Reversing dementia with diet- a 2021 update - Dr Paul Mason

- Alzheimer's disease is a condition which first identified a little over 100 years ago. Since then, it has become an epidemic. The reason for this is that Alzheimer's disease, which causes 70% of all cases of dementia, is a metabolic disease of the brain. And our metabolic health has gotten far worse in recent decades. This is why drug companies who believe Alzheimers' is a genetic condition have failed, despite spending billions of dollars. Don't be misled by the recent approval of an a drug (Aduhelm) by the FDA - 10 of 11 members of the FDA's own scientific advisory panel expressed the opinion that the use of this new (and expensive) drug was not supported by science.
Nor does the promise of genetic therapy offer much hope. How could genetics explain a condition which has gone from being only just described a little over 100 years ago to epidemic proporotions. Rather it is much more likely that lifestyle is to blame. Even the APOE4 gene doesn't necessarily mean one will develop dementia, for genetics is not fate.
Learn how the rigth diet can prevent, help manage and potentially even reverse Alzheimer's disease in this scientific lecture by Dr Paul Mason. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
This one is personal for me. I cared for my father for the last two years of his life, after his fairly advanced Alzheimer's was finally diagnosed. And I saw first hand how changing his diet to eliminate seed oils, grain and sugar, and putting him on a keto based diet helped his functioning, even with more advanced dementia. With the cooperation of his doctor, we were able to get him off all medications as well, and improve the quality of his life.
Thank you for sharing this🧡
God Bless you. That's great to hear. My Grandmother had Alzheimer's and my Mom worries about it. I'm trying to help her maintain a diet that can boost cognitive functions.
Sss..s❤️🎉❤️❤️❤️❤️🎉❤️💞💞
Well done.
That's wonderful news!
I am living proof that his conclusions are correct. I was diagnosed with Mild cognitive Impairment at age 58. I am Apoe4/4. I used to be fat, hypertensive and pre-diabetic. After switching to a low carb diet and a healthy lifestyle, I was able to lose 50 lbs., cure my hypertension, reverse my pre-diabetes and cure my MCI. I recently entered a drug trial for an Alzheimer’s drug but was rejected from the study because I had TOO LITTLE amyloid beta plaque to qualify😁🥩😋
All of the Alz drugs are selling hope and do not work so I don’t think you are missing out! I anticipate that you already are aware of Dr. Bredesen’s Recode protocol-that has more likelihood of helping.
Way to go!
Congratulations! And keep up the good job. Thank you for the testimony.
I’m confused
In thought there is no way to diagnose Alzheimer’s until one dies... and the s as amyloid plaques can be detected after an autopsy is done

Watch the video again because the good doctor covered this matter.
Salute from Bangladesh. I am a neurosurgeon, I advised my patient on HFLC.They are getting better after following the good life style based on real science. Thank you paul for your relentless effort for the humanity. After Covid Pls come to our Bangladesh, we will arrange a conference on HFLC
This doctor is a national treasure. Pls protect him at all costs.
Dr Mason. You are my inspiration. My wife and are mostly on a carnivore diet. Gone from over weight diabetics on many meds to non diabetic blood sugar on no meds. Be so careful of unexpected sources of sugar and “vegetable” oil. We recently bought a corned beef roast from a supermarket. My blood sugar spiked. Checked the label and it had added sugar and veg oil. We now only eat grass fed beef, lamb, butter, cheese and free range eggs. Blood sugar totally under control. And our minds and bodies are working better all the time. We are mid 70’s and both look and feel great.
I love that you did this together.
Chuck steak in a crock pot is a great substitute
I am 80 went keto 4months ago lost 12 kg have more energy blood pressure reduced sleeping better more alert went off all medications and my muscles seem stronger I am a rower and now keep up with rowers 10 years younger Thankyou dr Mason
🥳🥳🥳
This information was largely inaccessible to the public until people with a depth of education and exceptional communication skills began sharing. Thank you Dr. Mason.
Keep unraveling the pack of lies. You are saving lives.
Amen. I always hated the argument that our high rates of autistic children are normal because that level of autism has always been with us we just didn't catch it.
Yeah, the great educators of children and the public health reformers of the 17-20th century just missed the fact every 20 children they saw had a crippling learning/socializing problem. Plus the fact the rates have increased by huge amounts even from the 80's, but especially the 60's.
It is like this with nearly every modern disease - we are literally falling apart - our bones, our blood, our heart, our eyes, our skin, our brain and mind.
Lies. And groupthink.
Three months after going Keto my A1c went from 7.3 to 5.3, thereby reversing a Type 2 diabetes diagnosis. My internal medicine physician was gobsmacked. I'm 72 and I take no Rx meds. I feel better at 71 than I did at 50.
You are not reversing nothing, go eat carbs and see ,with this stupid diet you cannot reverse diabetes,this is sad true
True!
Did you lose weight?
@@kalinkirov5828 Yes he is... absolutely loads have reversed Type 2 Diabetes eating a Keto diet... eating carbs creates the conditions right for diabetes... duh!!! a bit like cancer and sugar...
@@kalinkirov5828 Judging by your grammar it's obvious your not the brightest bulb. Type 2 diabetes is reversed every day. Educate yourself before sounding off about things you know absolutely nothing about.
Our bodies need cholesterol!! I eat, fatty meat, eggs, butter and full fat dairy. Statins lower cholesterol and have been implicated in raising the risk of dementia. Even if high cholesterol caused heart attack I would rather die from a heart attack rather than slowly waste away from dementia/alzheimers.
" Even if high cholesterol caused heart attack" Well, it does not. High insulin and dietary sugar does.
High 'bad' / LDL cholesterol tends to be contributing, this usually originates from too many omega 6 (from 'vegetable'/seed oils..and too little omega 3 (eg fatty fish etc) to nullify them..
Don't worry about eating cholesterol from say eggs etc, since your body makes/needs up to 5g per day anyway..and the amount you eat doesn't even come close to that.
The liver produces 80% of the cholesterol in the body. Food contributes the other 20%.
High triglycerides also contribute to heart disease. What causes high triglycerides? Excess simple carbohydrates and alcohol. You're on the right path.
My friend say: "If it is in a box, it will put you in a box!"
Bhhh, so true ))
Keto has been my dietary choice for five years due to this very issue. Avoiding cognitive decline through good nutrition is something we all can do. Thanks for the research updates. Very helpful.
When will the community nominate Dr. Paul Mason for a Nobel Prize? Honestly, it's the least we can give back you, Sir. You are our key to real data and better health. Thank you.
Wow! What groundbreaking scientific discovery has he made?
Nobel Prize and Dr. Paul Mason ate two opposites.
Icrystalrose. Again, in English this time.
I wish more of the doctors and nurses I worked with would be open to this mode of thinking, I’m very thankful for your knowledge and insight. Thank you sir, keep It up!
I missed the recent conference!! This video is very good though!! Thanks Dr Mason. I'm 72 and my parents died in their early 90's but could well have gone on longer had LCHF been more 'around'. I've been on LCHF now for 5months, lost some 'good' weight with subtle but definite physical improvements. Wow! I love the history angle of all this - the Ancestors' angle plus the corrupt modern industrialisation of knowledge and practices. I'm a former RN and can allow myself to be contemptuous of medical practice, religious monopolistic interference and societal 'norms' led by lobbyists: makes me think that my past work ethic and trials were a bloody waste of time as so much and so many of us were ignorant! Cheers.
You will also notice, when looking at the disclosure of content panel, that "vegetable Oil" on the panel normally points to SOY Oil and other Poly Unsaturated Fats whilst Olive Oil content will say Olive Oil. If I see "Vegetable Oil or Canola Oil, I put the product back on the shelf
Use butter or bacon grease , tallow or lard.
Doctor Mason, Please please stay safe. We need you against bombardment of propaganda and brainwashing about nutrition around the world.
vegan agenda too... its powerful
Hear, hear!
My mother is 77 and literally lives on sugar. I can't tell her, and the family just keeps giving her sugary treats because 'she likes them'. It definitely affects her mental capacity. I naturally don't like sugar, thank heavens, and working at home now means went back to my natural pattern of eating during a 6 hour window only. I am horrified at what is fed to my grandchildren but there is nothing I can do until they are older.
You can't do anything later. It's hard to witness, but you can only model a healthy diet. The rest is out of our control.
Teach the grandkids to cook healthy recipies.
Thank you so much for this video; I cried when I saw it, cos I felt as tho it were a response to my comment. I am going to use it, to try to convince my dad's GP to keep him on a ketogenic diet. The GP listened previously, when I showed him the studies linking anticholinergics with dementia, and deprescribed these terrible drugs, that my dad had been on for over 30 years, for IBS.
Along with a high sugar diet, they definitely contributed to my dad's dementia.
Thank you so much, Dr Mason - I am extremely grateful.
How did your dad do on keto diet?
Great explanation of how Ketones are the human bodies internal cleasing process that regenerates a person's health considerably. Thanks Dr. Mason
Thank you Paul Mason for this superb summary of the real problem. Following LCHF now for 5 years and reading all those book, e.g. from Ben Bikman, I would say: the main problem of our society is most obvious: sugar and too much carbs. We "never" had those in our life...and its a shame that Lobbyism prevents the truth to be printed in the media. So "we" have a lot of work to do ;-) Kind regards from Germany, Robert
It is getting harder and harder not to worry about diseases that 100 years ago were not known, but in recent years it has been causing death and a lot of suffering for the family, Doctor Paul Mason, gratitude
another superb presentation, Dr Paul.
It’s very difficult to convince my unhealthy friends and family members to change their eating habits. Nutritional education needs to be taught in schools from year 1.
I wish I had a euro for every comment like this. We cannot convince others how to eat, nor should we in my opinion. We can only live our own life and truth. Others can follow suit if they choose. It's very freeing to stop worrying about others. It doesn't mean that we don't care.
@@TerriblePerfection 💯%❗ It's just hard going to their early funerals
6es, but whose version of a healthy diet? Our schoolchildren would still be taught to eat low fat grain based diets with little meat.
Fantastic information Dr Mason. Much appreciated.
About time Paul, great to see you again. 👍🏻🇬🇧
Low carb - satisfying, takes weight off, better for heart, better for brain. Better. Bring on the fat!
As to Omega-3s, I dumped the fish oil supplements for tinned sardines.
Bum I’ve just bought some omega 3 cod liver and encouraged family to take some
I heard tinned Sardines have histamines. Also some are mixed with crap and vegetable oil.
@@ratclifferob Eat the ones in spring water.
@@HeatherTudor1 No better. Eat them fresh!
High fat diet increases intestinal permeability, loads of studies on Pubmed.
Brilliant talk as always Paul, thanks 👍
Thank you Dr Mason for another great presentation on the topic.
another brilliant presentation by Dr Paul Mason
When will this man get his Nobel Prize?
Dr Mason always gives a master class in coherent, well supported arguments.
I'm watching your interview with Mariela Glandt. Whenever I start getting confused with all the conflicting advice I listening to, your information always straightens out my brain and re-assures me that I am doing it right. Thank you so much for all your work.
Another great knowledgeable, facts based evidence presentation. Keep them coming Dr Paul! 👏
Thanks Paul, great information clearly presented as usual. My father is scheduled for a consultation with his Doctor this month about the onset of dementia so I'll be using the information presented when needed.
Dr Paul Mason, one of the best & clearest out there ...thank you for another great video ....have solved many of my aging issues with your advice.
Spot on, Paul! Absolutely on point. Too late to help my hubby: but perhaps if others heed your advice, they can help themselves avoid this devastating condition.
👏👏👍best explanation of apoe4 I've heard.
Brilliant!!
Love listening to you. Great video as always thank you
Thank you! For your deep dive into nutrition and this topic. Appreciate your work!
Thank You Dr. Mason! Much appreciated!
As always, excellent presentation.
What a brilliant doctor! Thank you 🙏
Great work as usual,
Thanks
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you for this message of hope.
Love your work Dr Mason
Thank you for this clear and straightforward info.
Great presentation Paul, as always. Thank you for your efforts to educate not only the general public but also your fellow health care providers.
Well said !
Perfectly presented video. Thank you.
Great Presentation.. thanks for sharing your knowledge..
Fantastic report and information!
Brilliant presentation thank you.
Thanks for such an excellent video.
Fantastic Talk and easy to understand Information - thank you so much 🥩👍💖
Excellent information.
So glad to see you Dr. Mason 🤓
Such an easy to understand video. So appreciate your work, Dr. Mason.
As always great info!!
I’m almost 60. Both parents died in their 90s with wet macular degeneration and some degree of dementia. I was diagnosed a type 1 diabetic in 1970, and now I’m eating nearly a carnivore diet and avoiding seed oils - entirely from fear. Still have some obvious visceral fat.
Well done ! Do you eat organ meats too ?
Im carnivore as well, never felt better.
@@vasilmitrev2238 Organ meats are the best & tasty.
I eat only top sirloin , bacon, ground beef, rarely eggs and cheese. Been this was for 37 years. My great grandfather ate this way he lived to 108 and was active till the end. Grandfather died in 70s almost lost my dad in 60s. I plan on continuing my plan
Don't live in fear. What a waste of time! You are still young and on the right track. Enjoy your short life every day!
Thank you Dr. Paul!!
Paul Always-in-the-Literature Mason! Why isn't my doctor like this? My doctor looked puzzled when I asked about my LDL particle size... "We only test for things that show disease risk." He then wrote me a prescription for Atorvastatin. LOL! : /
Great talk! Our "health" system should change name to desease system, drugs system, palliative system, billion dollar big pharma system, etc, etc...
Brought your book, it’s really insightful
What really worries me is when I see people who are supposedly following a keto diet or LCHF, advocating the consumption of a no sugar, no carb, no calorie coffee additive for a treat. These additives are full of either sucralose or fake sugar and preservatives, which are fully processed. When questioned about their use, I was told it was for a treat only. My response was that if you have to buy a 750ml bottle, the treat soon becomes regular. I also stated that the idea behind keto and LCHF was to get away from all processed foods. Some people just don't get it!
Some people need it as a coping mechanism, they're not ready to give up the sweetness and the pragmatic compromise for LCHF/Keto/Carnivore a spokesperson is to encourage moderate consumption of those chemical substitutes as the lesser evil.
@@MediumRareOpinions Maybe so, but for myself as a type 2 diabetic, I cannot afford to go back to 'sweet' things. I have chosen to follow this path and it has given me the results I have been wanting for years, that my doctor's advice hasn't been able to. I don't want to know how my body would react to sweet foods - I know my taste has changed. Since mid December last year when I discovered Paul Mason's TH-cam vids and commenced my keto style diet, I have to date lost over 30kg in fat, my blood pressure & blood sugars are all in the normal ranges. Whilst my doctor agreed to drop my blood pressure meds, I have since stopped them altogether along with the Metformin and Lipitor that he is still prescribing. I am giving him regular updates on my progress as he wasn't a fan when I started, but I feel better than I have for over 20 years. What also worries me is that the number of people you see who are so very overweight and you see what they have in their shopping trolleys, and they are blissfully unaware that they are killing themselves and I can't say anything. A couple of months ago, I tried unsuccessfully to get a friend of mine to change their diet as I was concerned about them. About a month ago, that same person was diagnosed as type 2 and given medication by their doctor and told to lose weight. As it is an early diagnosis, my hope is that they follow the advice of their friends who advocate a keto diet and it works for them, but knowing them as I do, I don't think they will - it is too hard to get away from processed food and take away.
Stevia liguid helped me in the transition, but yeah most alternative sweeteners are either chemical poison or still full of carbs ...
But same goes for 'keto bars' etc, it's still processed garbage in general.
@@peterbougoure5356 Good for you! I would NEVER agree to take a statin or metformin. Just changing diet has been shown to reverse pre-diabetes and other heart disease markers. There may be a miniscule subset of people who need these drugs because nothing else works, but the vast majority just need to ditch the simple carbs and processed foods and follow a keto or at least very low carb diet and they can ditch the meds for good and enjoy many more years of good health. It's a travesty that many doctors and dieticians are still pushing the low fat/low calorie diet in spite of all the evidence that it is a colossal failure.
@@peterbougoure5356 are you a troll ? You repeated this comment a lot I be read it earlier scrolling through the comments.
I am not sure about this theory. My father was highly educated, very active person, thin, high and very social person. He had his hobbies, family. He was careful about his diet and never somked. He would occasionally had a glass of wine or a beer (4, 5 times pr. year). We had our own garden and he was very much into organic food. On the other side he had lots of presonal stress in his life and always had a very sensitive sleep. I guess his sensitivity and continous stress caused Alzheimer already at 68.
Mind blowing stuff
Paul should be my doctor
He is.
Bravo! Well said.
thanks Dr Mason i have really enjoyed your insight into things, it has helped me explain the risks to my parents.
I was surprised about the olive oil especially since it is being touted for its resveratol content and effect on aging.
Thank you Paul.
epic presentation.... ty
Love this ✨
Great video.
Excellent
wow very eye opening video thank you
Thank you Dr Mason for yet another great lecture. Always learn so much from you. I was fascinated by the MMP you described in a Q and A session after a lecture last year(?) with respect to arthritis; and here it is again, the little bugger causing more damage!
This video is what I do - no fructose and no seed oils. So glad he has confirmed what I had found out. Somebody give this guy a Nobel prize and shout his message from roof tops.
keep it simple and just go straight to the point. Anyway,good for people with sleep problem. TQ
I'm pushing 50 in July and I'm not scared of dementia. I'm pushing 50 in July and I'm not scared of dementia. I'm pushing 50 in July and....
No seed oils for us for a few years now. It's a bit harder to completely eliminate processed foods, but if we see any type of seed oil in the ingredients list then we put the food back on the shelf. We also (of course) take into account total carbs.. if I see 50g per 100g.. then I also think of it as 50% carbs... But I aim for 5 or lower.
My father is 86, has hardly ever eaten any veggies except for potatoes and eaten the “standard American diet” all his life, eats a lot of junk food and sweets has a great memory yet my 62 year old husband doesn’t eat much sugar, eats relatively healthfully, a mostly plant based diet with some fish and has recently been diagnosed with early dementia. How to account for that??
Add meat and cut "healthy" whole grains and gobs of high sugar fruit. The 86 year old is eating more fat. Some people cannot tolerate ANY sugar.
Amazing content as ALWAYS - thank you Dr Mason. Would you say it’s unhealthy to give my small children honey and berries daily ? I had them both on carnivore / ketovore but since listening to Dr Salindino I’ve introduced honey and some fruit. Thank you so much for any advice 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Brilliant!
It's the scariest thing to loose mind and control. I wish to see real dementia reverse on keto measured for a year at different patients. Than I'll believe there's hope.
My mom had. I did put her on keto for several months. She got better, but not good. Maybe it was too far.
Try carnivore, it's keto on steroid.
Fasting will help even more but you can only regrow so much brain tissue.
Maybe on keto she wasn't entering ketosis and therefore no much improvement to be seen.
The Bredesen protocol, involving a keto diet, has been shown to reverse advanced Alzheimer's in clinical trials.
Watch out for “Dr” Norman Swan!!!
Lucky your name isn’t Marianne after that BRILLIANT information on statins. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Excellent presentation... More please...Thank-you !!!
You can see how Dr M's physique is changing on his own low-carb diet 🐮. He's looking increasingly lean and well muscled in the later videos. So he's a walking advertisement for the research he offers us. (Sorry Dr M for making personal observations about your appearance!😜 PS -- Don't turn into Shawn Baker!)
the problem is you can eat a high carb diet that is extremely low in polyunsaturated fat, but on a high fat diet, it is very hard to cut out the same amount of polyunsaturated fat. when I was eating a rice, sugar and fruit diet, my daily pufa was less than 1 gram. on a keto diet, it is hard to keep under 10 grams.
So I don't have to buy more bottles of cod liver oil....................
Thank you.
we have been doing Ketovor heavy on meat and fasting. My ? is there any oil that is good? If there is no benefit to fish oil what is good for omega fatty acids? Your teachings are great but some suggestion's on supplements when eating mostly one meal a day. Thanks!
Great presentation. If cooking fish oxidizes their omega 3 then does this apply to tinned sardines and salmon as well because they are cooked in the tins?
The US's AHA depends on bequests from the estates of heart disease victims. They'd be gone if we all ignored all the advertising and ate WELL.
When I learnt about omega-3 fish oil I was pretty devastated having used them for quite a while. Now, in lieu of that, I consume tinned cod liver every now and then. Find that absolutely satiating and hope it's good:) By the way, isn't that odd that scientists should be focusing their whole attention on genetics while totally neglecting the dietary part? Appears it's probably too mundane to deal with... Thanks for throwing in that point Paul!
Cod liver is even worse. I suggest you not taking it.
Hi there Dr Mason. Very informative, regarding unsaturated fats. Walnut oil is mentioned as very susceptible to oxidation. Yet walnut has been touted in other talks etc. as a healthy snack. So should we now a rethink that walnuts are not a healthy snack since usually they would have been lying around in canisters exposed to air for a spell before it gets consumed
Thank you so much for this great info again! Had to see my grandfather wasting away from Alzheimer's disease for 8 years. Changed my diet 1,5 years ago to low carb, low sugar, low fiber, low oxalate and other antinutrients. Now hoping my father will do the same, instead of risking the same end stage ad his father...
@18:30 +/-, you're blocking the view of the graph --- can you post a link to the paper, please?
Great stuff, as ever, Doc!
Seems to be this one, I think - first figure -- www.pnas.org/content/117/11/6170/tab-figures-data

thanks Doc
Doctor, can a person's brain function on ketones alone or does it require glucose as well?
I still use spray on oil so food doesn't stick. Is that small amount enough to cause problems? How often and much sardines needs to be eaten to get enough omega 3s?
