White matter aging and its impact on brain function

 Since CT and MRI scans don't show any signs of damage to your white matter, ask your doctor how they OBJECTIVELY DETERMINE SUCH DAMAGE AND THE EXACT PROTOCOLS TO FIX SUCH DAMAGE. Your doctor knows nothing, I bet.

Do you prefer your doctor incompetence NOT KNOWING OR NOT DOING?

Summary

Aging has a detrimental impact on white matter, resulting in reduced volume, compromised structural integrity of myelinated axons, and an increase in white matter hyperintensities. These changes are closely linked to cognitive decline and neurological disabilities. The deterioration of myelin and its diminished ability to regenerate as we age further contribute to the progression of neurodegenerative disorders. Understanding these changes is crucial for devising effective disease prevention strategies. Here, we will discuss the structural alterations in white matter that occur with aging and examine the cellular and molecular mechanisms driving these aging-related transformations. We highlight how the progressive disruption of white matter may initiate a self-perpetuating cycle of inflammation and neural damage.
