> Catching these clumps early while still in minute quantities can enable effective intervention
I wonder what interventions they mean here. Drugs, lifestyle changes?

>"I spent 20 years in the Navy, most of it in the hot spots, like the engine rooms of ships—110 degrees is nothing on a ship," he says. That environment may have caused an increase in heat shock proteins, which were able to limit the spread of tau and prevent the onset of Alzheimer's. The scientists studying Whitney aren't sure if that's all, or even part, of the explanation. But they are hoping that the paper on Whitney will encourage other researchers to look for answers.
So instead of going to work for the navy, one could just go to the sauna daily.
Edit: turns out that it might be true: https://academic.oup.com/ageing/article/46/2/245/2654230?log...
So maybe Sauna is good, but where Sauna is popular is usually a place that is very cold and humid, which is not good.
The link between BMAA (from toxic algae blooms) and neurodegenerative diseases in predisposed people is basically causal and proven at this point, but it's allegedly suppressed by Big Fishing and Aquaculture.
You may be right. There are many other components contributing to the problem in Finland, too.
I just tried anf found a total of 130 trials using Heat shock proteins 70 or 90 (HSP70 and HSP90) and with very few exceptions they are all cancer trials.
Monoculture.
Sauna sounds good at this point.
Basically, can I replace sauna with 30 minutes of vigorous cardio?
So sauna/Turkish bath/hot-springs users have reduced incidence of Alzheimer's?
These links were not using our tech, but are based on the same principles of phase-targeted slow-wave enhancement. We have an enhanced protocol aiming to overcome some of the issues these researchers experienced with previous implementations.

As far as I'm aware, we currently have no evidence to suggest whether the appropriate model for this protein accumulation is more "it's like a cancer growing on your organ" or "it's like a scab growing over an open wound".
Are scabs markers of injury? Of course.
Could we reduce injuries by preventing the development of scabs? No, that's a new horrifying medical condition called hemophilia. In the general case, it's rapidly fatal.
This is something that really bothers me about the current craze for suppressing inflammation. In that case, we already know that inflammation is like scabs, a defensive reaction against some other problem. For Alzheimer's, we don't know anything.
