Beating Alzheimer's by Tom Warren Pdf

Beating Alzheimer’s is considered by many to be impossible. But incredible as it may seem, the man who wrote this book was given the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease, a diagnosis as dreaded as cancer to most people, and reversed his devastating symptoms. Traditional medicine, with all of its modern technology and thousands of “wonder” drugs, has failed to solve the most tragic illness, one which causes you to be sentenced for the rest of your life to a world of increasing forgetfulness, and to become a burden to those around you, unable to dress or feed yourself, not recognizing your children or your spouse when they walk into the room. How is it, then, that Tom Warren was able to recover from such an incurable disease and now lives a meaningful, useful life? Tom had to take responsibility for his health into his own hands and, through extensive reading, was able to find the crucial steps that led to his recovery. Now his step-by-step plan is available for everyone.

Defeating Dementia by Richard MD Furman, FACS Pdf

Dementia. It's one of the most dreaded conditions we face as we age. Many people claim they would rather be diagnosed with cancer than dementia or Alzheimer's. What many don't realize is that dementia is not a forgone conclusion as we get older. Our own lifestyle choices and habits can have a significant impact--for good or ill--on our chances of developing the disease. And that means there's hope. Drawing from the latest medical research, Dr. Richard Furman helps readers understand dementia and Alzheimer's and shows them how to make three powerful lifestyle changes that can help decrease the probability of developing this disease. He explains how eating the right foods, exercising, and sustaining an ideal weight can dramatically reduce the likelihood of developing dementia in the first place, and even how it can slow the progression of the disease in someone who has already received a diagnosis.

Beating the Dementia Monster by David Brown,David H Brown, PH. Pdf

In 2015, David Brown was shown three common words and was asked to remember them. He was drilled on the words repeatedly and was then asked a few minutes later to repeat them. He could recall only one word. Based on test results like this, his neurologist identified cognitive impairment. Later, his care team would read MRIs that showed progressive atrophy of his brain that signaled Alzheimer's disease. He was 65 years old. But late in 2017, Mr. Brown was given a test with 10 words to remember, and he could confidently recall nine of them. In another memory test, he scored perfectly. What happened? Mr. Brown investigated what was being shown by scientific research to actually counter cognitive decline. Based on his investigation, he formulated his own strategy which has worked spectacularly for him. He now wants to share that strategy with the hope that it will help others. In Beating the Dementia Monster, he tells his personal story and describes his strategy. He also identifies scientific research that explains why his strategy has worked so well. If you are looking for the magic dietary supplement or the exotic diet that will cure your cognitive decline, it's not here. However, if you or someone you love is facing the progression of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), there are things that you may be able to do to slow, stop, or even reverse cognitive decline. "David Brown's regimen has made a remarkable difference in his cognitive impairment. What he recommends is practical, doable, and good for all aspects of your health, both physical and psychological. It is something that anyone confronting MCI should try." Tae-Im Moon, Ph.D.Licensed Clinical Psychologist "Engaging and informative." Carrie S. Brown, Ph.D.Author of Rosie's Mom: Forgotten Women Workers of the First World War

Beating the Dementia Monster by David Brown Pdf

Second edition, updated and expanded. In 2015 Dave Brown was diagnosed with "early stage senile dementia, likely of the Alzheimer's type." MRIs found that his brain had atrophied significantly, and he did poorly on cognitive tests. He experienced episodes in which he couldn't remember his phone number or zip code of 30 years. He had to stop driving, and he became confused when crossing the street. His doctors sadly informed him that he had mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to Alzheimer's disease. The disease could only be expected to advance. Three years later he was excelling on cognitive tests, driving safely, and functioning normally. What happened? Dave blended the advice he got from his medical care team with his detailed research on the science of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. He developed what he calls The Dementia Toolkit; an approach to generating the physiological changes in the body that can slow, stop, and even reverse the advance of the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. In this book he details each piece of the toolkit and explains what science understands about them. In the first edition of Beating the Dementia Monster, Dave gave an account of the early but remarkable improvements he was experiencing in his cognition. In this updated and significantly expanded edition, he is joined by Dr. Vaishali S. Phatak, Associate Professor of Neuropsychology at the University of Nebraska Medical School. Dr. Phatak provides additional insight on Dave's experience and on the science of neuropsychology. There is no cure for Alzheimer's, but Dave's experience shows that there is a lot that can be done to recover as much as a decade from this horrible disease.

The Problem of Alzheimer's by Jason Karlawish Pdf

A definitive and compelling book on one of today's most prevalent illnesses. In 2020, an estimated 5.8 million Americans had Alzheimer’s, and more than half a million died because of the disease and its devastating complications. 16 million caregivers are responsible for paying as much as half of the $226 billion annual costs of their care. As more people live beyond their seventies and eighties, the number of patients will rise to an estimated 13.8 million by 2050. Part case studies, part meditation on the past, present and future of the disease, The Problem of Alzheimer's traces Alzheimer’s from its beginnings to its recognition as a crisis. While it is an unambiguous account of decades of missed opportunities and our health care systems’ failures to take action, it tells the story of the biomedical breakthroughs that may allow Alzheimer’s to finally be prevented and treated by medicine and also presents an argument for how we can live with dementia: the ways patients can reclaim their autonomy and redefine their sense of self, how families can support their loved ones, and the innovative reforms we can make as a society that would give caregivers and patients better quality of life. Rich in science, history, and characters, The Problem of Alzheimer's takes us inside laboratories, patients' homes, caregivers’ support groups, progressive care communities, and Jason Karlawish's own practice at the Penn Memory Center.

Defeating Dementia by Francis C. McNear Pdf

"Defeating Dementia ... is a critically important account that should be read by the millions in the early stages of dementia, their caregivers, the many at risk for dementia, and the families searching for the very hope that McNear provides." Dale. E. Bredesen, M.D. Author of the New York Times Bestseller, The End of Alzheimer's. Do you hear yourself or someone you love saying the words, "I can't remember or "I don't remember" more frequently? Are you wondering if something seriously wrong may be starting to happen? Afraid to find out? Don't really want to know what's going on? YOU ARE NOT ALONE. In 2009, I began having serious problems with my memory. It took three years before I was diagnosed and in those three years our finances became a train wreck. I wouldn't admit to myself or anyone else that my mind was slipping. I was afraid, but more than that, I believed that even if I had dementia, there was nothing that could be done to help me. I thought dementia was irreversible and terminal. I was wrong. Thanks to a recent breakthrough in dementia studies and treatment, I am currently recovering from early onset Alzheimer's. That is correct. I am one of several thousand people in the United States following the recently developed Bredesen Protocol and, as a result, my memory and my life have been restored to order. In this book, I will take you on my journey and will tell you about the Bredesen Protocol that saved my life. I also provide helpful information for caregivers and outline the different kinds of dementia. I believe that, once you have read this book, you will feel empowered, whether you are facing dementia yourself or are caring for someone who is. You are not helpless. You are not alone. And, there is hope. I'm living proof of this.
