Fenchol, a Natural Compound Found in Basil, May Protect Against Alzheimer’s Disease Pathology
Researchers at the University of South Florida suggest that fenchol, a natural compound found in some plants including basil, may help protect against Alzheimer’s disease pathology in the brain. The discovery of a sensing mechanism associated with the gut, which was published in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, shows how fenchol reduces neurotoxicity in Alzheimer’s patients.
