Waster (talk · contribs) inserted the news item that taking B vitamins was not helpful. This has not been published yet - it was an abstract at the European Society of Cardiology, presented on 5/9/2005 by Bonaa KH et al [1] [2]. I think we should scan the literature in a few months to see which large journal will be publishing this finding. JFW | T@lk 16:58, 6 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I do believe there is a possible link between homocysteine levels and dementia. Does anyone want to verify and add this? Kenkoo1987 01:45, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
