Promising Advancement Against Dementia...

[Yeshuasdaughter]

More and more, doctors are referring to Dementia as Type Three Diabetes.

It could be at least somewhat related to sugar, carbs, and seed oils.

It is suggested that a diet that is high fat and high protein, yet low in carbohydrates may be beneficial to people with Dementia.

Dementia and Alzheimers rates skyrocketed after the cholesterol and saturated fat scares, and the resulting carboloading of the 1980s and 90s.

Back when higher cholesterol and healthy saturated fat scores were considered normal and healthy, there was less alzheimers and dementia. The brain needs cholesterol. The entire body does.

What if it turns out that red meat, butter, tallow, real sea salt, and lots of water are the best things for grandma?

There is substantial evidence that older people need to eat more protein than younger people so their bodies can repair themselves. Drug and alcohol use, genetics, age, and lifestyle also can play a role in whether someone develops dementia. One of the worst things for aging people is to sit (stupefied) in front of a television or a computer monitor all day. We need to exercise our minds and bodies, eat a balanced diet, get adequate sleep, and consistently stay hydrated. It also helps to have friends and family members who care about you and to socialize with. Pets can help, too. Like it or not, humans are social creatures.

Was it definitely Shringrix?

That's implied by some incidental data in the link in the OP, but I didn't see the name anywhere.

THE ARTICLE repeatedly referred to the "live-attenuated" vaccine. That would be the Zostavax vaccine. If the outcome relies on successfully countering the [chickenpox/shingles] virus, the "inactivated" vaccine, Shingrix, should also be effective, but that has not been confirmed experimentally.

' I totally don't agree with what this post is saying- that vaccines are good.

from my experience - I got a lot worst symptoms at a vaccine (which I got at 15 years, I am 24 years now - and seriously debilitated from it !

This whole thread is interesting, dementia and alzheimers were recently listed here as leading causes of death so I got curious about what studies we might be doing in to it. There's a lot of studies and experiments going on here too as it turns out but nothing groundbreaking yet.

One of the research centres had a rather sad mission statement on it's main page though:
"Making Alzheimer's a distant memory for future generations."

A leading causes of death - AND ITS CAUSED BY HEAVY METALS,

AND MSYELF tim writing this : also have heavy metals (physical disease/inflammation (but because of my biology (it manifested as autism (instead of dementia) , i have short term memory problems certain similarities with dementia ,

"I think this fourm post is wrong to be on this website " H

That was always one of my concerns when I was younger. I was a Printer and all the inks are heavy metal oxides, in combination with the acids we worked with it was considered a high risk job for dementia. I only did that for 20 years though and seem to have escaped unscathed.
