HOPE

With the alarming rise in people battling memory issues, dementia, and the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, is there any hope? Let’s see.

First, let’s look at deficiencies that are linked to cognitive issues like dementia and Alzheimer’s.

Vitamin B12 deficiency has been linked to dementia. In addition, other key nutrients like vitamin B1, vitamin B6, and vitamin D are critical for optimal brain function. A deficiency in these key nutrients may contribute to cognitive decline.

Also, what may be called brain fats are critical for brain function as well. The brain is powered by glucose and ketones. Ketones are good fats that are essential for a healthy brain. Some of my favorite sources of good brain fats are butter and tallow from 100% grass-fed beef, organic cold-pressed coconut oil, and high-quality, organic 100% olive oil.

Because deficiences play a role in brain function, targeted nutritional support may be a great place to start. If you don’t know which supplements are right for you, you may consider non-invasive muscle testing or nutritional serum lab work to assess deficiencies.

When high-quality supplements and diet consumption aren’t enough to move the needle, then deeper issues need to be considered.

We are all exposed to toxins and parasites in a multitude of ways. These unaddressed parasites multiply. Unaddressed toxic exposures accumulate and can lead to cognitive and digestive dysfunction. They may also impair the thyroid, heart, liver, kidneys, and lungs.

Here are some toxins that are linked to brain issues. These may be underlying causes that contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.

1. Aluminum - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8028870/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8028870/. Aluminum toxicity and use of antioxidants.

2. Lead and cadmium - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7454042/

3. Mercury - https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0965229920307366

4. Parasites - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5618997/

5. More parasites - https://alzheimersnewstoday.com/news/study-reports-that-infection-by-parasite-could-be-linked-to-development-of-alzheimers/ and https://parasitesandvectors.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s13071-021-04928-7

If you checked out some of these studies, you may have noticed that they used the word reversible. How awesome is that?

I have given you a little food for thought. Now you can dig deeper and decide for yourself. Is there hope for supporting people who experience issues associated with memory such as Alzheimer’s and dementia?
