Breaking Alzheimer's by Dayan Goodenowe Pdf

Breaking Alzheimer's is Dr. Dayan Goodenowe's story of personal and scientific perseverance. The biochemical mechanisms of neurological disease is his area of expertise and was his area of expertise for 15 years before he serendipitously discovered that low plasmalogen levels were causing Alzheimer's. Dr. Goodenowe had never heard of plasmalogens and he had never been taught about them. There are now 15 years of supportive validation of this discovery and access to plasmalogen testing and supplementation is now available to everyone. By sheer will, Dr. Goodenowe has completed the beginning and the middle of this journey such that the plasmalogen genie cannot be put back in the bottle. This book is about bringing the reader up to speed as to where we currently are on this journey and where we are going from here. The Breaking Alzheimer's Video Series and Audio Book will be available through Dr. Dayan Goodenowe's website soon. Learn more about Dr. Goodenowe and his educational content here: https: //drgoodenowe.com To learn more about Dr. Goodenowe's scientifically designed supplements and blood testing technology visit the Prodrome Sciences website here: https: //prodrome.com ADVANCE PRAISE "A paradigm-altering view of Alzheimer's." Dale Bredesen, MD Author of The New York Times Bestseller The End of Alzheimer's "A brilliant and ground-breaking text on the science and clinical application of plasmalogens for the therapeutic amelioration of Alzheimer's Dementia. I have had the good fortune of observing firsthand the significant, clinical benefits in my patients with neurodegenerative disorders for whom I've prescribed plasmalogen therapy." Mitchel Fleisher M.D., D.Ht., D.A.B.F.M., Dc.A.B.C.T. Medical Director, Center for Integrative & Regenerative Medicine "A bold and promising approach. Dr. Goodenowe has performed groundbreaking and compelling research which is detailed in the book so that afflicted patients and health professionals will become aware of a discovery which may very well change our approach to Alzheimer's. We have been deploying plasmalogen precursors at the Regenesis Project and have found that within the timeframe of a few weeks, people become more alert and cognizant." Sheldon Jordan, MD, FAAN, DABPN, DABCN Medical Director, the Regenesis Project "Dr. Goodenowe has not only identified a biomarker-plasmalogen-that is strongly correlated with dementia, but he has also discovered a way to track and improve that marker allowing ApoE4 carriers, at the highest genetic risk for Alzheimer's, to potentially avoid disease onset. Indeed, many of our members have had a noticeable improvement after addressing low levels." Julie Gregory Founder & President of ApoE4.Info "I strongly recommend this book which I hope will be as transformative for you as it has been for me. It is easy to read and understand and will impact your everyday decision making." Bijan Pourat MD ACC FRCP(C) "Dayan Goodenowe has drilled down to the very core of what makes us tick. His patient 25 year journey of research and invention has unpacked unique and marvelous understanding into how our metabolic engine works. We have a whole new field of medicine opening up called "metabolic medicine" and it runs right through Dr. Goodenowe's inventions. Like tuning your carburetor and timing your engine, we can now heal your mitochondria and make your peroxisomes whistle with the careful measurement and replacement of plasmalogens. The implications of his inventions can't be overstated. This is the end of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, cancer....and who knows what lies ahead in the paradigm shift to true wellness with the absence of disease." John E. Whitcomb, MD Brookfield Longevity Medical Clinic

The End of Alzheimer's by Dale Bredesen Pdf

The instant New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller A groundbreaking plan to prevent and reverse Alzheimer’s Disease that fundamentally changes how we understand cognitive decline. Everyone knows someone who has survived cancer, but until now no one knows anyone who has survived Alzheimer's Disease. In this paradigm shifting book, Dale Bredesen, MD, offers real hope to anyone looking to prevent and even reverse Alzheimer's Disease and cognitive decline. Revealing that AD is not one condition, as it is currently treated, but three, The End of Alzheimer’s outlines 36 metabolic factors (micronutrients, hormone levels, sleep) that can trigger "downsizing" in the brain. The protocol shows us how to rebalance these factors using lifestyle modifications like taking B12, eliminating gluten, or improving oral hygiene. The results are impressive. Of the first ten patients on the protocol, nine displayed significant improvement with 3-6 months; since then the protocol has yielded similar results with hundreds more. Now, The End of Alzheimer’s brings new hope to a broad audience of patients, caregivers, physicians, and treatment centers with a fascinating look inside the science and a complete step-by-step plan that fundamentally changes how we treat and even think about AD.

The End of Alzheimer's Program by Dale Bredesen Pdf

The instant New York Times bestseller The New York Times Best Selling author of The End of Alzheimer's lays out a specific plan to help everyone prevent and reverse cognitive decline or simply maximize brainpower. In The End of Alzheimer's Dale Bredesen laid out the science behind his revolutionary new program that is the first to both prevent and reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Now he lays out the detailed program he uses with his own patients. Accessible and detailed, it can be tailored to anyone's needs and will enhance cognitive ability at any age. What we call Alzheimer's disease is actually a protective response to a wide variety of insults to the brain: inflammation, insulin resistance, toxins, infections, and inadequate levels of nutrients, hormones, and growth factors. Bredesen starts by having us figure out which of these insults we need to address and continues by laying out a personalized lifestyle plan. Focusing on the Ketoflex 12/3 Diet, which triggers ketosis and lets the brain restore itself with a minimum 12-hour fast, Dr. Bredesen drills down on restorative sleep, targeted supplementation, exercise, and brain training. He also examines the tricky question of toxic exposure and provides workarounds for many difficult problems. The takeaway is that we do not need to do the program perfectly but will see tremendous results if we can do it well enough. With inspiring stories from patients who have reversed cognitive decline and are now thriving, this book shifts the treatment paradigm and offers a new and effective way to enhance cognition as well as unprecedented hope to sufferers of this now no longer deadly disease.

Broken Fragments by Douglas Kohn Pdf

After Moses shattered the first set of Ten Commandments, destroying them with the Golden Calf, Moses did not discard those tablets' broken fragments. Although he returned to Mount Sinai to replace the tablets of the Ten Commandments, the shattered shards of the earlier set also were retained. From this the Talmud teaches, "Respect the aged, because the fragments of the original tablets were preserved in the Ark with the new ones" (Babylonian Talmud, B'rachot 8b). Alzheimer's disease represents a human set of broken fragments. American Jews are living longer. With aging comes a greater risk of Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. Is there a Jewish response, or a response among Jews, to this worrisome illness? In essays by physicians, Jewish clergy, social workers, and family members of people with Alzheimer's disease, Broken Fragments weaves touching personal stories and rich Jewish texts into each chapter's narrative. It offers the comfort and wisdom of our ancient tradition while providing meaning and encouragement for the Alzheimer's caregiver of today. Book jacket.

In Love by Amy Bloom Pdf

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A powerful memoir of a love that leads two people to find a courageous way to part—and a woman’s struggle to go forward in the face of loss—that “enriches the reader’s life with urgency and gratitude” (The Washington Post) “A pleasure to read . . . Rarely has a memoir about death been so full of life. . . . Bloom has a talent for mixing the prosaic and profound, the slapstick and the serious.”—USA Today ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: NPR Amy Bloom began to notice changes in her husband, Brian: He retired early from a new job he loved; he withdrew from close friendships; he talked mostly about the past. Suddenly, it seemed there was a glass wall between them, and their long walks and talks stopped. Their world was altered forever when an MRI confirmed what they could no longer ignore: Brian had Alzheimer’s disease. Forced to confront the truth of the diagnosis and its impact on the future he had envisioned, Brian was determined to die on his feet, not live on his knees. Supporting each other in their last journey together, Brian and Amy made the unimaginably difficult and painful decision to go to Dignitas, an organization based in Switzerland that empowers a person to end their own life with dignity and peace. In this heartbreaking and surprising memoir, Bloom sheds light on a part of life we so often shy away from discussing—its ending. Written in Bloom’s captivating, insightful voice and with her trademark wit and candor, In Love is an unforgettable portrait of a beautiful marriage, and a boundary-defying love.
