Can cinnamon prevent Alzheimer's?

Can cinnamon prevent Alzheimer's?: The paper, as summarized in a research note, examines two compounds found in cinnamon: cinnamaldehyde and epicatechin. Based on experiments, these two compounds have been shown to prevent the development of the filamentous "tangles" found in the brain cells that characterize Alzheimer's. This means that the compounds prevent the breakdown of certain proteins, seen critical to the onset of the disease.
