I felt like I was getting early onset dementia when I was working in an office that had a cell antenna on a building across the street. Luckily, I figured out what was happening and was able to protect myself and heal.
@@heartoflotus correct, fresh air /sun/snow/rain all part of beautiful nature sense them all feel alive , and good simple food
I have always felt that oxygen supply to the brain is key. We brought it on ourselves when we started walking upright. I reckon the high you get from exercise is little to do with endorphins etc but due to the faster heart beat managing to pump more blood to the brain, making this feel good.
@@richardoverthrow1358
When exercising your muscles produce lactate to power themselves, the extra lactate is released into the blood and is an alternate source of energy for the brain beyond glucose or ketones.
Living alone has allowed me to be peaceful in my own space. I eat real food and am not constantly hounded by the selfish demands of other people. Super happy: being alone does not mean being lonely... it means I enjoy my own company and learning even more.
Like many things, it depends on the individual. Someone can live alone, but interact with others all day online and on the phone, while others will live alone and just veg in front of soap operas.
@@ChrisW228 Precisely! Everyone is not the same... there are some people who are NOT social animals!
Totally agree! I love being alone!
Ditto.
Good post.
Thank you.
Good for you enjoy
I think many 65+ women are happy to be free of the demands of other family members. A lifetime of taking care of others can really take it out of a woman.
Amen, Biddydib!
Oh please. Men and women are equal but different. Try being the sole bread winner for a family, knowing that at any time you could be fired.
@@CrochetNewsNetwork Equal? Bulsh1t. Women are paid less for the same job. Women's careers are often curtailed or ended when the kids come along. Women bear the brunt of child rearing and housework. Try being a single mother, having to look after the kids and work, while dad is nowhere to be found.
That is so true. I've spent most of my life looking after others both professionally & in my personal life. I'm in my late 60's now &this is my time.
I travel around europe every year for 9 months in my motorhome with my husband
@@linm9598 I’m happy for you. 😎
Living alone has allowed me to have real food in my house and no junk food. I see enough people. Not lonely at all. 😂
So you're not isolated, which is what the video was about
Yes I love being alone.
Every time my husband goes to visit his dad, the week starts off with his dad very confused. By the end of the week he remembers mostly everything. The social aspect is huge!!!

@staezie2221 Wow! Danke für dein posting!!!
So true. It is too easy to medicalise social problems, and to overlook our responsibilities to our elders.
I live by myself at 77 yrs old and I am so totally happy with my own company during the week especially. I worked for 45 years and now I love reading, doing puzzles and word games and crossword puzzles. I see at least some of my family members almost every weekend. My four children are on a group text with me every single day where we encourage one another, keep up about my grandkids and talk to my cousin and daughters at least a couple of times a week. I am a very happy person!
God Bless you!
Amen😃
This doctor has integrity and morals. I'm surprised he hasn't been sacked.
They did once and keep trying.
@@TippyPuddlesOh no!! Well, THAT figures!! I should have thought about that! I think he is a GOOD DOCTOR!! I hope he can keep his channel for a good long time!!

Sorry, my reply was meant for @alisonbarfoot 2402. My bad!
Don't curse God. His son, Jesus, died a painful death on the cross to save you from your sins. He loves you. Please accept him as your Savior. Find a good Bible believing Church . Growing old can be hard, but if you are saved by the blood of Jesus, when you are in Heaven, you will enjoy perfect health for eternity. I am praying for you. And for any believers out there, I would appreciate your prayers. Thank you.
69 this year!! I do not go to doctors at all, no jabs. Plenty of gym work, photography, keto & a great immune system.
Thanks Dr ❤❤
With gym & photography one can never get bored ! 👍🏽
Me too until CLL!
Yeah,
I'm 65 and I'm getting ready to play ice hockey this evening.
I play on a intermittent skill level hockey team. Some of the guys are younger like 20s, 30s, 40s, some 50s.
Exercise can be fun! Some guys call me the old man. I take it as a play edge of Honor!
A good diet, exercise and the camaraderie of playing a team sport.
These three combinations will result in a strong heart a good attitude!
My cardiologists told me to keep on doing whatever it is I am doing because my heart is strong!

I love it!!!
Great genes.
I needed surgery last year. I'm 70. When the doctors asked me about my regular medication, I said I'm not taking anything. They almost told me off, as if something was wrong with me.
Had the same experience. The nurse at my eye specialist said she’d never had a patient my age, not on any medication.
Me too, they act like I’m an alien, maybe I am.

“Why are people against fats?” ..decades of the sugar industry blaming fats for obesity to allow them to continue obscuring sugar’s role.
1000000% agree with you they see the good fats as evil and yet they put sugar in everything , people are too lazy to research so whatever now .
There are seed oils and highly processed oils that are so carcinogenic idk why people ignore. Same with meat. Carcinogenic.
I totally agree with you. Humans have always eaten fats the fats around the vital organs of an animal are full of vitamin D and essential minerals. I live in a cold damp gray place where there is little sunshine. The low-fat and then the cholesterol pills are a recipe for dementia as our brains are made primarily of fats and water. I eat plenty of fat and avoid the sugar.
It's a real struggle to include fats in my diet!!! It's too many years of listening how bad fat is. I was a creature of muffins (don't touch ham and eggs!!!; I ate "I can't believe it's not butter"" and eliminated real butter for good. But I'm doing my best and against old wives tales I think I'm eating right!!!! Thank you
@@user-fi3pf3oo1u God Bless you don't worry about it that is just as bad. We are all manipulated in too many ways.
Statins….Jabs…….sugar…processed food ..
I'd add the obvious--higher intensity physical activity and *he* focused on social interaction and mental activity.
My mum has had all 3. And she has dementia. Her quack stopped the statins.....too late.
@@Mrbfgray intensity? Unless you're already very fit and have been fit for years, people engaging in high intensity physical activity can get hurt and there goes all the activity.

@@thereignofthezero225Genetics loads the gun. Lifestyle pulls the trigger.
My father started having a mental status change at 82 over a month. It came to the point the he started having sudden screaming fits. We and he was staring a lot. We took him to the ER and they admitted him into to the hospital. The hospital staff would sometimes look at him like he was crazy. But we knew he wasn’t. He is super sharp and still goes to work and work on things every day. Until this started. Why, some of the nursing staff was puzzled because in the afternoons, he would seem to be totally with it. The hospitalist walked in the room without talking to us or my family apparently just reading notes in the chart and told us that this was dementia. We said dementia doesn’t come on so quickly like this, but he insisted it was dementia, and said, sometimes this happens, patted me on the back and left the room. He would not change his mind about the diagnosis we refused to accept this. We had neurology get involved, and the neurologist had a spinal tap done. Most of it was all normal, but there was one area of suspicion. The neurologist had a hunch that maybe he had auto immune encephalitis. They treated him with IG therapy and he was completely normal and has been ever since. If we weren’t there to advocate for my father, he would’ve been diagnosed with dementia, and probably would’ve died. I wonder how many people who don’t have family or anyone to advocate, for them actually have autoimmune encephalitis in our diagnosed as dementia or mental illness instead.

Hearing loss is a significant factor in social isolation, confusion, and cognitive impairment
That really needed to be said. To make it even worse, hearing loss can mimic cognitive impairment and cause people to talk to the subject even less. It does not take long for a person to drift out of the social scene if they can hear, but not well enough.
Dr. Dhand, I dropped sugar and processed foods, went on an 18:6 intermittent fast on a ketovore diet. Dropped 52 pounds and got off 4 prescription medications at 61. I take nothing now. I was however one of those conspiracy theorists that wouldn't take the flu shot.
Every year immunologists have to guesstimate which strain of the Flu will flourish during the winter. They have only a 40 percent chance of guessing correctly, IOW, the odds are that they will make the wrong guess.
Funny how the year we stopped taking the flu shot I stopped having my annual near death trip to the ER for breathing difficulty and fluid in my lungs. Six years of that BS just because we had insurance and the shot was free. 🤦🏼♀️
As you no doubt realise, The popular use of the slur "conspiracy theorist" ( esp by corporate media, )is designed to short circuit thought processes . It is a very effective conditioning tool.
You are wise.
Good for you! 👍
My father lived over half of his life as a type 2 diabetic, his doctors were all too happy to administer drugs and tell him to diet but staying alive was all they helped him accomplish. When my mom passed my sister took over cooking for him and she found some low carb Broccoli and Cauliflower salad recipes that kept my father happy without pasta, rice and garlic bread at every meal. After 42 years of being chemically treated for type 2 his doctors tests showed that he no longer had diabetes.
Somebody give that sister a raise! I hope you give her all the credit, and celebrate her intelligence!
Excellent news! I'll try that, too! I'm currently weening my husband off carbs, but I swear the darn metformin makes him crave sugar and carbs and he thinks he's hungry all the time! He gets enough food to keep his pre stroke weight, when he was very healthy and well muscled. I have to tell him everyday, metformin will make you obese if you don't watch it. I have to tell him, LOOK at your plate! It's full, a normal sized plate. He's half paralyzed from the stroke and can't afford to go over 200 lbs and be able to walk with his cane. I got the doc to cut his metformin in half, and corrected (nagged him about) his diet, and his numbers are great every visit.
The key for my father was finding foods that were desirable substitutes for the simple carbs his body turned into spikes.
Marvellous. Well done, your sister, and you, for being there for your dad.
Thank you. That is encouraging to me - someone with Type 2 and fighting to get it down.
Big ones are obesity, poor sleep, lack of exercise and lack of brain stimulation.
My BMI says I am obese. I am 66, take no medication, am a regular blood donor, go to aquafit 3 to 4 times a week, I read my beloved books, walk my dogs, and work full time nights as a PSW. I have learned to say no, I must sleep! I feel very good! Moderation is the key!😊
Oh, I forgot to say, I am very social, church choir, Christmas choir, pizza and movie night with friends, hockey games with friends...😊
Overmedication and lack of communication - what an excellent well honed medical system we have.
Lack of proper food for the brain, walnuts raw walnuts... Is the proper fat for the brain. And raw nuts helps... Punkin and chia seeds etc preferably nuts and seeds daily..
@@yellowdayz1800 you can have my share of nuts and seeds.
(but I'll keep the macadamias....)
Sick and Stooopid..... Created by the Rockefellers. See origin of medical and public school systems 😮
A huge contributor to overmedication is having too many doctors. As we age it is common to have a GP, a cardiologist, and another form one of many fields in which individuals fall.
I only have had one regular doctor (at a time) for more than a decade. However, they retire, or leave, or the medical practice leaves town. Just in the last five years five doctors or PAs have tinkered with my medications. I accept the prescriptions and adjust my BP meds to minimize the number of them and just bring my BP in line. If I took them all my BP would be dangerously low some of the time.
Fifteen years ago my GP was adamant I take thyroxin, and since then various doctors have continued it blindly until my present doctor. She was amazed - it is apparently rare for a 70 year old man to need thyroxin, and I have never had any of the symptoms of low thyroid.
Big pharma
I became a "mother" at around 13 to my siblings because my narcissistic mother has always been entitled and lazy, but didn't realise it till much later in life. As a superwoman I also attracted a weak, dependent man. Fortunately with God's grace, I realized all this and cut them off - the narcissists and enablers who are just as guilty. My precious daughters are now mature, educated and responsible who understand how damaged I have been, and at 60 am finally at peace 😊.
Don’t forget STRESS…….Stress plays a big part in physical disorders.
Perpetual and unmanaged stress, yes
I retired at age 65, not because of waning physical ability but because of job stress. Being on call 24/7/365 for 34 years will do that. I had an ER visit because my BP had spiked to 298/140something. Within a month after retirement I had to stop one of my BP meds because my BP was too low.
Now most of my activity is walking in the neighborhood; no more tower work. I think it is better this way.
All of my stress comes from taking care of someone with ALZ 😞
This is why Narcissists stress people out. It keeps their comparative intact.
I have my books, my foreign language manuals, my cds and my movies and i am blissfully happy not to be around people . This is one of the best times of my life. I exercise, avoid seed oils and excess carbs. I take no medications. I eat grass fed beef and grass fed butter and i do periodic fasting.

EXCELLENT as I am living similar to your life and thank you very much for sharing your information with me and helping others on TH-cam to help better their lives. 💓❤
❤️this post..me too!
Most people haven't got much else than gossip to talk about anyway.
Books, CDs, And other electronic media are not the same as face to face social interaction. They brain needs exercise in from of two way banter that forces us to form thoughts, speech, and ideas on the fly. There is also no replacement for a warm handshake or hug from real person. No electronics or book can give you that.
Wow!!! Even our own doctors don't tell us that! You are a diamond. Thank you.
sign up for his blog , you will communicate with likewise people and will engage into dialogs with the doctor.
He would be sued if he did, not written in the guide lines equals law suits
Doctors are incentivised to give out meds.
How can they when they only see you for 10 minutes, if you’re lucky.
Don’t forget eating unrefined salt. Older people are typically told to eat a low sodium diet - less than 1500 mg daily. The average person needs more than that.
That's true.
They way forward on the salt front is to use sea salt. Because it's better for our bodies health, as it contains natural minerals, that the others types of salt don't have.
It's the only salt, that I now use.
And I've been filtering water for years.
@@lindadoughty9252Iodine is important. Which is probably not in natural salt, but is added to common salt.
Very true, an older lady I know ened up in hospital and was told by drs to consume more salt.
My sister almost died from an has permanent damage from going on a salt free diet. Had a breakout of herpes shingles on her head and it left brain damage! ! Salt helps the body process protein. Has been in complete "medical care" for 5 years, now. She used to take 15 Rxs before that, too....nuts.
@lindadoughty9252 good luck with microplastics, Linda.
Statins, due to their lowering of cholesterol, is a major contributor to the high increase in dementia over the last 50 years. The brain is comprised of a large percentage of cholesterol, so it is not surprising that dementia was rarely seen until the advent of statin drugs.
I believe that's how my thin, fit mother got dementia. She weighed 110, had no insulin resistance, though she did have high bp which she was on meds for. She died at 86 of Alzheimers'.
Was just about to comment the same thing' but you beat me to it.
I have heard that dementia didn't come around until statins were invented.
@@commonsense6967 So sorry that your mother had that horrific disease. These drugs can cause such horrible problems.
Statins however play a good role - I have a high risk of a stroke - I take my statin.
I'm 63 I don't own a car I cycle everywhere I do about 2500 Mi of Summer on the bicycle trail I don't eat sugar I don't drink pop and I do all my own cooking and avoid processed food
same, and I eat newspaper once a week
@@OGillo2001 🤣
Switched my 73yo mom over to carnivore diet after I saw a massive cognitive decline after her Parkinson's diagnosis....it only took 30days and I had my mom back, she could follow conversations once more. After 60days she no longer has arthritis pain, her gut is back on track, she was so thin and now is adding weight and muscle, she is less anxious and depressed. After 90days she's back in her own house and taking care of herself easily. It's like watching a miracle take place.
Wonderful report on your Mom. Good for you!...
Everyone I knew who had dementia was watching their cholesterol and using statins. Dementia was rare prior to the fake govt created cholesterol hoax in 1977.
Can You let me know what specifically she ate? I am thin, want to gain muscle and strength! I am a healthy 70 yr old woman!
@@cptmccoy I don't know if this will help, but just today I was reading up on health benefits of eating sweet potatoes and I think it mentioned muscle benefit. Check it out, friend.
The medical industrial complex is worried. Too many good doctors escaping their grasp, out there actually healing people!
Not enough good doctors like this one.
For people in the USA on Social Security and Medicare, be very cautious about the meds prescribed to you. They want you "off the books". Don't listen when they tell you it's all in your head if new meds make things worse. Research side effects and be aware, keep a journal. Tell the doctor,"No." If a pill makes you have more problems.
Just say no to drugs.
@@commonsense6967😂😂❤❤
Also, use your common sense. One or two meds are probably OK. Do your own research. Learn about what you are taking and take some control.
Alcoholism is a reason my sister at age 52 years old has dementia, she is in nursing home since 2015, I am her guardian for 14 years. I am 72 yo and this year I find myself not wanting to go visit her but I force myself 3 times a week to go. She no longer speaks or feeds herself and is in a wheelchair. It is so difficult seeing all the residents just lying there in wheelchairs every day non verbal and cannot move. If we had a pet suffering like this we would help them leave this world. I am just so sad for her, no one else in my family goes to visit, she is baby of nine siblings. Not even her daughter. Shame on them. Alcohol-related dementia (ARD) is a form of dementia caused by long-term, excessive consumption of alcohol, resulting in neurological damage and impaired cognitive function. i think over medicated is also cause of my older sister’s strokes and loss of kidney function and stroke dementia. It’s a sad world.
Don't murder your sister! Pray for her.
Ask for a lumbar puncture, aka spinal tap. Someone here posted about their dad. IG therapy. Look for the post. My dad didn't drink, and he, too, was on the cusp of dialysis.
@@vivrowe2763 Praying will do nothing, never has it saved anyone from dementia or any illness.
@@gill8779...never say never. You don't know.
Agree about over medicating seniors.
All too common sadly
Seems like the advent of BP and Statin prescriptions are the beginning of the downfall for way too many elderly patients.
Oh, not just seniors. They over-medicate everybody for everything now. My Dads' girlfriend got given Percocet for a bladder infection a few months ago. I got prescribed anti-psychotics for anxiety and anger due to severe abuse. I used to live in a long-term care home that was trying to get me to take laxatives every single day. And if anybody develops dementia or other health issues due to over-medication, then they prescribe them MORE medications to treat it.
This has all happened within the last year. The whole medical industry is nothing but a profit machine now. 😒
Sorry I can't agree with this video, at least not in its entirety. My husband is from a developing world country
An uncle of his is as thin as a rail. He was a vibrant man who had been a school principal, multilingual, and, as part of a very large family, definitely did not live old age in isolation
And he's in dementia. An aunt of mine frequently ate fast food and didn't exercise and get, guess what? She's in dementia too.
@@goddesstc Agreed 💯. My 80 odd year old mother has a weakened Achilles tendon.
She may be discontinuing statins, remembering that they're associated with muscle weakness. Neither parent is in dementia, though.
I've been alone for a decade. I'm enjoying life, I take walks with my camera and have no stress.
I’m 70 years old and I can’t wait to not know what the fuck is going on.
😂😂😂😂
Ah come on now , things can’t be that bad?
I'm with you!!!!🤣

Unfortunately, there is no good doctor to speak to, that's why we watch your videos faithfully. Thank you for all you do.
My pleasure- happy to help
How to find a "good" doctor? Much more complicated than finding a good mechanic? Why? Professional courtesy or fear of litigation?
I've come to suspect guilty until proven innocent. The medical industrial complex has passed the tipping point where the bad out majority the good.
Physicians report to insurance companies. Their payers. If they don't follow the insurances Quality Measures rules the get penalties and lower reimbursement
Exactly right that we cannot find any good doctors. All here insist that medication and /or surgery is necessary. My husband was forbidden to return to local urologists and hospitals because he refused to take prescription drugs and have unwanted risky surgeries.
So he has to drive 3 hours away to get his s.p. catheter changed.
Just been discussing with my partner before I watch this video that the brain needs cholesterol (good fats)
Isolating might be a risk factor for those that experience loneliness. I have family and friends but isolating is my happy place. 🙏🏽🌸
I’m 72 and take no medication. My doctor told me I have the blood pressure of a healthy 18 year old. I am intelligently plant-based (nutritarian), no salt, no sugar, no oil, no alcohol, no junk food, and I exercise at the gym regularly. Shooting for 100+. Health can be maintained at any age with discipline.
I'm the same!!❤❤❤
The salt myth. It's an essential mineral and electrolyte. We need it in moderation.
@@misst.e.a.187 We get plenty of salt from food if we are eating correctly. Added salt is bad for our heart. I haven’t used salt in years, and now a plain baked potato with nothing on it tastes salty.
Sodium channels! They need salt to function. It is then a question of how much. The effect of salt on BP is under review.
I think that you are much more likely than most to achieve that goal.
I am one of those nuts that avoids pharmaceuticles. I am 67. I lived a life of excess junk food, My doctors, at the VA hospital, have been warning me about my high blood pressure since my 20s.
Three years ago I began eating much better food. I pretty much now follow the Keto way. I asked the VA to send me a blood pressure monitor.
For the first time in my adult llife, I am normal blood pressure, and is staying there. I was 250 lbs, at 5' 9", I am now 162 as of a few minutes ago.
NO Big Pharma interference. I had a strole just as I started Keto. I had filled my veins with junk, so in my 50s I began to get blocked arteries. I had two strokes with four heart attacks with a quad bypass. My doctor on the bypass said 100% of my left side coronary arteries were blocked. The bypass put me in the ICU for 45 days, usually about a week.
Once home from the bypass, I was given 15 medications by the VA to take home with me. I dropped them all and worked my own plan to recover.
Now, just with good eating, and walking, (I am a 50% disabled veteran, and cannot work out), I am consistantly taking 2 mile walks.
The second stroke I had is nearly gone. With no meds. I have some minerals and other natural suppliments, but nothing produced by the hugely profit moivated pharmaceuticle industry.
I feel fine. I am told I look 10 years younger. I live in a great place to walk, I am about a half mile from the beach and half mile from Mission Bay. My goal for the summer is to walk from my home to Sea World, three miles away. A six mile round trip.
Good for you!
Good for you! Very good! 🙏🏼🤗🌿
Your story is inspiring!
What about if you enjoy being alone?
That's different then, as long as your brain is receiving stimulation eg by reading books. Lots of elderly tend to vegetate in front of their TV watching mindless garbage
@@now591depressed maybe as they know life is over. Sad
I prefer to be alone too. I think people like you and me engage in activities that stimulate the brain. I'm 65 and got my associates degree a few years ago. I'm in sterile processing and am obtaining subsequent certifications. I like all the do it yourself home projects. I am a hobbyist of many, many things. I keep my brain going as well as my body. You'll be fine.
I agree. 🤗 @@TippyPuddles
I spent 5 yrs in Asia. It is common to see large groups of elderly doing Tai Chi in the park at sunrise. Many, many are still working and or playing chess in their 80s. They also DO NOT cook with aluminum pots in China. Dementia in China is MUCH lower than in West. There is a link between aluminum and dementia. I cut out aluminium cookware and aluminum in deodorants.
What do you cook in?
@@yf3061 When I heard about the aluminum/dementia connection I threw out every aluminum pot and pan I owned. I now only use stainless steel, cast iron.
You cook in stainless steel
They are also genetically different.
@@beentheredonethat814 Thank you
Thank you for your podcast! I'm 70, retired RN of 35 yrs. You are right on!!!
I love your show I used to work in geriatrics for years and years as a nurses aid and later an RN ,and I had actually seen improvement in my dementia patients when I would do a med review and we could do away with some repetitive meds
I isolated myself for four years after I lost my son to suicide. Not going anywhere, very minimal contact with others and having my shopping delivered. It was necessary for my mental health and grief at the time. After four years I started to observe negative and worrying changes in my thinking and behaviour. I decided to do something about it before it was too late. I have recently changed my home from rural isolation to town living and have made a point of daily walks, whatever the weather, to the shops and to get back into the real world of social interaction. I can see and feel the difference in myself. I don't feel like the 'weird' aging woman anymore and feel more rational and in control of myself. I agree with this helpful advice given in this video.
My dad is so lucky; he has diabetes, managed with pills. He is slightly overweight, and is 91 and no dementia. I put it down to having a Greek wife and eating a Mediterranean diet.
I think You may well be correct!. We need to see Mediteranean recipes plastered over social media! Good luck and good health to you all!.❤
Yes, your dementia related correlation hypothesis with these conditions is a logical connection. At 69, I have mobility issues, not so attentive neurologists, or maybe not concerned because I'm on Medicare that makes me leery of the medical establishment. As a loner most of my adult life I've been aware of the pitfalls of isolation. Yes, I have contact with people however I have a ferocious appetite for truth and knowledge and studying and reading doesn't lend itself to company. Your work providing medical information is invaluable. You'll note that Dr John also provides this same type of format as you. Go figure, two Brits laying it out exposing potential pitfalls in the medical system tickles me. LOL
Yeah very beware of Medicare. Next they'll be pushing assisted suicide like Canada.

Some excellent mobility exercises on TH-cam. One walk backwards at home or out for 30 seconds or more. Just make sure the path is clear, u can stretch your hands out to make sure there's no obstruction. Another small low step apparatus needed - put one foot on n off 10 times then other. Then there's exercises for vagus nerve which helps with mobility and subliminal music. Sapien, Lucy Herzig and many others. ❤
@@nishurao7932 Thanks for your concern and advice.
Also, cholesterol lowering drugs will contribute to dementia as well as diet sodas and sweeteners. They affect the brain, liver and kidneys.
Hope they haven't damaged mine. I've taken them for 30+ yrs. and at 79 I have clean arteries on US and a normal nuclear cardiac stress test. MRI of my brain is remarkably good. Think I'll keep doing what I have been doing.
Low carb diets have actually been found to reverse dementia symptoms. Some prolonged fasting should do it even more quickly, especially if you refeed on a low carb diet. We're not supposed toe at all day! Some benefits of occasional extended fasting and lowering carbs in the diet: High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time, including in the heart and lungs.
Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. When insulin is high, vit D stays locked in the blood cells.
Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion plaques, growths and pathogens by the immune system. This will also remove spikes quicker, whether natural or unnatural in origin!
Your body recycles up to 1/3 of all immune bodies in a 72h fast, rejuvenating your entire immune system. This helps prevent the onset of new autoimmune conditions, which develop through a leaky gut and damaged immune system.
Blood sugar and insulin are lowered when fasting, reducing inflammation and allowing the immune bodies to move freely through the body.
Fasts from 36-96 h increase metabolic rate due to norepinephrine release!
Fasting restores your circadian rhythm to normal over time.
T cells and T reg cells are vital in fighting cancer, autoimmune disease and infections but as we age the thymus stops making as many of them. Fasting releases stem cells, which then can become new T cells. It also releases growth hormone, which regenerates the thymus itself!
Fasting restores NAD+ and increases nitric oxide release to open blood vessels.
Reflexes and short term memory are increased.
Fasting increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors and increases average telomere length in stem cell pools.
Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures.
When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell required for viruses to replicate.
What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast but most teas and herbs are OK. Supplements and meds often break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting.
Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building.
Fasting activates autophagy (literally self eating). This will cause cells to recycle damaged proteins and foreign matter such as viruses.
Lowering insulin via fasting virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body.
Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue!
The obese will lose loose skin while fasting, but the frail will have increased growth hormone release, which helps to make more lean tissue and reduce frailness.
Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility for some women.
It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitochondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism, fighting infection and cancer prevention!
24h of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half! This reduces leptin resistance, which impairs immune function.
Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system, just like the effect of CBD oil
Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers. Some patients may need continued acid reduction medication while fasting. When the fast is completed, your stomach acid levels will be normalized.
Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids.
Fasting releases BDNF and NGF in the blood. This stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth, which can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers.
When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with.
Fasting increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level.
When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, destroying them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer.
A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs.
Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. They also help with dementia and many other issues even if you take them while not fasting!
Glycine and trimethylglycine can also be useful supplements while fasting that won't break ketosis and have many benefits.
Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness or tremors, then simply break the fast and seek advice.

@@user-ip8zo7wn6d You are very welcome!
Having taken care of both my parents, who suffered from vascular dementia related to Afib and stroke, I appreciate your help! It is a long, hard but precious journey with our loved ones. 🕊
I to take care of my husband who has Vascular dementia, I know what your going through .
@@loissmith9035God bless you and your beloved husband.
@@loissmith9035I cared for my sister who sadly passed away on the 27 March who also had vascular dementia it still breaks my heart to think should of I done better seeing her detoreate though a wicked illness.
@@zuzuspetals8323yes it's a cruel wicked illness, I cared for my sister who sadly passed away on the 27March and it still breaks my heart to think should of I done better.
My mother is on four BP medications . She is 93. Her BP is still an average of 188 ( top number). It was up at 215 for two days. She is obsessed with it. Her kidneys are shot too. So we are at her nephrologist every 12 weeks. I don’t understand why at 93 they just can’t let people go off meds. They’d probably feel better. I personally at 65 refuse medications to prolong my life, but I do mostly protein and vegetables with fats.
Well isn't it really solely up to her whether she takes the poisons the quacks try to push?
At 91 and after years of my mother having low blood pressure, she went for a health check up and on that one occasion her blood pressure was higher than normal, the GP immediately put her on Statins, we told mum to refuse them, she did, she is now 96 still going strong and her blood pressure is still low. Doctors and their propensity to over prescribe are bad for your health, best to stay away unless you are seriously unwell!
My doctor is concerned about my cholesterol. He asked me if he should prescribe something for it. I told him he could prescribe it if it would make him feel better, but I wouldn’t take it.

One of the major causes of dementia that no one ever mentions is ALCOHOLISM! When I was a medical student, this became immediately clear to me. True Alzheimer's disease was actually rare; there were so many other identifiable causes of dementia such as: multi infarct dementia (due to atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, subacute bacterial endocarditis or other vaso-occlusive diseases), occult thyroid disease (apathetic hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism), vitamin B12 deficiency/combined system disease, etc.
But ALCOHOLISM was number 1, 2, and 3 as causes of dementia. Think about it: after a lifetime of intoxication, drinking to the point of blackouts, binge drinking and withdrawal, and maybe a few episodes of delirium tremens, how intact do you think the fragile organ known as the brain is? Not intact at all! Even a lifetime of milder drinking affects the brain.
As a medical student and medical intern, we saw a lot of substance abuse. Marijuana smokers were spacey and forgetful, heroin abusers were OK mentally as long as they didn't get infections like bacterial endocarditis, but alcoholics were noticeably stupider than the rest. And if there was also liver disease they could get true encephalopathy.
I've also seen alcoholism close-up. Several family members who were exceptionally bright in youth, became shuffling sloppy drunks, depressed, and ultimately demented late in life.
Perhaps isolation is not an independent variable but a marker for alcoholism. They do tend to go together.
and people who never drink??
Dementia is a very recent, modern disease. And largely western. Alcoholism, on the other hand, has been around for centuries! Thus your comments do not make sense.
Alzheimer’s is a horrific disease, beyond words and especially for loved ones to watch their loved one lose their mind is heartbreaking! Mo mom passed from alzheimer’s in 2022, we took care of her at home ! She was an avid walker everyday, ate healthy and never drank or smoked! My dad passed and 5 years later my mom developed lymphoma, she had chemo and then she got alzheimer’s and I think the chemo had something to do with it and stress of my dad passing! I miss her everyday!
I'm 71, male. Fairly simple diet, no processed foods. Work part time loading pallets with merchandise, nice workout, js.
Im a 63 yr old female. I used to do hospital pharmacy receiving unloading & loading up pallets of iv solutions, 4 & 5 gallon cases of absolute alcohol, cases of bulk merchandise, etc. Did that till i retired at 55. I couldve kept going, retired for other reasons. I miss that daily workout.
Thank you! ❤ I am 67. I intentionally isolate... I do not like people much. Also a Type 2 Diabetic. I have cut all sugar and doing Keto...my blood sugar went from 219 -147 in 5 days. Doing Dr. Berg's Liver Cleanse. Skipping breakfast and doing my eating in a 4 hour window. Also I am doing the 8 hour Berberine and Panax Ginseng which is said to mimic Ozempic. Also doing a metal cleanse with a Zeolite Compound.
That’s quite a regime. Just how long do you think you can sustain this life style?
@@michaelbirke6050 43 days...then I can add in some dairy and a bit more protein. Right now I am doing huge salads and with keto dressings and 4 oz. of higher carb veggies like brussel sprouts, eggplant, cauliflower etc, and 4 oz.of lean meat, chicken, fish...no pork. Actually pretty full and sugar cravings are lessoning.
Go Carnivore and you don’t need money making “liver cleansers”. That T2 will be gone. Carbs are not your friend
@@bambineal1956
Watch Dr. Chaffee’s video about plants and how they are trying to kill us. You might want to try ditching the plants for two months and see how you feel.
@@jeep-australia 🥰 But, with the liver cleanse, it will edge me out of my fatty sugar filled liver much faster. I am an instant gratification personality. Like fast results...all or nothing.I think carbs are indeed my friend....the healthy ones.😉
Thank you Dr. Dhand for reporting this. Way too many people blindly believe that all drugs are good for them.
'Use it or lose it' applies to both physical and mental activities. Good diet and walking help.
Another thing nobody is talking about is the fact that the airplanes are spewing nano-aluminum. Could that cause dementia?
Chem trails!
I think the more relevant risk with aluminium is the amount that is leeched into food when the food is cooked in aluminium pots and pans.
Watching/listening to right wing carny barkers is a much bigger threat.
I respect your willingness to posit a hypothesis about the link between low blood pressure and dementia. There is some professional risk to offering hypotheses, but without them the field of medicine goes nowhere. Cheers from Vermont!
your hypothesis is solid and long overdue!
Within the low carb community Dementia prevention is discussed quite often.
Great to hear a Doctor tell the truth. Thank you
My mother will be 91 in September and she has had dementia for over a decade now. Her generation came from the doctor knows best school so she took every pill and every shot prescribed and given. I can't help but wonder if this contributed to her condition. Luckily I learned the opposite. Researched every prescription given and have not taken most of them. At almost 62, I'm not on any forever drugs in hopes I don't end up like my mother.
Thank you Dr Suneel, those 3 factors, sadly, impacted my Mum and are a wake-up call for me at 65. I appreciate all of your knowledgeable and practical advice which I would never hear from my GP in NZ, so a huge thanks to you 🙏🏼
My mother is suffering from Dementia and has been put on end of life protocol, and that terrifies me. She was mentally aware for the longest time but has degenerated since she received the Covid vax. Im very upset with myself because I live in California, and she lives in Michigan. She has also developed the inability to fight infection. Unfortunately, this has led us to her end. The last time I visited her, she didn't know who I was, and that was heartbreaking. I pretty much failed.
I am happy my father passed away he was 93 with dementia. Celebrated his life. My mother passed away 83 dementia. Both very fit and active. Good diet lots of vegetables, never had takeaways. No obesity. Did crosswords etc. didn’t have a car. Walked everyday and carried shopping back. They were both on meds for high blood but just above the normal.
You did your best. Stop the blame game,get active - do positive things.
Don't blame yourself, you were lied to by the doctors, trusted them and wanted the best for your mom.
You didn’t fail. I know you think that, but consider that it’s not your fault that your mom aged and not your fault for her medical conditions. My mom died at 99 years old in 2022 and all I could do was help manage her care. She only took 2 meds, thyroid and BP. She was in early stages of a blood cancer AML. She did get the jab in 2021.
You did not fail. Please don’t put that on yourself. My sweet father had dementia the last 4 years of his life. We visited him every single day and STILL he got dementia. Take care and God bless you.
I am an RN in an Emergency Room. The amount of pills that Seniors are being prescribed (prior to ER visit) is just shy of murderous.
However, “every patient” wants a pill prescribed before discharge 🤦♀️ 💔
My sister, a well educated teacher...doesn't feel satisfied if she isnt given a pill or a shot during a doctor visit. As some lady on TV used to say: "Stop the Insanity!"
@@philwaller4379 everyone wants a “quick fix.” It is a very bad situation.
Not every as I been had them cut my toe nail off without drugs!!! Not all but the majority no doubt
Blessings and appreciation from Sydney Australia .
With prolonged use of Antidepressants leads to dementia too. There is research done showing that. It makes total sense.
Doc, you’re the thinking man’s thinking doctor! 😁👍👍👍
Two friends had dementia and I wondered whether their lives almost constantly on low fat diet was a contributory factor. I think loneliness is most certainly a risk factor, although some people can prefer isolation without necessarily being lonely, so difficult to measure.
Other risk factors are sleep deprivation, anxiety stress, lack of movement/exercise.
Our earth is geocentric, flat and stationary. It is the motion of the celestial sun, stars, planets and the moon which is physically observed from the terrestrial surface. The procession of the Equinox is a myth, Polaris is indeed the North Star, now and until the end of mankind.
Yes!
Exactly!
Precession, not procession, there is a difference.
"earth is geocentric" doesn't make sense as a sentence. Do you mean the earth revolves around itself???
If earth is flat and stationary, why are the other planets not flat and stationary?
Does anyone live on the other side of the flat earth? Why not? Is there really an objective up and down in space?
How deep would one have to drill to poke out the other side of the flat earth?
What generates earth's magnetic field if it has no huge metallic core?
If earth really is flat, then it presumably has much less mass than a spherical earth - so why isn't our gravity much weaker?
Is there gravity on both sides of a flat earth or only on one side? And why?
When I see the sun set in the western sky, where does it go to? Do Apollo's horses pull it back to the other side while I sleep?
@@michaels4255 Thank you for taking the time to 'correct' my grammar, and to ask highly intelligent questions. I will provide a brief answer of my opinion, to each question you asked, but in separate comments, if that is okay.
“If earth is flat and stationary, why are the other planets not flat and stationary?”
Regarding celestial objects of great distance, the naked eye can only interpret two dimensional. For instance, the moon can be oblate, prolate, flat, concave or spherical and each will look identical. Therefore, shading variations cannot determine shape. If rolling pool balls are observed as being spherical, does it mean the pool table is spherical?
Great video Dr Dhand, I'm a 73yr old hyper carnivore ,no pills and no visits to the doctors for six years and I feel great!
I'm over 70 and don't have dementia ... now what were we talking about?
LOL.... good one.... at least you still have your sense of humor. 😅😅😅
😂
A sense of humour also important to staying healthy! 👍😂🤣
We were talking about that tenner you owed me 😘
True. Aluminum and Stress also along with other factors.
There was a lot of social isolation since 2020.
I loved Covid time I can’t be the only one 😂😂😂
Yes, and I think it stunted little children’s development.
@@sassypatty2666Nuremberg 2.0 required.
I’ve never Been more lonely than I have the last 12 years living with my partner. I’ve had low bp for years. Never medicated. But I totally agree with all of your 3 reasons.
'Isolation' is - or should be - very, _very_ different from 'living alone'. I know people who live in a family situation but who are lonely and feel isolated.
I live alone and I love it.
I am physically and mentally active, have a busy social life and am involved with U3A where I lead a couple of groups.
I will soon be 80; old sporting injuries are catching up with me and the achilles tendon I ruptured a few years ago will never be the same again - but hey ho, most of my bits still work as nature intended!
I have heard that aluminium could be a problem if using saucepans made from aluminium, it builds up in the brain.
Thank you so much for taking the time to post this video. I’m a 68 years old woman and I try my best to eat properly but I can’t afford a ketogenic diet, I don’t think many pensioners can tbh so I cut out sugars and eat good meat as often as I can. One other risk is medication of various sorts, especially ones who create a ‘downer’ effect such as zopiclone. Please can you do a video on this type of medication and dementia? As a sufferer of sciatica I take gabapentin but even that I’m not really happy to take and I have cut out all other meds previously prescribed including omeprazole and simvastatin. Turns out I don’t need them anyway.
Please think about getting rid of/ tapering off the gabapentin. It does horrible things to your brain! 🙏🏼❤️
Back in the day they called it hardening of the arteries. Keep moving folks and THIS won’t happen 🕊️🌷🍃
My Dad worked on his feet 15 hours every day but had hardening of the arteries. Sadly, my Mom thought she was helping him by cooking with corn oil, margarine, and shortening. We also rarely ate raw vegetables except sliced tomatoes and lettuce in daily sandwiches for lunch. He had a soda, breads, and desserts almost everyday. My husbands mother and two sisters all died of heart problems at 69 due to diabetes. They ate plenty of grain carbs but not many vegetables raw or cooked and sugary desserts. Although exercise is good for circulation, muscle tone, weight, et.; diet does seem to matter. My husband both exercises and eats plenty of salads, no breads, seldom pasta/rice , cookies, cakes, donuts, et. and I cook with olive oil or real unsalted butter and he has avoided diabetes and heart issues so far at 69.
Oh, I also eat fairly healthy, although not as well as my husband, but I do not get enough exercise lately so I could use to lose 10-15 pounds but I am also 69 and although I have asthma (grew up around smokers), I have no known heart or diabetes issues and am not on any prescription meds. 🤷🏼♀️
Thank you Dr Dhand for your ‘common sense’ guidelines which is so lacking these days.
I'm 75 and I keep working the people I hang out with they're in their 70s we're still working and we don't have dementia but the people that retired a long time ago and they have no reason to get up and do something they're starting to lose it
Weight training is the secret to avoiding metabolic syndrome. And any diabetic with insulin resistance should be weight training (building muscle) and supplementing with vitamins but especially being sure to get adequate MINERALS. They are used in many metabolic processes. Zinc, chromium, etc
Lived by myself for 20 yrs …… I love it…. Never lonely can choose company when I want it. Been some ones wife or most of my life and I can now live my life for just me! I travel overseas at least twice a year for weeks at a time. Definitely recommend it
I believe the first one, I’ve noticed confusion since taking a certain BP pill.
I saw my grandmother slowly fade away from vascular dementia. The sad part is, the sufferer dies TWICE! Firstly, what makes them who they are dies. Then the remaining "empty shell" dies. Dementia is a cruel and devastating illness. I only hope a cure can be found.
I'm almost 62, and obviously there's a family history, and due to my appalling living conditions (social housing, bad neighbours, relentless stress), I haven't slept properly for 19 years. I believe this is a huge risk for dementia.
Isolation: as a card carrying introvert I need more not less isolation to re charge. Strategy games keep my mind sharp.
I agree. If I went the rest of my life without coming into contact with another human being I would be a happy camper.
Appreciate you so much! ❤ I wish you were in my area as I am in need of a great doctor such as yourself!
i know right!!! i'm tempted to relocate to wherever he's at! he's a Gem!!!
Although I did not agree with loockdown, I loved it. Quiet, no trafic, no screaming, shouting, everywhere empty.
Thank you. Both my parents had dementia. Both were on statins for cholesterol... but I bet the Insulin Resistance was an issue. Both on high blood pressure meds also.
Doctor, you give doctors a good name. You are a leader. Keep up the good work.
How can we get Dr. Dhand as our US Surgeon General?
You are very highly appreciated! For the last few years much Gratitude 🙏 gratitude 🙏 gratitude 🙏
