Yesterday my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and prescribed the medication for that and told she can no longer drive. She is 74 and took three jabs. My sister and I saw her quickly decline and become forgetful, brain fog some days, but some days were fine. Her father died age 92 and suffered from the same diagnosis but much later in his life. I’m still processing this and what it means for her life span and it’s quite difficult. any words from anyone who experienced this would be appreciated, thank you
My dad (84) has what I believe to be dementia or Alzheimer's, he refuses to be screened. He has brain fog, forgetfulness, is always angry, has severe depression, and in his words, he thinks it is time to die. Watching all of this is killing me. I too am suffering from severe depression and hopelessness, frustration and anger, which has led to anxiety, grief, digestion and sleep issues He took two jabs back when they first came out, despite me begging, pleading, crying, and trying everything to stop him. I don't feel guilty any more but am still so angry I could not stop him. His condition has most certainly worsened since then. Definitely. Neither parent of his had memory issues.
So for lifespan, I can't say. And certainly everyone is different so your mom might fare very well. I wish I could help more, and again, I am so sorry.
Magnolia and FourWinds, I am committing to praying for you daily. There is hope! Look up! The ancedote for fear is NOT courage, it is faith! Lean on the One who loves us beyond measure. I pray that both of you will find the help you need to navigate the situations you find yourselves in. He is our only hope. I love you both!
Thank you for this link, Maggie…, just listened to this lovely song of praise. Coincidentally, the next song up was a song with the same title by Cody Johnson. Lately, I stop everything and listen when Cody Johnson sings. I love his melodious voice and, as a country music fan, I think he’s the best singer of country that I’ve heard in a long time. Thank you again. Jesus lives!
Four Winds i especially relate to where you’ve been. I just lost my Mom at 84 after a stroke and dementia; she refused to see a neurologist after a bad fall years ago. The last couple years her behavior seemed similar to your Dad’s; always negative, angry, combative. The last couple months we had her in an afc home and they kept trying different meds on her that i ultimately had to approve so they wouldn’t kick her out.
As her patient advocate since 2020, i kept her safe from Covid and she never got the jab. I’m proud of that but still have guilt over all the meds at the end even though i know she had no quality of life and it was actually a blessing that she finally slipped away.
It’s disturbing so many people are getting dementia these days whether as a result of brain injuries, pharmaceuticals, or environmental factors. I’m still trying to make sense of it all so i don’t have huge words of wisdom, but please know that you and Magnolia are not alone. 💛
Thank you, I really appreciate your response. I'm sorry you lost your mom.
This is shameful to admit and I struggle with it daily: I love my dad so much and don't want him to die, as he is the last family I have that I am somewhat close with, but at the same time, it is clear he wants to leave this world. There is a part of me that will be relieved because he won't be in pain any more. But then that makes me feel guilty and terrible. It's kind of a no win scenario.
FourWinds - I believe we in America (especially we 'boomers') were brought up in the "Disney world" time warp - the "zippedy doo dah" philosophy about life. Well....DEATH is part of LIFE and perhaps we need to embrace that reality and not be afraid of it. Just like 'machines' that are wornweary and ready for the "junkyard"....our bodies are NOT eternal - only our SOULS and when we give our souls to the Lord Jesus Christ - DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY. So do NOT feel "guilty" when you guide your father into the doorway to eternity - he will be SO OVERJOYED meeting his Savior face to face!!! Hold his hand as he travels into the REAL WORLD and you will rejoice, knowing that when you next see your father--both of you will be WHOLE and FILLED WITH OUR CREATOR'S 'AGAPE' LOVE--the most PURE LOVE OF ALL!
How to disentangled from conflicting thoughts? Very difficult to place into words ... that all burdens are not our burden to sort out. But when I finally had come to see the impossibility of being 'the arbiter and decider of all things', I just threw up my arms into the air and turned it all over to God. Because there was no other choice. (Matthew 11:28 ... and that is the one of 'ye who are heavily burdened, come to me and I will give rest'. And I ignored that one all of my early life!)
How strange it is, at least by my lights, that the best torturers of ourselves is our own self. And the strangeness is that my torturing of myself only lifted once I gave up on being all things, understanding that for better or worse I can be no more than what God made me to be ... and this in my very little, small daily life. Anything else is futility, anguish and suffering.
I cannot "like" these Comments because I have serious concerns for my sons--both of whom have been jabbed and boosted (even though I shared GOOD INFO from Dr. Kory and Dr. McCullough over the past 3 years with them.
DO GET HELP caring for your loved ones who are "sliding into mental oblivion" - you cannot do it "alone". If you have a church family--go to your pastor and request help to care for your loved ones. "Respite care" daily is recommended for YOU so you are refreshed from the extreme energy sap this cognitive decline wreaks on caregivers!!
I see there are some recommendations below by a "Comment" today from FLORIDATRANSPLANT for some NATURAL/HOLISTIC treatments for cognitive decline/clinical depression. Read Florida Transplant's Comment - it's one of the main reasons that I continue to check in with the C & C "Army" daily - the TRULY HELPFUL recommendations and also Biblical references (especially from Janice).
JEHOVAH JIREH - God DOES provide just what we NEED!!!
Father had this and passed in 2019 before any shots. It is very hard to deal with, not gonna lie. That last Father's Day with him he didn’t know who I was. Lost his wife, my mom, of 65 years a few months before from heart disease. Who knew we’d all be grateful they died before the covid madness so we could be with them at the end. We all greeted 2020 with so much optimism after the awful prior year of losing them both. Well look how that turned out!!
Seek out Ryan Holliday's Daily Stoic and advise on stoicism. I have for the past ~2 months, and it is helping me deal with my anger with the insanity in the world and in too many people I know.
Why did you ever feel guilty, and why feel angry now that you couldn't stop your dad from self-destructing? I thought anti-vaxxers (the ones like me anyway) believe in freedom of choice. That includes the choice to follow the doctor's advice. For her last 15 years or so, my mom, who recently died at 100, would be prescribed meds that immediately harmed her mentally and physically. Statins and BP meds mostly. My wife and I would point out what was happening, she'd stop taking them, and improve. She'd have a doctor's appointment, be back on the same meds, and the cycle would repeat. We never felt the least bit guilty, why would we? Angry at the doctors, sure, but not angry at her choices - that's her being her. You can't fix stupid and gullible. You can only try to help.
Maybe look into iodine supplementation (Dr. Brownstein) and in general BHRT? I have Hashimoto (a thyroid auto immune disorder) and I know issues with your thyroid can cause all manner of illness including depression. It’s worth checking out. All the best to you and yours!
While I can appreciate that you’ve sought out top sleep doctors around the world, they are equally as brainwashed and captured by pig pharma/maintream idiology, etc. Sleep is extremely important but so is getting out in nature and getting natural vitamin D during the day.
While it’s a small amount of melatonin, if you’re getting enough sunlight/vitamin D during the day, you shouldn’t need melatonin and I don’t recommend taking it on a regular basis. It’s a hormone that your body naturally produces and by taking additional amounts you’re messing with your hormones.
Magnesium is super important but please don’t take Calm. Most of the Calm products are using Magnesium citrate which is the cheapest form and least helpful in terms of helping one sleep. That’s why if you take too much you get 💩💩 you want a high quality magnesium glycinate. I would personally look for pill form… Calm flavors have tons of natural flavoring which is actually not natural at all. It also has stevia which I personally am not a fan.
I’m shocked this hasn’t been mentioned but exercise! Even if it’s just walking outside for 30-45 min a day it’s so so important and helps with depressing and sleep 10x over.
And lastly make sure you’re eating a healthy diet. Try and cut out as much processed foods as possible. Lots of protein, veggies and fruit. Limit your sugar intake.
See my comment about limiting time on all devices…getting the TV and devices out of the bedroom…and yes I recommend magnesium glycinate …take it every night! Also not everyone lives where the sun shines in the winter…then Vitamin D3 supplementation is in order.
I was told years ago by a naturopath that glycinate is better for anxiety and sleep while citrate is much better for constipation. I hope that's accurate because the gummies I use for my kids' severe constipation is citrate specifically for that reason. I swear, it can be so hard to get a straight answer sometimes. If anyone here knows of a much better form for constipation, please let me know.
Another thing that helps constipation (and pretty much everything else in the body) is proper hydration. Huge subject, but Dr Dana Cohen wrote a wonderful book called "Quench" that sums it all up for laypeople. It is a great mix of theory & practical action steps. I no longer suffer from dry eye because of her advice. (She's also done a few podcasts if you prefer video format).
A spoonful of Avocado oil on an empty stomach every morning will make regular in about 3-4 days... You can try olive oil, but I rather like avocado since it has a very mild taste.
Agreed about Magnesium. Best choices are the one you mentioned, and Magnesium L-Threonate, which crosses the blood brain barrier. We take both. In fact, turns out I don't absorb magnesium very well, so I take liposomal Magnesium L- Threonate gel in a packet.
Yes, also a great choice! There are actually 5-6 different types of Magnesium and they all have different focuses and help in different areas. But most multi-vitamins that include Magnesium typically include citrate because it's the cheapest - but it's also doing nothing to help you.
This is so interesting--your advice reminds me of Thomas Aquinas' "prescription" for combatting depression: a good meal, followed by a hot bath, followed by a nap.
Yes. Go outside just after sunrise, in mid day, and just before sunset for a few minutes, so your brain knows the time of day. More natural light, less time indoors with artificial light. It helps.
Andrew Huberman has done great podcasts on this. He says there are four things you need for your sleep cycle to be straigtened out: morning sunlight (colors of the sunrise) in your eyes; sunlight from the afternoon/evening sunset (the colored light is important again); as much sunlight as possible during the day; and as much darkness as possible at night. Of course, you don't look directly at the sun, but you must be outside. I also wear blue-light blocking glasses in the evening, and it seems to help. I highly recommend Huberman's website and podcasts.
I used to live in Washington just east of Seattle. None of those things would be possible except for three months in summer. The rest of the year you’ll be lucky to see a short glimpse of sun once a day. Probably why the state leads in suicide and serial killers….it’s real. After 18 years of it, we were finally able to move to a much sunnier place and the difference is huge!!!!! I sleep so much better now and my mood has improved!
Vitamin D, sunlight and exercise are also good for depression. I used to get 'the wintertime blues' and started taking Vit D during winter months. No more problems. It also boosts the immune system as we all know, so I rarely get sick and have never had the flu.
Yes take Vitamin D3 in the winter because many people do not live where the sun shines in the winter! (I live in sunny SoCA and I still take D3 everyday.)
I have a naturopath physician friend who has advised her patients not to use CALM for several years now (I used to, and still have a jar of it in my pantry). Research magnesium supplements through a better source, such a Fullscript, or The Wellness company. You can make a Fullscript account for free and follow Dr. DiNicolantonio or Dr. Mark McDonald (Dissident MD substack) for really good protocols for sleep, depression, etc. but check with a doctor who knows supplementation - it's usually not your PCP, I'm sorry to say.
There are many different types of magnesium and it is beneficial to take a blend of types -- (citrate, glycinate and malate, not just citrate) and a brand that is excellent is Professional Formula's Magnesium complex. PF is a privately owned company not bought out by big corp or pharma https://professionalformulas.com/pf-values/
I have found out recently that a lot of supplement companies have been bought out by Big Pharma. They continue on their wretched path of controlling how we take care of our health without them. I just read an article by Dr. Edward Group. Very informing. Now I know what to look for in nutraceuticals.
At some point in time maybe 20+ years ago, Big Pharma using the arm of the government must have felt too many people were using supplements instead of prescription pills. They went after the supplement industry and imposed regulations on them including a restriction on stating what various supplements would benefit. I didn't realize that BP went into buying supplement companies as well. I'm so disgusted with BP in general.
I looked at the Truth About Cancer site and there's some interesting reading on it.
I actually printed it off of "The Truth About Cancer" website. You can probably pull it up on their site. The article is entitled, "Are The Supplements You're taking Toxic?"
excellent advice, I have been using just calm for over 20 yrs, works great. Also use in conjunction a product called "resurge", it has magnesium, zinc, L arginine, l-lysine hydrochloride, ashwaganda root, l-thinine, 5-htp and melatonin. If you use google or duck duck it will tell you the site is unsafe. It is not, been using this product since the plandemic, it keeps my mind from racing. Follow the directions on the bottle. The L ingredience are amino acids that your body makes.
Good advice for sleep, and, yes - take B vitamins in the morning. The sleep aids you suggest are a great alternative to toxic Rx and over the counter drugs. The irony is that folks with insomnia often take stuff with the antihistamine called diphenhydramine (think: Tylenol PM, Zzyquil, Benadryl, etc.); products which have been available over the counter for many years now. Drugs such as these damage the brain and cause poor and permanent cognitive impairment. These drug-induced sleeps aren’t natural; they don’t allow the brain to do it’s overnight healing.
Thanks! My practice over the years has been and remains to eschew the drug store entirely. Only eat simple, natural foods. And since C19 ... the few vitamins my wife puts out for me.
This good information ... and I hope some young people see this and take it to heart.
Another 2 things that help with sleep taken with magnesium are inositol powder and glycine powder, mixed in water before bed. I am now sleeping in 5 hour stretches instead of waking up every night at 3 a.m.
I’ll have to look up his Substack from what I remember the blue light especially after sundown prohibit your body from making the melatonin that it needs. something to that effect.
Also, LED lights with their incessant flickering are very bad for us. It’s really crazy that incandescent lightbulbs are no longer available considering the danger that LED lights pose.
I am afraid it was GW Bush who signed the death warrant for the incandescent bulb. Ostensibly for the same reason that your utility company likely offers rebates for, or even free replacements of, old appliances - it is cheaper to diminish demand than increase supply.
When I take a hot bath like to mentioned it keeps me up. For my sister it puts her to sleep. Dr Jack Kruse who is a neurosurgeon says everything comes down to circadian rhythm, see the sunrise and sunset and avoid blue light. Everything is blue light so recommendations are blue light blocking glasses, etc. Way more to it then that and he is hard to follow (for me anyway) Maria Menounos has a pod case with her naturopath on who explains it in english for me...lol Heal Squad is her podcase and episode 808 and 817.
Thank you! I have had terrible luck with melatonin - it actually makes my depression worse. However, maybe 5 mg was too much. I'll check into the lower dose. Thanks again!
Also, I already use CALM. Excellent product and tasty on top of that. :)
Just an FYI, when my wife saw Dr. Tennant, he told her to move from 10 mg a night of melatonin to 100 mg. Yep, you read that right, and if there is a better holistic Doctor in the world than him, I'd like to know.
A lot of people take high dose melatonin during day, not just at bed.. Supposed to be good for cancer as well as protective of body during scans. The high dose Melatonin is different from the 3 mg, 5 mg , 10mg people are taking at night....so they say....lol
The normal dosage is nuts, as other people have pointed out.
If I take one of those 3mg tablets and scrape a barely visible crumb from it, even just that crumb works to get me to sleep. Still disturbs my dreams though.
All good tips…also no devices or TV for a good hour or two before going to bed. And if you have a TV in your bedroom get it outta there! The Bedroom is for sleeping and other activities! 😉 Listen to calming or meditative music that puts positive energy into your psyche!
Sorry for you and yours - my wife (76) has been through the very same experience. The doctor is worthless - just drugs that have no effect whatsoever. I'm now frantically trying to put together a treatment focusing on nutrition, etc.
Adding to Don’s post, I also recommend finding a doctor who will work on treating what could be vaccine damage, but also treating the memory issues naturally. These treatments can work; I’ve seen it work in a friend who developed alarming memory issues and the treatments (supplements mostly) actually reversed it. Look into coconut oil too. I drive an hour to a clinic that has such doctors; it has been worth it the drive and the money … insurance often does not cover natural medicine.
There is a great website put together by a woman MD, Dr. Mary Newport, whose husband Steve developed early-onset Alzheimers at about age 50.
She found that the medium-chain triglycerides in coconut oil had a healing effect on his brain. One Tablespoon, 3X a day. It sounds very simplistic but true. There is so much information and videos on this site. Amazing. Dr. Newport was a practicing Neonatologist in Florida where she still lives.
Becky - yes. Tragically, insurance doesn’t cover what is, in my opinion, the best treatments. I only see a functional medicine doctor…never again will I use a ‘regular’ allopathic physician (well, except for a broken ankle, which happened to me last October). What a racket with the pharmaceutical industry, insurance carriers and medical providers…they steer folks toward harmful treatments, because insurance covers them.
Agree completely. We are in the process of transitioning to a sort of but not concierge care, where we pay $100 each per month (less if you aren't a geezer) and no further payments for telemedicine or house visits. They have no office. The best part of that is that they now have an incentive to keep you healthy. This will compete the process of moving to 100 % non allopathic Rockefeller paractitioners. I encourage everyone to do the same if you value your health. More expensive leaving insurance behind? Sure. But what price your health, without which, what's left?
We're doing the same thing with our concierge doctor. No talk about vaxxes or masks, ever. She's an Integrative Health doctor. We pay $150/month for a family plan, which comes out of our FSA. I consider it a good use of funds.
since leaving Richmond, the great majority of my doctor, eye doctor, dermatologist , and dentist appointments have been out of town, 2 1/2 hours most times, each way, and now, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. My opinion is if you need to see nay of those professionals, you may as well go to the people to see you once to diagnose or treat you.
Those are on my list - plus ivermectin and a few supplements reputedly effective in treating/reversing dementia - I don't have my list handy or I would provide more details. Thanks for taking an interest!
MOMinator - may I ask abt the silica rich water? I have used Diatomaceous Earth (heaping tap) in my coffee when I have issues with my gut - I do wonder though "Is this healthy and safe?! Any thoughts? Thank you!
There’s also a book by Dennis Crouse PhD, examining the benefits of silica water in Alzheimer’s. He was to reverse some of his mom’s symptoms with Fiji water.
I’m sorry, I don’t know much, or anything really, about diatomaceous earth. I did a search that mentioned it was rich in silica. May I suggest asking this exact question on Christopher Exley’s substack (any article, people ask questions in the comments all the time, he answers them too)
I’ll keep an eye out though, and come back if anything of interest comes up! :)
We have not yet started the protocol I'm working on putting together. My understanding is that, to some extent not well understood, dementia MAY be caused by some sort of fungus and that is why ivermectin MAY reverse dementia. I will email you when I have more to say.
I don't know abt fungus dementia - but I am struggling (!!!) with recurrent fungal nasal infections! I am so tired of meds - last one - itraconazole I quit second round - my kidneys werr aching and still do after 3/4 of a year! I can't take high doses of vitamin C (it causes cold sores - mouth, nose, even corners of my eyes! Ouch!)
Would IBM be helpful for fungal sinus infection? I am struggling with the beginning of another oneI have 12 mg IVM, but havent taken - with kidneys hurting I don't want to take anything unless I really believe it would be helpful! Thanks.
VelvetStitching - also consider checking out, on YouTube, Bulletproof nasal rinse (the video with a guy wearing a puffy vest). I also had chronic sinus infections and fungal stuff. This method really gets deep into the sinuses much better than a Neti pot).
I've read that as well and think the IVM might be helpful anyway just from an angle of reducing spike protein attachment to ACE and other pathways it may be helpful with detoxing from the vax. You must be a 2SG reader as well perhaps?? Again best of luck.
I posted this in a different spot. Important, so it bears repeating, re coconut oil:
There is a great website put together by a woman MD, Dr. Mary Newport, whose husband Steve developed early-onset Alzheimers at about age 47.
She found that the medium-chain triglycerides in coconut oil had a healing effect on his brain. One Tablespoon, 3X a day. It sounds very simplistic but true. There is so much information and videos on this site. Amazing. Dr. Newport was a practicing Neonatologist in Florida where she still lives.
I think we are all learning the hard way to not rely on doctors and instead seek alternative "nutritional" therapy. LifeExtension.com is a good place to find some information and a good place to start.
Coconut oil, red ginseng, lions mane mushroom. 🤷🏻♀️ You just throw everything at it and pray something works. Praying with you. We, and my mother are not vacxed but we are seeing mental slippage. Told hubby yesterday that a killing heart attack is the best way to go. It used to be the number one killer. What a blessing.
Honestly, you get used to it. I'm looking at 15 bottles that I take at one point or another during my day (only 2 are prescription--the rest are all supplements) and that doesn't count all the ones I have to take more than one pill from. But if you feel a lot better when you take them it makes a difference. I will admit to having days where I skip some or most of them in a fit of pique which is ok with all of them thank goodness. Not everything is safe to do that with which is why I prefer to be "dependent" on supplements--forgetting or skipping isn't harmful or fatal.
Keep in mind, a lot of supplements come in powdered or liquid form (they're generally much cheaper this way, also). You can just mix a bunch of them together in a few nasty-tasting gulps of water and be done with it. My pre-bedtime mix is currently magnesium chloride, diatomaceous earth, zinc, potassium chloride, MSM, and iodine in about 3 oz of water. I sleep better than I have in 40 years...usually for 8-9 hours per night.
Don, we lost our son to brain cancer at 16 years old and tried to save his life naturally. They killed him with a lie, but that's another story. We learned a TON about the brain and apply that to our life now and our other 3 children. I became a Juice Plus rep so we take the vegetable, fruit, berry, and omega capsules as a baseline for our now extremely healthy lifestyle. We eat organic food and skip all processed. The big deal is the oils and fats in your house. The brain thrives on healthy fat. So ditch anything that is NOT organic coconut oil (can use in high heat), avocado oil, but only the Chosen Brand, I think the rest aren't proven if they are truly avocado, and organic, extra virgin olive oil, we stick to brands from Italy and Greece. I know of a Doc who did an experiment on her husband who couldn't put his pants on anymore....she gave him 2 T of coconut oil per day and within two weeks, he was able to put his pants on again. I know....not a true scientific experiment, but you get the point. We no longer use MDs, and pay out of pocket for everything. One test we do every 6 months is HTMA...it's hair sample testing that gives info on all mineral and vitamin shortages in your body. I have a great functional gal in Idaho who tests for that and you just mail it in, she's amazing. You get a 20-page feedback on you, what you can do to help yourself, and a Zoom with her to guide you. You have my prayers and admiration for taking care of your wife and loving her well.
My mom and my aunt both have dementia. I was just reading about Methylene blue for the treatment of Alzheimer's and dementia. Maybe something worth looking into.
Earnestly and fervently praying for everyone afflicted with dementia and Alzheimer’s…especially when it is jab-related. My grandmother had three sisters—she and two of those sisters all came down with dementia…my grandmother lived with it for nearly 10 years before she passed. Now my aunt is starting to show signs of it, but I know she’s been vaxxed even though she takes HCQ for arthritis. I tried and begged and cajoled against the jabs but to no avail. My family “trusts their doctors”. To their doom.
No but she is taking a med for BP - and her BP went up right after her second jab. The dementia presented after the third jab (about 8-12 months ago) For her entire life she had very low (but safe) BP. There's no doubt in my mind that the rise in BP was a direct result of the jabs.
I use a natural product for my BP it is called BP NatRelief 11. It is a combination of herbs. I was turned on to it by my MD. I have been using it for years, taking 1 in the morning. Keeps my bp well controlled. Just so you know, the last 2 times I ordered they had a picture of the rat fauci on their web page. don't let it discourage you. The web site is www.natrelief.com. they are located in commuformia.
Very good - both are on my list. Also, ivermectin, benfothiamine, wasaba, turmeric, all of the B vits, bacopa, luteolin, multi-vits, NAC, acetyl-L-carnitine and possibly a few others. I'm still researching this subject.
didn't know Barbara O'Neil, so I looked her up. According to wikipedia, she is: "an Australian alternative medicine personality, known for promoting dangerous and unsupported alternative medical practices and ideas". Good enough for me!
My experience with the majority of the doctors, is that they basically just prescribe medication for any symptom. They appear beholden to big pharma and refuse to look at anything else. Of course, if they do they risk receiving the "Jeanette Breen treatment"
You may also want to look into copper and iodine supplementation...just about all of us are deficient in both, and they are both necessary for proper brain function. https://revealingfraud.com/ is a good place to start, Jason Hommel has tons of info on his website, you don't really need to buy the book, though it's nice to have everything in printed form.
I am going throught the same thing right now! My mom turned 80 last month. She has been slipping for years and she is not fun loving as she used to be, gets angry at me for nothing, forgets a lot, can't focus and doesn't want to. Deep things we talked about are gone.
However, I can still enjoy her company when I came to the conclusion that change must happen, and I am going to make the best of it. It is like mourning them before they go, but when they do, I think it will be easier to accept. I just want to keep her happy. She was and is a good mom to me. She is not vaxxed for covid or the flu but it happens to us anyway.
I forewarn you about the toxic dementia meds doctors commonly prescribe that do not help and make things worse. Look up the side effects. A very close friend's dad is on them and none of them make any difference and the doctor doesn't care. In her case, he won't go to bed and is up all night with sundowners eating and he is diabetic. She asked for something to help him sleep like diazapam but the doc refuses. At this point, he is so bad, it doesn't matter if he takes those dementia meds, but he needs to sleep. I'd leave that doc but it's not me...
I think a lot of meds like cholesterol actually cause this ailment.
The current drug, Aricept, is mostly ineffective but expensive. It may retard disease progression by a few months but when stopped one often sees an immediate drop in cognitive scores. The new one is absolutely WORTHLESS. It was fully approved by the FDA despite the unanimous objections of the advisory panel because of demonstrated lack of efficacy. It did nothing! In fact, the entire advisory panel resigned in protest. But like Remdesivir it is hugely expensive and Pharma knew it would be a trillion dollar cash cow for a growing problem. Talk about exploiting desperate people and their loved ones! The FDA is beyond corrupt. They are evil. But we knew that…….
So sorry. It's hard; I know, but not limited to jabbed people. Both of my parents died before the jab rollout. My father, moreso, experienced dementia. My comfort was that they were completing the full circle of life; coming into the world as helpless infants, maturing and growing with the help of their parents, then depending on us, their children, as they lost their faculties.
My father (83) is now in a memory care village. He has hooked up with a female resident and they each think the other is the deceased spouse. But they're mostly happy. Had my sister and I been able to intervene sooner, we would have used Dale bredesen's protocol. Indeed, when dad eats my sister's food (not institutional food), he really has a boost in cognition. I highly recommend reading bredesen's work and looking for a practitioner who can help. Cognitive decline can be slowed, sometimes even reversed.
I have heard that nicotine is helpful for Alzheimers (might also help covid/ covid vaccine effects), here is a linkhttps://www.wndu.com/content/news/The-good-side-of-nicotine-for-Alzheimers-patients-567810531.html, Dr. Ardis has information on this as well. https://thedrardisshow.com/. God Bless, maybe it will help.
I think Jeff ( not positive) may have addressed this at some point that a number of independent researchers are alarmed about the mRNA’s recently-discovered tendency to produce random misfolded proteins, which they worry is a recipe for dementia.
Ardis says Nicotine gum 10 min/day for a finite period. There may be some nausea. find out how exactly to do that.

Also, studies show that D3 assists brain function -

A study showed the spike protein caused cognitive decline in mice. But since the mRNA vax makes our cells into spike protein factories, well you can read between the lines. In fairness to the authors they didn't make the connection to the vax (though just about everyone I know who read the study did).
Melatonin is a popular therapeutic with relatively low toxicity. Its main market is for the treatment of sleep disorders. There are dosing strategies, side effects and QC issues but cannot make any personal recommendations as we all have different tolerances and medical & drug histories.36

Regarding spike-induced damage to the mitochondria, we have a good ally: melatonin.
This article was written by Dr. Russell Reiter, the leading expert on melatonin.
Melatonin is uncommonly effective in reducing oxidative stress under a remarkably large number of circumstances. It achieves this action via a variety of means: direct detoxification of reactive oxygen and reactive nitrogen species and indirectly by stimulating antioxidant enzymes while suppressing the activity of pro-oxidant enzymes.
melatonin also reportedly chelates transition metals, which are involved in the Fenton/Haber–Weiss reactions; in doing so, melatonin reduces the formation of the devastatingly toxic hydroxyl radical resulting in the reduction of oxidative stress.
Melatonin's ubiquitous but unequal intracellular distribution, including its high concentrations in mitochondria, likely aid in its capacity to resist oxidative stress and cellular apoptosis. There is credible evidence to suggest that melatonin should be classified as a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant.
Experimental findings also indicate that melatonin renders treatment-resistant cancers sensitive to various therapeutic agents and may be useful, due to its multiple antioxidant actions, in especially delaying and perhaps treating a variety of >>> age-related diseases and dehumanizing conditions. <<<
Melatonin has been effectively used to combat oxidative stress, inflammation and cellular apoptosis and to restore tissue function in a number of human trials; its efficacy supports its more extensive use in a wider variety of human studies. The uncommonly high-safety profile of melatonin also bolsters this conclusion.
Im so sorry for your mom but I have read about ways to reverse Alzheimers and Dementia which are not the same. I saw a doctor speak on this, if I can find his video I will send it, I will keep your mom and your family in my prayers, God bless.
I am 64 and diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I have moved in with my daughter. My father died from Alzheimer’s. I am very happy. My husband and I enjoy life. No one gets out alive. Enjoy the special moments. Even when Dad didn’t remember who I was, he knew I was someone he loved.
You have a wonderful outlook which will be helpful for you - and your family:) My mom was the same about remembering who I was - sometimes she thought I was her best friend, sometimes I was her cousin and I just enjoyed knowing I was someone she loved:)
If your mom isn't see a functional medicine physician, I encourage you to consider finding one who could see her. You can use the "Find a Practitioner" link at www.ifm.org
Hopefully her current prescribing physician did more than prescribe a drug, and talked about the importance of ruling out insulin resistance, which is so commonly found to be a root cause.
I'm so sorry. For my dad I am grateful that he took no jabs. And I got him off of statins about 4 years ago or else I believe he would be very far gone. He is 86 and has memory issues etc. but it could be much worse
My mom died of dementia (Parkinson's) in Dec 2020. We noticed how bad it was in 2018 when our dad died (he had been covering it up and keeping it hidden from us). Our mom's younger sister moved in with her to help take care of her, so that was good. Consider yourself fortunate that it didn't happen during covid. I regret not taking more time off from work to take care of her even though I spent more time with her than my siblings did. If you have brothers and sisters, get help. It's too much for 1 child. I also regret not getting professional in home care sooner than we did.
The medications might help, but there are also side effects you have to watch out for.
Also, and I can't stress how important this is, there were times she was really bonkers and it turned out to be a UTI. I don't know why, but UTIs mess with older people's brain. She would go for days not making sense, and we discovered the UTI, gave her the medicine and she was fine. They make test strips you can get at a pharmacy.
Also, do not trust hospitals to care for your mom if she has to be hospitalized for some reason. I'm not sure if they are even fed because nurses don't have enough time.
Another tip, especially if she is getting up in the middle of the night is to use baby monitors. I'd also investing in bed railings to help keep her from getting out of bed in the middle of the night.
I have been following the subject of brain nutrition for some time. This linked supplement is unique and the most comprehensive brain supplement I know of. Not a cure but a good nutritional basis for brain support.
Sorry to hear this, Magnolia. This is the exact thing that has happened to my MIL. She can't remember her own children now. We're going to travel to FL this summer to visit her because we don't think she will be here much longer. My SIL has been having bad memory problems. My nephew told me she's getting worse too. Both jabbed. She wouldn't listen and called us conspiracy theorists.
Yesterday my mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and prescribed the medication for that and told she can no longer drive. She is 74 and took three jabs. My sister and I saw her quickly decline and become forgetful, brain fog some days, but some days were fine. Her father died age 92 and suffered from the same diagnosis but much later in his life. I’m still processing this and what it means for her life span and it’s quite difficult. any words from anyone who experienced this would be appreciated, thank you
I am so very sorry. That is so devastating.
My dad (84) has what I believe to be dementia or Alzheimer's, he refuses to be screened. He has brain fog, forgetfulness, is always angry, has severe depression, and in his words, he thinks it is time to die. Watching all of this is killing me. I too am suffering from severe depression and hopelessness, frustration and anger, which has led to anxiety, grief, digestion and sleep issues He took two jabs back when they first came out, despite me begging, pleading, crying, and trying everything to stop him. I don't feel guilty any more but am still so angry I could not stop him. His condition has most certainly worsened since then. Definitely. Neither parent of his had memory issues.
So for lifespan, I can't say. And certainly everyone is different so your mom might fare very well. I wish I could help more, and again, I am so sorry.
Magnolia and FourWinds, I am committing to praying for you daily. There is hope! Look up! The ancedote for fear is NOT courage, it is faith! Lean on the One who loves us beyond measure. I pray that both of you will find the help you need to navigate the situations you find yourselves in. He is our only hope. I love you both!
Maggie Think of Me, thank you for the most beautiful response. The only and best advice.

Thank you for this link, Maggie…, just listened to this lovely song of praise. Coincidentally, the next song up was a song with the same title by Cody Johnson. Lately, I stop everything and listen when Cody Johnson sings. I love his melodious voice and, as a country music fan, I think he’s the best singer of country that I’ve heard in a long time. Thank you again. Jesus lives!
I love listening to Cody Johnson as well! He does have a beautiful voice! Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you. And to you, a blessed weekend!
Praying for you both as well! 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for your loving kindness!!
It's Jesus.
This is a beautiful sermon!

AMEN AND AMEN!
Four Winds i especially relate to where you’ve been. I just lost my Mom at 84 after a stroke and dementia; she refused to see a neurologist after a bad fall years ago. The last couple years her behavior seemed similar to your Dad’s; always negative, angry, combative. The last couple months we had her in an afc home and they kept trying different meds on her that i ultimately had to approve so they wouldn’t kick her out.
As her patient advocate since 2020, i kept her safe from Covid and she never got the jab. I’m proud of that but still have guilt over all the meds at the end even though i know she had no quality of life and it was actually a blessing that she finally slipped away.
It’s disturbing so many people are getting dementia these days whether as a result of brain injuries, pharmaceuticals, or environmental factors. I’m still trying to make sense of it all so i don’t have huge words of wisdom, but please know that you and Magnolia are not alone. 💛
Thank you, I really appreciate your response. I'm sorry you lost your mom.
This is shameful to admit and I struggle with it daily: I love my dad so much and don't want him to die, as he is the last family I have that I am somewhat close with, but at the same time, it is clear he wants to leave this world. There is a part of me that will be relieved because he won't be in pain any more. But then that makes me feel guilty and terrible. It's kind of a no win scenario.
FourWinds - I believe we in America (especially we 'boomers') were brought up in the "Disney world" time warp - the "zippedy doo dah" philosophy about life. Well....DEATH is part of LIFE and perhaps we need to embrace that reality and not be afraid of it. Just like 'machines' that are wornweary and ready for the "junkyard"....our bodies are NOT eternal - only our SOULS and when we give our souls to the Lord Jesus Christ - DEATH IS SWALLOWED UP IN VICTORY. So do NOT feel "guilty" when you guide your father into the doorway to eternity - he will be SO OVERJOYED meeting his Savior face to face!!! Hold his hand as he travels into the REAL WORLD and you will rejoice, knowing that when you next see your father--both of you will be WHOLE and FILLED WITH OUR CREATOR'S 'AGAPE' LOVE--the most PURE LOVE OF ALL!
Beautifully said.
I pray earnestly before posting any 'heartfelt' responses...thank you, Susan.
How to disentangled from conflicting thoughts? Very difficult to place into words ... that all burdens are not our burden to sort out. But when I finally had come to see the impossibility of being 'the arbiter and decider of all things', I just threw up my arms into the air and turned it all over to God. Because there was no other choice. (Matthew 11:28 ... and that is the one of 'ye who are heavily burdened, come to me and I will give rest'. And I ignored that one all of my early life!)
How strange it is, at least by my lights, that the best torturers of ourselves is our own self. And the strangeness is that my torturing of myself only lifted once I gave up on being all things, understanding that for better or worse I can be no more than what God made me to be ... and this in my very little, small daily life. Anything else is futility, anguish and suffering.

Could be the electro-magnetic atmosphere. Not tied to diet, or sunlight exposure, etc. I tell ya they got us comin' and goin'. FUBAR.
Don't omit all of the aluminum in the chem trails, and other places in there food system causing Alzheimers.
I cannot "like" these Comments because I have serious concerns for my sons--both of whom have been jabbed and boosted (even though I shared GOOD INFO from Dr. Kory and Dr. McCullough over the past 3 years with them.
DO GET HELP caring for your loved ones who are "sliding into mental oblivion" - you cannot do it "alone". If you have a church family--go to your pastor and request help to care for your loved ones. "Respite care" daily is recommended for YOU so you are refreshed from the extreme energy sap this cognitive decline wreaks on caregivers!!
I see there are some recommendations below by a "Comment" today from FLORIDATRANSPLANT for some NATURAL/HOLISTIC treatments for cognitive decline/clinical depression. Read Florida Transplant's Comment - it's one of the main reasons that I continue to check in with the C & C "Army" daily - the TRULY HELPFUL recommendations and also Biblical references (especially from Janice).
JEHOVAH JIREH - God DOES provide just what we NEED!!!
Father had this and passed in 2019 before any shots. It is very hard to deal with, not gonna lie. That last Father's Day with him he didn’t know who I was. Lost his wife, my mom, of 65 years a few months before from heart disease. Who knew we’d all be grateful they died before the covid madness so we could be with them at the end. We all greeted 2020 with so much optimism after the awful prior year of losing them both. Well look how that turned out!!
Seek out Ryan Holliday's Daily Stoic and advise on stoicism. I have for the past ~2 months, and it is helping me deal with my anger with the insanity in the world and in too many people I know.
Why did you ever feel guilty, and why feel angry now that you couldn't stop your dad from self-destructing? I thought anti-vaxxers (the ones like me anyway) believe in freedom of choice. That includes the choice to follow the doctor's advice. For her last 15 years or so, my mom, who recently died at 100, would be prescribed meds that immediately harmed her mentally and physically. Statins and BP meds mostly. My wife and I would point out what was happening, she'd stop taking them, and improve. She'd have a doctor's appointment, be back on the same meds, and the cycle would repeat. We never felt the least bit guilty, why would we? Angry at the doctors, sure, but not angry at her choices - that's her being her. You can't fix stupid and gullible. You can only try to help.
I am so sorry to hear about this sad situation. Please do everything that you can to take care of yourself.
I’m so sorry to hear this, my friend ❤️
Maybe look into iodine supplementation (Dr. Brownstein) and in general BHRT? I have Hashimoto (a thyroid auto immune disorder) and I know issues with your thyroid can cause all manner of illness including depression. It’s worth checking out. All the best to you and yours!
{{Hugs}}
While I can appreciate that you’ve sought out top sleep doctors around the world, they are equally as brainwashed and captured by pig pharma/maintream idiology, etc. Sleep is extremely important but so is getting out in nature and getting natural vitamin D during the day.
While it’s a small amount of melatonin, if you’re getting enough sunlight/vitamin D during the day, you shouldn’t need melatonin and I don’t recommend taking it on a regular basis. It’s a hormone that your body naturally produces and by taking additional amounts you’re messing with your hormones.
Magnesium is super important but please don’t take Calm. Most of the Calm products are using Magnesium citrate which is the cheapest form and least helpful in terms of helping one sleep. That’s why if you take too much you get 💩💩 you want a high quality magnesium glycinate. I would personally look for pill form… Calm flavors have tons of natural flavoring which is actually not natural at all. It also has stevia which I personally am not a fan.
I’m shocked this hasn’t been mentioned but exercise! Even if it’s just walking outside for 30-45 min a day it’s so so important and helps with depressing and sleep 10x over.
And lastly make sure you’re eating a healthy diet. Try and cut out as much processed foods as possible. Lots of protein, veggies and fruit. Limit your sugar intake.
SS, I concur about the magnesium glycinate. I looked at the CALM ingredients years ago, and…no thanks.
I take magnesium l-threonate. No 💩 problems.
This is especially helpful as it crosses the blood brain barrier.
See my comment about limiting time on all devices…getting the TV and devices out of the bedroom…and yes I recommend magnesium glycinate …take it every night! Also not everyone lives where the sun shines in the winter…then Vitamin D3 supplementation is in order.
100% supplementation if needed. Just want to make sure it’s quality D3 and doesn’t have a ton of crap additives
I was told years ago by a naturopath that glycinate is better for anxiety and sleep while citrate is much better for constipation. I hope that's accurate because the gummies I use for my kids' severe constipation is citrate specifically for that reason. I swear, it can be so hard to get a straight answer sometimes. If anyone here knows of a much better form for constipation, please let me know.
Another thing that helps constipation (and pretty much everything else in the body) is proper hydration. Huge subject, but Dr Dana Cohen wrote a wonderful book called "Quench" that sums it all up for laypeople. It is a great mix of theory & practical action steps. I no longer suffer from dry eye because of her advice. (She's also done a few podcasts if you prefer video format).
A spoonful of Avocado oil on an empty stomach every morning will make regular in about 3-4 days... You can try olive oil, but I rather like avocado since it has a very mild taste.
I agree, I just checked my notebook and have written citrate is a mild laxative and Oxide as a medium laxative. I find prunes work well too 😉
Agreed about Magnesium. Best choices are the one you mentioned, and Magnesium L-Threonate, which crosses the blood brain barrier. We take both. In fact, turns out I don't absorb magnesium very well, so I take liposomal Magnesium L- Threonate gel in a packet.
Yes, also a great choice! There are actually 5-6 different types of Magnesium and they all have different focuses and help in different areas. But most multi-vitamins that include Magnesium typically include citrate because it's the cheapest - but it's also doing nothing to help you.
I personally have no issues with Stevia, but my research leads me to the same conclusions on everything else.
This is so interesting--your advice reminds me of Thomas Aquinas' "prescription" for combatting depression: a good meal, followed by a hot bath, followed by a nap.
Epsom salts bath before bed is also helpful as well as sunshine.
Yes. Go outside just after sunrise, in mid day, and just before sunset for a few minutes, so your brain knows the time of day. More natural light, less time indoors with artificial light. It helps.
Andrew Huberman has done great podcasts on this. He says there are four things you need for your sleep cycle to be straigtened out: morning sunlight (colors of the sunrise) in your eyes; sunlight from the afternoon/evening sunset (the colored light is important again); as much sunlight as possible during the day; and as much darkness as possible at night. Of course, you don't look directly at the sun, but you must be outside. I also wear blue-light blocking glasses in the evening, and it seems to help. I highly recommend Huberman's website and podcasts.
I used to live in Washington just east of Seattle. None of those things would be possible except for three months in summer. The rest of the year you’ll be lucky to see a short glimpse of sun once a day. Probably why the state leads in suicide and serial killers….it’s real. After 18 years of it, we were finally able to move to a much sunnier place and the difference is huge!!!!! I sleep so much better now and my mood has improved!
Right! Epsom salts are Magnesium based...
Vitamin D, sunlight and exercise are also good for depression. I used to get 'the wintertime blues' and started taking Vit D during winter months. No more problems. It also boosts the immune system as we all know, so I rarely get sick and have never had the flu.
Yes take Vitamin D3 in the winter because many people do not live where the sun shines in the winter! (I live in sunny SoCA and I still take D3 everyday.)
And good old fashioned exercise will do wonders for someone struggling with depression!
Yes. Whatever type of exercise works for each person. Even taking a short walk is better than nothing. No need to join a gym, for example.
CALM, originally owned by Natural Vitality, and then by Wellnext. was acquired by Clorox in 2017. It took 10 minutes of digging to find this out and Wellnext sneakily rebranded to change it's name to "Nutranext" before the acquisition by Clorox. https://www.nutraingredients-usa.com/Article/2018/03/12/Clorox-to-acquire-supplement-company-Nutranext-for-700-million#
I have a naturopath physician friend who has advised her patients not to use CALM for several years now (I used to, and still have a jar of it in my pantry). Research magnesium supplements through a better source, such a Fullscript, or The Wellness company. You can make a Fullscript account for free and follow Dr. DiNicolantonio or Dr. Mark McDonald (Dissident MD substack) for really good protocols for sleep, depression, etc. but check with a doctor who knows supplementation - it's usually not your PCP, I'm sorry to say.
There are many different types of magnesium and it is beneficial to take a blend of types -- (citrate, glycinate and malate, not just citrate) and a brand that is excellent is Professional Formula's Magnesium complex. PF is a privately owned company not bought out by big corp or pharma https://professionalformulas.com/pf-values/
I have found out recently that a lot of supplement companies have been bought out by Big Pharma. They continue on their wretched path of controlling how we take care of our health without them. I just read an article by Dr. Edward Group. Very informing. Now I know what to look for in nutraceuticals.
At some point in time maybe 20+ years ago, Big Pharma using the arm of the government must have felt too many people were using supplements instead of prescription pills. They went after the supplement industry and imposed regulations on them including a restriction on stating what various supplements would benefit. I didn't realize that BP went into buying supplement companies as well. I'm so disgusted with BP in general.
I looked at the Truth About Cancer site and there's some interesting reading on it.
"The Truth About Cancer" has a plethora of beneficial information!
Do you have a link for Dr. Group's article? I'd like to read it.
I actually printed it off of "The Truth About Cancer" website. You can probably pull it up on their site. The article is entitled, "Are The Supplements You're taking Toxic?"
excellent advice, I have been using just calm for over 20 yrs, works great. Also use in conjunction a product called "resurge", it has magnesium, zinc, L arginine, l-lysine hydrochloride, ashwaganda root, l-thinine, 5-htp and melatonin. If you use google or duck duck it will tell you the site is unsafe. It is not, been using this product since the plandemic, it keeps my mind from racing. Follow the directions on the bottle. The L ingredience are amino acids that your body makes.
Good Sleep is So important- thank you for sharing & speaking to this.
Good advice for sleep, and, yes - take B vitamins in the morning. The sleep aids you suggest are a great alternative to toxic Rx and over the counter drugs. The irony is that folks with insomnia often take stuff with the antihistamine called diphenhydramine (think: Tylenol PM, Zzyquil, Benadryl, etc.); products which have been available over the counter for many years now. Drugs such as these damage the brain and cause poor and permanent cognitive impairment. These drug-induced sleeps aren’t natural; they don’t allow the brain to do it’s overnight healing.
Thanks! My practice over the years has been and remains to eschew the drug store entirely. Only eat simple, natural foods. And since C19 ... the few vitamins my wife puts out for me.
This good information ... and I hope some young people see this and take it to heart.
Another 2 things that help with sleep taken with magnesium are inositol powder and glycine powder, mixed in water before bed. I am now sleeping in 5 hour stretches instead of waking up every night at 3 a.m.
Read Roman Shapoval, on Substack. He talks about early morning sun to get your natural melatonin working, he’s full of good info.
I’ll have to look up his Substack from what I remember the blue light especially after sundown prohibit your body from making the melatonin that it needs. something to that effect.
Also, LED lights with their incessant flickering are very bad for us. It’s really crazy that incandescent lightbulbs are no longer available considering the danger that LED lights pose.
You can thank Al Gore for the light bulbs. My dad calls him ‘I Gore’ 🤣
I am afraid it was GW Bush who signed the death warrant for the incandescent bulb. Ostensibly for the same reason that your utility company likely offers rebates for, or even free replacements of, old appliances - it is cheaper to diminish demand than increase supply.
Darn, I wanted to blame the man who says he invented the internet, I Gore, 🤣🤣🤣
When I take a hot bath like to mentioned it keeps me up. For my sister it puts her to sleep. Dr Jack Kruse who is a neurosurgeon says everything comes down to circadian rhythm, see the sunrise and sunset and avoid blue light. Everything is blue light so recommendations are blue light blocking glasses, etc. Way more to it then that and he is hard to follow (for me anyway) Maria Menounos has a pod case with her naturopath on who explains it in english for me...lol Heal Squad is her podcase and episode 808 and 817.

Cold shower therapy
Excellent, Florida! I would add also go out at noon, and get 15 minutes of sunshine on your nude body. Sunshine!
Thank you! I have had terrible luck with melatonin - it actually makes my depression worse. However, maybe 5 mg was too much. I'll check into the lower dose. Thanks again!
Also, I already use CALM. Excellent product and tasty on top of that. :)
Just an FYI, when my wife saw Dr. Tennant, he told her to move from 10 mg a night of melatonin to 100 mg. Yep, you read that right, and if there is a better holistic Doctor in the world than him, I'd like to know.
A lot of people take high dose melatonin during day, not just at bed.. Supposed to be good for cancer as well as protective of body during scans. The high dose Melatonin is different from the 3 mg, 5 mg , 10mg people are taking at night....so they say....lol
I can’t take melatonin either.
Nor I. Gives me nightmares.
Same! Esp at higher doses. Nightmares and sleep paralysis!
Exactly. There might be an issue with the dosing as others pointed out. But I am staying clear of it.
The normal dosage is nuts, as other people have pointed out.
If I take one of those 3mg tablets and scrape a barely visible crumb from it, even just that crumb works to get me to sleep. Still disturbs my dreams though.
Yes that is wayyyy to much. I took 3 mg a couple times and it messed me ip. It should be micrograms.
I have heard that you should never supplement melatonin because it’s a hormone, but who knows
FLCCC recommends it for COVID as well as other illnesses. I've taken it for several years.
That is why the dose is so low. This may start the cycle of natural melatonin production that gets messed up by all of the artificial light.
Great tips! I have also found that vitamin D makes me wired, so I take it in the morning, never before sleep.
All good tips…also no devices or TV for a good hour or two before going to bed. And if you have a TV in your bedroom get it outta there! The Bedroom is for sleeping and other activities! 😉 Listen to calming or meditative music that puts positive energy into your psyche!
"Gettr unexpectedly closed this connection".
Damned solar flares.
Now it’s there; a book about survival super foods
Carol, can you give us a bit of insight as to the contents of this post, please.
Don’t count on it. “carol” is a bot.
Access is denied …🤔
of course they are poisoning are foods with mrna, buy local from farmers markets, eventually they too will be poisoned.
Still denied.
Sorry for you and yours - my wife (76) has been through the very same experience. The doctor is worthless - just drugs that have no effect whatsoever. I'm now frantically trying to put together a treatment focusing on nutrition, etc.
Adding to Don’s post, I also recommend finding a doctor who will work on treating what could be vaccine damage, but also treating the memory issues naturally. These treatments can work; I’ve seen it work in a friend who developed alarming memory issues and the treatments (supplements mostly) actually reversed it. Look into coconut oil too. I drive an hour to a clinic that has such doctors; it has been worth it the drive and the money … insurance often does not cover natural medicine.
There is a great website put together by a woman MD, Dr. Mary Newport, whose husband Steve developed early-onset Alzheimers at about age 50.
She found that the medium-chain triglycerides in coconut oil had a healing effect on his brain. One Tablespoon, 3X a day. It sounds very simplistic but true. There is so much information and videos on this site. Amazing. Dr. Newport was a practicing Neonatologist in Florida where she still lives.
https://coconutketones.com.
Becky - yes. Tragically, insurance doesn’t cover what is, in my opinion, the best treatments. I only see a functional medicine doctor…never again will I use a ‘regular’ allopathic physician (well, except for a broken ankle, which happened to me last October). What a racket with the pharmaceutical industry, insurance carriers and medical providers…they steer folks toward harmful treatments, because insurance covers them.
Agree completely. We are in the process of transitioning to a sort of but not concierge care, where we pay $100 each per month (less if you aren't a geezer) and no further payments for telemedicine or house visits. They have no office. The best part of that is that they now have an incentive to keep you healthy. This will compete the process of moving to 100 % non allopathic Rockefeller paractitioners. I encourage everyone to do the same if you value your health. More expensive leaving insurance behind? Sure. But what price your health, without which, what's left?
We're doing the same thing with our concierge doctor. No talk about vaxxes or masks, ever. She's an Integrative Health doctor. We pay $150/month for a family plan, which comes out of our FSA. I consider it a good use of funds.
since leaving Richmond, the great majority of my doctor, eye doctor, dermatologist , and dentist appointments have been out of town, 2 1/2 hours most times, each way, and now, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. My opinion is if you need to see nay of those professionals, you may as well go to the people to see you once to diagnose or treat you.
Look into taurine and methylene blue. There are others as well
Those are on my list - plus ivermectin and a few supplements reputedly effective in treating/reversing dementia - I don't have my list handy or I would provide more details. Thanks for taking an interest!
Would you consider sharing your list later?
Fiji water! Or other silica-rich water. Read Dr Christopher Exley (he has a substack)
MOMinator - may I ask abt the silica rich water? I have used Diatomaceous Earth (heaping tap) in my coffee when I have issues with my gut - I do wonder though "Is this healthy and safe?! Any thoughts? Thank you!
There’s also a book by Dennis Crouse PhD, examining the benefits of silica water in Alzheimer’s. He was to reverse some of his mom’s symptoms with Fiji water.
Evian supposedly has enough silica ions to be effective as well.
I’m sorry, I don’t know much, or anything really, about diatomaceous earth. I did a search that mentioned it was rich in silica. May I suggest asking this exact question on Christopher Exley’s substack (any article, people ask questions in the comments all the time, he answers them too)
I’ll keep an eye out though, and come back if anything of interest comes up! :)
Oh no. We sprinkle that at our doorways to combat scorpions when we are gone. It’s safe to ingest?
You want High PH water above all else.
Please share your findings on Ivermectin and dementia reversal. Would you email me? Jlbg8r@gmail.con
We are taking it 2x a week already. Thank you
We have not yet started the protocol I'm working on putting together. My understanding is that, to some extent not well understood, dementia MAY be caused by some sort of fungus and that is why ivermectin MAY reverse dementia. I will email you when I have more to say.
Thanks!
I don't know abt fungus dementia - but I am struggling (!!!) with recurrent fungal nasal infections! I am so tired of meds - last one - itraconazole I quit second round - my kidneys werr aching and still do after 3/4 of a year! I can't take high doses of vitamin C (it causes cold sores - mouth, nose, even corners of my eyes! Ouch!)
Would IBM be helpful for fungal sinus infection? I am struggling with the beginning of another oneI have 12 mg IVM, but havent taken - with kidneys hurting I don't want to take anything unless I really believe it would be helpful! Thanks.
VelvetStitching - also consider checking out, on YouTube, Bulletproof nasal rinse (the video with a guy wearing a puffy vest). I also had chronic sinus infections and fungal stuff. This method really gets deep into the sinuses much better than a Neti pot).
A few days ago someone brought up Boron (borax). There’s a list of stuff it helps, starting with arthritis. Go to The Natural Health Library.
I've read that as well and think the IVM might be helpful anyway just from an angle of reducing spike protein attachment to ACE and other pathways it may be helpful with detoxing from the vax. You must be a 2SG reader as well perhaps?? Again best of luck.
Good!
Coconut oil
I posted this in a different spot. Important, so it bears repeating, re coconut oil:
There is a great website put together by a woman MD, Dr. Mary Newport, whose husband Steve developed early-onset Alzheimers at about age 47.
She found that the medium-chain triglycerides in coconut oil had a healing effect on his brain. One Tablespoon, 3X a day. It sounds very simplistic but true. There is so much information and videos on this site. Amazing. Dr. Newport was a practicing Neonatologist in Florida where she still lives.

I’ve tried this several times. Even with small doses it upsets my stomach. I wonder if you can take mct oil with food.
Absolutely!
A good fat! 😊 Helps with brain and neuro health.
I think we are all learning the hard way to not rely on doctors and instead seek alternative "nutritional" therapy. LifeExtension.com is a good place to find some information and a good place to start.
Coconut oil, red ginseng, lions mane mushroom. 🤷🏻♀️ You just throw everything at it and pray something works. Praying with you. We, and my mother are not vacxed but we are seeing mental slippage. Told hubby yesterday that a killing heart attack is the best way to go. It used to be the number one killer. What a blessing.
Exactly - I think I have about 8 supplements on my list - now I have to convince my wife that she needs to spend her day swallowing pills . . . :)
Honestly, you get used to it. I'm looking at 15 bottles that I take at one point or another during my day (only 2 are prescription--the rest are all supplements) and that doesn't count all the ones I have to take more than one pill from. But if you feel a lot better when you take them it makes a difference. I will admit to having days where I skip some or most of them in a fit of pique which is ok with all of them thank goodness. Not everything is safe to do that with which is why I prefer to be "dependent" on supplements--forgetting or skipping isn't harmful or fatal.
Keep in mind, a lot of supplements come in powdered or liquid form (they're generally much cheaper this way, also). You can just mix a bunch of them together in a few nasty-tasting gulps of water and be done with it. My pre-bedtime mix is currently magnesium chloride, diatomaceous earth, zinc, potassium chloride, MSM, and iodine in about 3 oz of water. I sleep better than I have in 40 years...usually for 8-9 hours per night.
Don, we lost our son to brain cancer at 16 years old and tried to save his life naturally. They killed him with a lie, but that's another story. We learned a TON about the brain and apply that to our life now and our other 3 children. I became a Juice Plus rep so we take the vegetable, fruit, berry, and omega capsules as a baseline for our now extremely healthy lifestyle. We eat organic food and skip all processed. The big deal is the oils and fats in your house. The brain thrives on healthy fat. So ditch anything that is NOT organic coconut oil (can use in high heat), avocado oil, but only the Chosen Brand, I think the rest aren't proven if they are truly avocado, and organic, extra virgin olive oil, we stick to brands from Italy and Greece. I know of a Doc who did an experiment on her husband who couldn't put his pants on anymore....she gave him 2 T of coconut oil per day and within two weeks, he was able to put his pants on again. I know....not a true scientific experiment, but you get the point. We no longer use MDs, and pay out of pocket for everything. One test we do every 6 months is HTMA...it's hair sample testing that gives info on all mineral and vitamin shortages in your body. I have a great functional gal in Idaho who tests for that and you just mail it in, she's amazing. You get a 20-page feedback on you, what you can do to help yourself, and a Zoom with her to guide you. You have my prayers and admiration for taking care of your wife and loving her well.
Oh, and organ meat!!!! BIG DEAL. If you can't stomach it or don't have access to clean organ meat the company Heart and Soil is a good place to start.
Could you post her name and business name please? Enough so I can Google and find her clinic? I’d like to try that hair test.
Katie - Is there a list of "vetted" olive oils?
Name of this perform in Idaho or her web page?

I would look into it. I put together my own set of vitamins, minerals, and herbs, but I'd like to run it by an expert.
I hope that Dale Bredesen’s book “The End of Alzheimer’s” can help you. It is a wonderful book providing a multi-factorial treatment protocol.
My mom and my aunt both have dementia. I was just reading about Methylene blue for the treatment of Alzheimer's and dementia. Maybe something worth looking into.
Earnestly and fervently praying for everyone afflicted with dementia and Alzheimer’s…especially when it is jab-related. My grandmother had three sisters—she and two of those sisters all came down with dementia…my grandmother lived with it for nearly 10 years before she passed. Now my aunt is starting to show signs of it, but I know she’s been vaxxed even though she takes HCQ for arthritis. I tried and begged and cajoled against the jabs but to no avail. My family “trusts their doctors”. To their doom.
For sure!
Look up Barbara O'Neill. She will lift your spirit with words of wisdom, of things you can do and take to help with those issues! Suppliments work!
Is Barbara O’Neill on substack?
I've never seen a substack for Barbara O'Neill. She has tons of YouTube videos.
Do they have her on statins?
No but she is taking a med for BP - and her BP went up right after her second jab. The dementia presented after the third jab (about 8-12 months ago) For her entire life she had very low (but safe) BP. There's no doubt in my mind that the rise in BP was a direct result of the jabs.
My military son had two jabs. I supplied him with the spike support supplement from the wellness company. I will be praying for you and your wife
I use a natural product for my BP it is called BP NatRelief 11. It is a combination of herbs. I was turned on to it by my MD. I have been using it for years, taking 1 in the morning. Keeps my bp well controlled. Just so you know, the last 2 times I ordered they had a picture of the rat fauci on their web page. don't let it discourage you. The web site is www.natrelief.com. they are located in commuformia.
Very good - both are on my list. Also, ivermectin, benfothiamine, wasaba, turmeric, all of the B vits, bacopa, luteolin, multi-vits, NAC, acetyl-L-carnitine and possibly a few others. I'm still researching this subject.
I saw a Dr. McCullough video where he said that the enzyme Lumbrokinase works 10x better than nattokinase.
Coconut oil and Barbara O’Neil
didn't know Barbara O'Neil, so I looked her up. According to wikipedia, she is: "an Australian alternative medicine personality, known for promoting dangerous and unsupported alternative medical practices and ideas". Good enough for me!
"Good enough for me!" - love it!! Wikipedia helps us find the truthsayers:)
westonprice.org —the Weston A. Price foundation.
My experience with the majority of the doctors, is that they basically just prescribe medication for any symptom. They appear beholden to big pharma and refuse to look at anything else. Of course, if they do they risk receiving the "Jeanette Breen treatment"
Unless it is for pain, then not so much. They like seeing those w/genuine pain issues suffer.
Amen brother!
You may also want to look into copper and iodine supplementation...just about all of us are deficient in both, and they are both necessary for proper brain function. https://revealingfraud.com/ is a good place to start, Jason Hommel has tons of info on his website, you don't really need to buy the book, though it's nice to have everything in printed form.
Look into a carnivore diet. The brain needs fats.
You are a good man, Don.
Check Dr. Dale Bredesen's page, He is on FB.
I am going throught the same thing right now! My mom turned 80 last month. She has been slipping for years and she is not fun loving as she used to be, gets angry at me for nothing, forgets a lot, can't focus and doesn't want to. Deep things we talked about are gone.
However, I can still enjoy her company when I came to the conclusion that change must happen, and I am going to make the best of it. It is like mourning them before they go, but when they do, I think it will be easier to accept. I just want to keep her happy. She was and is a good mom to me. She is not vaxxed for covid or the flu but it happens to us anyway.
I forewarn you about the toxic dementia meds doctors commonly prescribe that do not help and make things worse. Look up the side effects. A very close friend's dad is on them and none of them make any difference and the doctor doesn't care. In her case, he won't go to bed and is up all night with sundowners eating and he is diabetic. She asked for something to help him sleep like diazapam but the doc refuses. At this point, he is so bad, it doesn't matter if he takes those dementia meds, but he needs to sleep. I'd leave that doc but it's not me...
I think a lot of meds like cholesterol actually cause this ailment.
God bless
The current drug, Aricept, is mostly ineffective but expensive. It may retard disease progression by a few months but when stopped one often sees an immediate drop in cognitive scores. The new one is absolutely WORTHLESS. It was fully approved by the FDA despite the unanimous objections of the advisory panel because of demonstrated lack of efficacy. It did nothing! In fact, the entire advisory panel resigned in protest. But like Remdesivir it is hugely expensive and Pharma knew it would be a trillion dollar cash cow for a growing problem. Talk about exploiting desperate people and their loved ones! The FDA is beyond corrupt. They are evil. But we knew that…….
I think that is one of the meds my friend's dad is taking.
They cause the problem and then pretend to solve it. That applies to just about everything.
So sorry. It's hard; I know, but not limited to jabbed people. Both of my parents died before the jab rollout. My father, moreso, experienced dementia. My comfort was that they were completing the full circle of life; coming into the world as helpless infants, maturing and growing with the help of their parents, then depending on us, their children, as they lost their faculties.
My father (83) is now in a memory care village. He has hooked up with a female resident and they each think the other is the deceased spouse. But they're mostly happy. Had my sister and I been able to intervene sooner, we would have used Dale bredesen's protocol. Indeed, when dad eats my sister's food (not institutional food), he really has a boost in cognition. I highly recommend reading bredesen's work and looking for a practitioner who can help. Cognitive decline can be slowed, sometimes even reversed.
I have heard that nicotine is helpful for Alzheimers (might also help covid/ covid vaccine effects), here is a linkhttps://www.wndu.com/content/news/The-good-side-of-nicotine-for-Alzheimers-patients-567810531.html, Dr. Ardis has information on this as well. https://thedrardisshow.com/. God Bless, maybe it will help.
Saw an episode with Dr. Ardis saying that nicotine could possible reverse gioblastoma.
I think Jeff ( not positive) may have addressed this at some point that a number of independent researchers are alarmed about the mRNA’s recently-discovered tendency to produce random misfolded proteins, which they worry is a recipe for dementia.

Also, studies show that D3 assists brain function -
Adult hippocampus neurogenesis - continual hippocampus growth - prevents Alzheimer’s. If the cells are growing it provides curiosity, a sign of health. Also provides psychological resilience. (Jnl Molecular Psychiatry)

Dr. Paul Marik, (FLCCC) - We should be taking handfuls of vitamin C, although IV is in his protocol.
liposomal C boosts the milligrams

A study showed the spike protein caused cognitive decline in mice. But since the mRNA vax makes our cells into spike protein factories, well you can read between the lines. In fairness to the authors they didn't make the connection to the vax (though just about everyone I know who read the study did).

Re melatonin, some snips that I have collected:
Melatonin as an antioxidant: under promises but over delivers
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jpi.12360
-
Melatonin is a popular therapeutic with relatively low toxicity. Its main market is for the treatment of sleep disorders. There are dosing strategies, side effects and QC issues but cannot make any personal recommendations as we all have different tolerances and medical & drug histories.36

Regarding spike-induced damage to the mitochondria, we have a good ally: melatonin.
This article was written by Dr. Russell Reiter, the leading expert on melatonin.
https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/17/12/2124
Melatonin is uncommonly effective in reducing oxidative stress under a remarkably large number of circumstances. It achieves this action via a variety of means: direct detoxification of reactive oxygen and reactive nitrogen species and indirectly by stimulating antioxidant enzymes while suppressing the activity of pro-oxidant enzymes.
melatonin also reportedly chelates transition metals, which are involved in the Fenton/Haber–Weiss reactions; in doing so, melatonin reduces the formation of the devastatingly toxic hydroxyl radical resulting in the reduction of oxidative stress.
Melatonin's ubiquitous but unequal intracellular distribution, including its high concentrations in mitochondria, likely aid in its capacity to resist oxidative stress and cellular apoptosis. There is credible evidence to suggest that melatonin should be classified as a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant.
Experimental findings also indicate that melatonin renders treatment-resistant cancers sensitive to various therapeutic agents and may be useful, due to its multiple antioxidant actions, in especially delaying and perhaps treating a variety of >>> age-related diseases and dehumanizing conditions. <<<
Melatonin has been effectively used to combat oxidative stress, inflammation and cellular apoptosis and to restore tissue function in a number of human trials; its efficacy supports its more extensive use in a wider variety of human studies. The uncommonly high-safety profile of melatonin also bolsters this conclusion.
Im so sorry for your mom but I have read about ways to reverse Alzheimers and Dementia which are not the same. I saw a doctor speak on this, if I can find his video I will send it, I will keep your mom and your family in my prayers, God bless.
Prayers for your mum.
They get you where you are most vulnerable. So sorry to hear about your mum.
I am 64 and diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. I have moved in with my daughter. My father died from Alzheimer’s. I am very happy. My husband and I enjoy life. No one gets out alive. Enjoy the special moments. Even when Dad didn’t remember who I was, he knew I was someone he loved.
You have a wonderful outlook which will be helpful for you - and your family:) My mom was the same about remembering who I was - sometimes she thought I was her best friend, sometimes I was her cousin and I just enjoyed knowing I was someone she loved:)
If your mom isn't see a functional medicine physician, I encourage you to consider finding one who could see her. You can use the "Find a Practitioner" link at www.ifm.org
Also https://www.ifm.org/news-insights/addressing-the-root-causes-of-cognitive-decline-and-dementia/
Hopefully her current prescribing physician did more than prescribe a drug, and talked about the importance of ruling out insulin resistance, which is so commonly found to be a root cause.
See https://www.verywellhealth.com/why-is-alzheimers-called-type-3-diabetes-98797
I'm in now way discounting the toxicity of the mRNA injections, only suggesting there may well be ways to still help your mom see improvement!
The Bredesen Protocol. The only treatment studied to be able to actually backtrack somewhat. Apollo Health is Bredesen's personal clinic.
This Bredeson protocol does work for a lot of people. It is worth a try.
I'm so sorry. For my dad I am grateful that he took no jabs. And I got him off of statins about 4 years ago or else I believe he would be very far gone. He is 86 and has memory issues etc. but it could be much worse
Yellow stickies are my friend. I have used them for years as a helping reminder.
Have them posted on my bathroom mirror with upcoming events so I don't forget.
I find that using them seems to free up my brain from thinking, "what am I forgetting to do?"
Oh yesss to the sticky notes!
One of the most important inventions of the 20th century.
Our bathroom mirror is covered in reminders written with erasable markers!
I use alerts/reminders on my phone!
I don't have a smartphone.
My mom died of dementia (Parkinson's) in Dec 2020. We noticed how bad it was in 2018 when our dad died (he had been covering it up and keeping it hidden from us). Our mom's younger sister moved in with her to help take care of her, so that was good. Consider yourself fortunate that it didn't happen during covid. I regret not taking more time off from work to take care of her even though I spent more time with her than my siblings did. If you have brothers and sisters, get help. It's too much for 1 child. I also regret not getting professional in home care sooner than we did.
The medications might help, but there are also side effects you have to watch out for.
Also, and I can't stress how important this is, there were times she was really bonkers and it turned out to be a UTI. I don't know why, but UTIs mess with older people's brain. She would go for days not making sense, and we discovered the UTI, gave her the medicine and she was fine. They make test strips you can get at a pharmacy.
Also, do not trust hospitals to care for your mom if she has to be hospitalized for some reason. I'm not sure if they are even fed because nurses don't have enough time.
Another tip, especially if she is getting up in the middle of the night is to use baby monitors. I'd also investing in bed railings to help keep her from getting out of bed in the middle of the night.
I have been following the subject of brain nutrition for some time. This linked supplement is unique and the most comprehensive brain supplement I know of. Not a cure but a good nutritional basis for brain support.

Sorry to hear this, Magnolia. This is the exact thing that has happened to my MIL. She can't remember her own children now. We're going to travel to FL this summer to visit her because we don't think she will be here much longer. My SIL has been having bad memory problems. My nephew told me she's getting worse too. Both jabbed. She wouldn't listen and called us conspiracy theorists.
