How To Treat Alzheimer Naturally.

Alzheimer's is a type of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking and behavior.

The number of people diagnosed with the debilitating Alzheimer’s disease is on the rise.

Alzheimer's is a progressive disease, where dementia symptoms gradually worsen over a number of years. 

In its early stages, memory loss is mild, but with late-stage Alzheimer's, individuals lose the ability to carry on a conversation and respond to their environment.

As Alzheimer's advances through the brain it leads to increasingly severe symptoms, including disorientation, mood and behavior changes; deepening confusion about events, time and place; unfounded suspicions about family, friends and professional caregivers; more serious memory loss and behavior changes; and difficulty speaking, swallowing and walking.

People with memory loss or other possible signs of Alzheimer’s may find it hard to recognize they have a problem.

Alzheimer's is not just a disease of old age. Up to 5 percent of people with the disease have early onset Alzheimer's (also known as younger-onset), which often appears when someone is in their 40s or 50s.

It is estimated that by the year 2050 about 14 million people will be living with that condition.

Recently, researchers from Britain and Canada have created super-intelligent mice by altering a single gene to block the phosphodiesterase-4B (PDE4B) enzyme.

They hope the discovery may help the search for treatments for disorders such as Alzheimer's, schizophrenia and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Till they reach an effective treatment for dementia ,there are no pharmaceutical options available to treat, halt or reverse the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease.

Drugs being created now are made to reduce the amyloid plaques, made from a protein called Amyloid B (AB) that build up on the brain. These are a trademark of the disease.

However, other studies have revealed that small clumps of AB call oligomers appear years before the plaques even start to develop.

The molecular structure of these oligomers is very different from AB.

Further, they found that drugs designed to destroy amyloid plaques have no effect on oligomers.

This could explain why experimental Alzheimer’s drugs have failed; they are focused on plaques, not their precursor, oligomers.

Some brain cells may have a difficult time using glucose  the brain’s main source of energy.

Without this fuel, neurons begin to die.

An alternative energy source for brain cells is fats, known as ketones. When the body is deprived of carbohydrates, it naturally produces ketones.

Most people however can’t cut carbohydrates out of the body altogether, and in many respects this can be unhealthy.

So another way to produce ketones is by consuming oils made from medium-chain triglycerides.

MCT is an oil that is made from coconut and palm oil.

When MCT oil is metabolized, ketones, which are created by the

body, not only protect against Alzheimer’s but may also reverse the symptoms.

This is also a potential treatment for Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, type 2diabetes and multiple and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

The ketones actually last for eight hours in the body when coconut oil is used versus three when the synthetic version is used.

The benefits of organic coconut oil are remarkable.

Always use high quality Extra Virgin Unrefinedand Organic Coconut Oil.
