer drug could prevent Alzheimer's and dementia as scientists announce major breakthrough

Hope: The new breakthrough could help prevent Alzheimer's disease from developing

Scientists tonight hailed a major breakthrough in the war on dementia after discovering a cancer drug can prevent the disease.

The stunning development could pave the way for millions of Brits to be given "neurostatins" to slash their risk of Alzheimer's as they get older.

University of Cambridge researchers hope their findings will enable GPs to offer the drug like statins are prescribed to prevent heart problems.

Around 17 million adults - two in every five - are already eligible for cholesterol-busting statins.

And experts said similar numbers could be offered pills to protect against dementia, after finding a cancer treatment can halt the development of the disease.

Incredibly, they claim all Brits over the age of 30 could benefit.

The symptoms of Alzheimer's are caused by clumps of deformed proteins called amyloid in the brain. 

Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are going to war as she tries to protect her 'firewall'

Hillary Clinton's campaign has brought out the firepower quickly after her crushing loss to Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) on Tuesday night in the New Hampshire Democratic primary.

"When you match up the record of Hillary Clinton with the record of Bernie Sanders, it simply is no comparison," Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) said Wednesday in a campaign conference call.

"Hillary Clinton has been at the dance from the very beginning of her career. [Sanders] is a new arrival at the dance. And for many of us, it simply lends no credibility for some of the things that are now being said at the twilight of his political career."

I volunteered to fight in Syria … and ended up in a Kurdish prison

I had an opportunity to chat with a friend of mine, Red, who went to fight for the Kurdish Peshmerga, but ended up incarcerated after an unsuccessful attempt to cross the border into Syria.

SOFREP: So can you walk me through how it went down? Your arrest, I mean.

Red: Well, we were passed off near the border on the Syrian side to two guys in Pesh uniforms.

From there, we drove to the border, which we were told we would be able to get across just fine, so I assumed we’d be going to the YBS (Sinjar Resistance Units) base near Shengal.

Instead, they ended up taking us right to the legitimate border crossing. At that point, we were stopped like every other vehicle, but we had Westerners in the vehicle so they asked who we were, at which point the Pesh guys gave us right up and said they had no idea who we were.
