Alzheimer's/Brain Health

UPDATE - AUGUST, 2025!  The most exciting information I've learned of of late involves something the body makes called PLASMALOGENS.  When in abundant supply we are vibrantly healthy; when in low supply, many conditions of ill health can ensue, but when it comes to Alzheimer's disease - even in the face of the scary gene mutation in the APOE gene - it is "the explanation and answer!"  Knowing about and employing plasmalogen precursing supplements does not mean all of the other "players" given attention to in my Outsmarting Alzheimer's series below are not still valid, but this is the true missing link.  How all of the other nutrients and biochemical "players" interact with and perhaps are interdependent on having optimal plasmalogen levels I couldn't begin to say, and I would never stop my supplement routine and replace with plasmalogen precursors, but the GOOD NEWS IS

"We really have MUCH more control than we think we do!" 

I have a page on this website dedicated to plasmalogens and will be building it as I do many pages over time - so much more to learn and teach here - but I did do an initial webinar introducing you to PLASMALOGENS at the beginning of this month.

Dayan Goodenowe, PhD, is the brilliant scientist behind today's understanding of plasmalogens and their relationship to life, health, and death.  From autism, to Parkinson's, to ALS, to Alzheimer's, Lewy Body, cancer, and beyond, optimizing plasmalogens in your body is the get out of jail free card.

Alzheimer's disease is, today, the most commonly recognized form of dementia.  My own mother began manifesting symptoms of AD when she was only 49 years old.  She died an "old woman" at 58.  Thankfully, during the years since her demise I have become very confident that Alzheimer's disease is preventable, stoppable, and, perhaps, yes, even reversible to some extent.  This is not information you are going to hear on the news or from your doctor.  Remember, the information presented in the mainstream acknowledges only treatments and cures that spring from the AMA toolkit.  (I am broadening this page to include brain health in general, but I also have an indepth  Parkinson's page;  See HERE.)

This video takes us into hormones; the vital importance of cholesterol, and from there pregnenolone, DHEA, and progesterone.  

After that, digging into the importance of maintaining adequate levels of serotonin.   Stay tuned for Part 3 next week!

This video takes us to nutritional lithium, procaine (GH3), glutathione, melatonin, methylene blue, the B vitamins, as well as things to avoid, such as routine vaccinations laced with aluminum & mercury; aspartame, dietary sugars, proccessed foods, and foods laden with pesticides.

Preventing, treating, stopping, maybe even reversing?
 
The science exists.
 
The cumulative science - and lots of it - has existed for a long time and continues to be collected.
 
But I'll bet nothing I talk about with regard to Alzheimer's disease today is anything you have ever heard of during a loved one's physician visit.
 
I'll just bet there's been practically no conversation about diet, dietary dangers, or medical dangers such as aluminum and mercury from his or her yearly flu shot. I'll be there's been zero conversation about the well-researched role of nutrients and hormones and how utilizing them wisely just might make a nice difference, and, yes, based on "the science."
 
My presentation on this topic is dear to my heart, as my own mother began manifesting symptoms of Alzheimer's disease at the ripe old age of 49 and died an old woman at 58.
 
Science has come a long way since that time, and my understanding has come a long way since that time, but - astoundingly - effective treatment and better outcomes have NOT come a long way since that time.
 
What's wrong with this picture?
 
I start my presentation with a look into the:
 
MEDICAL-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX
and how the industry has admitted a profitability problem with relation to cures - 
"Is curing disease economically feasible?"
 
My presentation on this topic is LONG, so I broke it up into four, 1-hour sessions.
 
I speak from what I know.
I have actively been preventing Alzheimer's disease in myself for some 20+ years.
I'll tell you how to do it, too.
In the video to the left, you will find my presentation on epigenetics using the examples of cancer and Alzheimer's disease. 

"Epigenetics?" 

"If you know what your genes aren't doing for you, go in and do it another way."

  • Klotho proteins, discovered in the 1990s, play a significant role in longevity and cognitive function, with elevated klotho levels linked to prolonged lifespan and enhanced brain health.

  • Dr. Dena Dubal’s research indicates that klotho can strengthen cognitive functions and potentially protect against neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

  • Lifestyle factors, like chronic stress and exercise, significantly influence klotho levels, with stress reducing and exercise increasing this protein, thereby impacting overall brain health and longevity.

Stimulating the Vagus Nerve Could Slow Cognitive Decline–Here’s How

"Neff said any technique that stimulates the vagus nerve can help improve cognitive health by improving vagus nerve activity and addressing dorsal vagal shutdown. More accessible and natural options than device-based VNS include singing, humming, and chanting, which can be practiced at home.

Chanting is a practice found in cultures worldwide, and for good reason. One study shows that chanting “om” can calm the limbic system, the part of the brain linked to emotions and stress.

'Since the vagus nerve is connected to the vocal cords and muscles in the back of the throat, using your voice in mindful ways can directly activate this nerve,' Neff said."

Physical Exercise & Brain Health

Joseph Mercola, MD - Jan 30, 2025

"A Penn State College of Medicine study demonstrated that daily physical activity, regardless of intensity, improves cognitive processing speed by approximately 60 milliseconds, effectively reducing cognitive age by about four years."
