Healthy volunteersNot accepted

Inclusion criteria

Diagnosis of probable Alzheimer Disease (AD) with documented evidence of progression of disease
Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) score of 21-26, inclusive
Clinical Dementia Rating global score of 0.5 or 1
Rosen-Modified Hachinski Ischemia Score less than or equal to 4

Women of childbearing potential
Uncontrolled blood pressure and/or blood pressure above 160/100
Prescription medical food intended for dietary management of the metabolic processes associated with Alzheimer's disease.
Diagnosis or history of cerebrovascular stroke, severe carotid stenosis, cerebral hemorrhage, intracranial tumor, subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Patients with unstable, uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c > 7.7%) and those requiring insulin.
