I love any Bruce Willis movie 🙏🏾
Yes I am, I've been a Bruce Willis fan for ever, yippee ki-yay Mther Fcker.
😬 I hate talking about this cause it's scary. It turns you into a shell of your former self. I feel sorry for the family having to take care of him every minute. God speed for Bruce Willis to end this.😞
How would hyperbaric oxygen therapy help with Dementia or Alzheimer's?
I bought your Ultimate Bloodwork Course and I love it!
Lost my dad to Alzheimer’s at 69.
Awful way to go.
I avoid carbs and sugar.
Lift weights and hike.
I’m not going out that way.
Miss you dad.
RIP 🙏🏾
I lost my mom to Alzheimer's at 68 years old. She had it for 6 years before she died. I am also on Keto now, and I exercise. I want to avoid it.
I also lost my mum to Alzheimer’s, have stopped all sugar and eat very little carbs
Intermittent fasting help tremendously and very effective to cure most illnesses. It's easy simple and costless.
Too all those commenting here, please investigate Pernicious Anemia. It is insidious. It is very often undiagnosed because they don't look for it.
I'm 39, and a few months ago, I had a few stressful weeks followed by a very stressful interaction with a manager at work. After this I could immediately tell my memory was shot, my speech slowed down, I couldn't find the words, and I forgot the names of people I've known for many years that I had just talked to. I did research, and it all pointed to FTD, so I went to go get an MRI, and nothing showed up, so the Dr just dismissed me and only offered sleeping pills. I didn't take them but have learned to ignore the problems at work. I still need to work on why I can't fall back asleep. However, a recent video by Dr. Ekberg mentioned the benefits of apple cider vinegar before going to sleep. It's only been three nights so far, but I'm already getting way better sleep and am able to fall back asleep if I wake up in the middle of the night. I will continue to do so and report back if it has continued to work. In general, my brain is in slightly better shape now, but it was scary, and I'd like to fully recover. Thank you Dr. Ekberg. You have been a blessing.
Ask yourdelf if you introduced some mRNA into your body when all your stress got more intense and your responses got weak with memory loss....
Thank you @salvadorgonzalez4642. You're doing the right thing to keep working at it. The stress at work was the trigger, not the cause. Most of us have chronic stress that unbalances the brain to some degree. We would all do well to practice mindfulness, and relaxation exercises on a regular basis. 😄
I had a stressful relationship. It triggered my brain memory as well. What did I learn? Get away from people who you know are bad for you. Set boundaries. Speak up for yourself. However, the best advise is GET OUT OF THAT SNAKE-PIT.
@@dardar1434 taking responsibility for my body, mind & soul.
Letting go & letting God!
Happened to me a couple of years ago too, think it was related to the stress of working too much.
I was very glad to see your video! About 20 years ago, family members were trying to convince my grams she was slipping in mental deterioration. Which, if you think about it, was incredibly cruel as grams had taken care of her Alzheimer's afflicted mother until her passing. I stopped all that by sending grams to 2 places, the library and the YMCA. She now reads at least 1 book a week and takes the Ys free Silver Sneaker program. She is slowing down a little but just had her 90th bday fully cognitive!
Your grams is very lucky to have you ❤️
Enjoy every minute grams
I'm so happy for her improvement!
You are a wonderful grandson! Best wishes for dear Grams!❤
You are such a great grand daughter :)
My late father passed away last year from vascular dementia.
It's an absolutely devastating way to die and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy if I had one. Until his diagnosis he was a very vital person in our life owning his own building business for some 40 odd years. In the early 80s my mum walked away from the marriage. It was my dad that took up the role of both mum,dad.
He is unfortunately no longer with up but he is dearly missed.
And there will never be anyone like him💗
What a wonderful father it sounds like you had. I know your heart misses him everyday. I miss my dad too.
So sorry to hear this and I can relate to you as my mum has vascular dementia and has deteriorated so much in the last 6 months. She was diagnosed 3 years ago. We dread losing her 😢she will be 79 this June and was such a vibrant and active woman before this hit her. Thank you for sharing about your dad.
@@lisas2538 ❤blessings to you!x
🙏🙏🙏
It is such an awful, undignified way to leave this world! I'm glad you had such a wonderful father! ❤
Just gold - thank you.
An ex-Olympic athlete “metamorphised” into a holistic doctor, providing life saving advice. What a human being.
a real health champion!
Metamorphosis…or, simply, education, learning. Not listening to Dr. Ekberg will make you sica .
A Former-Olympic athlete...
But yes, I agree with you!
Dr. Ekberg staves off dementia by writing mirror image lettering on the glass screen in his video
Using the term Doctor very loosely. So loosely that I think you are a fraud. A holistic doctor is not a real profession. It is a self-important title to a man who hasn't updated his knowledge in over 20 years.
RUclips grows them proud. Personally I would have too much shame to just crown myself a doctor. But I guess shame is a characteristics you lack.
PREVENT or hopefully reverse Dementia before it's too late
1. Change lifestyle before symptons
2. cut sugar, cut insulin resistance, avoid carbs
3. Follow Keto, Intermittent fasting
4. 75% natural fat (grass fed meat, butter, nuts, fish , cheese), 5% carbs, no sugar
Avoid processed plant oils. Eat EVOO, avocado, coconut oils
5. exercise - walking, high intensity interval training, yoga, weights, pilates
6. hobbies, books, volunteer, join a club
7. Brains stimulation/exercise, learn more than one language
8. BrainTap, meditation
My luck, I do this stuff and walk outside to get mail , and get hit by a truck. R.I.P.
Thank you.
Appreciated!
Koszonom szepen!👍🥰
Thank you 🇬🇧
I wish this Doctor would have been around 30 years ago when I was in nursing school. His way of teaching is engaging and make me eager to learn more. Now I am retired and try to watch all his videos for my own health. Thanks Doc!
Learning is never too late. I am 79 and always welcome videos of Dr. Ekberg and another favorite, Dr. Sam Webster, a wonderfully charming and knowledgeable Anatomy professor. Between the two, I am very mindful of what I eat, how I move about and what I think.
He was
If you have an Anatomy and Physiology book with an athlete on a bicycle on the front that's him.
That's the one we used in nursing school 30 years ago.
He is not a M.D.
That's what makes him BETTER!
@@ornvik481 He is smarter than most MD's
After having memory lapses, I began taking mct oil (coconut oil) and stopped carbs. Your body then is in ketosis. My memory improved greatly, and lost weight. I am 76 and will stay on this diet for life!
Hi cyntha... congratulations..I been using bullet proof brain octane C8 mct oil&ultima electrolyte my clarity is improving
This is one of those channels everyone on the platform should automatically be subscribed to.
Thank you @tylers9962. I really appreciate the comment and have to say I agree completely, but then again I am a little biased. Thanks for watching. 😄
👍🙏
Unfortunately RUclips doesn't promote such channels bcoz BIG PHARMA.
Especially my idiot doctor. BTW you’re fired.
I've spent the last three years rebuilding my brain and nervous system via fasting and no sugar. People who know me are blown away. I'm unrecognizable from three years ago. You are onto something!
did you gradually change? i'm glad it's helping.
@@lapacesiaconvoi yea, very slowly and gradually but last six months have been like neural rhictor scale of improvements.
What kind of fasting did you do?
@@EB321 OMAD going on two years.
How is fasting related to dementia?
Praying for Bruce Wills. I’m brain cancer 17 years survivor and counting. 🙏🙏🙏
He is dearly missed. He was to young to leave this world. A dynamic man.
This is where we realize the invention of the internet is a blessing..to allow angel Drs who actually care about people and not the pharmaceutical greed like Sten to bring us life saving information for free..Many Blessings to you and your family for your kindness..
I was my aunt’s caregiver for over a year, she had Alzheimer’s disease and lived with my husband and I. I saw firsthand how this disease robs you of who you are and it left her in fear everyday. I never really thought about getting Alzheimer’s before because both of my parents died young and didn’t have it but caring for my aunt was a wake up call for me ! Thank you for this video and this priceless information. ❤
My mom had alzheimer and was cheerful until she died at 80 of a heart attack. She only knew me but did recognize my dad's voice but not his face. I took care of my mother in law until she died at 9i. She had dementia and turned from a pleasant woman to mean and combativd.
(((Hugz))) I'm currently caring for a family member with Alzheimer's it's definitely tough.
your aunt is blessed to have you!
Wonderful . Thank you . We need to know this .
My mother started Alzheimer’s at 58 years old. She was a Grace Kelly look-alike, always keeping herself, beautifully dressed & groomed. She became nonverbal in her mid-60s. Devastating!
Merci depuis la France, en keto depuis 6 mois et une energie retrouve. J'ai 69 ans et ma vie devient meilleure grace a vous.
I agree lifestyle is important but I don't think anyone knows enough to speak definitively. My dad walked everyday. He played the trumpet and started learning the drums and to ride a horse. He read voraciously - all kinds of books and he had a huge music collection. He enjoyed wood working. This began after my mother died. He didn't get counselling. I think this trauma turned it on. My husband died suddenly when I was just turning 50. I felt like I was lost. I still worked and couldn't remember anything - people, places, anything. I got counselling and made myself consciously aware of this fight. I made myself consciously aware and thoughtfully fought the loss. I think stress and trauma are huge in this area. I sincerely appreciate your help. I wish more doctors still helped. Grief is what I'm talking about.
So on point Kelly, losing a loved one can really impacts the brain.😮
My father has FTD. He is 73 now, but looking back, there were personality & behavioral changes at least 8-10 yrs before. He is t2 diabetic since his 40’s and he was on statins for many years. I wish I knew about all of this sooner. I feel I could have helped him and the trajectory of his life. Assuming, of course, that he would have listened and made the necessary changes. Dementia is a very cruel disease and is very hard on the caretaker & family members.
You are describing my father, unfortunately he wont try anything I recommend. He insists that because he is type2 diabetic that he HAS to eat 6 or more times per day and have carbs with every meal. He eats sleeves of sugar free cookies and 4 sandwiches every day. Long story short, in the last 5yrs I have given up on trying to change his health because it only caused stress and he seemed to intentionaly get worse whenever I suggested change, to call it frustrating is an understatement. Since watching Dr Berg I have lost 70lbs.
From France, so, sorry for my English. My sister is 74. For cholesterol, she takes statins, against my advice. Five years later, the doctor told her : well, you seem to begin being diabetic... And now, her brain seems to be less efficient...
@@paulinesimon2257 Look at (cardiologist) Dr. Aseem Malhotra's 2022 book: A STATIN FREE LIFE. I believe he's done many videos on RUclips that you might want to look for. That's how I found out about him and his book. I recommend you do a quick search because I no longer have that link.
I’ve experienced both parents that had dementia. My father developed Louis body disease, the same thing that Robin Williams had. My mother developed vascular dementia so sad to say to the closest people in your life. Forget who you are. I wish you all the best stay away from carbohydrates.
@@alkalk8938 If it's possible I highly recommend you take your father to a registered dietitian to give him a lesson on a diabetic diet. I became a dietitian in 1982 and one of the biggest parts of the job was patient education. He may very well believe what they say even if it's exactly what you've been telling him! Unfortunately that's how things go a lot of times 😕
I believe that a lot of insurance companies will pay for a certain number of outpatient meetings per year with a clinical dietitian when the diagnosis is diabetes or kidney disease. Of course you have to check with Medicare and/or his insurance company.
Thank you for your very helpful advice, and suggestions on this topic. I am 79 years old and sloooowly losing it. Mostly with a personality change, loss of motivation, loss of math skills. While I am still able to comprehend, I will start changing my diet or cutting out sugar. I do practice mindfulness meditation. Both my parents started signs of senility in their mid 80's. I hope i am good for another 5 years. I am bilingual. I am trying to learn Spanish as a 3rd language. Thank you again for the help.
I am 39! And I have these symptoms too 🙈 quit my very stressful job, changed my diet, enrolled into university - and it’s slowly coming back to me. Wish you luck in your endeavors, I think with application of effort the results will follow 💪
Don't forget to use intermittent fasting! Eat beginning at eleven ayem, say, and stop eating at five pm, for example. Just make sure to get lots of protein and animal fat and olive, avocado or coconut oils; while you also eat berries, prouts on salad, cooked greens, and fermented foods and mushrooms. Exercise rounds this all out. Also make sure your electrolytes are in balance! And check it all out with a doctor first.
@@glintinggold Thank you for the food suggestions. The right food can be our cure or if we eat the wrong food, it can hurt us. May I ask why are mushrooms important? Thanks.
Learn to learn as many new things as you can in order to regenerate newer neural connections.
Add intermittent fasting 18-6 or 20-4, that would initiate autophagy and protein plaquing in the brain would be eaten off by the body.
@@glintinggold Thank you. Good advice.
Dr.S. Ekberg, Many, Many Thanks. I am 73 years old, 3 years ago my Dr diagnosis me Dementia, I was very sad. Now i am ready to learn more about Dementia. My mom 91 years old the last 12years my oldest brother also suffering the last 6 years. I am trying to educate myself and help my family . Again, thank you.
Bruce is a man who spent his life memorizing scripts and interacting heavily with other people. He seemed relatively healthy actually. The fact that this disease hit him scares the crap out of me.
Maybe his diet wasn't so good? Who knows ... it's all very sad because he was my favorite Actor. 😞
It's related to one's diet.
@@veniqer
Yes True. 94% of all diseases are caused by bad diet. And the other 3% caused by Toxins in our Environment and 3% given to us by Genetics.
Hereditary
It could be his genetics, he may have played football and some suffered some concussions. Any number of factors may have contributed to his particular case. All or any part of that may or may not apply to you.
I have allergies from doctors but for some reason, whenever I listen to Dr. Sten Ekberg, I feel so calm and relaxed.
Now, can we please make 2 copies of Dr. Ekberg, put one in the CDC and the other one in FDA so that we can get rid of big pharma.
👍👍👍
💯 %
I watch several health related channels on youtube but Dr. Ekberg is by far the most informative of them all. Lots of good information, thorough explanations and no hyperbole! Oh, and he doesn't try to sell anything.
Also DR BERG & DR AXE
Berg tries to sell and market all kinds of things! Plus, I don't like supporting Scientology!
Agree.
God bless Dr Berg
@@lindamyers953 Wow, didn't know he supports Scientology? That's a bummer
@@lindamyers953 you are talking about a different doctor - not this one! 😊
I've lost 17 immediate family members to Alzheimers...mother, grandma, great grandma, all my great aunts & great uncles, aunts, uncles, brother, sister, cousins. Improving my odds through diet & lifestyle yet with this family history, is there really hope?? I'm the last of 7 siblings (everyone else died from diabetes & high blood pressure). Only great thing, I am the only one who doesn't have high blood pressure nor diabetic and take zero meds at age 67. Maybe there's hope I can also escape Alzheimers.
You might want to look at the work of Dr. Dale Bredesen on reversing Alzheimers. Diabetes greatly has increases the risk of Alzheimers so it's great that you have dodged that bullet .
Excellent! 🤩Remember to take walks and exercise your body 🥰
What I'm most impressed with is how easily and legibly you can write backwards!
😂 I sure didn’t catch that. Glad you mentioned it. Interesting to see.
I like how he addresses to us as "health champions". Beause of you, we are more informed in taking care of our health.
I’m so impressed by Dr. Ekberg’s knowledge and thankful that he so generously shares his knowledge for free with all of us. He is by far my favorite channel to listen to when it comes to health and healing. Thank you very much Dr. Ekberg for making a profound difference in this world.
I have always been a fan of Bruce Willis I can watch his movies over and over.
Excellent explanation, thank you. My mother has dementia and it progressed a lot in the last couple years. For her stressful events were the trigger, death of her parents, husband, sister, two nephews. She just closed down, severely depressed and lost will to live. I still grieve my father, grandparents, aunt, cousins passing. It takes time.
Hello 👋🏻 Beautiful Lady 🌹
How are you and the weather condition like?
Dr. thanks for all of your video's! You really put your heart into everything that you say. I have learned so much from you that I would not have otherwise learned and to top it off I have lost over 20 pounds since late November because of what I have learned from you!
The most health educational doctor online. Brilliant stuff.👌
Absolutely the best!! I love every minute of this presentation and am so grateful for the clarity around the systems that contribute to brain health and well-being. Incredibly motivating! Thank you! ❤
My goodness - Nobody can teach as well as you. You are simply the best of the best 👍❤️🌹 Thank you for all the knowledge you give us 🙏❤️
Best teacher on the internet!! Thank you, Dr. Ekberg!
It’s so effortless to watch your videos, the narration is on point and I don’t even know when I’ve spent over half an hour completely immersed in such great educational content. I have watched almost all your videos in their entirety and many of them multiple times, that’s how much value you are providing by educating us about how to maintain our health by holistic methods.
Thank you @DenzilPeters. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain the principles and mechanisms of health in such a way that you start gaining an understanding and respect for the miracle that is the human body. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and start owning the mechanisms we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
Agree!!
@@drekbergvery accurate comment! I agree 100%!
Just the best! Thankyou Dr. Ekberg, we are indebted to you for your tireless, selfless dedication to improve health! God Bless you!
I'm 36 and just love watching these videos by Dr Ekberg! I think it's important to keep challenging yourself in your life and make it fun too. I am guilty of overworking and being dull at home. We all have our faults so I will work on that.
Another great video, i have been running my brain on ketones for the month of February and will break fast on March 1, all possible through Dr. Ekberg's extensive video library, thanks!
Just lost my mom to dementia, well actually lost her ten years ago really! Dementia is heartbreaking! Didn't know you were an olympic athlete in a previous life - very impressed!!
Bruce, prayers are incoming for you and your family. You are back. And the world welcomes you. You will tell your story with clarity and truth.
Every video on this channel has the potential of saving lives! Absolutely love this work. Thanks, Doc!
So well explained! Thank you for your dedication to make people lives better .
I am a health professional and I do use your info personally and professionally 🙏🏻
Once again you nailed the topic. Thanks for the efforts you take to educate us
You are welcome @celebratinglifewithmuthu1854. Thank you for watching. 😄
And the Noble prize goes to Dr. Ekberg. Hes amazing!
Eggs, Eggs, Eggs w/yolk soft cooked if cooked, minerals, coconut oil, 🫐 blueberries.
I love this channel. Dr Ekberg is such a great communicator and gives no nonsense advice. I am curious of whether Dr Ekberg recommends/takes himself any kind of supplements regularly. For example: any vitamins (D, B6) or minerals (Zn, Mg...) and other more specific stuff (Resveratrol, tudca, omega 3, NAD...) That would be a great addition to the channel.
Thank you and keep up the great work :)
You are the Die Hard of this subject matter and I see the resemblance to Bruce. Thanks so much Doc!!
One stress buster is quiet simple, just listen to a Dr. Ekberg video. He has such a calming effect ❤😇
Dr Ekberg, thank you for all that you have published on the internet. I am suffering from knee replacement surgery and a sprained ankle that won’t heal. I have packed on 35 lbs. My numbers are off the charts. I’m off sugar, alcohol, carbs. Already I can walk better and sleep better. Additionally, I’m down 10 lbs. Thank you!
One of the most inspirational explanations of HOPE. Thank you Dr Ekberg, I shall come back to this each day, you are a very motivational person ❤
Thanks for this video Dr. Ekberg. I have an Aunt with dementia, and it's very difficult... she's losing her personality, and her sparkling attitude. It's just so sad. Thank you for being so thorough in explaining it. Hope you have an awesome Friday!
Thank you @angelfriend3710. Sorry to hear that. Dementia is a very cruel disease
That's happening to some younger people after taking the recent intervention.
My best friend told me about you and your channel and I am so glad I found this video. I am 69 and my mother had Dementia and I do not want to have that if at all possible. I have done many of the things you have suggested to do what I can do before having symptoms, I eat clean (more Kentogenic), exerice regularly (weight resistance, walk), socialize, I'm a member of a weight loss group I go to once a week, I am involved with Mastermind with two close girlfriends and every day we affirm our requests for personal improvement and goal setting and we meet once a week to discuss the week. I read a lot, play games online and do what I can to be as healthy as I can. Thank you for what you do!!
Such a informative video. My step mom has Alzheimer’s and my dad is her caretaker. They are in early 70s. I’ve always maintained low carb diet and very minimal sugar since I’m a cancer survivor and have hypothyroidism. Now going through menopause. So I avoid sugar as much as possible and processed foods. Exercise and read a lot. And one of my hobbies is to crochet 🧶 I find these things to be very beneficial and helpful to me. Thank you for sharing! This should be the standard work course for everyone.
I'm glad you mentioned lack of joy. I have a lot of hobbies so I am always entertained or amused. I noticed some people don't have many hobbies and get bored easily. They tend to sit or lead a sedentary lifestyle and often watch TV. Some TV shows aren't that great to stimulate the brain. Retirement is not a good idea for these kind of people and they are better off to go out and work. You hear people say I will get bored if I retire. That is because they have few hobbies so to keep working is a good thing for them.
Thank you so much for everything!
Just to add, I believe it to be beneficial to also take up new learning, ie., writing, singing, a musical instrument, arts, painting, drawing, dancing reading books and the sciences including the quantum field.
My mother in her mid eighties is suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's, diabetes, just been admitted to LTC home after breaking her hip. She was diagnosed while in her 50's.
I'm her only son and we don't recognize each other today,
so very sad. But within me I still maintain strong loving, happy memories of my mom and much letting go.
Blessings, peace.
I think your voice too should reach the entire globe,, you have changed my entire meaning of life and this change is for good,, v r so grateful to have you
tks Dr Erkberg, you are one of those very fewer Dr who merely giving medical education to the viewer instead of selling their own products at the end of the video!
Lieber Herr Ekberg, herzlichen Dank für dieses super gut strukturierte und umfassende Video. Tolle Leistung, die vielen Menschen helfen kann. Danke!
Danke Schön @villamagicaTV. 😄
Thank you so much Dr. Ekberg for bringing this subject to light in detail. I received Frontal Lobe Damage in 2016 due to a TBI sustained in a car accident. I overcame a lot in cognitive therapy, et al. but My Executive Functioning is still none existent. I've been following your channel since 2017. Your content has the most comprehensive information for me. It also aligns with my practices and values. I turned 60 this month and I am grateful for your efforts. I know I would be a lot worse off if I did not have a certain lifestyle and follow certain pratices (before and after the accident). I've been recommending your channel for a long time. Please do more on on this subject and keep up the good work.
Perhaps red light therapy would help. My son suffered frontal lobe damage during birth, then childhood vax and autism diagnosis. He's 26 and slowly gaining more language and self regulation, able to follow directions better etc. No known side effects. It's been a tremendous gift. There are many YT videos on what red light can do for the brain specifically.
@@GallieSallie thank you
I too had a TBI (25yrs ago) then had brain surgery.
Keto/carnivore has helped my depression and anxiety. Stay away from carbs and sugar and you’re on the right track!
This man is unbelievably good, explains so well, I like him, also Dr Berg. They truly make the most sense.
I have heard the statement many times that "exercise is good for your brain", but never an explanation as to how or why. This was a wonderful and easily understandable explanation as to the mechanisms by which movement is beneficial to brain cells. Thanks so much for making this video!
Absolutely heartbreaking for Bruce Willis and his family. The disease is wretched for all. Have always love him.
Best wishes for Bruce Willis 😢💔🙏
Great video for me, again. I’m 75 and noticed some confusion and I was able to dig in and cause improvement. I’m so happy I can listen and realize I must help myself, with the outstanding information I Hear. Thanks
What did you change?
fasting!@@sunshinefl6586
Dr. Sten, your methodical and meticulous attention to detail helps me completely comprehend so many health issues. My mother is breathing but completely gone to alzheimers. I quit sugar a year ago but occasionally fall (3×s in 6 months) instead of daily. Next, i quit starches. In January, i went full carnivore, with the odd keto cheat, and have never felt better. My brain is clear, pain is now minimal, and i've lost 55 pounds.
I can't thank you enough for your hard work and clear presentation. K
Thank you for this information! After losing my young son to suicide it took a minimum of two years to rebuild my brain. I am still working on that. It's been seven years now. I need to drop the sugar, for sure. I just got my Master Gardener's certificate three months ago. My body has multiple pain issues and joint degeneration. At 63, I am doing some things for brain health, but you have given me extremely good information to kick it up several notches. Thank you again!
God bless you, dear mother. Praying for you. 🙏
I am so sorry for your unimaginable loss. I only just lost my 24 year old son on February 19 to an extremely severe acute pancreatitis. Less than 2 days in the hospital, and he was gone.
He turned 25 on March 2 💔 My concentration and memory have been nonexistent. I walk around in a brain fog most of the day. It just doesn't seem real.
@@tammybacha9813
Oh no 😢 I'm so deeply sorry for your loss, the worst loss of all. Hugs to you, sweet mama. I won't tell you it gets better, because that won't make any sense right now. Your brain function and your heart will begin to heal when they are ready. 🌹
How's the NO SUGAR going??? Carbs??? I bet your body is feeling better without sugar & carbs!
As a musician for over 50 years, I am always encountering challenges to keep my skills up… There’s always a new song to learn, and different ways to challenge myself on the instruments I play. The comment that I get most often is about my range. Stylistically and vocally I have a lot of interests, and I am confident that this engagement keeps my brain pretty toned up. Doc didn’t specifically mention musical instruments and singing, so there’s my 2 cents. Add in 35 years of martial arts and recent keto and I feel good about my brain’s future!
Thank you so much for this informative video Dr. Ekberg. My father died from Dementia that progressed into Alzheimer’s at age 71. I read everything I can get my hands on about the disease in an attempt to avoid the same fate. Thank you again for this & all of your great content.🙂
New subscriber. Thank you Dr. Elbert. My wife passed in 2022 with FTD. Many of the things you mentioned where factor’s (stress,diet,overworking. To name a few. In my sixties working at a much heather life style,and balance. I eat a healthy balance of foods, exercise, and nearly off of any meds. Thank you for your great insight. You are a Blessing.
Thanks for all your thoughtful intentions, your one of my favorite YT doctors of all time!😊
Fantastic explanations, Dr. Ekberg. I really appreciate how well you break things down to a usable form, and how you always take responsibility to remind people that a lot of the studies people use as "proof" are based on inaccurate assumptions. And of course you always focus on the true causes of disease.
Fantastic
Thank you
Everyone should forward this video to as many people as they can. I already sent it to everyone on my contact list. It’s such important information, how can anyone not share? Thank you Dr Ekberg!!!❤
Thank you @user-nu3lc5my6g. The greatest compliment you can give is to help me help more people by sharing the videos with others.😄
Absolutely!!!
One of the best medical knowledge videos I've seen. Chock full of great insight into the brain and body functions. This is one of those videos that I am going to save in my RUclips list so I can listen to your medical knowledge over and over again, as there is so much knowledge I cannot grasp it all with just listening to the video once.
My mother in law had dementia that started with the "I forgot where I put this..." The progression was devastating and she lost her life to it. Thank you so much for bringing attention to this. She had type 2 diabetes as well. It makes you think though.
Thank you @jenniferporasky292. The memory loss is mostly associated with Alzheimer's, which is often called Type 3 Diabetes because of it's strong correlation to T2D.
how did she lost her life ???
@@anastasijabeograd3903 My Mom stopped eating. Then fell.
@@anastasijabeograd3903 she essentially lost her memory and "forgot" how to eat and drink. We put her into hospice shortly thereafter
Too much salt, oil and sugar, (SOS) in most peoples diets.
Both of my parents got very bad dementia in their early 80's so this presentation was very important to me! Good to know I am already doing many of the things I need to do. I have been exercising for over 40 years and decided to start two on-line business ventures in retirement. This is making me learn many new skills which I am hoping will keep my brain sharp.
Keep your cholesterol and blood glucose in normal range.
Look into Gotu Kola and Ginkgo Biloba mixed together, this will help to improve your cognitive function and most importantly, these herbal plants are natural, good luck 😎
Get rid of vegetable oils like Canola or Wesson. Use extra virgin olive, coconut oil, or avocado oil for cooking or frying, instead.
@@reyrey4261 And mostly saute rather than deep fry your food. Or else try steaming.
Thank you for these videos - this is critical information, I would never have had the time to research and critique the evidence (and propaganda) around food - enough to make informed decisions. - your whole ethos rings true and touches the core topics, advertising and labelling ploys that most of us fall victim to. This is fantastic - I wish you every success and happiness - what a great contribution to society.
Find a less stressful job. It’s the key for longevity.
After many decades after a hand injury I have again at 63 years old picked up my guitars again and started learning once again. I have read that learning to play an instrument is one of the best things you can do to stimulate the brain. Pretty sure I am not going to be doing much shredding lead riffs anymore but just playing involves a great deal of coordination and finger memory.
Best of luck to you getting back to guitar.
I’m 77 , I had singing lessons at aged 50, I’m about to go back to singing classes. I’m giving sugar and carbs away, I just threw out my ice cream out along with my GF bread 🥖 this bread is really no loss.
I’m starting keto tomorrow. I’ve tried and failed, tomorrow’s the day. 👌
This doctor has great oratory skills.
Very indepth presentation on dementia. This is a public service and will help so many people to avoid the risk.factors plus adopt positive habits. Thank you Dr.
Dude I thought you were Bruce Willis 💪
He’s a legend 🙌
Thanks for sharing excellent info.
Very timely: I am caregiver of a family member who went thru craniotomy & stroke & AVM removal as a result of TBI in 2021 so am watchful of evidence of Dementia symptoms but we do everything we can per this list. Family member is blessed to be fully functional so I say we need to just maintain. As for myself, I walk the walk except I can go all the way with Keto & IF, as well as other necessary preventative measures. Thanks for this.
I’m guessing all those 3 letter things are bad. Go watch Dr. Boz. She’s a big proponent of fasting to promote autophagy and ketones so the brain can repair itself. She helped her mom so it’s personal for her. Covaids got her unfortunately.
You are welcome @revview5594. Thank you for watching. 😄
It would be most helpful if you would use English rather than acronyms. Your reply was very good other than not working in your venue some people have no idea what you are writing about. Thanks.
@@jjjunem Your idea that this is not English is mistaken.
Hello Dr. Ekberg, am new to your channel & as a speech pathologist this video is of great interest to me. I’ll be recommending it!
Keep up the great work😊 🇦🇺
you mean improve your odds of NOT getting dementia !!! - clear and concise explanations - - as always - you are a gem of a human !!!
This video is like a treasure chest of condensed brain info. Thanks Doc.! ❤
Just saw video of 97 year old German gymnast. That was my sport.i am 73 gave me hope to live quality life
Dr. Eckberg thank you so much for making this video. I am 63 years old and I am trying the best I can with the keto diet/Mediterranean diet. I was under tremendous stress taking care of my mother and father full-time for the last 13 years and it’s really taking a toll on me so I am fasting and I am taking, many supplements because I can’t afford most of the food… As you know, the food that is good for you is the very expensive food… Lol… Anyway, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this video because I am just petrified of getting Alzheimer’s and or dementia because it is in my family from my grandmother on my father side to my grandmother on my mother side and my mom and a couple of aunts and uncles. The only thing that I am lacking is exercise. I will say I love to learn and I have 9° and I’ve read over 13,000 books. One of my goal is to read a book for every day of my life and I lived about 25,000 days, so I am about 12,000 books behind… But I will catch up… I hope I get to meet you someday you truly are a genius and one of the things I research a lot of is brilliant people and how they think and you are definitely on that list so I’m going to watch a lot of your videos and listen to your podcastsand learn as much as I can from what you teach. Thank you sir, and may God bless you and your family.❤
Dr. Ekberg , I like the picture with you and Bruce on the front page. You do look a like quite a bit. But you both also have some special charm as your own. Thank you for explaining things with such clarity and charm. And you are our Champion ! To me especially now. I have just discovered you last week.Thank you so much for wonderful videos.
Dr. Ekberg, I have two friends that could really benefit from watching this video. Thank you. I'm sharing it right now and have my fingers crossed that they will take the time to watch and study this.
Good morning Sal Thank you for continuously thinking about others and sharing. That is all we can do. Keep sharing. 😄
I can't help but respond... I'm 62 and take no prescription meds, and I've changed my life by watching Dr. Ekberg's videos and by embracing his tenets for improved health. This includes drastically reducing fast food, sugar and processed foods/oils, choosing organic/non-GMO foods as much as possible while on a budget and making intermittent fasting a part of my protocol. Friends have seen the changes in me (now at my ideal weight--last seen in college), but they seem to have no interest in making small modifications to improve their lives. I've shared his videos w/several friends and it makes me sad to see them drinking pop, eating fast food regularly, etc. Just wanted to give you a heads-up on how difficult it is to change people's minds/habits. Good luck though!
@@jeromeyoung6913 Yes, I've seen the exact same thing. And, I mean the EXACT same thing. I guess it's true..."you can lead a horse to water...
I was subscribed to your channel since 240K! Your channel growing so fest and soon you’ll surpass some other “big” channels…Congratualation doctor Ekberg! I tried to think, why is like it!? Simple! Your channel has more substance than any other health channel!
Thank you @protoword10. I really appreciate your feedback and so glad that you liked it. The purpose of my channel is to explain things better than other channels and help people understand the principles. I spend so much time on it because when we get "the why" and the mechanism we become empowered for life . Comments like yours makes it all worthwhile. 😄
Your video setup is fantastic! I am stunned every time on wich high quality your content is, but also how perfectly you are delivering it ! 👍
Plain and simple Doctor you are the best! I applaud your style by the way you explain things in simple terms for all to understand. Thank you.
Only channel where I like the videos, before I’ve even watched them..because I know I won’t ever be disappointed & will always learn something new ! 😁👍
You reminded me that my depression and loneliness are dangerous, despite my artistic skills and otherwise healthy lifestyle.
I have two dogs, and believe companionship from pets are great for our health - as long as we are taking good care of them so they can live their best lives. I pray your depression lifts, and that you don’t isolate from people. There’s really good people out there too! ❤
My mom died from FTD at 65. It was terrible to watch what happened to her. My dad died the same year, I think from the heartache and stress of watching my mom go downhill.
I am very interested in this kind of positive information, I’m always looking for ways to live a better life.
I always feel better when I exercise consistently. I’ve also noticed when I am consistent with my studies to learn Spanish I feel great.
My condolences 🙏 am just curious as to when your mom developed dementia because she died so young
I'm so sorry I'm going through that now.
@@millardthompson8157 same here. My mom just died from dementia ( on the new year day) this year. It was devastating. I’m still grieving now.
So 😊learn Arabic and your brain, will be in good shape...(seriously)...
Thanks wish yu a good life ❤️
Тhanks a lot for the explanation and the advice! It feels good to confirm that some things I do are right. I feel encouraged to follow the rest of the recommendations too. The calm and friendly lecture ends with an optimistic, positive tone, which I like very much. Thanks again!
Fantastic explanation Doc. Very patiently explained, with clarity and easily understood 👌 Thank you so very much 🙏🌹
Dear Dr Ekberg
Thank you for this great podcast of F / T Dementia.
I worked 10 years in a nursing home as a professional dying- and grieving councellar.
If I only would have heard this a few years earlier.
Well it‘s not too late to improve health.
Thank you very much
Love and light🇨🇭
Many scientist and doctors now know that dementia is 3rd diabetes type. So keto and carnviore diets work for these patients.
Also, Bruce has the EXPERIMENTAL coivd shots. He needs to detox the heavy metals including mercury, graphene out of his body and also parasites (YEP) that were put in these EXPERIMENTAL coivd shots.
There are ton of vids on how to detox your body of mercury, heavy metals (which are in ALL vaccines), parasites (many doctors believe 80-90% of citizens have them including USA citizens it's not just a 3rd world issues). see yt Dr Mindy Pelz, Dr Group, Eric Bakker naturopath, dr berg, Dr Mark Hyman vids on both how to detox heavy metals and also parasites. If you know somone that has dementia detox bodies (& brains) with the help of a Function or alternative medicine doctor (these are licensed doctors) or naturopath as you can get sick if you dont detox properly. Worth the time & money.
@@jansmith3158
Hi Jan thank you for your interesting answer. The last 5 weeks I had a proper detox program for the intestine to eliminate parasites, candida and heavy metal with a naturopath. It was fantastic. But thanks for letting me know!
Love and light from 🇨🇭
@@brigittarhyner9306 your welcome. Do you mind sharing what kind of products you used for your detox program? thank you.

If you would like some more information, please write your e-mail address. It‘s too difficult to explain through youtube
Have any of you looked up “Dr.“ Ekberg’s credentials? You know he’s not a medical professional, right?
My mom was diagnosed with rapid onset primary aphasia- which is scary and was the biggest motivator for me to make significant changes and go keto.
In the past I experienced a terrifying loss of memory, brain fog, and inability to come up with what to say. Along with symptoms of a totally shot immune system & gut issues. Turned out to be celiac disease- but it took years to heal!! Honestly, I never fully healed. I used to have easy learning with a photographic memory and now I have to study! But I got jump up in studying ease in the last few weeks since getting into ketosis (confirmed with blood tests).
My mom was on the low fat high carb diet all her life because my grandma thought that was healthy. She lost the ability to do her winter hobbies (reading and art) and I’m not sure if she can still garden anymore either. She lost friends because she can’t communicate anymore. It’s terrible.
Hi Dr Ekberg, I respect you tremendously and I’ve learned so much from you. One of the last videos I watched about sweeteners, you meant to say Stevia but you said Splenda and Monk fruit. I know what you meant but I’m such a detail person I thought I’d share this with you. On this video, you spelled volunteer like this, “volonteer,” You’re awesome! Keep up the great work.
This is a keeper👍 Some tips on keeping glucose levels low if one does eat carbs: 2-3 Table Spoons of (Real) EV Olive Oil just before a meal - Eat the carbs towards the end of the meal - And drink watered downed fruit based vinegar, I like both Red and White Balsamic Vinegar and sometimes Apple Cider Vinegar. One can also use plain White Vinegar if need be. For a sweetener now for over 20 years now I have been using liquid Stevia and for baking the crystals/powdered
