Integrative Approaches to Dementia and Alzheimer’s, Part 1
September 9, 2015
Lisa Feiner, co-founder and director of the Sharp Again Naturally foundation, discusses integrative approaches to dementia and Alzheimer’s. The mission of Sharp Again Naturally is to educate the public and medical community about reversible causes of dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease, and advocate for new testing and treatment protocols. While a drug “fix’ for Alzheimer’s remains elusive, despite billions spent on research, lifestyle measures and integrative strategies are increasingly becoming validated. A new study by UCLA researcher Dr. Dale Bredesen yielded 90% success in a small trial involving diet modification, exercise, targeted supplementation, and stress reduction. What might be the key components of an anti-dementia diet? What supplements are plausible for Alzheimer’s reversal? How can coconut oil be employed in an Alzheimer’s reversal program? What role might environmental toxicity play in cognitive decline? How does polypharmacy increase the risk of dementia in the vulnerable elderly? Are hormones a factor? With input from the public and the medical community, Sharp Again Naturally is trying to instigate a profound paradigm shift in our current one-dimensional drug-oriented approach to cognitive decline.

Replenishing Cells, Increasing Energy. Part 1
September 8, 2015
Update on Lipid Replacement Therapy with NT Factor. John Casey, founder and CEO of Nutritional Therapeutics, Inc (NTI) explains the rationale behind a unique ingredient, NT Factor. A special formulation of phospholipids derived from natural food sources, NT Factor replenishes cell membranes, crucial to energy metabolism. It also acts as a delivery system to enhance bio-availability of critical nutrients. As we age, in disease states or under stress, membrane glycolipids are damaged and depleted, resulting in impaired cellular and mitochondrial function. This is the underlying mechanism behind a wide array of degenerative disorders, chronic fatigue, as well as aging in general. John Casey details research validating the supporting role NT Factor may play in chemo fatigue, CFS, Gulf War Syndrome, post-Lyme symptoms and aging; Is NT Factor compatible with medications? Who’s a candidate for NT Factor? What forms are available? What is Propax? How long does it take to work? Is it safe to take with medications?Click HERE for part 2.
