There is also a tendency in medicine to look at the whole body and mind. Until now, in medicine, illness was caused by one cause, and the idea was to eliminate that one cause. However, the idea itself is changing depending on the disease.

Beat Alzheimer's with exercise
Charlotte Schubert
They found that exercise doubled the levels of a protein that helps to flush molecules thought to underlie Alzheimer's disease out of the mice's brains and into their blood. The protein, called megalin, ejects a potentially destructive protein called amyloid-beta. In Alzheimer's patients, amyloid-beta accumulates in clumps throughout the brain.

Neuroscience: Wake up to dementia
Sleep in mice affects the formation of amyloid- plaques - the protein clumps found in the brain in Alzheimer's disease.
David Holtzman from Washington University in St Louis, Missouri, and his colleagues measured amyloid- levels every hour in the brains of mice engineered to express a mutant form of the human APP gene, which codes for the amyloid- precursor. They found that amyloid- levels rose when the animals were awake and fell when they slept. Normal mice and humans showed similar patterns.
When the authors deprived the mice of sleep, amyloid- levels increased by 20-25%. When they blocked a neurotransmitter that induces wakefulness, they saw lower amyloid- levels and fewer plaques.
