Fight Alzheimer’s Disease With Niacinamide

There’s a way to fight back against Alzheimer’s disease by using the nutritional supplement niacinamide. In a study done with mice, the researchers gave them niacinamide which is a type of vitamin B3. They found that it did several things. It reduced one marker of Alzheimer’s disease call “tau protein” by 60%.

It also increased microtubules that carry information to the inside of brain cells. The researchers believe this is allowing more information to get into the cells.

Not only did it bring the mice back to the level where they were before the deterioration, it actually improved the behavior in normal mice.  One of the researchers said that the mice were cured!

Since niacinamide has been used extensively and safely for over 60 year, using it on humans should cause minimal problems. While a few people have reported nausea, cutting the dose in half seemed to stop the nausea.  There was even a book about using niacinamide written in 1943 by Dr. William Kaufman called The Common Form of Niacin Amide Deficiency Disease: Aniacinamidosis.

The recommended dose if 1,000 mg of niacinamide three times a day. You should see symptoms starting to improve in three to four weeks and after three to four months most symptoms will have disappeared.
One note of caution, stopping taking niacinamide would lead to a return of all symptoms within 3 to 4 months.  So…niacinamide three times a day or having Alzheimer’s, which direction should I go? I think the answer is obvious!

A Pill To Enhance Memory Brought To You By Jellyfish

There’s now a pill made from a substance in Jellyfish that is improving memory. The substance is called apoaequorin and it is found in only one species of Jellyfish. It works differently in the brain from other memory enhancers.

While it seems to actually reverse some of the effects of aging on the brain, it also seems to help alleviate the effects of serious neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease).

Three researchers received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their work with apoaequorin to track calcium activity in the body’s cells. This initial work has been taken further and it’s been found that apoaequorin also has a powerful protective effect on brain cells.

One study with 56 people from 20 to 78 showed significant improvements in memory after taking 10 mg of Prevagen (the brand name) daily for 30 days. Fifty percent reported gains in general memory and information retention. One-third did better in recall and a whopping 84% showed improvement in their ability to remember driving directions (wives love this impact on their husbands!).

Other benefits that have been reported include users feeling mentally sharper, having more mental energy and even sleeping more soundly.

If you don’t notice improvements in four weeks, you might need to increase your dosage to 20 mg daily. Also, since Jellyfish are a different species, people with fish or shellfish can use it. So…thank you Jellyfish for have a beneficial use besides stinging people!

Docs are catching up with my recommendations for preventing Alzheimer's Disease

Welcome to my blog. I’ll be posting blurbs once or twice a week similar to what I was publishing in my monthly Teplitz Report.

For years, I’ve been writing about the benefits of exercise, nutrition, relationships, sleep and mental activities including meditation to keep us healthier, living longer, being more productive and having enjoyable lives. It’s been fun for me to see the medical profession as its been catching up with what I’ve been recommending.

The latest “catch-up” is Alzheimer’s disease. In the December 2018 issue of Discover Magazine, the featured article was reporting on researchers using lifestyle changes to fight Alzheimer’s. What are the lifestyle changes that they are recommending? How about reducing chronic stress, getting more exercise and restorative sleep, eliminating toxins from molds, eliminating fast foods that are fat-laden and reducing sugar.

By using Big Data, the researchers are now able to validate how powerful these lifestyle changes can be. Years ago, I wrote how beta amyloids might not be the key to solving Alzheimer’s disease, which is what recent research is now confirming. As a matter of fact, 99% of the drugs targeting the reduction of amyloids have failed to stop Alzheimer’s even if they reduced the amount of amyloids in the brain

.

There is an approach called The Bredesen Protocol that is a comprehensive personalized program aimed to reverse Alzheimer’s by doing a lot of testing which includes blood tests, genetic evaluations, cognitive assessments and an MRI. All this is crunched in a computer which comes up with a plan to reverse inflammation, insulin resistance and the destruction of vital brain functions. The recommendations are where healthy living is recommended rather than drugs. The results border on miraculous!

So…having the medical profession catching up to my recommendations is a very rewarding feeling. I’m looking forward to other catch-ups happening.
