Who says there’s nothing you can do to prevent and treat Alzheimer’s disease? Dr. Bredesen has proven otherwise with his groundbreaking research and protocol. Want to know your risk without getting a PET scan? Find out here, along with the basics of Dr. Bredesen’s life-changing protocol. STORY AT-A-GLANCE In 2014, Dr. Dale Bredesen published a paper demonstrating healthy lifestyle choices could reverse Alzheimer’s in 9 out of 10 patients. His team is now launching a new randomized, controlled trial at six sites. Biological aging, brain aging, and epigenetics will be included in this trial, using newer blood tests that weren’t available even a few years ago.
The glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) test can be a valuable tool. This test basically looks at brain changes associated with astrocytosis. Astrocytes respond when there’s a problem in the brain, so it can give you a heads-up that something is afoot up to 10 years before symptoms set in.
Supporting energy production and reducing inflammation in the brain are the two most important factors to prevent and treat Alzheimer’s.
The entire family of herpes viruses is associated with changes in the brain and neurons. Left untreated, chronic infections put your innate immune system into overdrive. Alzheimer’s is an innate immune system mismatch with the adaptive system. You’re not clearing the pathogen, so you’ve got a continued onslaught of cytokines causing damage in your brain.
Valuable adjuncts that can help improve mitochondrial energy production include methylene blue, niacinamide, NAC, and glycine. In this video, I interview repeat guest Dr. Dale Bredesen, a neurologist specializing in the treatment of Alzheimer’s. In 2014, he published a paper1 demonstrating the power of lifestyle choices for the prevention and treatment of this tragic condition. By leveraging 36 healthy lifestyle parameters, he was able to reverse Alzheimer’s in 9 out of 10 patients….
