Todd Longwell Horse-drawn carriages were back on the streets of Troy, N.Y., in August, alongside equipment trucks, honey wagons and camera cranes. HBO’s “The Gilded Age” had returned to shoot scenes for the second season of the series, which explores the lives of monied families and the people who serve them in 1880s New York. The previous year, the production had covered the streets of Troy’s Monument Square with truckloads of dirt to turn it into a period-correct downtown Manhattan shopping district, and also utilized other well-preserved 19th century structures in the town (population: 51,400), 152 miles north of Manhattan, including the Rensselaer County Court House, the Savings Bank Music Hall and the Troy Public Library, along with its Washington Park neighborhood and the Oakwood Cemetery.
Intermittent fasting could lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease - new study
02.10.2022 - 14:59 / msn.com
Dementia is the term used for a wide range of conditions that affect the brain. These conditions prevent the brain cells, or neurons, from functioning properly, affecting memory, thoughts and speech. The most common types of dementia are Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia and Lewy body dementia.
While there is no cure for dementia it is thought there are a number of ways to reduce your risk of the condition - including keeping your brain active as you age. Now a study, published in the Cell Reports journal, has discovered that how often you eat could also make a difference. As part of the research, a team from the University of Southern California, studied healthy mice and two sets of mice who were at risk of dementia - known as E4FAD and 3xTg.
The mice were fed a fasting-mimicking diet for four to five days at a time, twice a month, and between these cycles, they ate a regular diet.

Tau proteins, which have the same effect on the brain, also decreased among fasting mice.
Mice on the fasting diet also had lower levels of brain inflammation. The study says: "The effects of fasting-mimicking diet (FMD) cycles in reducing many ageing and disease risk factors indicate it could affect Alzheimer's disease (AD). "Here, we show that FMD cycles reduce cognitive decline and AD pathology in E4FAD and 3xTg AD mouse models, with effects superior to those caused by protein restriction cycles.
