#3 Tau is a response from the Brain's own immune system.

Tau is normally cleared by good sleep flushing it out into the Cerebrospinal fluid.

Plaques in the blood stream, or what causes them maybe to blame for both the tau AND the hardening which stops the CSP fluid moving during sleep.

From reading I'd recommend you look at, Intermittent fasting, Metformin, Keto Diet, statins or niacin, vitamin K2, Butyrate, CoQ10.

#8 Going out on a whim here....

The Tau may be in response to HPV in the brain so getting acyclovir into the CSF may help.

Acyclovir Levels in Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid after Oral Administration of Valacyclovir

This says take Valacyclovir to do this. I also wonder if the Gardasil type immunisations will have an "unexpected" dividend in 50 years.

#10 The Tau may be in response to HPV in the brain so getting acyclovir into the CSF may help.

Might HPV vaccinations help, either before or after infection?

#11 Gardasil is a HPV vaccine.

#12 Hmm. Kind of embarrassing and confirming at the same time. :-)
