How Can Alzheimer S Disease And Dementia Be Treated?

My husband was diagnosed last year with Alzheimer Dementia. I am looking for herbal supplements that might help with his memory issues. Do you know anything about ProTandim - it has Milk Thistle, Bacopa, Ashwagandha, Green Tea and Turmeric in it. I know it has not been approved by the FDA but most herbal remedies are not. He is unable to take Namenda and Aricept. Too many side effects.
