Awakening from Alzheimer's
I recently finished watching a free 12-episode webinar about the latest information/research on preventing Alzheimer's Disease. There are 1-hour interviews with 12 different MDs on their research and findings. Some of their names I recognized--David Perlmutter, David Katz, Jacob Teitelbaum, Dr. Bredeson from The Buck Institute--and others were new to me. They each approached AD from different directions (diet, lifestyle, supplements, etc.) and there was some overlap, but they all agreed that AD is preventable, and that even when a person already has AD, it's progress can be slowed, halted, and sometimes reversed.
The entire series will be repeated this weekend for free, starting at noon tomorrow (Friday) and continuing through Sunday. You can check it out at https://event.awakeningfromalzheimer...lot-evergreen/.
Additionally, Dr. Teitelbaum is currently conducting a free-to-participants study for people already diagnosed with AD or dementia. For more information on that, go to https://secure.endfatigue.com/mind-study-for-alzheimers.
Re: Awakening from Alzheimer's
Actually dementia is a complex disease with many sources. That includes Alzheimers, one of the diseases in the cluster. I think it's important to look at the disease holistically both for prevention and treatment, and to be proactive---but to avoid magical thinking.
Since AD is only one of many causes of dementia. It is important that we research and address the others.

We have our very own Research Institute in Sebastopol including clinical trials to reverse and/or slow down cognitive decline and early dementia symptoms by reducing build up of Amyloid in the brain.
For current and local information check out Dr. Allan Bernstein's work at

His next FREE talk on Brain Health will be at Sonoma West Medical Center, Wednesday, October 26th at 5:30pm
