    Vitamins 'cut Alzheimer's effect'

    Alzheimer's causes damage to the brain
    It may be possible to reduce the effects of Alzheimer's disease by taking the right combination of vitamins, US research suggests.

    Scientists have found vitamins E and C may protect the ageing brain - but only if taken together.

    They both mop up destructive molecules, called free radicals, released by the body's metabolic processes.

    Researchers at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland announced their findings in the journal Archives of Neurology.
