@HalCranmer Thanks so much for sharing our study!

If people are interested, here is the link to the pre-print paper. It has been submitted to the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, but the peer review is pending.

@drgurner @HalCranmer Testing and treating infections was one of the important features of this study. I do think they are often not evaluated, and they are a major contributor to Dementia.

@RealMilesBerger @HalCranmer Thanks for your interest. Here's a link to the Preprint publication. The paper has been submitted to the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease peer review, but that is still pending.

@janellison @janellison
I've tried from your link and Chris Palmer's link and Andrew Huberman's link and none of them are allowing me to get to the petition for signing or sharing.

Is there some other way to access it?

[Kat Toups, MD, DFAPA, IFMCP @kattoupsmd]

@ChrisPalmerMD Ugh! I keep trying to get the link to sign the petition and Sherie, but the link goes to a statement of the problem with nowhere to sign.

Is there another way to share the link ?

@IHateCilantro @ElieJarrougeMD Need to be sure you're eating clean, non-inflammatory fats first stuff.

Combined with exercise and good blood sugar control, I see these markers come down in my patients.

Make sure you're looking at all of the advanced lipid markers. Quest cardio IQ is a good test to follow.

@NBCDFW That was supposed to say I would likely stop flying Southwest if they abandoned the open seating…

[Kat Toups, MD, DFAPA, IFMCP @kattoupsmd]

@NBCDFW I would like to stop flying on Southwest if they abandoned there open seating and boarding group process. It works beautifully for me.

Why not just add a premium seating option but continue to offer the current open seating structure?

Yet another study has found that taking a multivitamin can improve memory and slow cognitive aging. Imagine the results this study would have had if they used vitamins targeted towards brain health or used a precision medicine approach. https://t.co/t2Nt5WU61V

Following on the success of our first Precision Medicine clinical trial with Dr. Dale Bredesen where 84% of our patients with mild cognitive impairment and early dementia had improvements, including their MRI head scans, here's the next one:

@DrDaleBredesen Conclusion was interesting: don’t take Apigenin as a supplement, because we don’t know if it will get into the brain.

But the study showed that giving Apigenin increased the amyloid clearance in the brain.

Instead, they say wait for the drug! Not to eat parsley & onions.

If you’re interested in some of the latest information and research on preventing and reversing mild cognitive impairment and dementia, please check out this free summit starting Friday 11/11. My interview will be on Sunday 11/13.

@DrDaleBredesen This doesn’t surprise me.

I think the immune system plays a role in a majority of Neurodegenerative conditions.

But always glad to have more information on this devastating condition.

An early sign of Alzheimer’s is the breaking down of the locus coeruleus, which supplies the brain with noradrenaline. Can ADHD drugs increase this chemical and improve function for Alzheimer’s patients? https://t.co/oJv2t0rahw

[Dr. Rhonda Patrick @foundmyfitness]

When we exercise, the brain structure changes to accommodate - especially in motor regions and areas that need more oxygen.

Increased physical activity is associated with LARGER brain volumes and thicker cortical regions - which is linked to intelligence.

@drschweig @BayAreaLyme @SnyderShot @Stanford I can’t find any links for referring patients to the study. Any ideas on this?

[Kat Toups, MD, DFAPA, IFMCP @kattoupsmd]

BIG NEWS!!!
Our dementia clinical trial was published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease on July 4!

This is really an unprecedented result, where 84% of people with MCI and Mild Alzheimer’s got better, including improvements in their heads scans!

@DrDaleBredesen There’s a fair amount of data for using vibration plates in the elderly, including with neurodegenerative disorders. I’ve been recommending these for a lot of my patients.

[Kat Toups, MD, DFAPA, IFMCP @kattoupsmd]

@rickberke @statnews And, more evidence linking viruses and neurodegenerative disorders after we have now seen so many cases of people ostensibly recovering from Covid, and then manifesting symptoms of dementia.
