The ReCODE Protocol for Reversing Alzheimer’s: The Anti-Alzheimer’s Diet, Ep. 016

After my father was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s Disease in 2018, we started on this journey of intense research, investigation and reaching out to multiple doctors. We were open to any one and anything that could help him. Early research was tough until I found the work of Dr. Dale Bredesen and the Bredesen Protocol.

In the last several videos, we’ve been talking about Dr. Bredesen’s first book, published in 2017, that had served as the first playbook for my dad: The End of Alzheimer’s: The First Program to Prevent and Reverse Cognitive Decline. We’ve specifically been talking about the ReCODE Protocol, which he details in the book. ReCODE for Reversal of Cognitive Decline, which is a personalized protocol that addresses multiple factors contributing to someone’s cognitive issues, bringing them back to optimal ranges and helping patients reverse disease and symptoms. Dr. Bredesen’s team has helped hundreds of people reverse their cognitive decline, established mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s Disease with this protocol, as evidenced in successful studies in 2014, 2018, 2022 and current clinical trials.

Today we’re getting into arguably the most important program within the protocol, which pertains to DIET.

In episode 14, we talked about how Dr. Bredesen had found that most of his patients had some form of Insulin Resistance. Insulin Resistance promotes cognitive decline and for the best cognitive function, we’ll need the opposite of it: Insulin Sensitivity. He found that patients that had the best results on the protocol all restored or improved their insulin sensitivity.

Dr. Bredesen’s team formulated a dietary program, based on very good research, that promoted insulin sensitivity, minimized inflammation, reduced obesity, improved cardiovascular status, helped optimize hormonal response, and thus improved cognition.

Love the way you simplify and summarize and get rapidly to the point, no rambling! Thank you!

Thank you. You now have a new subscriber.

all plants are carbs...maybe some low car veggies, but really meat is the best...even carnivore...not all plant based, that will raise sugar levels

[pattischmitz]

Does this protocol work for different types of dementia? Thank you!

[evacarolinulmer]

Is this specifically for Alzheimer's or for all forms of demencia?

Your presentation is good but I think that if you slow down a bit as you speak we can process the information. Our brains are not all as young and sharp as yours evidently is.
