I'd seen a video of an elderly man in a nursing home who just sat, head down to his chest, and waited if you know what I mean. He had no life in him; no interest, didn't talk. His daughter remembered how much music meant to him, her Dad would sing all the time and dance around the house. She decided to bring him earplugs and a playlist of the big band music he loved. She filmed it and put it on YT. He instantly lifted his head and his eyes got bright, then he started to sing along with the music and tap his toes to it, very animated. He became very cognitive, holding conversations with his daughter about the music, he remembered the bands, who the singers were, who wrote the tune, etc. The Director of the Nursing home took notice and was intrigued with the result. He decided to try it on other patients, with varying results, one woman was given music from her era; '50s/'60s, and she too came to life. I don't remember if the gentleman was suffering from dementia or not, but, I thought I'd share this with all of you. Energy, frequency, and vibration play a bigger role than we realize, IMO. Each organ has its own frequency, I wonder if there is any work being done on this kind of research.
There was a documentary about this- cannot remember the name… Alive Inside, I believe?
That elderly man lost interest in life probably because his daughter put him in a nursing home and sold his house in order to do so...too many stories like that...
I remember that!
I have seen people decline after medical treatment
I know its anecdotal, but this think the area deserves more study
Thank you for speaking out
Yes, my grandmother's dementia made itself known after blood cancer treatments and my mother's dementia became evident after a flu shot. Anecdotal evidence can alert researchers to very important trends and discoveries.
In many countries ( but the US), general anesthesia lasting longer than 3 hours qualifies a patient for a disability status
@@AlexM-jd2roWhich countries offer disability status for operations that take over 3 hours?
Families of older folks could have attested to this long ago. My mom underwent heart surgery plus had a bad flu with hospital treatment then a broken hip. Each time under anesthesia, especially, took away cognitive function. There's improvement fortunately, in anesthesia these days, but still, age and other conditions must be given more weight when considering any procedure. My heart surgeon refused to even listen to my autoimmune and genetic condition concerns. Specialists seem to think their body part of choice stands alone. In truth, EVERY procedure affects the whole body and brain. There's been evidence of this for a long time.
You are so right. I've had two procedures done under anesthesia and the other one was mild anesthesia and both times I stopped breathing during the procedure. That couldn't have been good for my brain.
Anesthesiologists refer to anesthesia as "controlled death" for good reason. I've had 2 major surgeries and also my wisdom teeth removed under anesthesia and not only did I get very sick from it twice (not the third time) but my vision was greatly damaged from the third surgery in 2012. That is telling.
Same here, vision decline, short term memory loss, after an elective procedure under general anesthesia....that is what we need to talk about...and not about HGH from cadavers...
My grandmother was fine before knee replacement surgery. As soon as she came out of surgery she changed. She started retelling stories related to the knee surgery over and over and over like a loop. She lost her short-term memory within the next few months. She was in her late 80's when she had surgery. I think the anesthesia may have precipitated her alzheimers. She was probably headed for it anyway but it may have sped up the process.
I agree. I think surgery later in life could bring on dementia in some people. I have known of people who have been affected after their surgery
This absolutely happens.
This happened to someone we knew. We were under the impression that it’s a risk of anesthesia especially in the elderly.
The same happened to my mother!
@@jennyruiz1952 I'm so sorry.
I was a CNA in nursing homes for six years and when I started I was told that people that get hip replacement surgery never/rarely come back the same. Meaning that they usually end up with some form of cognitive impairment. I wonder if this could be what’s happening to them?
My husband died late last year from Alzheimer's. He was a sportsman and
Physical Education teacher. He was extremely sociable and outgoing. Following a hip rep!pavement (when he received an overdose of morphine) he became delirious and his behaviour never recovered. He then had two further ops and deteriorated further which resulted in a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. I have always believed that this was due to the anaesthesia.
Separately, I am curious about this new research, since I recall that CJD also became known as "Mad Cow Disease" due to being also acquired from eating contaminated meat. This was a massive story in the UK in the 1980s.
@michelleholt9818 Jabbed folks are also getting CJD now.
I would like to see more reports like this included in your videos.
I believe anesthesia can trigger it. My mom had surgery and it began to excel my mom's dementia at a rapid pace afterwards
Probably general injury can cause it, at older age.
Same,relative totally changed after anesthesia. Do doctors know why? Do doctors even notice?
An acquaintance just fainted twice and had a doctors appointment. He had an oout of town emergency and won't be back for a week, but go get a blood test. This seems like negligence on his part by not referring acquaintance to another doctor. Don't they take their patients seriously.?
Look what the UK doctors did to those children, injected cadaver human growth that was tainted. Do they have class actions law suits in the UK for their family, siblings or children? Tragic
Hi there, my mom has had Alzheimer’s for 10 years now and it began after extensive Oral surgery which caused a stroke. I so appreciate all the support you give us here ! ❤️❤️❤️
did she have a vaccine? protein sequence they were swabbing us for starting in 2020 - is in ALL brains of deceased Alzheimer's brains. I was analyzing this as a chemist in the 1990s - we could NOT figure out mechanism that would allow these to assemble naturally in the human brain... NOTE PROTEINs she is talking about. I studied this in the 1990s.. Vacccines.
Check out Hal Cranmer interviews.
This freaks me out because I know someone who works in a hospital and cleans the surgical equipment, and she says they are NOT cleaned adequately and lot of the time.
My husband went into post surgery delirium after his back surgery. Now he is having some cognitive decline. He is still doing well but it is very concerning hearing about this study.
My mother is going through this now.
Do you suspect they gave him something from a cadaver?
Are you saying some who were treated with human growth hormone back in the 70’s may have been contaminated. My daughter had growth hormone from the Hershey Medical Center back then. We were contacted abt that disease, creutzfeld Jakob. She has other problems since birth, but she is now 51 and mentally regressing. Memory and mental functioning. So this is extremely interesting to me. By the way, my husband just died of alzeimers in sept.
I recently read that most people over 55 already have amyloid plaque in the brain but do not have cognitive impairment. So according to this we all, seniors, have plaque occurring. This article also stated that plaque may not be the big problem. Rather it is a protein that is being removed from the brain resulting in cognitive problems, and that people with normal levels of this protein do not show impairment, low levels are present with impairment. The suggestion is that therapy should focus on restoring normal levels of this protein, not trying to get rid of plaque. Thank you
Which protein?
I have also heard this supposition. They have theorized that maybe the amyloid plaque is being laid down in response to the alzheimers but not the cause. I think they studied some brains of nuns that had the amyloid but did not have signs of AD.
If you read the Nun study that covered studying this group of women in a a convent and looking at cognitive function from first entering the convent, middle age and old age. You can find it many places. Most recently I read it in the National Library of Medicine. So, they found that at death some Nuns who displayed severe symptoms of dementia had little amyloid plague in their brains and other Sisters who had good brain function actually had a lot of amyloid plague in their brain. I believe that was the impetus to delve more deeply into other causes and looking at more brains of Alzheimer patients to see the actual changes that had taken place. I imagine, like most illness, there is more than one cause. We already know about the gene expression. It's an ongoing race to find prevention and cure. I have AD in my family and my mother was diagnosed fairly early. It is something that does worry me constantly, now that I am 3 years older than she was at diagnosis.
Try this: Columbia University Irving Medical Center "Alzheimer's: new study supports amyloid hypothesis but suggests alternative treatment" March 31, 2023, that's the best I have. Good luck.@@RevCeleste
what protein
This is mind blowing to me because my father was fine not showing any signs of cognitive impairment then he got pneumonia spent a long time in hospital and developed delirium and never cognitively recovered which ended in a combined dementia/alzheimers diagnosis. This just might explain something that has always bothered me about the development of the illness in my father.
Yes, please! Please be the Careblazer who brings new Medical information to Humanity!
I thought you would discuss the role of anesthesia in bring on dementia. This new information is much appreciated.
Yes yes! Glad you brought that up! ANESTHESIA!!
You can’t imagine how much of a blessing you are to me right now. I’m so grateful for the information. Thank You 🌸
I just wanted to thank you Dr Natali , you have saved me with all your information and awesome videos. I have just had to put my wife in a facility and I wouldn't have survived without you and the Alzheimer Society of Windsor-Essex county. People are so uneducated about Dementia and your efforts are noticed by myself and other caregivers.
I have always thought that my mother's dementia was brought on by medications - when I took over her care, I discovered that she was taking 5 medications that all had a side effect of "memory loss" and her doctor didn't notice or think it was important. She always had a healthy lifestyle, active, social, a good diet - in line with all the suggestions for preventing dementia. Yet she developed it (she died a few months ago).
I'm so sorry to hear this! Yes, certain medications can absolutely create even worse thinking.
Can I ask, what she was taking those medications for. I guess risk assessment is important. Maybe she could have lived a fairly good life without those medications.
My grandfather was given medications in the hospital that caused him problems, I wish I knew now what they were... He called me complaining he was being held prisoner in the hospital, and they wouldn't let him out. I had family meet me at hospital to find out what was going on, and he had suddenly lost his mind. Turned out to medications together with his brain chemistry came together to cause the problem. Docs claimed it was a one-off, but years later, while on pain meds, I started showing signs of dementia. I was much younger than grandpa had been, and fortunately, I have recovered a lot of my short-term memory, but I will never be the same as I was before that time...
Sure glad I saw this
This is why older people should see Geriatrician''s. Doctors who specialize in people who are aging. It is a specialty that is very much needed. My father refused to change Dr.s until he had to go to a nursing home for his issues. His Dr. gave him or continued him on prescriptions that were not beneficial to his health. An older person may still benefit from a certain medicine, but the dosage needs to be titrated for their age. Often older people have side effects from some meds or combinations of meds that younger people don't have. I just turned 66 and am looking for a Geriatrician, even though I do like the Dr. I've had for 20 years. If we are caregivers or at least privy to our parents symptoms and the medications they take, we should encourage them to talk to their Dr.s or encourage them to find a Geriatrician. They can always have one meeting with the new Dr. to see if they feel it might be a good move and they feel good about the person. It can mean their health! I'd always choose better health over continuing to see a practitioner I'm comfortable with. There's a reason we have specialists!
Yes, 💯% I would like to see videos like this as well. This video is an eye opener. Lots of things in the past 4 years have been an eye opener.
Another interesting avenue is the research going on with a ketogenic diet!
Absolutely value this type of information - and guest experts in clinical and research priceless! Want to be fully informed. Anything on prevention greatly appreciated as well. Once you see it in a loved one you want to make sure this never happens to you. Thx for all you do. 💜
Preventing or reversal is a keto or carnivore diet. Not so complicated!
Yes! Once you lose your loved one with dementia, the focus shifts to yourself. How do I avoid this? How do I understand this better? How to rid the world of this disease?
I LOVED your video. Please educate me more ❤
YES, please, more info like this. Thank your for making the article accessible to us.
I'm guessing it will just be covered up, but there should be an in-depth study on dementia and Alzheimer's and how it relates to the J@b. I have seen so many people deteriorate mentally after it, and after boosters in particular, I have heard others mention this phenomenon also.
Please keep giving us information. You are so good at what you do. Thank you
She is terrific, and very informative.
Absolutely want updates on current Alzheimer’s research! TY.
My husband developed cognitive decline after his first major surgery at seventy years old. Then it went into high gear with his first hip replacement and full swing after his second hip was replaced. I think he is allergic to the titanium metal in his hips. Metal is not good for the brain! I wish we had checked for metal allergies before hip surgery!
Thank you for the great videos, please keep them coming. We need all the supportive information we can get.
Yes, please, keep adding the latest on research. I learn by reading folk's comments , as well.
I’m looking at the hormones balanced levels when eating one meal a day ,in one hour, no more,with carbs to limit insulin release. Other meals no more than 4carbs and only fifteen minutes.
I did see a report about this. Thank you for bringing it to this channel and explaining it better. You’re always helpful to those of us who are caregivers, as well as to the patients themselves and to their loved ones.
I would like to know if the rise in statins and the sudden rise in Alzheimer's disease is related. Since the brain uses 25% of the body's cholesterol and statins lower cholesterol, what doesn't this do to brain function?
Your summary and presentation is helpful to understanding Alzheimers and dementia. Thank. Do more!
Yes! New information on causes and ways to prevent dementia are of great interest to me. Thank you!💗
I would definitely like to research. Also, I am not at all surprised. Modern medicine tinkers with the body so much, without understanding all the consequences.
Absolutely Dr. Natalie we need more content like this!!! I know many people that have some sort of cognitive decline after surgerical procedures and I highly suspect anethesia. I also think there must be more links in the long term use of certain prescriptions especially pain killers. ❤ from KS
Not surprised. What about long term benzo use and protracted withdrawl?
Kreutzfelt-Jakob disease is often caused by eating contaminated meat and is often talked about in conjunction with Mad Cow Disease. I know this because one of my best friends ate contaminated cow meat at a London restaurant on one of her world theatre-going trips. We danced, sang and perormed in many musical stage plays in our 20's and she choreographed and taught classic and modern dance professionally until her sudden nightmarish illness took that beautiful talented kind-hearted lady from us all. To her friends, her family explained it as Mad Cow Disease but her diagnosis was the former. I'm not sure why you kind of gloss over the fact that eating contiminated meat can all three of these diagnosis, but I do request you explain why you didn't. The thing in USA about anyone "defaming" meat here is that Texas ranchers literally sued Oprah Winfrey for talking about being scared meat during that Mad Cow Disease epidemic. After that, no one dared talk bad about their meat product for fear they'd be sued. Just saying, researchers were worried about being, too. So not surprised they didn't mention Mad Cow Disease in explaining KJ disease linked to this new information about dementia. But as I said, I KNOW those who are old enough to remember that KJ and Mad Cow are always spoken about in the same sentence to make sure of the differences and diagnoses. But the bad meat origin is still about BAD MEAT OR BRAIN TISSUE... and hearing BAD MEAT OR BRAIN TISSUE may also be connected to DEMENTIA... is nothing that needs to be hidden in a footnote at all. Please explain why I should or shouldn't me asking these questions in the case of DEMENTIA?
Yes, I'd love to see more videos like this one. It helps us know what questions to ask to prevent this type of thing from happening. Love your videos. Thank you.
I love the new research! Thanks for all you do for us! 😘
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing
I absolutely would love any more new things that come out re dementia. Thank you
Yes!! I want more videos like this one and thank you so much for all of the free information you have given us so far, You and Teepa Snow have been amazing help on our dementia journey
By the way, you are totally the best Podcaster on this subject! My husband just died a few months ago, but he was a breeze to take care of, almost no negative behaviors. I am sure the alzheimers diagnosis was correct, but he was a bit different than most. I have wondered why, does it affect different parts of the brain randomly?
Appreciate all the informative videos you can provide us. You are such a blessing.
Yes, more of this information is appreciated. Thank you for all your care, resources and presentations to help us take on this big subject. ❤
Yes, Dr. Natali!! We want MORE videos with this kind of information! This was excellent!!! ❤❤❤
I agree with you Milly- Connie
Yes, please keep us up to date on research. I appreciate your explaining the results in layperson terms!
Absolutely! I so appreciate this information is very valuable to me as a caregiver! Thank you so very much for all you do!
Yes more videos. This is amazing. Thank you Dr. I’m a caregiver and the more I know the more I can support the family and client with dementia/Alzheimers
Love to hear info directly from the Dr
Great presentation!!❤
Yes, I would be interested in more videos like this one. Thanks for sharing! 💯
Dr. Natali, Wow! Thank you for covering this topic. Please make more videos like this. Thank you for the link to the medical study.
Yes 👍🏼 keep us updated on new research.
Very interesting and helpful. Thank you.
I think it would be great if you could occasionally share news like this, not as the main focus of the channel but maybe if there are a few comments about some new development. You have a wonderfully clear way of explaining things without watering it down too much. Thank you as always Dr. Natali 🤍
Yes, this information is important not just for now but how it may impact other members of family. Thank you for keeping us abreast and giving short synopsis.?
Yes more videos like this please. Thank you so much.
Thank you for the information
Thank you for sharing this information.
Side question- what device/s are you using to share your notes? Thank you for sharing. ❤
Great video thanks.
Yes great video. would like to hear from researchers.
This is very interesting! Do you think going under anesthesia can cause it or magnify it?
Yes, I do. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36230916/
I do agree with this - any time of unconsciousness has a detrimental impact.
They say the Duchess of Windsor developed dementia after mher 4th plastic sugery
Midazolam is implicated in dementia.
Wow thanks for sharing
I want all information you can get. Thank you.
Camille
Our son in his mid twenties had a brain tumour twenty-five years ago. It was a very hard one to remove. He survived and wasn't the same as before. We were told then he might have early-onset dementia one day. Several months ago it began showing up in memory and speech.
I remain interested and concerned about the subject of dementia risk of future treatments or surgery. Better to think about sooner than later. Best wishes to all.
Definitely interested in research about Alzheimer’s or other type of dementia
Yes!!! Let’s prevent dementia!
Both my mother and father died with Alzheimer's disease. My mother had a family history but my father did not. One thing both had in common, was statin treatment for cholesterol.
Interesting and well presented. Thank you!
I know there are exceptions, but I find it hard not to hate pharmaceuticals.
What a great channel! I just found you tonight! It’s February 25, 2024…
Sadly and horrifically, my son overdosed exactly 2 months ago today… After being in the hospital and then because it was Christmas having to be sent to a different hospital because there wasn’t a neurologist in the hospital because of it being Christmas we had to go by critical care ambulance as he was intubated two hours and 15 minutes. We followed the car. We were there for days and finally found out his brain was gone. He asked about donating his organs because he had always wanted to do that if it ever became a possibility. so then the organ team was in on his treatment. They had to find recipients for his organs which takes a couple days and on the December 31, 2023 we walked him from his critical care unit down to the operating room at 2 AM. we went into the operating room after getting dressed to do so, and we’re there with him when they extubated, pulled out his breathing tube, and we were there with him until he took his last breath ….😢 wow what a crazy terrible nightmare this week that was in the hospital. I slept in his room every night. It was so incredibly heart wrenching. He’s buried now. His gathering is March 16. I’m exhausted, but I have to start thinking about and getting things ready for the gathering of all his friends and our family. ❤❤ hug your kids. I just can’t believe he’s not here to hug.
Yes, I would like too see more videos about research and studies.
Yes this info is wanted/needed! Thank you.
Very interesting video. I don’t know if you’ve discussed
anticholinergic drugs such as Benadryl and Amitriptyline increases the chances of Alzheimer’s? Twenty years ago I had bad pain from frozen shoulder and my doctor gave me 10mg of amitriptyline and I’ve been on it since then cause it helps anxiety. Now I’m worried I’ve increased my chances so should I find an alternative med?
Thank you
Excelent, yes, I want to hear more!
I’m interested to know why a beta amyloid was included in the growth hormone? Are beta amyloids readily available and used in medical practices? Could they be included in an anesthetic or a vaccine?
what about people who use alcohol? Hubby drank for a few years, everyday, and my grandfather. Both got dementia and I have heard that alcohol can be one of the causes of dementia.
Alcohol abuse l am pretty sure with time cause dementia
See Brain Warriors, Dr Amen. He scans brains using imaging. He often warns against alcohol, pot and drugs.
This could be affecting the whole transplant industry! What about receiving blood products after a surgery or accident?
It does not surprise me. Thank you for sharing this
My wife has advanced dementia.l hope you can help me.Aside from the common constant “I want to go home “talk,she also has the habit of continuous counting sometimes nonstop.l know it’s normal,but is there a way l can do to at least distract her to do something?l am a subscriber and also her full time caretaker.Your response and any advice is greatly appreciated.Keep up all the updates you are doing.
My sister has advanced dementia we have similar problems but I tried to keep her busy with a busy box which for her is a box filled with Ribbons And Lace and all kinds of things that I asked her if she would help me to sort it out and she would sit and roll these things up and sort them into different ones and then tomorrow we just do and she would sit and roll these things up and sort them into different ones and this is the way of keeping her distracted but the hands and mind busy🎉❤😊**
I am her full-time carer, at the best of times she does not know who I am.
she only knows that she needs to see me, to be at ease.😅😢😮❤
The busy box sounds like a great idea. People make twiddle muffs and fiddle blankets with different things like zipped pouches with something in, different textures, ribbon bows to tie and untie, beads on a string to move back & forth etc. I make the blankets but live in the UK. Find a local knitting or sewing group who may be able to help.
Similar to the busy box - asking my grandmother to fold towels (or clothes) was helpful, in keeping her occupied. Towels is how the hospital kept her from continuously getting out of bed.
Yes, more info please❤. Also could procedures cause Parkinson’s?
I would say YES without doubt.
Great topic - Please watch the levels on your recording equipment. Your voice is "clipping" overloading your recorder and distorting terribly. Turn down the gain and/or use a limiter and compression when you record. Louder isn't better - RUclips normalizes volume when you upload anyway. Thanks
Scary. Could you make a video about how medications could influence the onset of dementia/Alzheimer’s? The American library of medicine states that long term tramadol use results in being 3x more likely to develop Alzheimer’s (feel free to look that up). Also many scientists claim that long term antihistamine use can result in early onset dementia (again feel free to research that as well). My wife has been prescribed both. Since she has had MS over 25 years, she already has brain lesions, brain volume loss, and cognitive challenges. When I mentioned my concerns about Tramadol (a man made opiate), to her neurologist, she said that she has considered the risk/benefit of her medications. My wife’s chemically dependent now, so she certainly doesn’t want to quit taking them. Who do I talk to when I fear my wife’s medications are harmful? Since she cannot physically open the bottles, I feel ethically conflicted about dispensing them to her. Once tapered off, they are not medically necessary in my humble opinion. Thank you if you have read this far - loving husband and caregiver.
This is good info. A question - are there any studies or any experts that can be brought in to speak to the High Fructose Corn Syrup connection and timing replacing sugar and have those dots been connected to study? My fear is that the money trail that ignored tobacco caused cancer may also be hiding the connection between something were eating and dementia. Check your labels at the grocery store and see how often this developed chemical is in food replacing sugar and who doesn't like sweet things?
I check labels and won’t buy anything with this toxin in it.
If you watch the movie The Price of Corn, you learn at the very least, nitric acid (very carcinogenic) is used to break down dent corn for corn syrup
All I know is, when I went carnivore for four months, because I was having severe histamine issues, which, meant I cut out corn, corn-derivatives, HFCS - I started having emotional and physical sensations I had never, ever felt, prior.
I am on the autism spectrum, as well as ADHD and numerous stress disorders.
I didn’t have much emotional range, beyond happiness, frustration, rage, indifference.
Most of the way I could relate to people was cognitively, not emotionally.
I cut out the vast majority of the aforementioned corn, nearly two years ago.
Within the first month, I began to feel more emotions - like, sadness.
Though, more than that - I was able to easily identify the emotions I was feeling, which, was something I always had great difficulty with.
Physical sensations I had never experienced prior, also, came on line.
I won’t get too much into the details, though, sexual satisfaction was heightened, and no longer very blunted - as well as it seems like sensitive vs. non-sensitive areas balanced out, a bit more.
I can say, now, I know what the emotion of love feels like.
I can understand why people have placed such values on their emotions.
I have devoted much more emotional empathy.
I have the ability to express emotions, without feeling nauseous.
I mean, the list goes on, with how much things have shifted cognitively/emotionally, ever since cutting out corn/corn-derivatives.
Oh, also!
Knee and ankle pain I have had, since I was about 6.
Which, I was even walking with a cane, when I went carnivore.
No more cane.
No more knee and ankle pain (makes sense why whiskey would make me hurt, so bad).
However, anytime I eat corn - it’s, undeniably, returned.
Yes I'd like to see more videos like this.
The premise is interesting. My mother was diagnosed with Alzheimer's at 65 and died from it. ie when she couldn't swallow any more she had said she didn't want IV feedings. My father had a different kind of dementia where it was unclear the cause.I was the only sibling who lived near them so was the primary caregiver/POA etc. I'm STRONGLY motivated to find various causes so I can avoid them at all costs. That being said, a study of 8 people in no way constitutes a strong robust study that will give us reliable results/statistics. There are set procedures for reliable and meaningful studies. I completely support studies from more holistic scientists and researchers, but their studies still have to follow standard procedures for reliable results. We also call C-F Disease Also, if I may help? The "y" in amyloid is pronounced as if it was an "I" it's not pronounced like the Y sound in "you". am-uh-loid. "Creutzfeldt" (you forgot the "D" in your visuals) is a German name and the first syllable vowel combination ( eu) is pronounced differently than English. It is KROITS-felt YAH-kobe , as shown on the Mayo Clinic website. Used to call it "mad cow" disease in the 1990, when some people in England developed a variant from eating diseased cattle. It states that most cases of CJD are not cause from eating beef. I'll keep coming back to this channel to see new research! Thank you.
Thank you for your clear explanation of this. My father who was a genius, developed dementia after several strokes, and died 1 month prior to his 89th birthday. He came to the US from Europe as a teenager, and had to quit school and go to work. On his own, he learned to speak 9 languages fluently, could add tons of numbers in his head and come up with the right answers, etc. My sister another genius, got her masters degree from Vanderbilt University on a total scholarship, taught the gifted for years, died at 82 of Alzheimer's, a month before her 83rd birthday. I had a 4.0 grade point in grad school, and I fear this happening to me because of the family history.
You might want to view Dr. Berg on RUclips talk about fasting and how the body then deals with mis-folder protein. The videos may put your mind at ease. 😊
Great video :)
It's concerning that you don't acknowledge the emerging data on the metabolic origins of Alzheimers (of which plaque may be a byproduct rather than a cause). Also, my understanding is that genetics does NOT automatically predetermine Alzheimers and that epigenetics (lifestyle/environment) is a significant factor in risk.
This stuff is kind of scary important. But I have yet to learn what your education is that knows how to interpret these research results. Also… they only had 8 patients to study. This is too small to really indicate anything. It’s enough to make it worth looking at much closer! Thanks
This is soooo darn interesting.
The Tetanus Shot also causes it. I believe they also combine it with something else.
I got one in the late 1990's . Got the syptoms of CFS. Started having memory issues. Words dropping off mid sentence. Anywhere from 15 minutes to several hours later, the word would suddenly come out of my mouth!
With a lot of diet changes and Vitamin C and herbs, most of the CFS symptoms went away. Not that I was trying to treat CFS on my own but just trying not to get sick.
So, in the early 2020's got another Tetanus Shot. BOOM! The CFS symptoms hit me again! And my memory got worse.
Went back to the regime that had helped before.
I stumbled into something that helped my memory, however, after my 2nd bout of COVID, it has gotten worse. I thought I was going to die last year..long haul Covid.
Found something, finally to help with the long haul symptoms. And I think, it might also help with the memory issues but over a longer period of time.
I will see!
What did you stumble upon that is helping now ?
@@cleanslate5313 Well, cinnamon crosses the blood brain barrier and prior to covid, I would take about 1/4 to 1/3 teaspoon in a hot cup of coffee and I notived that for about a week afterwards, sometimes longer, it would help my memory.
With the long covid, I had to add Turmeric, which helps clean out junk from your arteries...including cholesterol.
Yes, please, more videos like this.
Yes, it would be great to learn more and follow where all this is going including updates on new treatments and studies. Aren't hospitals/medical facilities supposed to be already using sterilized equipment and areas. When you say it was contaminated, do you mean the person/donor had a predisposition to Alzheimers?
What about taking a statin? Can a side effect lead to dementia? Thx for all this info.
I noticed that I forgot bits of memory after after anesthesia. What's the alternative? Propofol did not affect me, just general.
