"40Hz Light and Sound Therapy: A Breakthrough in Alzheimer's Treatment"
A study at MIT reveals that sensory stimulation at the gamma brain rhythm frequency of 40 Hz can reduce Alzheimer's disease progression in mice by promoting the clearance of amyloid proteins via the brain's glymphatic system. Researchers found that sensory gamma stimulation prompts a specific type of neuron to release peptides, which in turn drive processes that increase amyloid clearance. The study suggests that sensory stimulation of brain rhythms may offer potential for treating neurological disorders.
