Jacob Rickards current event 11/9/10

The article "Study finds B-vitamin deficiency may cause vascular cognitive impairment" is a very interesting article. In the article it explains that researchers at the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging (HNRCA) examined the effects of vitamin B deficiency. They have concluded from this study that a deficiency of B-vitamins may cause vascular cognitive impairment. Maybe B- vitamins aren't so good after all.
In my opinion this article was very long and boring. It was full of information but the experiment itself was proably not the most exciting experiment performed. The B- vitamin is a very common vitamin in todays society. With todays technology and tax money, we can proably find an alternative vitamin that has the same results as the B- vitamin or we can find away to prevent it from causing vascular cognitive impairement. We aren't even sure if this vitamin does this, but we can never be too careful.
