Preventing and treating dementia with diet - long version (~40 minutes) with commentary.

This is pure gold I never get tired of Dr Mason's videos! Amazing!

[@Hnaljdv]

Same here!! It's the third time I'm listening to this one haha

I picture a mic drop at the end of every one of Dr Masons presentations. Thanks again Doc. Love your work.

Dementia is the top health concern for so many people in the UK because the institutional health care here is appalling- from NHS to care homes. Inhumane, cruel and sadistic. I would never want to be very sick or grow old here, you will be put on an assisted pathway plan before you're even diagnosed.

[@tobykelsey4459]

Indeed. DNR without consent or family discussion is getting more common.

[@gomogo2000]

Assisted Pathway Plan. Sounds ominous...

Dear Dr Mason, as a double APOE4 person, and someone who has been caring for her dad (advanced vascular dementia, and must have at least one copy of E4) for the last 5 years, I am so grateful for this video. My dad and I, have been low carb for a year and a half, but in the last 3 weeks we have been on a ketogenic diet, and there have been improvements in my dad's speech. Now dieticians wish to feed him bananas to get his weight up, even though his GP did his bloods about 3 months ago, and they were all good. The dietician has now got social work to investigate, under a care and protect order (in Glasgow, UK) I am devastated that after my dad's improvements, we will be forced to feed him sugar.

[@Chahlie]

My siblings feed our mother huge amounts of sugar ("because she likes it") and her memory is lousy and she is irrational. Sugar ought to be banned.

[@prins424]

That's terrible. How are things now?

[@Mojo849]

Thank you! It makes me sad when I think of loved ones who suffered and died because of a poor diet that was encouraged by the government and the AHA.

Thank you Definitely keto and carnivore helped me fix my irregular periods. I had PCOS and infertility so I went through infertility treatments twice for my two kids spending massive amout of money. I really wish I had known about these diets in my 20s. However, I am just glad to know now to fix my period.

[@proberts6861]

Thank you Dr. Paul Mason. You have opened my eyes. I am striving to remain on a Ketogenic diet lifestyle and to have my whole family- children, grandchildren, siblings, friends and relatives to move to a Ketogenic diet and experience the health benefits. I pray that God hears my prayers. God bless you and all the doctors involved in your efforts to make this world a healthier, happier and safer place to live in for generations to come.

[@marcuseik8926]

Great talk as always! I noticed that you missplaced the titles of omnivores and vegetarian diets on the AGEs - slide, so I used your reference and downloaded the study. It was a very interesting study, and what struck me was that the omniveres (traditional) was obviously EATING more AGEs than the vegetarians (alternative), yet there were more serum AGEs present in the vegetarians. How is this? The study concluded it was because of fructose. Can you perhaps even make a video on this topic? Is it possibly so that our guts deal with ingested AGEs and they only are a problem when they occur in the blood?

There is a condition called MCAD which i have. Keto high fat made me so.ill I nearly died because i cant breakdown fats due to a genetic metabolic disorder which causes blood sugar to fall so low you can go into hypoglycemic coma

[@lorettadillon-ham1574]

17:11 May I suggest an edit. “... even more so if you have ‘poor’ blood sugar levels”. To ‘elevated’ or ‘poorly controlled’ or ‘poorly managed’ however controlled or managed may lean towards the absolution of responsibility for the “healthy” non diabetic, normal adult, active teenager etc. I would like to hear this better applied to everyone in the community ... “poor” is a word that may lead to interpretation as “low” when I believe we are intending to mean elevated. (Just a thought) 🥰 Paul! “... bad” ? 17:20 🙄

[@paulasamec8715]

Green Deane It takes a lot of time to get rid of the havoc that seed oils- the ones which make you fat - are replaced with enough healthy saturated fats in your cells ( membranes ), up to 2 years, see Dr. Paul Saladino

[@florrie8767]

My triglycerides were normal.on plant diet but went high on more animal food diet

[@eugeniebreida1583]

@@florrie8767 that sounds logical to me. I am an omnivore who leans toward vegetables. But I do need calories in order to keep my weight, and animal meets provide decent calories and extra fats for that purpose. If I didn’t need more calories, I think it would be healthier to have very small amounts of meat, ideally at each meal, as one grows older

[@ianhoyle8459]

Interesting video thank you. Chronic disease seems more often than not attributed to diet, or thought to be preventable, or even reversible by diet. Many individuals would have difficulty following a challenging long term low carbohydrate diet. It seems inappropriate to offer this type of solution as a practical treatment.

[@T-aka-T]

Ian, on the contrary, it's the easiest diet to follow! Never hungry, top quality nutrition. What's to miss about empty carbs?? And in any case, why would a doc FAIL to recommend it as "impractical" when the alternative low fat high carb habit is making you sick? Strange comment to make.

[@nathansmith6914]

Dr Mason, can you get the same results with exogenous ketones? Because it might be hard to get people to change to a keto diet, especially if they have dementia.

[@greenfield1944]

according to Dr Ken Berry, no you just can't gulp down some exogenous ketones and get the benefits of the ketogenic diet.

[@scotchfillet]

@@greenfield1944 exogenous ketones can be used by the brain.

[@nathansmith6914]

@@scotchfillet Dr Boz had a video showing that but I don't know if it was as good as the keto diet. Still, you'd be mad not to do it.

[@T-aka-T]

The hardest thing to tackle is nursing home and hospital food. Shockingly non-nutritiious. So exogenous ketones may be better than nothing--maybe. I am guessing here, of course. However, the carb damage (high glucose) will still be occurring, so insulin levels will still be high despite the ketones (because the presence of ketones was not a function of deprivation of carbs). So maybe worth a try, but better to feed them real, fatty meat, meat and more meat 🥩 🥩 🥩 (not grey stew, peas and mashed potatoes followed by dessert).

N + 1 my mum was a gestational diabetic. I was 10.5 lbs and have dyslexia and on the spectrum

[@Chahlie]

So, I'm thinking this is why a high sugar diet affects memory so much...the insulin is so busy elsewhere, or something. I wonder how many older people are secret sugar eaters. I've heard stories of some doing almost anything to get their hands on it, and the consequent irrational behaviour.
