Reversing Alzheimer's Disease

What should I do to begin the recovery process?

Don’t jump from the frying pan into the fire. Read. Learn. Knowing what to do will save tens of thousands of dollars in wasted medical expenses and put the patient in charge of his or her recovery program. First, fan open the pages of new books and dry them outside in the air for a week or ten days before anyone with cerebral allergies attempts to read them. New books have formaldehyde in the glue. Hydrocarbons are in the ink and paper is bleached white with chlorine. Any form of chlorine product uses mercury in the manufacturing process. In addition, while old books have out-gassed most of their chemicals, they are often moldy. Mold also can cause cerebral allergic reactions. All of the above items cause brain-fog35 in sensitive individuals. If necessary, read outside with the wind at your back. Again, out-gassing fumes from books or newspapers can cause brain-fog and brain-fag36 in a chemically sensitive person in two seconds. Some chemically sensitive people are so reactive to out-gassing chemical odors they must live like hermits in the mountains. They stow “printed” mail in garbage cans outside the house. All of those people are low on trace minerals. I had to take trace minerals every day for more than four months before there was any noticeable improvement to cerebral brain-fog reactions from auto exhaust. Within 12 months most of the side effects from noxious smells abated.

Vitamins and Minerals

For the first six months the patient will probably need to take intramuscular liquid vitamin shots. May I suggest older people take liquid vitamins sublingually (under the tongue). I think that approach might be almost as effective as taking shots. It will certainly be less troublesome and painless. Dr. Lendon Smith writes one cc B 12, 1 cc B complex and ½ cc of folic acid every three days is the correct dose. The patient can determine the correct time schedule as their brain-fog begins to clear. They will ask their care giver for additional vitamins and minerals when their thinking starts to deteriorate again.

There are many other vitamins, minerals and food supplement including digestive enzymes and hydrochloric acid (HCl) that I take regularly. See Beating Alzheimer’s. It is important to read “Clean Room” in Beating Alzheimer’s. Start there. People with brain-fog symptoms cannot recover without an “oasis.” They need an uncontaminated area to regain their strength and thought processes when they crash. Reread Beating Alzheimer’s until the pages fall apart.

The second book to study as if your life depends on knowing everything within its cover is Alternative Approach to Allergies by Theron Randolph MD. Pay attention to this important information that can make a real difference in your recovery. This book is the key that unlocks the food allergy, chemical sensitivity connection to AD. This is the area of life the patient must learn to control. If they are unable, or unwilling to pay the price to make permanent changes in their lifestyle and living environment no one, nothing, can help them. The buck stops here! Do it or die. Why hang onto a family home near a freeway, keep a gas or oil furnace because hydrocarbon fuel is more economical than electricity, or eat favorite foods if it kills you? The patient must learn to be as keen an environmental detective as Sherlock Holmes and find 200 needles in a hay stack, while blindfolded. Every food allergy will cause withdrawal and be painful to let go of.38 Reduction of allergies will accelerate after dental detoxicology treatment is completed.

Now is the time to read It’s All in Your Head and Uninformed Consent by Dr. Hal Huggins, (719) 548-1600, and Dental Infections and Degenerative Disease by Dr. Weston Price and The Root Canal Cover-up by Dr. George Meinig. Dr. Meinig is an original founding member of the American Endodontic Association (AEA) and was a dentist for the 20th Century Fox Studio. If the patient reads these books, he or she will have learned the information to protect themselves that both the ADA and the FDA have covered up. He or she will have learned more about the toxic effects of dentistry and oral pathology than 99 per cent of ADA dentists in the United States. With few exceptions, every dentist in the United States should have to return to college for retraining. Every professor of every dental school needs a thorough course in dental detoxicology. Traditional dental practice belongs to the dark ages.

The sixth book to read is The Yeast Connection by Dr. William Crook. You cannot consume any form of sugar or refined flour products. You must not substitute honey for sugar either. While we are on the subject, do not use substitute sugar. Aspartame (NutraSweet) is linked to sudden memory loss, seizures, flicker induced epileptic activity, permanent brain damage, blindness and other acute physical reactions. Do not drink fruit juice. Do not eat any fruit for at least two months. After two months you may try one “organic” apple once in a while. Substitute powdered vitamin C for fruit. Continue to read The Yeast Connection until you know everything within its cover. If you are unwilling to discontinue using refined flour products and stop eating sweets, recovery is impossible. The Seventh book is Smart Nutrients by Dr. Abram Hoffer and Dr. Morton Walker.

Follow the directions in Dr. Huggins’ report that you will obtain after you complete biocompatibility testing, or find an orthomolecular physician to balance body chemistry and take homeopathic remedies and other detoxicants to remove metals and chemicals from the body.

Studies show older dogs occasionally display symptoms of memory loss. Obviously a dog does not go to the dentist, but grain, the main ingredient of dog food, is exposed to mercury vapor in the silo. Incidentally, a cat fed a steady diet of tuna fish for seven months will become acutely ill from mercury poisoning. Flea collars are saturated with chemicals. Household animals sleep on carpets. Their noses are a half inch away from formaldehyde fumes.

Environmental Chemicals

The rule is, if you smell any out-gassing odor, remove the offending substance away from you, or you away from it. Your nose knows. It is your first line of defense. Pay attention to what it is telling you. By the time you have recognized an odor, the out gassing substance has passed from your lungs into your blood stream. In addition, we lose approximately 50 per cent of our ability to distinguish separate odors of compounds we are sensitive to within 24 hours.

All petroleum products contain mercury. Remove chemicals, aluminum foil, soft plastic food containers and plastic bags from the cupboards and from under the kitchen and bathroom sinks. If the garage adjoins the house, the ideal place to store chemicals, books, magazines and newspapers is an outside storage shed. Never park an automobile in an attached garage or in the basement. Gas and oil hydrocarbon fumes will flow into the living area. Dr. Randolph has ordered more than 3,000 gas furnaces and stoves removed from reactive patients’ homes. With the exception of Addy Defur I have not heard of one Alzheimer’s sufferer, or mentally ill person who did not develop brain-fog reactions, or mixed up thought process from hydrocarbon fumes (any fossil fuel that burns, even candles)! I repeat the above information every time I talk or write about Alzheimer’s. If the patient’s family is unwilling to exchange the entire fossil fuel heating system (I mean fuel pipes, heat ducts, everything, every single part must go.) for an electric stove and base board heat, or a heat pump air exchanger the patient will not recover.

One of the surest ways to ruin an infant’s health is to lay him or her, or let youngsters crawl, on new neurotoxic synthetic carpets. Out-gassing fumes have killed mice exposed to air blown over new carpets into their cage. Synthetic carpets, indoor latex paint and pressed board in cupboards are laced with formaldehyde. (Formaldehyde is also an ingredient in some baby shampoos.) As of September 1995, 25 per cent of latex indoor wall paint still contains mercury. Indoor air pollution within the home and in our schools39 can build up four to 10 times higher than outside air. Many foodstuffs are chemically contaminated. Read the Safe Shopper’s Bible, The Consumer’s Guide to Nontoxic Household Products, Cosmetics and Food, by David Steinman, Simon and Schuster, April 1995.

Other chemicals cause brain dysfunction, especially chlorine. Mold also causes brain-fog. All these things and the food connection to Alzheimer’s are covered in depth in Beating Alzheimer’s and in Alternative Approach to Allergies. Those books can save your life.

Please Pay Close Attention: This is Important.

Mercury poisoning (and/or excessive sugar or substitute sugar consumption) causes Candida overgrowth. In its turn, Candida overgrowth causes leaky-gut syndrome. The tissue of our intestines is approximately the size of a tennis court. Imagine a membrane that large, so full of holes that under a microscope it looks like Swiss cheese.

Although Dr. William Crook’s book, the Yeast Connection was published in 1973, by 1982 Candida yeast infection was virtually unheard of in the medical community and, at the time, leaky-gut syndrome had not been discovered. In the winter of 1982 Dr. Randolph read our group of patients a five-line paragraph about Candida and handed us a bottle of Nystatin powder. He said, “Take this Nystatin according to instructions and when you start thinking that you know more than us, you are getting well."The point is: Dr. Randolph an environmental allergist was treating identical chronic diseases in an entirely different way than Dr. Crook. Dr. Randolph was making his patients avoid favorite foods that produced allergic brain-fog reactions or other chronic diseases for a minimum of four days. In four days a specific food passes completely through the alimentary canal. Dr. Crook -- a Candida specialist required his patients to take Nystatin and eat a diet of “complex” carbohydrates. Both treatments were effective. The common denominator was leaky gut syndrome.

Several years ago a story circulated about a fellow in Japan arrested for driving while intoxicated who did not drink. His digestive process manufactured alcohol. I remember my Italian buddies in high school made hooch by throwing orange peels, apple cores, bread and assorted left overs from their sack lunches into a glass jar and letting the mess ferment. They could have added sugared cold cereals, oranges (fruit is loaded with sugar and yeast), soda pop, candy bars, ice cream, noodles, pie, maybe a sandwich, etc. I suspect many teetotalers are their own breweries. If you have flatulence, if you require antacids for burning stomach sensations, the real culprit is not excessive acid. It is low, or in some cases, no stomach acid. You need a Heidelberg stomach acid test, digestive enzymes and HCl. Food must digest properly to supply the brain with nutrients.

The Other End of Mercury Poisoning

The dentist puts mercury in your mouth, but the mercury, that leaches from mercury-silver amalgam fillings (and sugar), feed Candida. Candida bores through the intestines causing leaky-gut syndrome that allows parasites, flukes, fungus and viruses to become systemic. We eliminate flukes in our stool most of the time. Remember the solvents we expose ourselves to, like soap, cosmetics, alcohol, fossil fuel fumes, or diet soda drinks40 and if we have low stomach acid our own internal brewery. Solvents cause the protein shell encapsulating flukes to dissolve and instead of passing into the toilet, they hatch. Then, they suck up our vital juces, compromise our immune system, kill, and eat us.

Dr. Hulda Clark Ph.D. ND reports:

Adult flukes in the brain, if you have toluene, or xylene in it (from carbonated beverages), cause AD! Adult flukes in your liver, if you have propyl alcohol in it, cause cancer! Adult flukes in your thymus, if you have benzine in it, cause HIV disease! Adult flukes in your pancreas, if you have wood alcohol (methanol) in it, (found in carbonated drinks, diet drinks, and some herb tea blends, store- bought water and infant formula,) cause diabetes! If you have adult flukes in your skin, you have Kaposi’s sarcoma. . . . (Adult flukes, if you have solvents in your body, cause many other chronic diseases.)

For the rest of the story

Until recently, it was thought impossible to kill slow viruses that plague humanity. There has been a remarkable breakthrough. Order the Cure for All Diseases by Dr. Hulda Clark. Her book should be available from your local health food store, or Amazon.com.41 I do not know if Dr. Clark has uncovered the cure for “all” diseases or not. Scores of chronic diseases originate from infections within the jawbone so I will be looking forward to further information from Dr. Frank Jerome or Dr. George Meinig and Dr. Clark about the ability of her treatment to kill bacteria within the jawbone. None-the-less, my hat’s off to Dr. Clark for her revelations in the Cure for All Diseases.

This paper was originally written almost three years ago. Since that time I have cautiously examined her information and can say without equivocation that Hulda Clark's discoveries deserve the Nobel Prize in medicine. This breakthrough might be the most important advancement in medicine of the 20th century. Cancer patients do not usually die from chemotherapy, they die from secondary infections while their white blood cell count is suppressed. I suspect that CCU (Critical Care Units) should be able to kill every single pathogen that threatens cancer patients after chemotherapy until the patient's white cell blood count rises and they redevelop their own immunity. This needs further research.

Hydrocarbons, Benzine and Fossil Fuel

There is a more compelling reason than Hulda Clark’s discoveries to avoid Hydrocarbon, Benzine and Fossil fuel fumes that time and space does not permit amplification of within this report. This topic will be covered in my next book. Anyone living near a freeway or a busy street who manifests signs of Alzheimer’s, schizophrenia, endogenous depression, breathing difficulties or cancer ought to move. Petrochemical products contain mercury. Both mercury and Carbon Monoxide bind to the oxygen carrying sights on red blood cells. If that information does not seem important, hold your breath five minutes. Move a minimum of three miles away from freeways or a busy street. Be careful in which direction the prevailing wind blows. Do not move within its path.

Another Important Reminder

Remember, when you get in trouble now and then, crash in your oasis 42 until your thinking clears. Then pull up your socks, tighten your belt and get on with getting well. Keep this thought in mind if you are not getting well: What did not seem important enough to do? Where are you short changing yourself? You are the only one who can do what it takes to recover-not your doctor, or spouse, not anyone else, just you.

Exercise

Fatigue makes cowards of us all. Early in the disease process, I had to crawl up a flight of stairs and rest twice to reach the second floor. The most difficult thing in the world was to push one foot ahead of the other. Unless you literally cannot stand up, walk. If you can only walk a hundred feet, start putting one foot ahead of the other. Go! Tomorrow walk a hundred and ten feet. Keep right on going. If necessary, sit on a trampoline and bounce each day until you regain enough energy to stand. Then walk. May the road rise to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the Lord bless you and hold you in the hollow of his hand.
