Alzheimer's - Prevention and Recovery


May 2006 - Health Care Industry Report
"High-dose vitamin B12 for at-home Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer's Disease"
http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0ISW/is_274/ai_n16359687
Report: "It is interesting to consider what proportion of Alzheimer's dementia (AD) may result from under-nutrition, (1) especially when it seems that there may be an easy, low-cost, perfectly safe, nutritional way that may allow people to avoid a miserable illness that many people consider worse than death. Some people might say, "That's too good to be true!" In fact, an at-home nutritional program, using a lot of vitamin B12 may indeed prevent and virtually eliminate AD. An early launch of the treatment soon after first warning symptoms start could even turn off the process.
   Most cases of Alzheimer's dementia are actually missed B12 deficiency cases, because of the too-low normal range for B12," wrote John V. Dommisse, MD in 1991 in Medical Hypotheses. Dommisse, who practices medicine in Tucson, Arizona, has confirmed that Alzheimer's disease appears to result from too-low serum vitamin B12, and repletion of the vitamin succeeds despite other risk factors. Repleting B12, according to Dommisse, can Reverse 75% of B12 Deficiency Dementias when the condition is discovered early enough."

Alzheimer's Statistics
1979 -      653 Deaths due to Alzheimer's
2004 - 60,000 Deaths due to Alzheimer's

More Women than Men
Age 65+ - More Women than Men have Alzheimer's - Ratio 2/3 Women 1/3 Men
Note: When Women in this Age Group were in their 20s, Diet Sodas were 1st being Manufactured and Advertised as Helping Women with Weight Loss

Alzheimer's Not Caused by Age
Women in their 20s and 30s had Alzheimer's Symptoms
  
1995 - "A hospice nurse, Susan Laird, called in l995 to say Alzheimer patients being admitted were as Young as 30 Years Old" http://www.wnho.net/prevalence_of_alzheimers.htm

1997 - "When NutraSweet first came on the market 10 years ago, I switched to it from saccharin for my Soft Drinks (Sodas made with sugar taste too "sticky" for me).  Shortly thereafer, my short-term memory started going.  I would be in the middle of a sentence and totally forget what I was talking about.  I would walk down the hall in my house to go to another room and forget what room I was going to, much less what I was going *for*, by the time I made it down 12 feet of hallway.
   I was 29 years old and convinced that I was having advanced symptoms of Alzheimer's, it was that bad. But then a friend of mine said that her doctor told her to stay away from NutraSweet (aspartame), as it destroyed the synapses (the little gaps in the brain that keep your memory circuits running), and after I stopped using NutraSweet, my memory came back."

What Trigger's Alzheimer's? - Flu Vaccine?
Dr. Russell Blaylock - Video Clip http://www.sweetremedy.tv/pages/alzeimers.html
Author, "Defense Against Alzheimer's Disease"
   Research Group - People who took the Flu Vaccine 5 Years in a row, were 1,000 times more likely to have Alzheimer's

1918 - Worst Flu Epidemic in History
No Vaccine - Recovery Helped by Orange Juice

    In the book, "Back to Eden" by Jethro Kloss is this Statement: "During the time of the severe Epidemic of Influenza this country suffered following the World War I, a Doctor published in a Paper that if the People would use quantities of Orange Juice, Fever would be allayed and the Patient would Recover. He extolled the Value of Orange Juice. It was found by Practical Experience that it would bring Results.
    There was a Great Lesson in it for the People; if they would only use Fruit Juices in all Fevers, what a Blessing it would be to Mankind."

Alzheimer's and Red Meat?
* "Brain Trust: The Hidden Connection Between Mad Cow and Misdiagnosed Alzheimer's" by Colm Kelleher, Ph.D. www.ColmKelleher.com
  "Toronto coroner Dr. Murray Waldman...there is a Statistical Link between Eating Red Meat and Alzheimer's Disease." http://www.rense.com/general66/amdm.htm

Alzheimer's in India
   There is very little Alzheimer's in India. The Religion of Hinduism forbids Eating Meat.

PREVENTION

Medical Report - DIET Role in Preventing Alzheimer's
Benefits of Fruit and Vegetable Juices

August 31, 2006 - A study at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, supported by the National Institute on Aging, and published in The American Journal of Medicine, showed people who drank Fruit and Vegetable Juices more than 3 Times a Week were 76% less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease than those who drank juices less than once a week.
   Researchers followed nearly 2,000 Japanese-American adults from King County, Washington for 10 Years. The participants were age 65 or older and were free of signs of Alzheimer's or Demenia at the start of the study. Self reported dietary information was obtained from 1,589 of the adults. The average age of this group was 72 years at the start of the study.
   Previous studies show Japanese adults living in Japan have a lower incidence of Alzheimer's disease. But Japanese people living in the U.S. have higher rates of the disease, which suggests that ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS such as DIET and Lifestyle may play an Important Role in the Development of Alzheimer's disease."

RECOVERY


GOOD NEWS - New Brain Cells Created
   March 16, 2001 - See the State University of New Jersey report, "Brain's Recuperative Powers May be Greater than Previously Thought" at http://nootropics.com/regenerate/index.html
   "Contrary to long-held popular belief, our Brains may not only Produce New Brain Cells or Neurons throughout life, but the Newly Generated Neurons quickly become involved in the Formation of New Memories, a Fact that may have Positive Implications for the Recuperative Powers of our own Brains when Damaged by Stroke or other Disease or Trauma."

Dr. David Steenblock Reveals Key to Brain Repair
   Dr. Steenblock is the Founder and Director of *The Brain Therapeutics Medical Clinic* in Mission Viejo, California. He works with not only Stoke Patients, but also those with Cerebral Palsy, Traumatic Brain Injury, Parkinsons' Disease, Autism and Alzheimer's Disease.
   November 2001 - See a Review of the Article from "Health & Fitness Magazine" at the Minnesota Wellness Directory website: http://www.mnwelldir.org/who.htm
   Dr. Steenblock: "Thirty Years ago (1971) if you had a Stroke or Traumatic Brain Inury, your future was bleak. At that time, the Medical Profession in general did Not Believe that a Brain-Damagged Person could Recover beyond what Physical Therapy could do for the person. Even then, 50% of the Doctors thought that Physical Therapy had No Value while the other 50% thought it might have Some Value so were at least Willing to Refer their Patients to Physical Therapists.
   Back then it was very Pessimistic. Everyone in the Field had written these People Off as Hopeless...the Doctors had No Tools to Help them."
   Different Clinically *Proven* Treatments for Brain Repair are offered at the Clinic. http://www.strokedoctor.com/

New Brain Pathways - New Brain Connections
   July 3, 2006 - CBS News report "Brain, Heal Thyself":
www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/07/03/eveningnews/printable1774242.shtml
   The Story is about Terry Wallis, a former auto mechanic, who was in a car accident. He suffered severe brain injuries and was unable to move or speak for 20 years. Then suddenly, over a 3 day period, he went from saying his first couple of words to recovery of fluent speech.
   Doctors at Weill Cornell Medical College studied Terry's brain for 18 Months.
They documented the Growth of New Fibers - not Brain Cells, but tiny New Pathways that seemed to RESTORE Function: Speech, Personality and even a limited ability to Move. Pictures of his brain show that the Brain is Mending Itself.
  "For now, looking at this one incredible case, Brain Specialists know they're standing at the edge of a New Frontier of Understanding."
