You Never said HOW YOU overcame YOUR early dementia!!!
Thank you for passing on all of your experiences regarding this terrible disease! I shall keep watching your programme, it is extremely useful! Thanks a lot!
I had a stroke and was diagnosed with dementia. I did the execises🎉 to regain my strength and use my brain and became normal. It was tough but with determination , it can be done, never give up.
how old were you at the time? my dad is 77, had a bilateral cerebral stroke and was diagnosed with vascular dementia
what did you do that helped ?
Can you please suggest those exercises?
What are the exercises ?
She describes them
My mother’s second husband was not functioning well, leaving cigarettes all over the house, memory bad, could not find his way home. He didn’t want to drink water and lived on coffee, soda and beer. Whenever he fell and had to go to the hospital, he could converse and understand fine, and we realized it was because he was hydrated with a drip. My friend who worked at a nursing home said the patients don’t want to drink much because they don’t want to lose control of their bladder. They mostly were just sitting in a stupor in the halls. A new girl took it upon herself to give all of them a glass of water, and a half hour later most of them were up walking around and talking, but the staff had to go chasing after the few that decided to leave out the front door.
Wow! Thanks for that info. That's amazing.
Awesome information!!! And it’s probably true that most attendants are aware that more work is needed after the drink of water such as changing diapers. And maybe this is why they withhold the water.
Interesting that during Covid in Quebec Canada the military was brought in to help in senior homes as there was absolute chaos with the senior care homes. On reports from military personal it was stated that a major health problem in the care homes was dehydration. Not getting enough fluids....that simple.
@@jaygirlization ….right. Also I learned that you can hand them the water, but have to stand there so they remember to drink the whole thing.
Yes, dehydration is destructive to the entire body.
Dr.Dale Bredesen, a researcher is also source of incredible knowledge about dementia, Azheimers and their reversal. These people who have problems must educate themselves and apply these simple rules:1.
1. Clean diet: keto recomended, no gluten
2. Everyday excercise increase BDNF: HIIT, weight training,
3. Reduce stress and increase BDNF: meditation, love someone something
4. Oral hygiene
5. Sleep 71/2 hours
6. Learn something new
I would add getting a dog from a shelter, do some acts of altruism and find passion in life will not only make you live longer and healthier but will give you lots of joy and fun.
Certainly add:
Psychedelics...reading the Bible daily..."without the Son,...no one comes to the Father".
@jane matthew Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor.
@@frankfromupstateny3796 buyctycct❤❤😅
I'd say correct gut health with keto or scd diets. Maintain good blood sugar levels. Learn about food intolerance. A recent study with rats showed that rats developed alzheimers after being given fecal matter from alzheimers patients. That seriously involves gut health. Learn what you can to restore the gut.
@@frankfromupstateny3796
I would add to only take psilosybin in a monitored trial. Patients are vetted. Some are vulnerable to develop psychosis and aggressive schizophrenia after using random psychedelics and should NOT take psychedelics. This is rare but it can happen.
Dr. Toups: THANK YOU for mentioning hearing loss!!!! I’m a doctor of audiology & it cannot be stressed enough-our hearing connects us to PEOPLE. We NEED to hear our loved ones & our lives around us!!!! Loved this video in its entirety…..husband with recent brain injury & our ketogenic journey, which began 6 months before the accident has been one of the keys to his ongoing recovery!
My mom went from going into a hospice situation to walking and dancing in 5 months. I gave her supplements and sunshine. My brother has pulled her back into a toxic diet and seclusion. It's awful dealing with him
Praying for you, I'm so sorry. Holy Spirit Comforting. God Knows your heart ❤
what supplements? Thiamine?
Omega 3 rich foods nd supplements matter.
Anytime you think an elder is in trouble contact your state agency for Medicare for a wellness check or to try to get custody. It's the same people you contact for child abuse. In this case have your studies available and other evidence or witnesses for your mom's recovery. Prepare to take care of her or find an assisted living situation or live in who will do this work.
My brother has dementia.he can't sleep and all he eats is sugar . Very sad.
How terrifying that this woman was having this problem. She is smart enough to figure it out. I would love to know her. Such courage!
😮 Why isn’t this front page news?!!! This is life changing information!!! Thank you!!! I’m finding a functional medicine doctor ASAP! My mother has dementia, so I appreciate this video very much
Where do you find a functional medicine dr. ?
@@gailtoburen6693 Google it! Search for “functional medicine doctors near me” or “alternative or integrative medicine doctors near me.” I found Tenpenny Integrative Medicine Clinic in Ohio. Dr. Clapper is who I see & I highly recommend her
It is not front page because lifestyle changes does not sell pills. Unfortunately, this is how it works. I have been following Dr Bredesen for a number of years and have been living this precise lifestyle for quite some time. My mom had dementia my father heart attack and my brother cancer. I have become a student at how to avoid all of these and live a wonderfully healthy and still working on the happiness part:)
Big pharmas are not happy when people get well, they want customers for life
@@144Donn That's wonderful!!! Does Dr. Bredesen have a youtube channel?
I lost my mind just before lock down in covid and was quite scary as i was alone...and after an MRI that showed my brain was shrinking faster than normal for my 70yrs...my doctor said there was nothing he could do after i had done research and found that there was...I started a keto diet and within a few days noticed improvement in cognition...it has been a long journey, 3 yrs. It has been a gradual improvement in the many things i have found to help this body and this brain...today i believe my brain will be better than it was before covid...continued improvement daily...
Low levels of vitamin B12 can have that effect also a underactive thyroid.
myralhf, Perhaps you could try moving gently to Ketovore first & then full Carnivore plus some intermittent fasting. Make sure that your digestion is working properly first. One care business in USA had great results with Alzheimer's patients by feeding them Carnivore diet.

I look after my mum she has parkinsons dementia and had a stroke. I try to my best to help her. I've cared 24 7 for her for 12 years.
That's a long stretch,I have been looking after my mother for 3 years next month,she had a fall,fractures,heel ulcer that started in hospital,that eventually healed though she had PAD,she had a TIA ,bladder cancer luckily successful op.,fractures hip all within a year during lockdown,with Dementia .
It has been a rough ride!
God bless the both of you for your love and patience for your family.
@@itsmeLisar414 Thanks 🙏
Maybe adding these steps she's using with her patients can begin reversal. Keto, exercise (building up to it), Sun and fresh air was the key to facilitate healing people back in the day when put into institutions. Also maybe start a gratitude journal one for each of you. YOU also need to take care of yourself!!! The body knows how to heal given what it needs however the mind plays a big role too. Check into the Heart Math, it's fascinating. Blessings. ❤
Please take a look at this video about a nursing home that has helped a lot of dementia patients thru diet. Another excellent interview. ruclips.net/video/8owAcO8lIwY/видео.htmlsi=qKvokSVD3-yu_cyY
I have a friend who was a teacher. He has frontal lobe dementia. The Dr said his brain has deteriorated. It is so tragic for his family.
I see dementia all through my mom’s side of the family…my grandmother, her sister, at least six of her ten kids. We just buried one a few months ago, and others are following. None of them smoked. But I did test with Fragile-X syndrome, and believe that’s the cause of the dementias. My grandmother had it before we knew what Alzheimer’s was. I watched her pour Ivory dish soap in the percolator, then she smiled at me. At 12 years old, I was too shy to question her methods. But then when my aunt complained about the soapy tasting coffee, my grandmother told her I might not have rinsed the dishes well enough, and they grounded me (I had to laugh while proofreading…pun not intended🤣). I still was too shy to defend myself. She began losing her hearing that summer, too. ‼️ I don’t believe hearing loss causes dementia. I believe it’s a SIGN of dementia. One of the first signs of dementia is inability or declining sense of smell in left nostril. You can test this with a fresh container of peanut butter and a yard stick. You can also test it by trying to draw a clock.
SO if Fragile-X related disorder (FXTAS) is the cause of mental decline, I’m not sure you can recover from that.
But don’t let me be the reason for not trying. After all, you can try and maybe fail, or you can do nothing and definitely fail. If anything, hope helps.
Another thing to consider: If the cognitive declining patient has ever had a joint replacement - especially metal on metal joint (where metal ball, for instance, will be grinding on a metal socket) - it may be the cause of the decline. A doctor had a joint replaced and his mind deteriorated quickly, until they replaced the joint with plastic. His metal levels were through the roof. He made a good recovery. But my neighbor wasn’t so fortunate. She died in a nursing home.
Take care of your brain, and your brain will take care of you.

Good to read your bits of new little things.
Excellent interview! Thank you for not interrupting the good doctor, much appreciated.
Agree. Too many interviewers either interrupt or they ask questions that go on for FAR too long.
The meditation I do every opportunity allows me, is self hynotism. I was taught by a psychologist how to relax myself and it worked. This is one of the best solutions for overfatigue, stress, anxiety, fears etc. My exercise every other day started when covid came in. Kat Toups is right about diet, meditation and exercise. However, these suggestions are more effected if it is coupled with prayers. I am 70 years old.
I need to do the same since I found anxiety is such a killer to my health. However I couldn’t live without working , exercise is one of the way to get me out from the stress , however I think learning to calm myself down during the night is even more essential
Truth 💜🙏🏻😃💙
@@florameng521 I'm encouraging chemical free gardening. Praying for strength to get my garden going this year. Please pray for my Mom and Dad, dad's in the icu after a bad fall and pneumonia that he's struggling to recover from. He can't form words and I don't understand why. I don't think he understands why either and it's frustrating him. His hearing and vision seem worse, he couldn't hear before this though years ago he got a hearing aid implant, he still struggles. I'm trying to research tonight to make a list of questions and ideas to discuss with his medical team that seems lacking motivation to explore beyond the typical hospital and insurance factory that isn't Individualized nearly where it needs to be. I fear the system will run us over with their methods and procedures for manging patients like him but my advocacy could make us "difficult", so I'm praying for guidance so I don't incite harmful retaliation to Dad, but still get my points across in a meaningful, productive way that instead, invokes them to dig deeper, research, explore alternative therapies, tests and most of all, to keep fighting for my dad.
Prayers appreciated, to which I thank all who pray, very much. I feel weak and powerless. Your faith is uplifting. God bless you and keep you. In Jesus name amen and amen.

I took some I f m seminars with Kat, I enjoyed her company. We were among the few psychiatrists that were studying functional medicine. I think I remember talking to her about what was going on cognitively. I'm glad to have taken the functional medicine courses and also to study hormone replacement therapy intensively. I was older, in my mid forties, when I started studying both of those topics than I am now at age seventy.
Would you please talk little bit about the hormone therapy, i find it very essential topic and there’s a little out there about it, since you have knowledge please share it, books, talks…… thank you so much

Would love for you to make a video sharing all your wisdom! I'm Subscribing in hopes you do. God bless ❤😊❤
@@Salsabilanow1111The questioner and all those that liked this comment must have dementia because HORMONES are the 2nd-to-last thing she taks about..😅😂
Do you know that the UDSA has changed the requirements for "free range" chickens? It is now ruled that the door to the barn has to be open for 1 HOUR in order to qualify as being "free range" - this means the chicken "COULD go outside" - FABULOUS REWORDING TECHNIQUE!
Horrifying. Thank you. I had no idea.
What's UDSA?
🙄😬🥴
Worth a 30-60 minute drive to a farm or small chicken farmer once a month!
The alphabet in the government is a joke USDA AND FDA. I could go on
U are amazing, I ask God’s protection n blessings over u n your team. I’m grateful to see people like u who want to help. I was recently told at 63 that I would not have my drivers license renewed because I have macular degeneration. It was devastating n don’t know what I’ll do when I loose my independence. TY❤️
WOW. My mom has dementia but is still able to live on her own and drive minimally. It's heartbreaking to see someone who was once the social director of her friends start to become reclusive, sleep a lot and begin to slip mentally and she's often aware of it so it's soul crushing to witness it. I retired in June so I am with her daily but left to her own desires, she'd sit in front f the t.v. and the news or Hallmark eating chips, ice cream and stouffers microwaved meatloaf.
I have watched tons of videos and this is by far THE BEST. I am doing everything I can to beat the disease back: music, dancing, walking, sunshine, walking, eating cleaner, reading, playing modified scrabble, word searches, puzzles, encouraging her to go to church, get together with her lifelong friends. I have her on about 15 supplements a day and just yesterday started a language app. I know toxins play a huge role for my mom so am going to try her to use our sauna because she NEEDS to sweat. God willing this will help her. Thanks for this video, fantastic and encouraging.:)
Congratulations, lucky mother, don’t forget the coconut oil and perhaps keto or low-carb, and definitely no sugar!! Namaste 🙏
Brilliant. I am spending a month a year with my mum and I wonder how practical and desirable or undesirable it would be to try to modify these things for just a month. I do try to get her out to walk as much as she is happy to do and play Scrabble with her every day. She also has a reasonable social life.
My mom just stayed with me for 5 days and I noticed a difference in her cognition and attribute it to being well hydrated, eating cleanly, no sugar and getting outside...Seinfeld helped too...laughter is key!@@richarddobson4382
All these symptoms and more, I had them during the menopause transition. Thanks to my daughter and her husband, both doctors, who gave the diagnosis. It was a horrendous experience but I survived.
Did you have dementia? How did you overcome it? I noticed that recently I am forgetful constantly forgetting things that are embarrassing, asking same questions always to remember and not able to match information to make a sense out of it and forgetting completely. I think I am having the on set of dementia. Any one has an advice for me?
I would definitely consider keto diet and definitely add quality MCT oil to your daily diet.
There are some exercises you can do to help your brain. These aren’t in replacement of your doctor’s treatment or medications, but they will help your brain (and certainly can’t hurt).
Learn. Find something, a new language, a new skill, a new subject, and learn. Even your own language contains words you don’t know. Learn new words and use them.
Memorize lists, such as states, countries, bones, birds, etc. Try to recite them daily, and learn new lists.
Talk to yourself (or the cat, dog, stuffed animal) just talk out loud. Keep in mind that everything becomes weaker with less use. That includes your vocal and thinking skills.
Draw. It doesn’t matter how good you are. Just draw.
Learn a new song. There are plenty of songs online. Find one and listen to it, and make yourself learn the words.
Do math. I hate math. My brain isn’t wired for it. But I do try to understand it.
Write. Make up stories. Find three to five random words and try to connect them with a story…or even a sentence. So for instance, choosing the first five interesting yet unrelated words off my Facebook feed: twins, drive, energy, chicken, lumber The twins barely had enough energy to drive chickens off the pile of lumber that was sitting in the back yard. Just make stuff up. Use your creativity.
Find puzzle apps and do puzzles every day. Buy word puzzle magazines from the magazine rack at the grocery store.
Exercise. Keep moving. Dance. Learn a new dance. Climb up and down the stairs, if you don’t have balance issues.
If you do have balance issues, work on your balance. Hold on to a chair and stand on one foot. Move your hands and try to stand on that one foot for 10 seconds…20…30…build up your time. Repeat with other foot.
Practice walking heel-to-toe. Ask a friend to help you, if your balance is too bad. Build up your balancing skills.
Learn sign language. This will help two ways: 1. You are learning a new skill. This builds brain passages.
2. If you lose your ability to speak, you may still be able to communicate through sign. Personally, I think we should all learn it in school.
These are just a few suggestions. Keep learning, keep moving, keep doing. Nobody who is reading this is dead yet. That means you can still build your brain. ❤️
Have to not curse.
Truly Excellently Posed Ideals to try with my dear friend! ❤ 😊😅😂
After my C0VID jab injury I had memory loss including how to spell and do math (At 50 I was in college and had a 98 average in both Intermediate Algebra and Elements of Chemistry and edited a Social Problems Study guide and paid by Simon & Schuster. I do have Seen a Word books but I use an app WordScapes that forces my brain to see letters and find words. Aphantasia is one of the issues after the jab. No photogenic memory, rote issues a problem, difficulty remembering names and people's faces.
In many ways, it's kind of a trap to think you have to "exercise" your brain to stave off dementia. It's really 90% of all the other factors Kat discusses in this video. I always tell people, "Put down that damn sudoko and get outside, and laugh with friends." Food choices (& food timing) also of course key. And managing stress & infections.
@@yosbcn801 Of course. Those help, also. It’s not a trap. It’s like every other body part, if you don’t use it, you lose it.
I’m not a doctor, but we have dementia throughout our family on both sides. This is hereditary in our family; I believe it’s Fragile-X premutation (FXTAS). But I don’t know if puzzles, learning new languages, singing, etc can help stave off dementia. I do believe, based on my own research and family members who died with FXTAS, that anesthesia from major surgeries can make dementia worse. My dad mentioned this before I had ever heard of Fragile-X . He had four major surgeries in one year, and he claimed his memory worsened with each surgery. So one at risk for dementia can also avoid things, to help prevent its occurrence prematurely. However, I don’t know if avoiding anesthesia, aerosols, and environmental toxins could prevent dementia from occuring in people genetically prone; but it does have an effect on them if they do breathe in the toxins.
Edit: Oh, and yes, thank you for mentioning it: socializing is very important for the brain. This isn’t great news for us with Fragile-X who find face-to-face socializing very difficult. We just need to get out more.
Thank you so much for sharing this. My mother died with early onset dementia and my sisters and I have been worried for quite a while.
Biggest thing to do is a Clean diet: Mediterranean diet or keto recommended, no gluten ( some people with hypoglycemia can't do keto & fasting). Use coconut oil.
2. Everyday exercise increase BDNF: HIIT, weight training,
3. Reduce stress and increase BDNF.
@annking1576 Also use Gotu Kola and Ginkgo Biloba leaf, boil a tablespoon of each, strain to drink.
Thankyou so much for sharing, it's really helped me
Thank you so much for sharing this information. ❤
Thank you for this video. I found it tremendously helpful.
Wonderful what an amazing work you do🙏☘️🌺
Many thanks for the useful information you've provided.
Excellent discussion. So eye opening! Thank you.
Great information, thankyou for all the work you do 👍
thank you so much..... I am so blessed...... fantastic information to know of.....
A very important interview. Thank you for giving us tools and hope for long term cognitive health ❤
This is a fantastic, informational interview. Kat is terrific at explaining the important points of the latest research on brain health. She also gave me great hope that I can stay relatively brain healthy into my later years (I'm 81 now). And what I should focus on currently. Thank you very much.
Very insightful!
excellent! thank you!
Me encanta esta entrevista. Ahora estoy consciente de cómo cuidarme para prevenir. Gracias!
Good to know, I experienced this with my mother, she was 92 years old. Was not easy on me, I am very grateful to listen to you, with your experience.
I have Lyme it went chronic in 2018 and my brain was very effected I also developed gum disease which I had treatment for & a professional medical herbalist treated me for Lyme I recovered a lot and I take supplements daily at one time I couldn't drive or even shop it has left me with dyslexia but I am at least 60-70% better physically diet is crucial I use a Paleo diet and did Pilates for a while after I got me strength back but walking is my best exercise I believe a lot of people have undiagnosed Lyme
Thank you!! I have been keto for a year. I am better, but I’m still having memory slips. I look forward to resourcing your mindbodygreen.
Thank you!
Wow, amazing addition about the hormones. Thank you! 😮❤
This lady is an inspiring and wonderful resource, I love this interview thanks very much 👍
Please address the issue that statins are TERRIBLE for your brain! These medications for cholesterol are lowering cholesterol in your brain! And it is being lowered too much! Cholesterol is not the problem!
Agree!
Me too I’d never take those drugs, they weaken the bones as well.
I got into an argument with my doctor about it only to find that he travels the world giving lectures about his sponsoring statin. (In other words, they were wining, dining, bribing him to sing their song.)
Statins cause dementia and diabetes which in turn increases your risk for a stroke by 4 times. Your brain needs cholesterol. If you are on a statin make sure you take co q10.
What a wonderful perso !
Wonderful thanks xx
❤Excellent video! Thank you!❤
I am a survivor of traumatic brain injury. Dementia runs in my family, including my dad (maybe), his mom, & I think her dad, so with those two risk factors my neurologist expected me to start exhibiting dementia by age 30. 20 years and a pandemic after my 30th year, I finally started displaying symptoms, though I'm still functional at a mostly age-appropriate level. Thank you for providing this including, so i have a better idea what to expected & can possibly do something about it!
Thanks a lot.
Kat, so nice to see this view of your current journey! I share many aspects of your shift in perspective. Great video!
Thanks
Such exciting research....
Amazing interview!!! She is so genuine and honest. Love it. Thank you.
i want to hear more. don't leave when we are charged up!
Great interview for sure. I want to recommend Dr. Kat to delve deeper into the concepts of the ketogenic diet because some claims she has made are completely false and are very well understood today.
Amazing interview! Thank you 🙏
BUT please include the contact links, socials and website of your guests in the notes!
I am so pleased that you made the distinction between synthetic and natural plant based hormones. Cancer is from the synthetic hormones. Not the plant based hormones. I have been using wild yam cream which brings about progesterone in my body.
Vitex is good as a tea also
Well once the dementia starts how do you get that person to do the things that they need to do to get better because sometimes they're in another sphere they're not thinking straight there repeat repeating things and forgetting things and you know anger and there's all kinds of things start to go on how do you get this get that person to do any of these things to reverse it
❤❤❤fascinating
I'm 76 years old, a many years back I had an experienced , can't count dimes n nickles to make a dolar, can't distinguish
1.85 to $185. Had a dream why there is a man in my room realized it is my husband. I panicked what I did was I practice multiplication long nos. and long addition and my memory came back.
Wow, that's awesome!!! God bless you.
Nice work. Best wishes
Great interview!
Brilliant talk...thank you Kate...!
Parting message" Dementia is NOT a life sentence, it is reversible!
Really enjoyed listening to Kat so interesting and her Information is so valuable to help people.
My BFF was a dance 💃 teacher and did HRT…she has frontal lobe dementia 🤷♀️…I have hearing loss from Otosclerosis…(not aging hearing loss) one ear …mild in the other …I have one hearing aid now but will get another for my other because I believe best for brain
Very useful info…Thank you. Wish I had known sooner. My mom and 2 aunts all had dementia and passed away last year.
Kat's own story is extraordinary. 🤔
PS: "Ketogenic" means vitamins. But "Paleo"? "Cadillac team"? "Oxidative stress"? "Heart math"? "Amyloid"? "Luminosity"?
Plenty of sweating & at least 8 hours sleep per night seems to be the answer. 👍
Come on it’s easy to figure out why they don’t want to put this information there because they will lose money on the drugs.
I started taping my mouth at night because I am noticing I mouth breath at night even though I am normally a nose breather I noticed I am getting up less to pee and I sometimes will sleep better without waking in the night
A love your story. I need help!!!
What dental products did you use in trials?
Yard work in Florida is sweaty work! But lots of mold here.
Also folks.. refuce systemic inflammation.
How? Read the book:
Metabolical today, by Dr. Robert H. Lustig...who speaks about a major component- food. Read, learn, then...teach.
Dr. Livingood of Livingood Daily is a huge proponent of replacing pharmaceuticals with nutrition and other natural therapies. He's constantly teaching ways to detox, support the liver, get to and maintain a healthy weight, normalize blood sugar, get enough magnesium, and almost everything Dr. Toups mentions here. I would love to see a collab between you two, or you three as the case may be.
I learned s lot today. That's
Hi Kat from Tango!
I like this video on Alzheimer's disease
I’d be interested to know if her MCS improved as well?
When talking bout oral health and the proximity of nose and mouth to the brain ( jut before 16min into the video) the impact of the brain blood barrier is not mentionned Why
omega-3 rich foods plus supplements
morning sun walk.
greens, beans, mushrooms, berrrs, seeds/nuts.
control monitor bp, blood sugar, bad fat.
I would like to know her opinion on a whole food plant based diet. With lots of fiber.
I'm definitely an advocate of whole food diets that are mostly plants.
You do have to work to make sure you have enough healthy fats in a 100% plant-based diet, but it can be done.
And of course make sure you are supplementing with B12 and CoQ10.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS INFORMATION.
THIS INFORMATION CONCERNING ORAL HYGIENE....
IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE DENTAL INSURANCE COVERAGE IN OUR MEDICARE PACKAGE...... We MUST HAVE DENTAL HEALTH CARE ......
I wish I could be in one of these studies.😞
When the neurologist said that my 66 Year old brain had shrunken more than was normal for my age & that nothing could be done & just told me to have a vitamin supplement daily , I was shocked, sad, scared & felt depressed. In a month I’ll be 70 & don’t expect a happy birthday.
Oh bless you, try and be positive, join a group and try to keep active. I do so hope you have a happy birthday🎉
Relaxations, meditations helping.
Nutritions matter. No on ultraprocessed foods, drinks as preventions.
Greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds/nuts.
I can't include the berries- I've been a type 1 diabetic for 52 years and I've decided to come off the berries because of the sugar in them.
What do I do who have a series of brain-based mental illnesses which includes bipolar I rapid cycling with mixed states which cause weeks on end of 3-4 hours of sleep diagnosed at twelve years sobriety, plus now also BPD and prolonged PTSD. I am now 75 and have been on so many psychiatric medications through the years. Diagnosed in spring 1988 with bipolar and at the same time was also diagnosed with Graves’ disease at same time & treated with radioactive iodine. I have had numerous ECT treatments since the horrible “postpartum” depression that was not labeled that in 1973. That was the first series of bilateral ECT as inpatient. Too many of the medications, I was more toxic with side effects of meds did not work. No antipsychotics are plausible due to rare side effects.
I hate the ECT treatments because I am scared after numerous ones I’ve had. I hate feeling out of control or not knowing. I have chronic 3rd stage kidney disease the nephrologist says are results of 25 years of lithium use. They have scared my kidneys. I have hyperactive parathyroid glands from this as well. I just had my 47 years continuous sobriety, been cigarette free coming 37 years this July 1. These mental brain diagnoses have destroyed 2 marriages. First was 13+ years with 6 years sober. I’m in divorce process again, after 35 years with my Beloved when he moved out over year ago and filed divorce papers, “because I’m too old to take this anymore.”
Life had become so toxic between us after self-isolation to avoid COVID. Our therapist said it was ironic that we were casualties of covid without getting it. I have always been the one more willing to work on healing our relationship issues, he has always been the one who tries to avoid conflict at any cost. The anger & contempt grows & we can no longer be kind to each other. My heart has been broken. I have always had weight issues. Comfort food has always been coke and potato chips & pizza. What do you advise for 75 yo obese woman who has to work very hard sometimes to just “hang on.”
1. Stop eating sugar, carbs, faux sugars like stevia, any faux sugar.
2. Stop seeing allopathic doctors, they only treat symptoms and their income depends on you staying sick. They used to joke about it, and some still do. Allopathic doctors may be intelligent, but they are not wise.
3. Eat grass fed grass finished beef, elk, bison. Eat fat from these animals. Eat sardines, eat eggs. You need fat and cholesterol to build nerve tissue. Meat is the most nutrient dense food available. It's very hard to get nutrients from plants due to your body isn't designed to eat plants, and the anti-nutrients in plants such as oxalates and lectins and other chemicals that plants use to defend themselves from being eaten---they want to survive just like we do.
3. Listen to these RUclips videos: Dr. Chaffee's interview of Sally Norton, Dr. Ken Berry has a weekly RUclips Q&A which is very informative regarding what I have said above.
4. Realize that you have been the unwitting victim of the infamous food pyramid that started back in 1980 that made people fear fat, meat, and cholesterol and that has sickened the majority of the U.S. population and made us the fattest population on the world. Look at old videos of earlier times say the 1920s and the world war II era and you will see that 95% of people were thin, even into the 1970s.
5. Get and read Nina Taicholtz's book "The Big Fat Surprise", and watch the RUclips video of her giving a presentation to the CATO Institute.
Start with Intermittent fasting, full body detox (like Well of Life brand detox protocols over 2-3 months), greatly reduce carbs and sugars but no need for everyone to go very strict - just start reducing knowing the less you spike insuline the better and then start getting healthier supplementation on key things like Vit D, K2, magnesium, B vitamins, maybe iodine drops or tabs if you first study how to take them safely, zinc, MCT oil quercetin. Before all this, baby steps as simple as starting with simple apple cider vinegar (1/2 tsp working up to tablespoon in a few weeks) in half cup water once to three times a day does wonders to prep you for the other pieces mentioned. A natural doctor or good nutritionist can guide you.
Learn to play the harp!
Ahhh...you need a goof friend and a Healthcare to help. A friend to hear you. Study grounding get out side in nature, practice focusing in what you are thankful for this shifts your frequency or vibration. Drink good spring water from a spring. Get as much of ur skin exposed to direct sunlight daily as it shine. Replace seed oils with olive oil, anaconda oil and coconut and butter. Get the book "Jesus Calling" by Sarah Young. Read a daily. You will get better. 😊
My AI phone changed my words...a health coach too.
Thank you for your help. I wear hearing aids, but still can’t hear well because of tinnitus. What could I do to get rid of tinnitus?
I sympathise. But there are some RUclips podcasts that may help if you search. Good luck 😊
My brother was helped with exercise daily. Strength and walking and also more fiber diet and added quinoa. Had a visit with a functional medical diet. 30:02
I too had tinnitus
What to do with it?
@@perlitaramos9850
Learn acupressure … it helps
😅
I have been on bioidentical hormone treatments for some years and I still have been recently diagnosed with Alzheimers.
There are other triggers for Alzheimer's . Get Dr.Dale Bredesens book the End of Alzheimers
Whole Foods, plant based diet without any processed foods, no sugar, low salt and avoid oils and fats except essential omega 3 etc. Two neurologists, The Bran Docs have done research with Loma Lind found avoiding sugar, processed foods, saturated fats, eat plenty of vegetables, whole grains, you need to increase oxygen levels with greens etc. The reason keto is working is the elimination of refined carbs, weight loss, exercise, meditation etc. These could be confounding variables.
I seem to go through phases where my memory is sharp and then not so sharp. Fortunately I’m sharp most of the time. I can’t figure out what the variable is so I’ve concluded it’s something about hormones - and as a guy I think it’s testosterone specifically. But I’ll have to work on my oral hygiene better - was not aware of that.
A highly stressed lifestyle (with minimal exercise) consuming a high carbohydrate diet packed full of processed foods laced with hydrogenated fats / sugar is key to becoming mentally successful ,,,
What about late stage dementia? I have severe systemic candidiasis and my brain has shrunk severely if I go back to treating it can I unshrink my brain?
Wasn't there also a nun study where their autopsy showed no correlation between dementia and amyloid?
Amyloid plaque is a protective reaction.
Ya it seems not to be the cause. The drugs they have reduce the plaques but don’t help the Alzheimers symptoms.
Where is this functional medicine facility? And how can someone get into your trials?
There is a growing list of centers who are pursuing this approach to neurocognitive decline and, more generally, neurodegenerative illnesses. Off the top of my head, one in Wichita, KS, George Washington University, Booth Bay, Maine, and many hear in the Northeast. (Obviously also, northern CA where Drs. Bredesen, Koup, Hathway live. Deborah Gordon is in Ashland, OR. There is also alot going on in Austin, TX but many places really. Even Columbus, OH, Richmond, VA, others ) One easy way is to look up the Bredesen and Toups published papers and find all the authors' professional affiliations. I believe there is also a network of medical centers now. You might try in your fave search engine searching: "bredesen protocol medical centers"
What is the name of the antimicrobial toothpaste ?
Have the study folks used natural adaptogens to let the body rebalance the hormones ? Like the right mushrooms, ashwagandha, etc?
Botanicals don't "balance hormones" so much as they increase the "receptor density," so you get more activity with lower levels of hormones. Obviously, this is simplistic and there are other mechanisms. But that's the principal one for things like ginseng, ashwagandha, maca, even astragalus!
I’m 79 I’m doing pretty darn good I’m active , I eat clean. I’m starting to have memory problems, not to bad yet. What hormones can I take ..my 3 three younger sisters have all had breast cancer. I eat cleaner then they do, I breast fed my 2 babies they did not. I took hormone therapy into my early 50s. They did not. I would love to go on hormones again what hormones at this age can I help me.
What is a ketogenic diet
Very low in carbohydrates, high in fats and moderate in protein.
What brand of sulfurophane does she use?
Let morning sunshine at least 10-30 min to our back to the skull, if front, cover eyes face with cap, walk stretching
Mobility flexibilities.
If not mobile, sit wc or chair helping brains.
Yes I believe thank you 🙏
Just like people with good immunity from diet & exercise were ok when COVID hit
Nothing like a good healthy body & brain 🧠
Thank you for sharing please don’t stop ❤🙏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have a reverse dementia! 🤗
What do you mean you have a reverse dementia?
@@jamalghorbandi6785 she had it and it was reversed ( went away) . The how would be nice to know?
That is fantastic!!!
Could you please share your experience?
I am currently taking care of my mother in law with Dementia and it's horrible.
Of the the videos on Alzheimer’s this is the best in my opinion because this doctor doesn’t speak a la Cantiflas. 🧐
Let's do an interview too
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful and soul-touching video. In this regard, I also suggest that viewers can search for Molemen Herbs on RUclips, they have different natural remedies to help heal and reverse several deadly health conditions.
I hate the boredom of retirement. My job was exciting and challenging. I no longer have meaning, value or purpose.
@gybx, surely you can find something else to do.
Easier said than done. Join clubs? Not always if there's a charge you can't afford. Go walking in the UK in winter when the rain never stops? It's bad enough in summer. Bake...who for? Plus, starchy stuff is unhealthy. Buses in big cities may run quite often, not in rural or small towns. Fares are high. Go to church as I do: Get involved? Not all churches have things going on. Take up crochet? I did to send stuff to needy people abroad. Damaged my arm through over use 😟 Gardening? Mine is under water as I write. Just had the lawn extended as gardening is too labour intensive as much as I loved it. I live opposite fields and the seeds from flowers and trees love to grow as weeds in my garden. Try weeding boggy ground. Seriously, things are easier said than done for some people. I never stopped. Slept 6 hrs, was busy all day housework, gardening in the summer weather permitting, doing crafts, visiting mum at home in deep in dementia, involved in church activities, out with friends, then covid came and for the last two years, long covid. Everything stopped. I've been told to rest and rest more. Can't read v. well as my eyes have deteriorated and concentration isn't good. Absolutely shattered and warned not to push myself. Not driving as when the fatigue comes over me, I'm not safe. Dropped everything at church as the fatigue has made me too unreliable. Cant use my exercise equipment as I've been warned about doing too much.Noises in my head. Concentration is almost non-existent. Mum in a dementia home and because of the mentioned fatigue, as I said, I'm not safe to drive to see her tho I do once a week. At 73 yrs it's terrifying to think that someone as active as I was may never recover my full faculties. Alternative medicines are expensive. There is going to be a massive epidemic of dementia. It's easy to make suggestions and it's well meaning I know but it's not always that simple. As I learned from mum's condition, in the U.K. there's not enough practical help and people don't have the money to buy loads of supplements if they're available. I know it's a rant, sorry but things are easier said than done.

It’s okay to rant,
We all need to talk to someone….God Bless you ❤
I pray your talking has given you some relief..
