Alzheimer’s, Dementia and Mother Nature
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by cognitive decline…
…behavioral and psychological symptoms, and impaired activities of daily living. Patients with Alzheimer’s disease are faced with the inevitable decline from mild to moderate and, eventually, to severe stages of the disease and death.
“I had early onset cognitive impairment after losing my income for helping a woman with a medical condition and not being able to sleep. This is how I healed my brain and memory!
-Dr. Stone
The American Medical Association observes that, once diagnosed with Dementia, the average life span is 5-10 years, but some barely make 2 years, and others live up to 20 more years. No matter how long, every year is progressively worse.
Mild Cognitive Impairment is characterized by walking downstairs and forgetting why you made the trek.
In the mild Alzheimer’s stages, you “can’t find the word” and “lose track of time.” Moderate Alzheimer’s stages begins when you ask the same questions over and over and forget that you are frying an egg! That seems to worry everyone.
Severe Alzheimer’s stages begins when you lose the ability to repeat 3 words back after I say them, which means you don’t don’t even retain the last few seconds or minutes of your life. Before you die, you forget your own people and language. Every visit, we meet for the first time, again, and you can’t recall the word “chair” as you point me to have a seat. –Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease 2016
And then you die. If you are lucky, it could take 20 years. If you are unlucky, this progression can take as little as a couple years.
LUCK depends on your perspective, of course. Some might say passing is a blessing if you can’t recall the last few seconds of your life!
That is your prognosis, your future, if you rely solely on Conventional Medicine. Lucky or not.
I thought that sounded horrifying, so I scoured the globe for anything that might offer hope for improvement or remission of a progressive disease. I found scientific evidence that Dementia can be reversed and prevented!!
You can prevent Alzheimers!
Gotu Kola
Aluminum is fed to lab animals to cause Alzheimer’s disease so researchers can test medicines without risking harm to humans. This study observed the effect of feeding half the animals a plant called Gotu Kola with the aluminum. Gotu Kola significantly reduced the characteristic brain damage compared to the animals not receiving Gotu Kola, even with acute poisoning. –(1)
True Heavy Metal Detox is our medicine for gently eliminating heavy metals such as Aluminum and Mercury. At my weight, seven doses of Mylanta per day would cause Alzheimer’s in 30 days, based on the mg/bodyweight dosing they use to cause Alzheimer’s disease in Lab animals. –(2)
The “safe” intake of aluminum is listed as 10 mg per day for a 170 pound adult.
Aluminum compounds may be added during processing of foods, such as:
- flour
- baking powder
- coloring agents
- anticaking agents
“An average adult in the United States eats about 7–9 mg of aluminum per day in their food.” –CDC
The amount used to cause Alzheimers in 30 days would be 3,800 mg per day for a 170 pound animal. Antacids may have up to 900 mg per dose. Aspirin is buffered with 10-20 mg of aluminum per pill. Aluminum pans serve fish patties with 75 mg of aluminum per patty. Acidic liquids cooked in aluminum pans can absorb as much as 300 mg per cup (some were very low, which I imagine is the difference between cheap and high quality, aka expensive). –(3)
Our government claims “we aren’t sure if aluminum causes Alzheimer’s” while our scientists use aluminum to induce Alzheimers in lab animals. I take a dose of True Heavy Metal Detox every day because it binds and eliminates environmental toxins that hurt, even the heaviest and hardest. I find formaldehyde to be a greater danger (Read about Formaldehyde HERE), and more of the reason I detox daily, because it cleans and clears everything!
I’m not big into politics. Does our government do a lot of lying?!?
Step 1: True Heavy Metal Detox – Clean the Brain
Step 2: Heal the Brain
“Curcumin is one of the most promising and exciting compounds for development of Alzheimer’s Disease therapeutics.“
In India the incidence of Alzheimer’s is one tenth the incidence in the USA, thought to be because of their high consumption of Turmeric. Turmeric also has a beneficial effect on diabetes, which drastically increases your risk of developing dementia.
Alzheimer’s is characterized by inflammatory and oxidative damage to brain cells, causing “tangles” and protein clumping called Beta Amyloid Plaques. Lewy Body dementia is named for another version of protein clumping. Diabetes greatly accelerates the clumping and tangles, while Curcumin reduces clumping and tangles and lowers elevated blood sugar. –Neural Regeneration Research 2018
In China, doctors use curcumin to diagnose the severity of AD. Curcumin can be labeled with radioactive nuclides so it glows vividly on brain scan. It has a significant attraction to plaques and tangles, almost like it knows what needs healing, making it the perfect “dye” to scan for early Alzheimer’s stages and to monitor progression and severity.
Human Studies: Curcumin improved cognitive function and reduced fatigue and psychological stress in a healthy older population, but didn’t fare much better than a placebo with diagnosed Alzheimer’s.
We’re not looking for a miracle pill or potion, though, We’re looking for what Alzheimer’s needs to heal. Always start with a healthy diet. This diet is proven to reduce the incidence of Alzheimer’s.
Dr. Axe does a swell job of describing the dietary and lifestyle factors that reduce the incidence of Alzheimer’s Disease. I find it boring to have someone tell me that we have to move our bodies, challenge our minds, and eat whole foods. I also know how challenging it was to find the truth about what we need to eat, so I’m happy that Dr. Axe makes it easy to find!
If you already Have Alzheimer’s or Cognitive Impairment, we need a good bit more Help and HOPE than Prevention can provide! I found 4 resources that have improved Alzheimer’s in human models.
MCTs in Coconut Oil
Coconut Oil contains Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs). If you aren’t familiar, PaleoLeap.com can get you up to speed!
Researchers at Louisiana State University (LSU) gave MCTs to early stage Alzheimer’s patients and memory performance increased over 24 weeks. There were only 2 people in the MCT group, and 2 in the placebo group, but MCT’s improved a progressive disease, twice! With NO SIDE EFFECTS! –(4)
If anyone I loved and cared for had early signs of AD, I’d have them on True Heavy Metal Detox, Gotu Kola, Curcumin and MCTs in a heartbeat, but I wouldn’t stop there.
Fish Oils
I’d drastically increase anyone-with-dementia’s dose of Fish Oils.
Have you gotten the scoop on Omega 3 and 6 fats?
Dr. Chris Kresser teaches the basics in more detail, but the simple message is clear! Get your ratio as close to 1:1 as POSSIBLE, and you will prevent / improve nearly every disease! –(5)
If your Omega 3 to 6 ratio is low, like 1/20…the incidence of tangles and clumping increases. If you get closer to 1/1, your brain size (volume) increases, and your memory clearly works better! –(6), (7).
Human Studies: Eighteen people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) were given fish oil daily for 12 months, and compared to 18 patients receiving a placebo. “The fish oil group showed significant improvement in short-term and working memory, immediate verbal memory and delayed recall capability.” –(8).
Acupressure or Acupuncture.
Ten randomized controlled trials with a total of 585 participants evaluated the effectiveness of Acupuncture on Alzheimer’s disease. Results of 6 trials showed that acupuncture was better than drugs at improving scores on the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) scale. Evidence from the results of 3 trials showed that acupuncture plus Aricept was more effective than Aricept alone at improving the MMSE scale score. –(9).
I’ll share which points they used at the end. They used acupuncture, but I’ve done quite well healing folks with acupressure, and I’ll show you how easy it is…at the end.
True Neuro-Regeneration
Alzheimers progresses from not being able to recall the last few minutes, to the last few seconds, and then you can’t recall what a bird or chair is called. In 2014, Alzheimer’s patients received Bacopa, Wild Yam and Sea Buckthorne. Instead of progressing toward death, their word recall improved by 30%. Their functional ability improved by 21%. –(10).
“Alzheimer’s disease regressed.” Lol. I wouldn’t say it that way. I’d say health, healing, and function improved or progressed by 30%. Just words though.
I’d definitely include these plants!
Plant Medicines that reverse Alzheimer’s Disease.
There is actually some pretty exciting research out there, but it may be 5o years before it gets to human testing. These are studies on Animal Models of Alzheimer’s.
Are you willing to wait 50 years to see if something harmless is good enough for science to approve it as treatment for Alzheimer’s Disease or Lewy Body Dementia?
I didn’t have 50 years to wait, so I went forward with the best medicine that science has to offer. There are no harmful side effects, so my worst case is wasting some money on medicine while I normally deteriorate per the medical model. (Two years later, I am happy and healthy!!)
Aluminum is fed to rats or mice to reproduce the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s so that researchers can evaluate the effects of different medicines. So far, no pharmaceutical has reversed clumping and tangles or improved memory. So far, no plant medicine has had a side effect bad enough to not give them a try, and these plants reversed AD!
In animal models, a 30-d course of Ashwaghanda reversed behavioral deficits, plaque pathology, accumulation of β-amyloid peptides (decreased tangles and clumps!) AND increased acetylcholine by 40%. Acetylcholine is the neurotransmitter associated with learning and memory. –(11).
“In this study, we found that oral administration of Reishi Mushroom promoted rapid nerve cell reproduction and alleviated cognitive deficits in animal models of Alzheimer’s Disease. Our findings suggest that Reishi could serve as a regenerative therapeutic agent for the treatment of cognitive decline associated with neurodegenerative diseases.” –(12).
There were no side effects…no danger in trying it.
“Ginseng significantly decreased memory impairment in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease in 30 days. Ginseng repairs the damage of the hippocampus, decreases clumping and tangles, and improves neurotransmitter levels.” –(13).
“Environmental enrichment (EE) has been shown to enhance cognitive function in mouse models of Alzheimer‘s disease. The addition of Magnesium improved cognition and spatial memory more effectively than either treatment alone.” –(14).
“According to tests, Methyl-cobalamin (Vit B12) improved intellectual functions, such as memory, emotional functions, and communication with other people. Improvements in cognitive functions were relatively constant when the vitamin B12 levels in the cerebrospinal fluid were high. There were no side effects attributable to methyl-cobalamin.” –(15).
The plants and nutrients that protect and heal the brain, even with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis, are the ingredients of True Neuro-Regeneration.
If anyone I loved and cared for had early signs of AD, I’d have them on True Heavy Metal Detox, True Neuro-Regeneration, high dose fish oils and Coconut Oil in a heartbeat!
True Neuro-Regeneration gives you this much hope… 100 people got better instead of worse.
Add the 2 people that got better instead of worse using MCTs, and the 18 that got better instead of worse using Fish Oils, and the hundreds of animal models that got better instead of worse using Ashwaghanda, Reishi, Ginseng, Magnesium, and B12.
Plus Gotu Kola and Curcumin, which seem to love and protect the brain.
I put Mother Nature’s Healing together for you in our Cognitive Impairment Kit. I hope you appreciate the relief and restoration of life for your loved ones.

They tested over 100 patients with Alzheimer’s Disease using a variety of memory and focus tasks, and lab tests for inflammation and oxidation, which are characteristic lab findings in Alzheimer’s disease. They concluded: “Administration of the plant formulation for a period of 12 months resulted in a significant improvement in cognitive function, depression, and lab markers for inflammation and oxidative stress in the Alzheimers patients, when compared to placebo and Aricept.”
