Wildcats defensive end Taylor Wyndham hit hard in the chest on third-and-6 play from the Kentucky 9. As Tebow fell to the ground, the back of his head hit Gators tackle Marcus Gilbert's knee. For now, he appears to be OK, but concussions are a worry in all levels of football, as this new study clearly notes. http://www.huliq.com/3257/87132/new-study-focuses-dementia-former-nfl-players#comments Health Alzheimer's disease dementia NFL Tim Tebow Wed, 30 Sep 2009 09:52:57 -0500 Michael Santo 87132 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/7306/86730/mishandling-money-may-foreshadow-alzheimers-onset Money management difficulties may be a clue that predicts the onset of Alzheimer's disease. http://www.huliq.com/7306/86730/mishandling-money-may-foreshadow-alzheimers-onset#comments Health Alzheimer's disease family cost long term care Money Management Tue, 22 Sep 2009 08:48:36 -0500 Mindy Hartman 86730 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/86296/marker-alzheimers-disease-discovered Gothenburg researchers have discovered a previously unknown substance in spinal fluid that can be used to diagnose Alzheimer's disease.
