The good news is that you can absolutely do plenty of things to prevent Alzheimer’s. Studies have shown consuming MCT oil produces ketones and has reversed symptoms by consuming 2-8 tablespoons a day, depending on severity and other factors. Staying well hydrated with filtered, fluoride-free water and a healthy whole foods diet and staying active will all do our minds good. They are malleable. I can’t list everything but a few other ideas is to be sure you are living in a healthy environment; mold free and air is purified. Taking things like a good source of lion’s mane and Magnesium Threonate (the only magnesium that crosses the blood brain barrier), etc.

Remember folks: he says DECADES before. As so many develop Alzheimers, he is on point. But it is no help whatsoever if no advice follows 🤦‍♀️

[@barbs1298]

You could go pay for a $10,000 brain scan w/him that no insurance will pay for & find out how well or sick your brain is. He's famous for his specialized brain scans. He has studied many brains including those of school shooters. They're called fMRI'S...functional MRI'S. Mel Robbins had one done by him several years ago. She did a video w/Dr. Amen on brain health. Maybe you can find something there to help. If we all had the money, influence & connections, we could access such info & perhaps find out what if anything we could do, but would you really want to know these things in your 30's???

[@cincin4515]

And menopause and stress disorders and normal aging and many other diseases.

[@dlmalley8639]

Yep, he leaves up to his audience to follow up.

[@sockpuppet2415]

Losing your keys is either carelessness or normal cognitive decline from aging. Not knowing what your keys are for is dementia. My relative’s dementia came with double incontinence. I saw someone I knew get Alzheimer’s and she lost teeth from poor dental maintenance.

[@LilithsOwn303]

I had a cranial hemorrhage and have all those same symptoms. I did teach myself not to forget what I need in the second room, by saying it "out loud" before going /stepping in. Works wonders!

[@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS]

I have ME and those symptoms can come and go. In my 20s I started losing words… mostly, for me, it’s nouns. I once left my house, travelled one block, and had to pull over because I was lost. Went to the doctors and as I was about to pay, the officer manager asked my name. I couldn’t remember my last name, but I remembered it was on my check, which I needed to pay and so I paused and opened my checkbook and read my name. And the room thing, yep, have been doing that since my 20s. Nearly 70, I still lose nouns, I know my name, I don’t get lost a block from my home, and I can’t park straight because I moved to a country with smaller aisles in parking lots, making it difficult for an American who is used to space to park.

[@karenharvey2549]

I'm a writer and a poet but I lose nouns. Apparently that is common in fibromyalgia, which I've had for 30+ years. ME and fibro symptoms are very similar possibly even the same illness.

[@violetmullikin1725]

I think I have early signs of Alzheimer's. Sometimes I go into a room to get something and I have to go back into the other room because I forgotten what I went in there to get. Jesus Lord help me in your mighty name I pray that you can keep me well you said you would amen❤

[@susancrawford5927]

That happens to almost everyone. One poster above described the difference: If someone walks into her kitchen and doesn't recognize it's her kitchen, that is like alzheimer's. My mother in law who died at 93 started the same. Her eldest daughter walked into her bathroom and she was just standing there, not knowing where she was.

[@theeggtimertictic1136]

Perfectly normal.

[@sabaukleba141]

I am 14 years old and i always think i have this😢😢 my family dont have this. I domt have person who have this diagnous. 😢

[@GT-ox3pe]

Listening to this is causing the stress and anxiety leading to dementia and Alzheimer’s

[@malihagarden7062]

In Alzheimer’s one forgets the most recent things that happened, but remembers old memories quite well.

[@UniversalMysticsOfChrist]

I experienced blood loss at age 29 and began to lose my expansive vocabulary. Thankfully, it was restored!!

[@sharonbaron6741]

My mother had early onset dementia. Her handwriting went early on. It became shaky and did not resemble her prior smooth penmanship. She forgot how to drive to my house about 6 months before she became unable to drive. She stopped being able to read a clock or a watch. She repeated herself frequently in conversations. But long before any of that (2-3years) She was unable to learn new things. She was still working and couldn't understand how to use the new word processor or the new phone system. She was forced to retire at 58.

[@jhavajoe3792]

Saddest thing. When it's a loved one, it seems like you're saying goodbye as they fade from the picture.

Thank you for sharing. It’s a terrible disease. ❤. Your mom was so young. I’m 59 right now. Sending you blessings.

[@resurgem]

My mum's handwriting went all fuzzy, too.

[@user-pm3sh9gr5h]

My dear dad faded away over the six years leading up to his death. When he actually physically passed away, I felt we had already lost him years before that moment. I think dementia is the slowest of all deaths. It's a tough situation to witness.

[@zain4915]

Alzheimer's can be reversed with diet, supplements and exercise. People have reversed it after the patients lost all their memories. Doctors lie to us.

[@masteryoflife5133]

I have this quite often, sometimes to the point that I am literally just wandering around aimlessly and can’t talk straight, I am 24 years of age. I am trying to stay healthy as much as possible, and do my best not to be lazy which is harder than you think.

[@Bliss20244]

Thanks for that "when you used to be able park straight" 😂

Every person I’ve ever met, has the exact symptoms all the young people in the old people 😂😂😂

[@sallymac9842]

My dads early sign was when the year turned to 2000. He was balancing his check book and was asking my brother when do we change the 2 to a 3. He was also confused at my sisters house on which door to use to go outside because there was a basement door, half bath and a closet door along with the outside door in the same hallway

[@brendaburke7391]

Well that’s scary… I’ve been like that since my 20s. How am I supposed to know if it’s the start of Alzheimer’s or being distracted and not in the moment?

[@KassandraFuria13]

My parents became 95 and 99 ,both with a clear mind . So I , now 70, do not worry . Sometimes I am indeed struggling for a word I know for sure, but still can speak English, French and Greek rather fluently beside my German language.

[@lilymack4028]

Thanks. BUT, all my life I've occasionally walked into a room & forgot what I was there for & it comes back when I retrace my steps. The searching for words thing is worrisome 'cause at 74, I sometimes have that. Live my life, sleep enough, eat well, & keep busy. It's all I can do...

[@blove8887]

Please make a video on preventative supplements/ mental exercises to aid in preventing this 🙏

[@user-wh5ir4fo4r]

My doc: caffeine, based on studies he's read. Researchers: fight against diabetes. Alzheimer's is called "type 3 diabetes"; it's the damage to your brain from excess glucose. Keep your glucose and natural insulin under control.

[@dianepeters7485]

I am 64 now, and I’ve had trouble parking straight, especially in reverse, forgetting why I entered a room, and finding a word that’s just like on the tip of my tongue… since I was in my 20s!

[@originalunoriginal4055]

For me, each morning when I wake up and head over to the bathroom, to brush my teeth, wash face and use the loo. That's the only reason and I would need to head to the bathroom in the morning after waking up. But, over the last 6 +months, I find myself asking why I am in the bathroom.

[@patrix1987]

I've been experiencing going into a room and not remembering what I wanted to do / take from there and having trouble finding words (especially names, of people, cities and especially in social situations) as far as I remember

[@proanimaluver6487]

Yup and ever so often I'll find the salt shaker I put in my fridge!!!

[@barbs1298]

That's because we're all distracted & anxious about this crazy world we live in. If we don't focus in the present moment when we do things, we put things in strange places or don't remember where we set something down. And who hasn't forgotten a word or 2 as we age??

[@sherrimarie165]

​@@barbs1298my thoughts exactly!!!! 😂

[@cincin4515]

​@@barbs1298not even anxious. The art of focusing properly went down the toilet 2 generations ago. I worked with a group of women who literally could not finish a sentence.

[@cindyknudson2715]

lack of sleep will affect language, etc too

[@randihigginbotham5070]

The loss of words part is tricky. Especially if you and your partner have been together for so long, you can finish one another’s sentences. Or, piece together sentences from jumbled words. “Babe! Who’s that actor that was in that commercial but also that movie I hate but the show we love?” I mean.. that’s freakin marriage.

[@bobwishart8780]

That’s so true!!

[@sofiaoltremare6232]

Menopause, stress, traumas... You struggle to mantein Your intentions bcs You're carried away with intrusive ideas, thus You forget why You are in a room, what You were on the verge to do... You feel anxiety and that is so detrimental for Your concentration. A lack of concentration is correlated to poor temporal lobes outcomes. So difficult to discriminate and unfortunately fear doesn't help! Stay positive, centered, optimistic and interact the more is possible (friends, relatives, peers/collegues, neighbours, shop assistents, etc.): interaction is fundamental to understand, compare, ask for help and recovery.🌷

[@jenniferwells9032]

Yes, and also ageing. I can’t bring a word out sometimes in a nano second, but it does always come back so far 🙏❤️

[@rf3811]

We need to get all these toxins and poisons out of our food, air, water, and medicines, which would put an end to it real quickly! Heavy metals in the body are the main contributors to this awful death sentence.

[@lucakat9262]

I agree completely! I wish sometimes I could go back to the 1970s or even my grandmother's day because there wasn't all the pollution, toxins, poisons, chemicals, ect. Another thing no one wants to think about is all of the plastic and silicone we consume. I know it sounds wild. But plastic is now being found in fish that we eat. It's because we have thrown bits and pieces of it into the ocean and the fish sometimes eat it. Also, there is silicone in some daily vitamins and supplements. Just check the labels. Literally I could write a book about all the bad stuff that we consume and some things we inhale in the air. It's a shame. Sometimes I wonder if we are going towards a real dystopian world and it won't just be Sci Fi anymore.😳

Alzheimer is when you lived somewhere for 20 years and you are two streets away from your house and don’t know how to get home

[@jewelltones]

That's later. This talks about signs before the loss of function is noticeable to anyone else.

[@bakokat6982]

Your correct! My mom’s first signs of Alzheimer’s was getting lost on her way home from my sister’s house which was only 2 miles away from her house. My mom had a very sharp and quick thinking brain, but slowly her abilities to do things she was very good at disappeared.

[@LawOfAttraction-ed2mx]

Well I have all these since I was born and they vaccinated the sh!t out of me. Side effect of mercury poisoning is exact what you just said. I am 43, detoxing this year finalizing as the last 2 mercury fillings are finally out too and my brain cleared out over night after removal. Also my shoulders unfreeze, bc both were connected as a meridian to those 2 teeth. Also another mercury poisoning goes with light efficiency bulbs which is also forbidden to talk about but I have none in my house. So guys, go and detox and you will be well. Don’t do fake pink blue yellow sweet replacements, that f..s with your nervous system too, hard to detox. Lastly watch seminars of Jim Quick to improve your memory, also do some balance training - major reg memory and dementia and you will be blooming like Japanese ❤ 100+ healthy souls

Fun fact. A study proved that doorways have a certain effect on the way the brain works something about entering a new space and that was linked to forgetting why you went into a place . Your brain takes in the new environment as a new challenge or new info and bypasses the old one you had in your previous environment
