). In terms of human health, farnesol should have at least two different modes of action depending on whether those cells have farnesol salvage. Because animals have farnesol salvage, we can now see the importance of dietary prenols as well as the potential importance of farnesol in treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and multiple sclerosis.
