[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 269621, member: 15043"] Here’s an amazing interview where Dr. Anthony Chaffee and a guy that owns assisted living homes talk in depth about alzheimers and dementia. They go over different cases of Alzheimer’s and dementia either being reversed, or the person‘s symptoms being greatly reduced Not sure if it was this interview, or a different one, but it’s theorized that beta-amyloid plaques are actually not the cause of Alzheimer’s/ dementia, but actually the brain’s response to these diseases. Kind of like how plaque build up in our blood vessels is not the cause of cardiovascular disease, but a reparative response due to micro-tears in the blood vessel lining. It’s possible that these beta-amyloid plaques are simply a reparative response in our brain. And just like how villainizing cholesterol and creating medications to lower cholesterol is absolutely the wrong approach when trying to treat cardiovascular disease, due to trying to attack a symptom, instead of the underlying cause, I wonder if the same thing is going on with villainizing beta-amyloid plaques, and creating medications to deal with them At the end of the day, alzheimers/ dementia and most cardiovascular disease have the same main root causes. Inflammation and insulin resistance. So to cure/ improve/ go to the root cause of either, it takes the same solutions. There’s unfortunately just no money to be made by big pharma in the actual solutions. Plenty to be made when ur treating a symptom/ causal effect of a disease tho. And the most genius thing about these drugs treating the symptoms/ causal effects is that they get people to take them indefinitely for the rest of their lives, and nothing ever gets cured/ resolved. Literal genius business model, I have to give it to them. In the interview below they talk about how studies show that simply eating a keto diet has been shown to be more effective than any alzheimers/ dementia drug currently on the market, in regards to improving/ resolving people’s alzheimer‘s/ dementia symptoms. They also reference a study showing that when dementia patients stopped taking their Memantine, which is a drug specifically prescribed to help with dementia symptoms, their dementia actually improved. And their dementia got worse when they went back on the medication. They also go over studies showing that Alzheimer’s patients symptoms improved when they discontinued the statin that they were on. And when they started taking the statin again, their symptoms got worse. I actually think they said that their alzheimers went away completely when discontinuing the statin, and returned completely when going back on the statin [MEDIA=youtube]8owAcO8lIwY[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
