He feels that is is a combination of diet, exercise, sleep, hydration, socializing and specific Fotifeye supplements that have helped to reverse her dementia at 97. He really feels the Fortifeye Focus and Brain is responsible for her cognitive improvement. Fortifeye Focus and Brain is the exact same formula as Fortifeye Focus with the addition of a patented trademarked form of citicoline called Cognizin. There is a lot of clinical evidence that Cognizin can help to support a healthy brain and improve working memory. Nutrition for Dementia is becoming a huge topic at conferences. Dr Lange and Roger discussed what they ate for breakfast this am and how important protein is in everyone's diet. They also discussed the importance of taking some time off to relax. Dr Lange stated he had to run two tapes for the "ask the dr" medical talks shows over the last 2 weeks because he was at the Lumenis conference learning the latest with Opti Light and Opti Lift technology to help his patients with dry eyes. The Lange Eye Institute in The Villages Florida is the only dry eye center in the Villages that has Opti Light IPL and Opti Lift both made by Lumenis.

During the show Dr Lange stated they will run a 50% discount on Cartier, Guci, St Laurant and Mont Blanc frames for two weeks. Dr Lange also stated recently "ask the dr" was ranked at#3 place in medical talk shows only to be beat by Dr Phill and The Doctors.

Agnes' first symptom was years of back pain after a horseback riding incident. It was then that she stumbled upon this podcast, but she was not yet ready to embrace the paradigm of MindBody medicine. Then came the most unsettling diagnosis - Dry Eye. It may sounds innocuous, but Agnes was in 24 hour pain and discomfort. She could no longer wear the contact lenses she had used without incident for eighteen years, and she was advised that makeup was also forbidden. Agnes' doctor went as far as to tell her that she would most certainly be suffering for a lifetime, and things would only get worse. It wasn't until he advised her to stop breastfeeding to allow for daily use of steroid eye drops that Agnes put her foot down. As I say in my story: "Mess with me, but don't mess with my kids!" This led Agnes back to my work and pod, and wait until you hear how it went. Join us for a conversation that will give you confidence, hope, and the will to do this work for yourself. With love, n.
