what is the relation between diet and lifestyle and Alice I’m Alice homers disease and why is the age of Alzheimers occurring at younger and younger ages it’s pretty well accepted in the scientific literature that the major risk factors for heart disease are also the same major risk factors for dementia and Alice’s all types of dementia particularly Alzheimer’s disease so we’re talking about if you eat a diet that increases your risk of having a heart attack and you don’t have a heart attack you you’re losing mental function and you get in you’re promoting Alzheimers but all Americans are losing intelligence as they age which is not natural in other words they’re losing from multiple reasons their their circulation is being impaired and Circular lack of blood flow of the brain decreases your intelligence and they’re exposing themselves to spikes of glucose and insulin from the high sugar diet and the high spikes of insulin destroys brain cells and weakens the brain and predispose you to depression and mental illness as well and the and of course the high cholesterol and the inflammation the oxidized LDL and the exposure to toxins all these there’s all the factors that just slowly destroy your health destroy the brain simultaneously even more so because the brain doesn’t produce its own antioxidants like muscle tissue can the brain requires a continual supply of phytochemicals to defend itself from your life stresses of your life and it requires rest and and so the we put tremendous stress on our brain and it’s no wonder that people don’t even get demented even earlier and it’s no wonder that we’re seeing it at earlier age and we’re seeing earlier ages of strokes and we’re seeing earlier age of memory loss and intelligence and lack of concentration people having to retire early and if you want to get into a good money-making business you can open up a nursing home for people who have had strokes between the ages of 40 and 65 that don’t go into the regular nursing homes because we have more more people having strokes at younger ages – to make a point on this in my book longevity I wrote about 20 years ago at that point the the top man in the world doing research on brain degradation was up at Harvard and what was stunning to me is one of the first genes probably the first gene that was established as this is what you look like when you have Alzheimer’s or dementia he was seeing centurions 100 year old people that literally didn’t have dementia and had that classic gene but what did he do he noted that these people were social reading every single day that they were using their brain with crossword puzzles there was a wide variety thinks a diet is a part of this equation but not the whole thing today I joked about it like my talk with you when people are Rekluse they have more dementia when people lose a wife or lose a husband they may have been lucid fantastic out doing a job lose a husband within a year they have signs of memory loss dementia and Alzheimer’s and what’s scary is that my generation the baby boom generation they estimate that 25 percent of us are going to have this you have any millions of people globally we’re talking about and if my generation is going to have that God forbid what’s the children going to have who are eating these horrible foods and by the way using computers which lower IQ now we’re clear on that computer use on a regular basis lowers IQ it doesn’t increase your intelligence I just want to say one quick thing I don’t necessarily you know I don’t necessarily think that those are major factors compared to the dietary factors number one but number two think about this for a minute if you eat the way other Americans eat then you placing your loved ones in your family with the responsibility of caring for you in your later years when you become demented and sick it’s not fair to other people it’s not free to put your to have other people have to care for you and run and ruin their life and stress out their life because you abused your body with food take great care of your health because you take care of yourselves but you’re also doing the best for your family and your loved one because you can are being self-sufficient and sent caring for yourself and not become a burden on them in your later years

why do I guest got a call from home and her mom said dad was just diagnosed with Alzheimer and she said what can we do what it you know what can I send to them and what can I say and you know I said you know I call that diabetes type three because it’s actually the hippocampus that makes insulin to take care of their the glucose frequency the energy of glucose in your brain and when that goes down you have a big problem and she said it was funny because my dad has diabetes type two and so so what we did we made a schedule between of course vitamin D Omega 3 b12 we have a product called conscious brain that really gets going even our son who’s in college says like semi conscious brain and two weeks later he was sitting doing crosswords so you know they could see the difference and so you never take no for an answer and you know it has to do with the proteins that you ingesting that actually spikes your insulin much more than all the sugars and so remember that it’s the animal-based foods that is the biggest culprit of this and not being active not being social and you know all of the things that we’ve talked about it’s a big big part but you know your brain makes insulin you actually take care of that part in the brain by itself and your pancreas takes care of the rest of the body so it’s very important that we have a balance between the sugars you know glucose is the energy source of all the foods in all the foods when we for example drink our green drink 90% is carbohydrates where those carbohydrates carbohydrates there’s pasta carbohydrates are there is green during carbohydrates that turns to simple sugars so your body’s getting all the glucose that it’s need and a lot of people come to our Institute with blood sugar problem diabetes of course diabetes type 1 type 2 lot of people are on metformin they’re on in Celyn and they have to lower one guy was just coming in three weeks ago he became with sixty units even down to seven units in three weeks he lost 30 pounds his cholesterol dropped 120 pounds it’s a no-brainer but of course it’s very good if you do it under supervision you know like at the Institute or with dr. jewel and you know with people that actually knows how to get you there but there’s a lot of information in our books and everybody’s books here that really can help you to of interest I just think it’s on the similar surface of what you bring up is that number one the type two diabetics can the vast majority over 90 percent can become non diabetic in a short period of time which is essential and the type 1 diabetics who still require insulin can reduce their insulin needs by two-thirds and it’s the excess insulin they take that causes them to get leg amputations and blindness and kidney failure and heart attacks at the aid before the age of 60 and dementia and dementia and depression of course they become depressed so it’s this excess insulin that’s shorten your life span so a type 1 diabetes diabetic doesn’t have to have a shortened life span which high morbidity and mortality if they eat a healthy diet they begin to require very little insulin they don’t get the highs and lows furthermore I’ve been lucky enough to care for people with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetics in their childhood and I’ve had reversal I have numerous children who came to me early on when they were first diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and they no longer have type 1 diabetes because they caught it with caught it early enough exactly and I’m putting I’m putting that out shortly in an ethically research at the case study list of all the children who have gotten rid of the type 1 diabetes completely showing with the blood test the islet cell antibodies and all the AI that show them that they reversed it completely and I waited two years and years to get to make the collection to make sure I followed them to enough years to make sure they were totally gone from having type 1 maybe you have enough that you should do a book on that because that’s the one thing that nobody touches well I do up I did mention some of that in the my book the end of diabetes but not it’s mostly about type 2 yeah but could you imagine if everyone in the call the doctors in the country whenever they got to die a type 1 diabetes kid diagnosed rapidly put him on a healthy diet see what percent of him these people could change meek developing type 1 this is something nobody’s even thinking about I know not even they don’t touch it yeah fantastic so a German study about 40 years ago already got onto the gluten and they found that if you have diabetes one or two you are absolutely gluten gluten allergy you shouldn’t even come near gluten so that was a big big factor I just wanted to share an experience I had I was at in Lithuania teaching at the medical school in speaking at their annual Life dialect style medicine conference and I met a young man who was about 21 years of age and he had an experience where he was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 15 years of age and was in intensive care and his mum you know completely freaked out that he was all of a sudden type 1 diabetic and she you I’m sure you yeah and and she started him on a raw food diet right away right as he was in the hospital and when I met him he was 21 he completely reversed his his diabetes and he’s still six years later a completely diabetes free and still on the raw food diet so this is like dr. Fuhrman was saying – this is not something that is on the radar at all of mainstream medicine so I think it alternative medicine it’s true we you know the the the sort of though all thinking is that once beta cells are destroyed they’re dead they’re dead that’s it whereas I think there’s a possibility and you would build that that during the first few weeks they’re actually sleeping and and hibernating and and that if if you reduce the inflammation and so on and and get the immune system working properly that you you can actually bring them back there’s a I don’t know if you call it a you know sort of honeymoon period or whatever against the pancreas beta cells and show that the antibodies overtime slowly go down you know and I’ve tracked them for years and see that they’re still elevated but they’re going down and down and down and there and so the pancreas is recovering and the activity of the autoimmune attack on the pancreas is slowly diminishing what we should do you you and the Institute all of us all four of the city we should do a study we should put out a message worldwide and basically ask for new diagnosed type one diabetes and run 30 40 of them I’d be more than happy to house him at the Institute and do the work it’s it would be really important to do this talk about that more it would be great to do that
