Phosphate (P) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth. Roots employ adaptive mechanisms to forage for P in soil. Root hair elongation is particularly important since P is immobile. Here we report that auxin plays a critical role promoting root hair growth in Arabidopsis in response to low external P.
More Phosphate less root hairs
evidence suggests that brain ketone metabolism remains unimpaired in alzeheimer's patients.
seems easy enough to test. do ketogenic patients get better?

In contrast, plants grown in nutrient solution produced more and longer root hairs in low P conditions.
Low Phosphorus solution makes longer root hairs?
Despite the methodological limitations, the finding that 50 of the 64 reviewed studies revealed an association between diet and AD incidence offers promising implications for diet as a modifiable risk factor for AD.
but most studies show diet is promising for Alzheimer's

It is hypothesized that water movement reduced the local ethylene concentration on the root surface and consequently inhibited root hair development of sorghum seedlings grown in the mat system.
Osmotic shock or osmotic stress is physiologic dysfunction caused by a sudden change in the solute concentration around a cell, which causes a rapid change in the movement of water across its cell membrane.
The Meadows is in Nottingham, England close to the River Trent and West Bridgford and is home to the Nottingham War Memorial Gardens.
I'm intrigued and will visit soon.

Humans likely hunted the remaining populations of Wooly Mammoths to extinction.
Apparently modern humans are just a worse version of the native primitive humans.

The findings of this review highlight the therapeutic potential of combination of nutritionally adequate diet and physical activity in preventing or delaying the symptoms associated with AD pathology.
Diet and Exercise seem to reduce Alzheimer's Disease

The decline of the woolly mammoth could have increased temperatures by up to 0.2 °C (0.36 °F) at high latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere.
Humans have been harming the environment for thousands of years.

We have developed a mist system that resulted in abundant production of root hairs exuding sorgoleone and a mat system that significantly inhibited root hair development and consequently sorgoleone production.
