Before discussing the treatments, see this incredible article on Alzheimer's research: The treatments will be largely ordered by their importance.
DMSO and MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane)If you read the "Alzheimer's Research Article," just mentioned, it should be remembered that DMSO (Dimethyl sulfoxide) is a solvent and may be able to dissolve the "red cellophane-looking" substance mentioned in the article. More will be said about DMSO in a moment. One substance which is critical for a person with dementia is MSM, a close cousin to DMSO. There are several reasons for using MSM. First, MSM gets oxygen into the brain, as does DMSO. MSM has two extra oxygen atoms that it freely distributes. Second, MSM also contains a methyl molecule. This may be a key molecule for the brain. Third, MSM contains a sulfur molecule and is frequently called organic sulfur. Food processing virtually removes all organic sulfur from our diets. The bottom line is that MSM reduces swelling and inflammation, it gets oxygen to the brain, it may rebuild nerves (its cousin molecule DMSO is known to regerate nerves and remember that these heavy metals damage the brain nerves), and it may have many other benefits. It works!! The average person of 200 pounds should take an average of 10 grams of MSM a day, though they could take 5 times that amount. A person needs to build up over a period of a few days if they are taking more than 2 grams a day, so the digestive tract gets used to it.
Here is an entire article on how to buy MSM and how to take MSM very easily:
As mentioned above, another item worth looking at is DMSO. See this article (read until you have finished reading about his mother): DMSO should generally NOT be taken orally unless it is mixed with additional water or fruit juice. The reason is that it dehydrates whatever it touches. It can cause a rash or dehydration in the digestive tract if it is not mixed with enough water or fruit juice. DMSO is generally simply rubbed on the skin, where it will quickly penetrate the skin. If a rash develops, spray the rash with water. The rash is caused by the DMSO dehydrating the skin. For an Alzheimer's patient, it can be rubbed on the back of the neck. To avoid a rash developing on the skin, an MSM cream can be used after the DMSO has penetrated the skin.
If you take more than a teaspoon of DMSO a day, it can cause an unpredictable amount of body odor. See this article for safety warnings about DMSO: MSM does not dissolve substances as well as DMSO, thus these two molecules are needed for different things.
The Bob Beck Protocol (Getting Rid of Microbes)Several things to kill microbes were mentioned above. However, the king of all microbe treatments is the Bob Beck Protocol, which is an electromedicine treatment. Getting rid of the microbes in a person's body will help dementia and Alzheimers patients. The Bob Beck Protocol does not kill microbes, it disables them so that the body is able to get rid of them. Also, by removing every microbe from the body of a person, the body's immune system is allowed to function properly.
Here is an article on the Bob Beck Protocol related to cancer which explains how to use the protocol:
Chelation (Oral or by I.V.)While heavy metals do physical damage to the brain, it is important to remove the heavy metals from the brain before they do even more damage. There are several ways to "chelate" heavy metals (i.e. to "chelate" means to find a molecule that binds to heavy metals and removes the heavy metals from the body). The best chelation therapy is EDTA chelation therapy, given as an I.V. by a medical doctor. This treatment has been known about for decades, but because EDTA chelation is not profitable enough for orthodox medicine the treatment has been buried. It is not that EDTA chelation is not expensive, it is expensive. The problem is that it cures the patient too quickly, and it does not treat the symptoms of Alzheimer's. In short, it is not profitable enough for Big Pharma (i.e. the pharmaceutical industry) and it is not "sophisticated" enough, meaning it is too simple, for Big Medicine. Big Pharma and Big Medicine like to treat symptoms, not causes. Here is a quote:
Everyone was gratified except Big Pharma. Not everyone can get access to EDTA chelation therapy. EDTA is also sold as pills, which is called "oral chelation." Oral chelation products generally contain a large number of other chelating moledules, not just EDTA.
The preferred product for oral chelation is "Super Life Glow" by Vibrant Life. They have a great deal of information on their website, but here is how to buy their product: Another superb chelating item is a single-celled plant called chlorella. If you cannot get EDTA chelation as an I.V., chlorella is a very viable option. Dosage should start at 2 or 3 grams a day, and slowly build up to the maximum dosage recommended by the vendor. The build-up is to avoid diarrhea. Observe the maximum dosage on the bottle because chlorella contains vitamin K. It should not be taken with blood thinners or in high doses except for very short periods of time (such as the day you get your dental amalgam removed). If a person has their dental amalgam removed from their teeth (which is a nice thing to do, but is not required for the elderly), a great deal of mercury will be released by the dentist removing the mercury. A person should eat 20 or 30 grams of chlorella (do not have the dental surgery before you build up to these doses) both BEFORE and AFTER the surgery, to chelate the high amounts of mercury being released. This dosage is obviously for a very short amount of time and something else should be used if the patient is on blood thinners.
Mike Adams has evaluated many vendors of spirulina (another algae) and chlorella. Here is the page with his recommended vendors for both: Other chelators of heavy metals include: organic germanium, alpha lipoic acid, and NAC (N-acetyl-L-cysteine). Eating apples will also help. There are additional links at the bottom of this page.
Getting The Good Fats Into the BrainA discovery made by Johanna Budwig, which is frequently used in cancer treatments and in Type II diabetes treatments, is the best way to get the good fats into the brain. First of all, REMOVE ALL BAD FATS FROM YOUR DIET!!! This includes removing trans-fatty acids (i.e. partially hydrogenated oils) and most saturated fats from animals (saturated fats from plants are good). Any fat cooked at high termerature should also be avoided (e.g. corn oil, vegetable oils, etc.). These things are critical to avoid!! Next you need to buy some high quality, LIQUID omega-3 supplements. Here are some good examples: 1) Barlean's Highest Lignan Content Flax Oil, for high ratio omega-3 to omega-6, which must be refrigerated. 2) Udo's Choice Oil Blend (purchased in the refrigerated section at Whole Foods) for omega-3, omega-6 and omega-9, 3) Carlson Fish Oil (Omega-3's DHA and EPA), to make sure the patient gets more omega-3s than omega 6s AND to get the long-chain omega-3s, These are the key supplements. The ideal situation would be to get most of the omega 3 from items 1 and 2 above, but to also mix in some Carlson Fish Oil to get the long-chain omega 3s. It is critical to mix one or more of these oils with some organic cottage cheese (best choice!), organic yogurt or skim milk. Actually, and this is very important, the organic cottage cheese, organic yogurt or skim milk and your source of omega 3 should be thoroughly mixed together before eating. This combination and mixing will convert the oil soluable omega 3 into water soluable omega 3. So here is how you need to take your omega 3 supplements. To make "one bowl" mix 2 tablespoons of the omega 3 oils mentioned above (or a combination of them) with 1 cup of organic cottage cheese or 3 cups of organic yogurt (or 5 cups of skim milk). Mix them together for a couple of minutes and let it sit for a couple of more minutes. This will convert the omega 3 from oil soluable to water soluable. At this point you can sprinkle in some cinnamon and add some fruits or other things to meet your taste requirements. Eat one or two bowls of this every day!! This means you will get 2 or 4 tablespoons of high quality water soluable omega-3 every day. Remember to shake the bottle of oil each time before you use it. Because the Budwig Diet is used for cancer treatments, some of the main sources of information about the Budwig Diet come from cancer articles and cancer websites.
Here are more details on the Budwig Diet:
Here is a detailed article on how to make the Budwig mixture:
Here is the ultimate guru on the Budwig Diet:
Vibe (liquid), by EnivaA liquid ionic vitamin/mineral supplement that has been used for cancer treatments for the past few years has been showing dramatic and fast results among those who already have dementia. The product is called Vibe, a liquid supplement, by a company called Eniva. It is making significant changes in mental clarity within a matter of days. The suggested dose is 1/2 ounce for 2 days, 3/4 ounce for 3 days, 1 ounce for 3 days, then level off at 2 ounces a day. Within 2 weeks there should be a significant change. After a few weeks the patient should be able to maintain their condition on one ounce a day. I have to think that the combination of 1 ounce of Vibe every day, combined with 2 ounces of Tahitian Noni Juice (yes, use that brand!) would be a very potent maintenance plan!!
Here is a Vibe liquid vendor:
Other Oxygen TherapiesSurprisingly, there are other ways to get oxygen into the brain in most cases.
