Prevent – Even Reverse – Alzheimer's Disease

Well hi there! Thanks for stopping by today. You're looking good, I must say! Taking your vitamins are you? Eating lots of greens, too? Well wash it all down with a nice mug of coffee. Pick up a virtual treat as well, why don't'cha? Speaking of eating your greens, I got another email from my pal, Dr. Al and he says it is possible to prevent, maybe even reverse, Alzheimer's Disease. Wouldn't that be something, eh! Read on...

Dear Bob,

The specter of Alzheimer's disease is terrifying. Memory lapses are just the beginning. You gradually lose your ability to make judgments or learn new things. Eventually you can't take care of yourself or even recognize your spouse or children.

Alzheimer's steals your identity.

Most mainstream doctors will tell you that Alzheimer's is totally unpredictable and can strike anyone as they get older. But I don't agree. 

It is possible to prevent Alzheimer's. I see mounting evidence of it every day.

I'm not talking about using Big Pharma's drugs. They're designed only to slow down the progress of the disease. And they're not even very effective at that.   

I'm talking about real steps you can take today to minimize your risk. And there is very strong scientific data to back me up on this.

Here's what you can do…

1. Keep a trim figure. A recent British study found a strong link between obesity and dementia. In fact, people who were overweight in middle age had a 35% greater risk of dementia. Obese people had a staggering 74% increased risk.¹

2. Eat more greens. A South Korea study found a direct link between a deficiency of folate (vitamin B9) and Alzheimer's. People who developed Alzheimer's had an "exaggerated" decline in their B9 levels. Overall, people with low folate had three times the risk of developing Alzheimer's or dementia.² 

Folate is abundant in leafy greens like kale, spinach, and turnip greens, as well as beans, peas, and certain fruits. You can also take a folic acid supplement. I recommend getting at least 800 mcg per day.

3.  Boost your brain antioxidants. A landmark study found that people who take antioxidants have only one-third the risk of Alzheimer's disease compared with those who don't.³

One very powerful brain antioxidant is acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC). Researchers tested it on people with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer's. Just 1.5 to 3 grams of ALC per day significantly improved their brain function across the board after just three months.⁴

There is also one special brain food I recommend to my patients. It helped one man reverse his Alzheimer's in just 37 days. My colleague Dr. Frank Shallenberger explains everything you need to know about this powerful food in his report How to Reverse Alzheimer's Disease.

I'm already taking too many dang pills but maybe I'll add some L-Carnitine to the assortment. The ol' brain could use some additional stimulation...know what I mean?

See ya, eh!

Bob
