Alzheimer's

Bob Butts believes that if people would simply drink enough water each day they could rid themselves of most ailments, including asthma, allergies, depression, cancer, Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis and muscular dystrophy. The Water Cure: It really is that simple by Richard Rieben

Causes, co-factors: 1. Pesticides:"There are more explosive implications to his -and other's latest research. Mark Purdey says similar organophosphate-induced protein deformation could also underlie Alzheimer's and related diseases. If that were true, the litigation fallout would destroy some pharmaceutical giants, and a lot of very influential noses would be out of joint. In 1996, leading Alzheimer'sresearcher Tsunao Saitoh, 46 and his 13 -year-old daughter were killed in La Jolla, California, in what a Reuters report described as a "very professionally done" shooting. What Alzheimer's Disease, Mad Cow Disease, and CJD have in common, is abnormal brain proteins and a putative link to organophosphates."---Fintan Dunne http://www.cjdalert.com/

"I found one organophosphate � poured on cows to counteract warble fly and on humans for headlice � which bonded with copper in the brain, starving the prion protein of its copper partner. When this happens, foreign metals, such as manganese, are more likely to bond with prions, which can have devastating consequences. Manganese is increasing in the environment due to its use as a fertiliser and fungicide, a lead substitute in petrol, and emission from factories. It was fed to UK cattle in calf milk replacement powder (at levels up to 1,000 times higher than in normal cow's milk) and as supplements for bone growth. Manganese is also fed to humans (in health food supplements), deer (for antler growth) and cats �and all have had prion disease. The totalitarian mindset about the origins of prion diseases betrays an agenda. It's more about global profits for the GM soya protein empires than about the illusory health risks of animal proteins to humans."--Mark Purdey Dec 2002

2. Mercury amalgam dental fillings: "The primary cause of Alzheimer’s is "iatrogenic" disease caused by chronic low level mercurial poisoning from amalgam dental fillings."---Tom Warren

Book: Beating Alzheimer's by Tom Warren

You know, I�m not suggesting that. I am absolutely accusing them of that, because I�ve seen it happen. For example, this was done at the University of Kentucky where I�m located, and they did a study and they published it in the Journal of the American Dental Association: a study that was earlier rejected by the Journal of the American Medical Association and the New Eng-land Journal of Medicine. So they published it in the Journal of the American Dental Association, which isn�t a refereed journal� which isn�t a journal that would normally address neurology or Alzheimer�s disease at all. I mean they�re not competent to review research in this area. Dentists don�t know neuro-chemistry. Then they called a press conference and announced the release. What they actually did report in this JADA study was that they couldn�t find increased mercury level in people who had huge numbers of amalgam fillings. It is the only study that�s ever said that, that you can have a large number of amal-gam fillings and they couldn�t find elevated mercury in these subjects, any elevation of mercury even though they were mas-sively exposed to mercury versus those that weren�t being ex-posed at all. So, they found no differences. They didn�t find that amalgams weren�t correlated. They didn�t find amalgams were correlated or not correlated to anything. In my opinion, it was the assumptions made in the dental amalgam indexing that obfuscated the final analysis.
So again, it�s the construction of confusion by these people by publishing papers that are poorly done, poorly designed, and give them the answer they want which is, �We didn�t find anything wrong, therefore everything is okay.� It�s that old saying you know, �Absence of proof, isn�t proof of absence,� and they try to modify that and say, �Well, if we don�t find anything, we can still say it�s safe.� That�s exactly what they do. The study that was negative, they couldn�t find anything. The only people in the world who ever did a study to show that there was no correlation between mercury, blood or body burden and amalgams, and then announced it saying, �Therefore amalgams have nothing to do with Alzheimer�s disease.� Interview of Dr. Boyd E. Haley byTeri Small:

There is growing evidence, however, that mercury in vaccines and amalgams cause both autism and Alzheimer's disease. Mercury on the Mind by Donald W. Miller, Jr., MD

"In large measure, those martyred by dementia are showing the results of toxicity from mercury, aluminium, lead, cadmium, arsenic and other heavy metals. Their neurons have been poisoned. They are turned into alzheimer’s victims directly through the efforts of dentists who blindly follow the party line of their trade union organisation, the ADA."—Dr Casdorph, M.D.

When I wrote, Beating Alzheimer’s, I realized that, at the time, there was not enough evidence nor did I have the credentials, specifically to write the medical procedures that reversed my downward spiral of short term memory loss, exhaustion, cantankerous disposition, depression and the early signs of dementia. My lack of sophistication about medical politics and processes led me to assume physicians would rapidly put an end to AD, not to try to put the very physicians who know the most about reversing AD and chronic disease out of business. But that’s what happened. Anyone who challenges a mind set (paradigm) of the medical establishment is asking for trouble, especially if the primary cause of AD is "iatrogenic" disease.

"On February 1, 1992, the German Ministry of Health declared a ban on silver-mercury fillings. The German announcement contradict the pervasive and fraudulent pronouncements by the ADA…these two organisations blatantly lie when they say silver-amalgam fillings are harmless to patients……(said) merely to protect American dentists from legal assaults by an angry public."—Casdorph.

"Three thousand doctors of the Toxicology Society came together at a medical conference in Seattle, Washington, several years ago to condemn mercury-silver amalgam fillings. Their revelations should have made banner front page headlines all around the world. Just three short stories appeared in the Press."---Tom Warren

"By the time I finished writing Beating Alzheimer’s three other persons in our hometown regained their short term memory following the identical program that reversed my AD. A daughter of a 93-year-old woman wrote that her mother recovered from AD. The daughter used my book as a guide. I am aware of physicians who use my book to help patients regain their short term memory. Several years ago, a physician reversed his own AD and has returned to full time practice. Two nurses reversed schizophrenia. One nurse told me that he felt like he had recovered from general anesthesia. Occasionally someone tells me that I saved his or her life. They also say years, sometimes ten years, are missing from their lives."---Tom Warren

"Worldwide, conservatively, more than 20 million people have iatrogenic diseases caused by one medical specialty: dentists. The ADA is fighting a rear guard action to keep the public from learning that dentists, by use of mercury-silver amalgam fillings for decades, have poisoned more than 85 per cent of our population. The ADA has covered up its culpability in the same way breast implant and cigarette manufacturers deny disease connection to those products. Potential economic liability to amalgam manufacturers, their distributors, dentists and the ADA is incalculable."—Tom Warren

"Dental mercury amalgams are not stable…they undergo CORROSION, and dangerous amounts of MERCURY VAPOR are daily released….that may be inhaled by the lungs and in that way enter the general blood circulation and pass into the whole body. However far more dangerous are similarly released mercurial FUMES, which instead settle down on the mucous membranes in the upper region of the NASAL CAVITY, from where the mercury is transported directly to the brain! These pathways are either by the OLFACTORY NERVES or by the valve-less cranial VENOUS system that presents an open venous communication between the oro-nasal cavity and the brain."—Patrick Stortebecker, M.D., Ph.D.(Mercury Poisoning from Dental Amalgam)

"Mercuric compounds are the potential sources of the mercuric ion that, at the worst, kills all living things, or, at the very least, causes cellular damage and organ dysfunction. when ingested in any form Mercury produces destructive changes in the mucous membrane linings of the gastrointestinal tract. It enters the blood circulation, travels to the tissues, and then damages literally every cell with which it comes into contact. Mercury molecules, no matter how tiny the amounts that enter the body, cause destruction, particularly in cells of the kidneys, liver, and brain."---Cadorph & Walker

"Worldwide there are over 4000 research papers indicating mercury is a highly toxic substance. How can dentists be so thoughtless as to place one of the deadliest toxins in existence "two" inches from our brain?"—Tom Warren

"You wouldn’t take a leaky thermometer, put it in your mouth, and leave it there 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Yet that’s exactly what happens when an amalgam filling is installed in your mouth."----Dr Michael Ziff.

"It is sobering to realise that the original "quacks" were dentists who advocated the use of mercury amalgam and that most dentists are still advocating it today. Quacksalber is the old German word for mercury."

"The maximum amount of mercury that the Environment Protection Agency allows people to be exposed to is 5,000 times smaller than the permissible amount of lead exposure; in other words the EPA apparently considers mercury to be 5,000 times more toxic than lead."---- Marcia Basciano DDS at annual meeting of IAOMT san diego 1994.

Dr Haley, Ph.D. has produced tubulin defects in laboratory cultures of brain tissue by adding low concentration of mercury plus EDTA, a common food additive. Tubulin defects are thought to be the mechanism which produces the neurofibrillary tangles characteristic of Alzheimer’s Disease.(Quicksilver Associates) http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/pcsol/faq.htm#HaleysResearch

Drs Markesbery’s and Ehmann’s experiments have shown there are higher concentrations of mercury in the autopsied brains of patients who died of Alzheimer’s than are present in the autopsied brains of patients who did not have Alzheimer’s.

Haley, Vimy and Lorscheider reasoned that because mercury vapor from amalgam fillings is absorbed into the sinuses and goes through the blood stream directly to the brain, they might obtain a stronger result by exposing the rats to mercury vapor. The team calculated a dose of mercury vapor that would be the rat equivalent of a humans inhaling the vapor from fillings. They exposed six rats to these carefully-measured quantities over a period of 7 days to 24 days. The result was stunning: all six experimental animals treated with mercury vapor deteriorated markedly.When their tissues were examined, all six rats had brain aberrancies like those found in human Azheimers' patients. In Dr Haley’s words, "The results of this experiment are terrifying. I’m getting the rest of my mercury fillings taken out right now, and I’ve asked my wife to have hers replaced too."

3. Aluminium: Many medicines contain aluminium. Antacids contain from 44mg to 400mg per dose. Over the counter buffered aspirin contain up to 44mg. Over the counter antidiarrheal drugs contain up to 600mg per tablet. Louis Blank who recovered from alzheimer’s (disputed of course) was a heavy user of antacids.

Vancouver neuroscientist Chris Shaw shows a link between the aluminum hydroxide used in vaccines, and symptoms associated with Parkinson�s, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or Lou Gehrig�s disease), and Alzheimer�s.....�This is suspicious,� he told the Georgia Straight in a phone interview from his lab near Heather Street and West 12th Avenue. �Either this [link] is known by industry and it was never made public, or industry was never made to do these studies by Health Canada. I�m not sure which is scarier.� Similar adjuvants are used in the following vaccines, according to Shaw�s paper: hepatitis A and B, and the Pentacel cocktail, which vaccinates against diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, polio, and a type of meningitis....�No one in my lab wants to get vaccinated,� he said. �This totally creeped us out. We weren�t out there to poke holes in vaccines. But all of a sudden, oh my God�we�ve got neuron death!� ----[Media 3/2006 Aluminium adjuvant] Vaccines show sinister side

"The aluminum industry is gathering together all research documents, marketing promotion documents, and trade association documents for that near future time when individual populations worldwide will wake up to the dangers of its aluminum products. Court actions are inevitable. In the meantime aluminum company executives are attempting to win friends for themselves and the industry. For instance, Edward Truschke, the executive director of the Alzheimer's Association headquarters in Chicago, in response to our multiple inquiries, finally admitted that his organization has received unrestricted grant monies from the Aluminum Association of Canada (ALCAN) and from the Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa). He did not acknowledge, but we are aware anyway, that the international Alzheimer's disease medical meeting held in July 1992, in Italy, was sponsored in part by the Aluminum Association of Canada."----Dr Casdorph, M.D. & Dr Morton Walker

Electromagnetic field exposure Sobel et al. (1996) found that workers in industries with likely electromagnetic field exposure have a very significant (p=0.006) increase in incidence of Alzheimer's disease, OR = 3.93, 95% CI: 1.5-10.6. For males the adjusted odds ratio was 4.9, 95% CI: 1.3-7.9, p=0.01, and for females, OR = 3.40, 95% CI: 0.8-16.0, p = 0.01. They note that: These results are consistent with previous findings regarding the hypothesis that electromagnetic field exposure is etiologically associated with the occurrence of AD."

Distilled water DRINK A GALLON OF DISTILLED WATER EVERY DAY!!!!!!! "You should drink at least one gallon of purified water a day. Most of us drink only at mealtime and when we're noticeably thirsty. Wrong. You can develop a habit of NOT drinking water and walk around being 66 or 67 percent water, instead of 74 percent, which is what your body needs.
When you don't have the water in you, you won't ever have the energy you need. The very first thing I do to get people's energy up is to increase the amount of water in their diet. Immediately, their energy goes up.
When someone has dementia, the first thing I do is give them lots of cold water all day, every day. About three weeks later, I start to see their dementia dissipate because they have rehydrated their brains. Unfortunately, your brain actually shrinks as you dehydrate. By drinking lots of pure water, you get better neuron activity and better cellular chemistry, and you're able to detoxify the cells with water.
Water has to be pure, free from fluoride, chlorine, and chemicals, which is why I recommend distilled water. To achieve optimum health, I recommend that you drink a half gallon to one full gallon per day."

1. Chelation: "The Alzheimer's type of dementia does respond rather well to chelation therapy. Fifteen Alzheimer's disease patients, in a private clinical setting, were tested first, then administered chelation therapy, and were observed by loved ones to have returned to normal, or near normal, functioning. It was a gratifying experience for everyone involved with the testing and treatment: diagnostitians, clinicians, health care technicians, the patients, plus their family and friends." -Dr Casdorph, M.D. & Dr Morton Walker (Toxic Metal Syndrome)

Chelation politics: "We can't put these chelation doctors out of business without your help."---FDA administrator Dr Stuart Nightingale in a speech to the AMA House of Delagates, Honolulu, 1984.

"Since 1952 the medical profession has had the means to reduce or reverse the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease."—Dr Casdorph.

Alzheimer’s drugs: Estimates from around �100 per month. 500,000 X 12 X 100= �600 Million (UK), yearly. Times 4 USA, plus an army of expensive medical support.

FINANCIAL DAILY MAIL 20/7/1998: Shire scents bonanza from Alzheimer drug. Shire Pharmaceutical looks set for a bonanza from Galantamine, a drug which was originally refined from daffodils...sales may start in 2000. Up sharply last week, Shire is valued at �700m.

"Our Medical Advisory Panel do not consider it appropriate for the Society to recommend it (chelation) to our members."---Alzheimer’s Disease Society (UK) Caring for dementia.

2. Naturopathic herbalism: "We’ve had numerous people diagnosed with Alzheimer’s who got better; they just come out of it; they are leading normal lives today. And then, of course, what the doctors say is it’s not Alzheimer’s. You run into that Catch-22 all the time. They say, well, it was probably just a temporary premature dementia, and they write-off the recovery to preserve their ignorance."---Dick Shulze, N.D. M.H.

[Coconut Oil] From a comment of Celia Horne about using coconut oil for her aunt's dementia:
She started decompensating, so her doctor put her on meds for dementia. She would have terrible nightmares from the meds. her doctor said that was a good sign that the meds were stimulating her brain. She said, "I'm 88, I don't need that kind of stimulation."
I had read that coconut oil helps memory, so I started her on 1 teaspoon a day in her oatmeal. When Superstorm Sandy hit, we only had three days of meds left. Her appt.was for that day. I doubled her coconut oil and that was the end of the meds.
This past April, she broke her hip. The nurses kept asking me what I gave her. I kept telling them that she didn't take anything, except coconut oil. Most of the nurses are from the Philippines, and they were raised on it. They were shocked at her health and mental clarity. When she was in the rehab, one of the nurses said the doctor had to approve it. I told her that we were keeping her on it because I had already been on the crazy train with her; and I wasn't going back so big pharma could make a few dollars. That shut her up.
I'm reading The Coconut Oil Miracle book by Bruce Fife. Years ago, the tropical oils were used in everything. Then along came the soybean lobbyists and their lies about coconut and other tropical oils. The food industry switched to soybean and corn oil; and we know who hijacked the soybean and corn market. It's all GMO's.
The Pacific Islanders have a very low rate of dementia, heart disease, etc because they were raised on coconut oil. Coconut oil actually protects the body from plaque in the arteries, and the production of free radicals. Free radicals are renegade cells that attack other cells, and greatly contribute to organ damage/failure, aging, disease and death. The bottom line is coconut oil is one of the best things that one can ingest. Canola oil...UGH! Yet we were led to believe that it was good for us. Olive oil can be harmful. Extra Virgin Olive Oil is cold pressed; and that is heart healthy. Coconut oil is the best. I haven't even read the recipes yet. You can buy it at health food stores but I get it online @ vitacost.com 54 oz for $22 You can cook with it (medium heat), or mix it in food, cereals, shakes, etc. I tell everyone that it will help with dementia/alzheimers. I have never seen anyone with meds get better, or any proof that the meds slowed down the disease. But I have witnessed it reverse my aunt's. She knits baby sweaters and blankets, reads 2-3 books per week, and does puzzles.

Nutritional site http://www.nutritional-healing.com.au/dementia_frames.htm

Dr Noades:

"In treating Alzheimer's patients, the following are some of the approaches I've found helpful.

1. Eliminate any sources of aluminum exposure: cookware, utensils, foil, underarm deodorants, drinking water,and any juices and drinks packaged in aluminum-lined cartons. Cut out those vitamins as well as bottled waterpackaged in bottles with aluminum across the top.

2. Undergo a brain and body detoxification program, which should include a supervised fast. Now don't attempt to detoxify on your own. You must have holistic physicians or practitioners who are knowledgeable, competent, and experienced in these practices because if you attempt it on your own, you may come up with some upsetting surprises.

Raw juice therapy helps flush out the toxins and brings an enzyme to the raw nutrients. Colonic irrigation will help clean out the colon of years of accumulated material and help the body function properly. Drinking distilled water, at least in the beginning or for part of the treatment, is also beneficial, along with the use of herbal non caffeinated teas.

3. Have all of your silver, mercury amalgam dental fillings removed from your teeth. Tom Warren, who wrote Beating Alzheimer's, emphasized the importance of this procedure.

4. Bio-oxidative therapies are very effective in bringing oxygen into the brain to make it able to think. These include oxygen chamber therapy, ozone therapy, and hydrogen peroxide, among others. Also, vitamin E, aerobic exercising, and deep breathing in a relatively pure environment can be helpful. The herb gingko biloba is very beneficial.

5. The antioxidants, which work on the brain, are beneficial: vitamin A, thiamine hydrochloride, riboflavin, niacinamide, pantothenic acid, pyrodoxine, B12, folic acid, parameicbenzoic acid, biotin, choline and inositol, vitamin E, vitamin C, vitamin P bioflavinoids (such as quercetin and pignogenol), the sulfur-containing amino acids L-cysteine and L-methionine, and the enzymes such as co-enzyme Q10.

6. EDTA chelation therapy, done intravenously, is very good for removing the heavy toxic metals, which include lead, cadmium, arsenic, nickel, copper, iron, mercury, and aluminum. Despherioximine works well, specifically as an aluminum-chelating agent.

7. Homeopathic remedies will also remove aluminum from the body and the brain. Then you have to take orthomolecular nutritional therapy, intravenously or with intramuscular shots, along with oral supplements of all thenutrients.

8. The clinical ecologists have made a major contribution to treating people with Alzhleimer's disease by recommending that you have a food-rotation diet--in which you eat a variety of foods and no one food more than once or twice a week--thus eliminating the food allergens to which you are generally addicted. You should also eliminate alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, sugar, and foods that are refined, processed, or filled with chemicals and artificial color dyes, and replace them with natural, organically grown wholesome and whole foods.

9. Biomagnetic and electromagnetic pulse therapies are also helpful. Biofeedback, acupuncture,

electro-acupuncture, and ear or auricular therapy can also be tried.

10. There are other nutrient substances that help the brain: An Israeli lecithin substance, AL721, which was originally used to give energy and reduce cholesterol in elderly people, and also was used to combat HIV and AIDS, also helps the brain. You might try Dr. Ana Aslan's treatment called Gerovital (GH3) and live cell therapy, which is illegal in America, but there are places outside that use this therapy. Also take super-triple-phosphotidycholine.

There are supplement companies that manufacture brain formulas, which are composed of various amino acids, enzymes, vitamins, and minerals. Niacin is helpful because it opens up the blood vessels and brings nutrients, blood, and oxygen to the brain. Mineral baths, consisting of sodium, potassium, and magnesium, which get in through the pores of the skin, are also helpful.

11. Herbal remedies are also helpful: cell salts, Bach flower remedies, and homeopathic remedies.

12. Finally, since the brain of an Alzheimer's patient shrinks, we have to rehydrate it with pure water, daily; it takes about six months to compensate for the shrinkage." Dr Phillip Hodes.

"In the case of dementia, my approach is to see whether there are some nutrients that the person may need. Some people have improved quite a bit on a program in which they received injectable B vitamins and magnesium.
Some of these elderly people have difficulty absorbing vitamins and minerals simply because of long-term chronic deficiencies, so an injectable program becomes very, very helpful.
One of the first things I do is give them a trial of some vitamins and minerals by injection and often that will be very helpful. In addition, I have been using EDTA chelation therapy because by using disodium EDTA with magnesium, we find that we're able to reverse some of the aging processes by removing calcium from soft tissues, where it doesn't belong, and trying to get it back into the bone, where it does belong. The chelation process, which is an intravenous treatment, will help with soft tissue decalcification, in addition to removing heavy metals.
There is some research relating aluminum toxicity Alzheimer's disease. Dr. Krapper McCloughlin has done some work in Canada, and we have been doing some work recently too, with patients who suffer from dementia, using another chelating agent called Dephoroximine or Desphoral, which is primarily useful in removing iron and aluminum--and not calcium--from the body. Usually, dementia is a one-way street; people tend to get worse and worse. Using this chelation process, some patients have at least had their dementia process stopped. Some patients have even improved a little using a combination program of supplements, a good diet, and the removal of some of these heavy metals with chelating agents."---Dr Michael Schachter

"I wrote a chapter from our book I published (Toxic Metal Syndrome) in the Townsend Letter on aluminium and promptly a letter came from the aluminium industry of America and that they protested out statements and gave a lot of public relations nonsense in their letter, and they lied, they just outright lied. You don’t hear much about aluminium from, for instance, the Alzheimer’s Disease Association because that Association takes money from the aluminium industry......Edward Truschke, the executive director of the Alzheimer's Association headquarters in Chicago, in response to our multiple inquiries, finally admitted that his organization has received unrestricted grant monies from the Aluminum Association of Canada (ALCAN) and from the Aluminum Company of America (Alcoa).
