Aging is the leading risk factor for cognitive decline, and projected statistics show that the number of people diagnosed with Alzheimer's will reach 8.5 million by 2030 and 11.2 million by 2040. Today, I am thrilled to connect with Dr. Heather Sandison, a naturopathic doctor and the founder and medical director of Solcere Health, a San Diego-based brain optimization clinic, and Marama, the first residential memory care facility that aims to return its residents to independent living. Dr. Sandison is also the New York Times bestselling author of Reversing Alzheimer's. In our conversation today, Dr. Sandison and I explored the most common signs of early cognitive decline, looking at ways to differentiate dementia from formal Alzheimer's disease. We dive into the causes of dementia and Alzheimer's, examining six key imbalances that can affect ApoE status and tackle the limitations of current approaches to Alzheimer's research. We also share information on current drug modalities and touch on the importance of brain-nurturing environments and helpful activities for maintaining cognitive status as we age. I look forward to having Dr. Sandison back for a second conversation, where we will dive deeper into practical ways to support and improve brain health. IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Some early signs of neurocognitive decline Barriers to care for those with dementia or Alzheimer's What differentiates dementia from Alzheimer's? Various factors that could cause Alzheimer's The role ApoE genetics play in Alzheimer's risk How addressing lifestyle factors can help prevent cognitive decline.

What if everything we've been told about Alzheimer's disease is backwards? Dr. Dale Bredesen, author of the New York Times bestseller "The End of Alzheimer's," returns to our program to shatter conventional wisdom with research showing cognitive decline can be prevented and even reversed.The traditional approach to Alzheimer's has failed spectacularly. Despite billions in research funding, pharmaceutical solutions have delivered minimal benefits. Why? Dr. Bredesen reveals the fundamental misunderstanding: Alzheimer's isn't a single-cause disease requiring a single drug, but rather a complex brain response to multiple insults. What we call Alzheimer's represents a "cytokine drizzle" – chronic, low-grade inflammation forcing the brain to downsize its synaptic network.Most surprisingly, amyloid – long considered the villain – is actually part of your brain's defense system! It creates "little igloos" around pathogens that have invaded brain tissue. This revolutionary understanding points to a completely different approach to prevention and treatment.Dr. Bredesen's protocol addresses the true underlying causes: insufficient energetics/support, excessive inflammation, and toxin exposure. His published research shows 84% of patients experience improvement, with benefits sustained for over a decade in many cases. Even advanced cases show meaningful functional gains – one patient is continent while on the protocol and incontinent when off it!Want to live to 100 or beyond with a sharp mind?

As we age, many of us will start noticing changes in our memory and brain function. While these changes might happen later in life, focusing on your brain health is never too early. Today's guest, Lindsey Byrne, shares how to improve your brain health and memory, prevent dementia and Alzheimer's, and stay sharp and productive throughout your life. In this episode, they talk about: Helping people improve brain health and prevent/reverse dementia and Alzheimer's The importance of working on brain health early in life, even for younger generations Lindsay's personal experience with her mother's Alzheimer's diagnosis and the Bredesen Protocol What can people hope to achieve by following the Bredesen protocol Dementia vs Alzheimer's, and how does the Bredesen Protocol address them Details of the Bredesen protocol — KetoFlex 12/3, exercise, stress management, and sleep The role of exercise, stress management, and quality sleep for brain health How can people find out if they are at risk for cognitive decline Resources available for people to get help with brain health and learn about the Bredesen Protocol Memorable Quotes: “It's never too early to start working on your brain health.” “The impact we're having on our brain health starts 30 years before we notice any symptoms.” “The earlier you catch cognitive decline, the better the results... The later you catch it, we can probably halt the decline, but potentially not much more.” BIO: Lindsey Byrne helps people to improve their brain health and memory, prevent dementia and even improve symptoms with an MCI diagnosis. She is a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach (FMCHC) and Certified Re:CODE 2.0 Health Coach. She helps: • people whose parents lived with dementia who'd like to work on prevention • anyone noticing any amount of change in memory, processing, or just noticing some brain fog (maybe through menopause or long covid) who'd like to sharpen up and stay sharp and productive for their whole lives. • those who believe food is medicine, are determined to improve their brain health (and health in general) through natural approaches and lifestyle adjustments, who have the grit and determination to work at it but just need some support to find the best approach for them and to make it stick.

The Rising Tide of Neurodegenerative Diseases: Prevention and Reversal Strategies In a recent episode of "Your Health Matters," host Karl Sterling and neurologist Dr. Dale Bredesen discussed the rising prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, dementia, and Parkinson's. They emphasized the importance of lifestyle changes in preventing and managing these conditions, offering practical advice for maintaining cognitive health. Alarming Statistics Sterling shares concerning statistics: - Alzheimer's Disease: 65 million Americans aged 65 and older are living with Alzheimer's. - Parkinson's Disease: Nearly 1 million Americans are affected, with numbers potentially rising to 12 million by 2030. - Type 2 Diabetes: Over 37 million Americans have diabetes, with 90-95% having type 2. This is linked to a 50% increased risk of dementia. Lifestyle Changes for Brain Health Diet: Dr. Bredesen recommends a plant-rich, mildly ketogenic diet to optimize brain function and reduce inflammation: - Healthy fats: avocados, nuts, olive oil. - Limit processed foods and sugar. - Increase fiber intake with vegetables and whole grains. Exercise: Regular physical activity maintains brain structure and function: - Aim for 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity weekly. - Include strength training and activities like yoga for balance and flexibility. Sleep: Quality sleep is vital for cognitive health: - Aim for at least seven hours per night. - Maintain a regular sleep schedule. - Create a restful environment and limit screen time before bed. Stress Management: Chronic stress harms the brain: - Practice meditation and mindfulness. - Engage in regular physical activity. - Maintain strong social connections. Brain Training: Cognitive exercises promote neuroplasticity: - Engage in puzzles, memory games, and new skills like learning a language. - Regular reading and writing can stimulate the brain. Detoxification: Reducing toxin exposure supports brain health: - Avoid environmental toxins. - Eat antioxidant-rich foods like berries and greens. - Support liver health with foods like garlic and turmeric. Targeted Supplements: Certain supplements boost brain function: - Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil and flaxseeds. - Choline from egg yolks and supplements. - Lion's Mane Mushroom for neurotrophic benefits. Early Detection and Intervention Dr. Bredesen highlights the importance of early detection, advocating for cognitive assessments and blood tests for those over 40. Key tests include p-tau217 for tau protein levels and GFAP for brain inflammation. Genetics and Environment Genetics and environment both play a role: - APOE4 gene increases Alzheimer's risk, especially with two copies. - Factors like poor oral health and chronic infections contribute to cognitive decline. Conclusion This episode of "Your Health Matters" provides valuable insights into preventing and managing neurodegenerative diseases. By focusing on lifestyle changes, including diet, exercise, sleep, stress management, brain training, detoxification, and supplements, individuals can proactively protect their brain health and potentially reverse cognitive decline. Through these strategies, listeners are empowered to make informed decisions for a healthier future.

You may be shocked that there are many studies that have taken place and are ongoing that show that people that have been diagnosed with cognitive decline. MoCa scores between 15 and 24 or even less, to improve with diet and lifestyle intervention. Amazing. Researchers like Bredesen, Toups, Ornish, Sandison, Fitzgerald, and now wait for this- 75-86% of the people get better. I don't know why this isn't front page news everywhere!

Dr. Sandison confesses that when she first heard Dr. Dale Bredesen talk about his work reversing cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease she was skeptical. But when she started to apply the Bredesen principles in her clinical work and saw just how meaningful the improvements were to patients' symptoms and quality of life, as she puts it: "...how do I do anything else with my life, but basically tell as many people who will listen that this is possible?" She then went on to found the first two residential care facilities for individuals with cognitive decline that are based on the Bredesen approach. She's published research on her clinical outcomes and is continuing to gather more data for publication. The information and inspiration she shares are relevant to anyone dealing with cognitive decline, caring for someone with cognitive decline, or even those of us who want to preserve and optimize cognitive function as we move through life. I found her report that environmental toxins were one of the most common findings among her patient population illuminating. - DrKF Head to https://www.drkarafitzgerald.com/fxme... for the transcription and all the resources.

For patients suffering from Alzheimer's disease, no memories are safe — from the recollections of daily responsibilities to our most cherished moments. And despite having invested billions of dollars over the last 30 years into Alzheimer's research, the pharmaceutical industry has approved few drugs, all of which are very expensive, and only slow the rate of decline. However, some Alzheimer's patients, refusing to accept this prognosis, are turning to a new method, spearheaded by American neurologist Dr Dale Bredesen. This precision medicine approach uses the expanded health data of each patient to find the root cause of their illness, and generate personalized protocols. Yet Dr. Bredesen, best-selling author of The End of Alzheimer's, faces constant skepticism from the mainstream medical community for his method, and his research was repeatedly denied approval for clinical trials until 2019. Even so, many patients following the protocol show signs of reversing their cognitive decline. Narrated by Michael Bublé, Memories for Life – Reversing Alzheimer's shows the eye-opening results of this life-changing treatment and questions why something with the potential to reverse such a devastating disease is not being embraced by medical researchers.

Angela is joined by Dr. Dale Bredesen, who discusses the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and the difference between Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. He emphasises the importance of early detection and treatment, as Alzheimer's is a progressive disease that can be present for many years before symptoms appear. Dr. Bredesen explains the four phases of Alzheimer's and the potential for prevention and reversal of cognitive decline through lifestyle interventions. KEY TAKEAWAYS Alzheimer's disease is a common and devastating form of dementia that affects millions of people worldwide. Alzheimer's is characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive function, including memory loss, difficulty with language and communication, and impaired daily functioning. Early detection and intervention are crucial in managing Alzheimer's disease. The earlier the treatment is initiated, the better the chances of preventing or reversing cognitive decline. Lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, sleep, stress management, brain training, detoxification, and targeted supplements play a significant role in preventing and managing Alzheimer's disease. Hormone therapy, specifically bioidentical hormone replacement, may be beneficial for women experiencing menopause-related cognitive decline BEST MOMENTS "Your generation is the first generation that does not have to fear Alzheimer's." "We can pretty much prevent it or do early reversals in just about everyone." "We do see people even in late stages where we get some improvement, but they don't tend to come all the way back to normal." "Sleep is one of the ways that you stay sharp, that you improve your processing speed."

Dr. Dale Bredesen discusses Reversing Alzheimer's Disease at the Functional Medicine Discussion Group meeting on July 27, 2023 with moderator Dr. Ben Weitz. [If you enjoy this podcast, please give us a rating and review on Apple Podcasts, so more people will find The Rational Wellness Podcast. Also check out the video version on my WeitzChiro YouTube page.] Podcast Highlights 5:35 Alzheimer's disease is now optional, because Dr. Bredesen's precision medicine approach can help to prevent and reverse Alzheimer's and it is hoped that this approach can be extended to all of the major neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Bredesen and his group have published over 220 peer-reviewed papers on the underlying mechanisms of neurodegeneration. On the conventional treatment front, so many amyloid antibody drugs have failed including bapineuzumab, solanezumab, gantenerumab, and crenezumab. The newest drugs include aducanumab, which has a minimal effect, and lecanemab (aka, Leqembi), which does have a measurable effect. But these new drugs do not make anyone better, but instead they lead to a slowing of the progression and they often have some negative side effects like brain bleeding and brain swelling and several patients have died. 7:40 Homotaurine. This is currently a nutritional supplement that is currently in clinical trials. It prevents the oligomerization of A-beta, so it looks like it may be a very interesting adjunct to other parts of the Bredesen protocol. The dosage used was either 100 mg three times per day or 150 mg twice per day. [Manzano S, Agüera L, Aguilar M, Olazarán J. A Review on Tramiprosate (Homotaurine) in Alzheimer's Disease and Other Neurocognitive Disorders. Front Neurol. 2020 Jul 7;11:614.] Combined metabolic activators (CMA) shows benefit in improving cognition in patients with Alzheimer's disease. CMA dosage includes: 12.35 g L-serine (61.75%), 1 g nicotinamide riboside (5%), 2.55 g N-acetyl-L-cysteine (12.75%), and 3.73 g L-carnitine tartrate (18.65%). AD patients received one dose of CMA or placebo daily during the first 28 days and twice daily between day 28 and day 84. [Yulug B, Altay O, Li X, et al. Combined metabolic activators improve cognitive functions in Alzheimer's disease patients: a randomised, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase-II trial. Transl Neurodegener. 2023 Jan 26;12(1):4. ] 8:39 Dr. Bredesen is starting a randomized controlled trial of his ReCode system with six absolutely fantastic clinicians: Craig Tanio down in Hollywood, Florida, Nate Bergman in Cleveland, David Haase in Nashville, Kristine Burke in Sacramento, Kat Toups in the East Bay, and Ann Hathaway in Marin County. 9:25 KetoFlex. Dr. Bredesen's recommended dietary approach for Alzheimer's disease, the KetoFlex and he worked with Nutrition for Longevity, a group founded by Dr. Valter Longo, to develop KetoFlex meals for home delivery, which is now available. 11:30 New lab tests for help with analyzing Alzheimer's disease: 1. p-tau 181, 2. p-tau 217 is coming soon, 3. Abeta 42:40, 4. Neurofilament light, and 5. GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein), which will be available soon. P-tau 181 lets you know that you have the specific signaling characteristic of Alzheimer's. The Abeta 42:40 test lets you know whether you are making Amyloid beta protein, which is typically associated with inflammation and with Alzheimer's. Neurofilament light is not specific for Alzheimer's, but it tells you that you do have neuronal damage. This also goes up in frontotemporal dementia and ALS and certain other neurodegenerative conditions. GFAP lets you know that you have reactive astrocytes in the brain, which can precede Alzheimer's disease. 16:00 When you compare the state of the treatments for Alzheimer's disease, with no treatment the patient's MOCA score will decline by about three and a half points and if you take the Lecanemab, which is the newest drug given FDA approval that costs about ...
My guest today is Dr. Dale Bredesen MD who is here to talk about all the new treatments for Alzheimer's and dementia. Dr. Bredesens is a pioneer in brain health research, and his 40 years of work in neurodegeneration has created multiple cutting-edge treatments that have shown great success in turning back cognitive decline. He combines a variety of approaches, including personalized testing, natural interventions, and lifestyle changes. The best part is that his approach is effective for all types of cognitive decline, not just Alzheimer's. It's incredible to hear that there is so much we can do to combat Alzheimer's and dementia and Dr. Bredesen's work is paving the way for future treatments. I'm thrilled to learn more about his approach and see how it can help generations to come. Enjoy!

Get ready to unlock your true potential and enjoy an unparalleled listening experience with our Impact Theory subscription service at https://impacttheorynetwork.supercast.com/ If you think you really understand Alzheimer's, think again! Alzheimer's is scary to witness up close and personal and even scarier when you consider that anyone who's had Covid-19 is at an increased risk for developing Alzheimer's! How many people in your immediate life does that impact? This conversation is for the people who've had Covid-19, people who want to think sharper, and people who are worried about developing Alzheimer's. An astounding 45 million people currently living in America will die with Alzheimer's disease and according to Dr Dale Bredesen, this number dwarfs the high rates of death we just experienced with Covid-19, it's just a slower process. This special episode is a panel discussion with two of the world's leading experts on Alzheimer's, Dr. Dale Bredesen and Dr. Richard Johnson. Dr. Bredesen is an international neurodegenerative expert and the author of, The First Survivors of Alzheimers, a book that spotlights first person accounts of his patients that not only survived Alzheimers, but who got back a second life to live with meaning and fulfillment. Dr. Richard Johnson, the fructose expert, wrote the book, Nature Wants Us To Be Fat. His focus and research points to the connection between Alzheimer's disease and sugar. This conversation between experts is enlightening and has a few points you'll want to take note of to further discuss with your healthcare professional. Dr. Bredesen reveals why a complete assessment of your brain, blood levels and more needs to be completed as early as 40 years old to start taking preventative measures to protect yourself from Alzheimer's. Alzheimer's has been referred to as type 3 diabetes and both experts agree that this disease is an insulin resistant state of the brain. What can you start doing today to lower your risks and the risks of the people you love? QUOTES: “My generation, the old timers now, is the last generation that should fear Alzheimer's, it is literally becoming optional” -Dale Bredesen “Features of metabolic syndrome which is obesity, diabetes, insulin resistance, all of these are risk factors for Alzheimer's.” -Richard Johnson “Sugar and high fructose corn syrup are two major culprits that probably have a role in the cause of Alzheimer's.” -Richard Johnson “So many people get this wrong, a keto diet versus a plan rich keto diet, it makes all the difference. For brain health you want a plant rich ketogenic diet with appropriate periods of fasting.” -Dale Bredesen “The hypothesis that we published is that fructose production in the brain may have a major role in causing Alzheimer's.” -Richard Johnson “When you're talking about Alzheimer's you're also talking about mental performance.” -Dale Bredesen “People who developed Covid-19 are at increased risk for developing Alzheimer's.” -Dale Bredesen FOLLOW Dr. Dale Bredesen: Website: https://www.apollohealthco.com/dr-bredesen/ LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/dale-bredesen-2ab0651/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drdalebredesen/ Follow Richard Johnson: Website: https://drrichardjohnson.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drrichardjjohnson/ RESTART your life in 7 days: http://bit.ly/42KM8OR Sponsors: Learn more about your ad choices.
