Alzheimer's May be Caused by Poor Diet
by Dr. Mercola
In spite of how common memory loss is among Westerners, it is NOT a "normal" part of aging. While even mild "senior moments" may be caused by the same brain lesions associated with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, these cognitive changes are by no means inevitable! One of the best ways to do this is by leading a healthy lifestyle.
- Fructose (Sugar) Most everyone will benefit from keeping their total fructose consumed to below 25 grams per day.
- Improve Magnesium Levels
- Optimize your vitamin D levels
- Keep fasting insulin levels below 3
- Eat a nutritious diet Vegetables, without question, are your best form of folate and we should all eat plenty of fresh raw veggies every day.
- High-quality animal-based omega-3 fats High intake of the omega-3 fats EPA and DHA help by preventing cell damage caused by Alzheimer's disease, thereby slowing down its progression and lowering your risk of developing the disorder.
- Avoid and remove mercury from your body Dental amalgam fillings, which are 50% mercury by weight, are one of the major sources of heavy metal toxicity, however, you should be healthy prior to having them removed.
- Avoid aluminum Found in such things as antiperspirants, non-stick cookware, vaccine adjuvants, etc.
- Exercise regularly
- Avoid flu vaccinations Most contain both mercury and aluminum, well-known neurotoxic and immunotoxic agents.
- Eat plenty of blueberries Wild blueberries, which have high anthocyanin and antioxidant content, are known to guard against Alzheimer's and other neurological diseases. Organic only.
- Challenge your mind daily Mental stimulation, especially learning something new, is vital.
- Avoid anticholinergic and statin drugs Drugs that block acetylcholine, a nervous system neurotransmitter, have been shown to increase your risk of dementia. These drugs include certain nighttime pain relievers, antihistamines, sleep aids, certain antidepressants, medications to control incontinence, and certain narcotic pain relievers.
Statin drugs are particularly problematic because they suppress the synthesis of cholesterol, deplete your brain of coenzyme Q10 and neurotransmitter precursors, and prevent adequate delivery of essential fatty acids and fat-soluble antioxidants to your brain by inhibiting the production of the indispensable carrier biomolecule known as low-density lipoprotein.
