Mediterranean diet, lots of olive oil,blueberries, salmon salad, walnuts, cross word games, A son brought his mother back from dementia, he did alot of research, it took 3 months to heal her
Thank you for the comment 🙏
God gave him godly wisdom but God healed her. He healed her. But... "We are fearfully and wonderfully made."
Thank you!
Praise God! "Every good gift comes from His hand" thank You Lord for your mercy and grace and love and godly wisdom in this young man! +

Very encouraging. Thank you.
You're too kind Doc...the system is in the business of keeping people sick. This is why what you do is so important...thank you !
Hello Mary,how’re you doing today?
Absolutely.... we need healing Not meds....

I found Dr Hyman after an autoimmune diagnosis. The medical community had failed me but listening to and following his recommendations and finding a functional medicine MD was my path to healing. I'm back again to realign my health and destress from life. He knows what he's talking about.
I was cured of ME (Chronic Fatigue) by Alternate Medicine 30 years ago. Fasted til urine is like water. No medication whatever Fasting under med supervision. Put on a plant based diet. To prove my healing. Qualified as Spinning Instr at 63 & for 7 years taught 9 Spinning & 2 Aqua per week til age 71. Resigned to Volunteer in Israel for 2 years. Covid sank my dream.
Qaq
It took over 5 years of going to old school endocrinologist who prescribed postage stamp treatment of synthetic drugs to break free and get to the root cause. Mine was over stressed adrenals and now after 2 weeks of vitamin supplementation and Armor thyroid I’m losing weight breathing better and have more energy. My hope is that functional medicine will replace standard medicine in the near future as people get better educated.
he does, you can tell. He knows his stuff well enough that he can repackage it in any way to address whatever topic and be understood by his audience. I don't know if he's a professor but I'm guessing he's a fine teacher

My mom reversed many dementia symptoms by following Dr. Dale Bredesen’s program (DIY fashion, with me as her coach). ❤🎉so grateful!!! She passed 3/7/23 after a fractured hip 12/19 made her bedridden (daily exercise was a huge part of her recovery and maintenance). But even with that trauma, she knew me and my sisters til the end, and kept her personality. Forever grateful. ❤
PS Baseline Symptoms as of Summer 2021:
Age: 93
A1C: 10.2
MoCHA score: 16 (decades off on the current year, thought our President was Jimmy Carter)
Sundowners episodes: thinking she was in her childhood home in MD when in her apartment in CA; mistaking her daughter for a mysterious stranger who must have grown up across the street to know so much about her; too tired/paranoid to sleep in her downstairs bedroom at night; wetting her couch and recliner and not noticing; leaving her bathroom with pants in hand, oblivious to feces dripping down her legs; confined to a wheelchair when leaving her apartment due to falls.
Symptoms in December 2022:
Age: 94.5
A1C: 5.9
President? Joe Biden
Before her hip fracture, she attended church services and enjoyed shopping with me, no wheelchair. Cared for her own toileting 24/7. Showed improved scores on Brain HQ. Her PT regimen included marching 20x (holding a grab bar inside the window sill), knees raised hip high. She danced with me as we enjoyed Lawrence Welk. She also repeatedly watched Dr. Bredesen interviews on TH-cam; Dr. Hyman’s was a favorite. 😍
The Sundowners was still there but much different: she nightly asked where she was to sleep, but always knew who I was. Best of all, she was herself.
After watching my grandma’s decline from AD (crawling on carpet, eating lint 🤮), there are no words for my gratitude to Dr. Hyman and others who made the ReCODE program so accessible.
If you or a loved one has Dementia, there is hope! You may not be able to reverse everything. But don’t let that keep you from trying. And if you hit a wall and start declining again, review the program and tackle the next thing. Things that made a difference for Mom: strenuous exercise, AM hydration, ketoflex 16/8, dropping A1C thru diet & exercise, big salad at 5-7d/wk, sardines 2x/wk (lemon-curry & smashed, in keto wrap), bedtime fat bomb (THM Skinny Chocolate), spirometer drills 3-4x/day, side sleeping, nasal breathing. See playlists on my channel for links to Dr. Bredesen info & more. And follow Dr. Hyman! Very smart holistic advice. 🤗
Hello Morgan,how’re you doing today?
You are a scammer who is trying to prey on these people.
Hi, thank you very much for sharing your journey!
I am also writing to you because I notice there is a garyyoung who is saying high to all the people who left a comment here. I checked his profile and there is nothing on his page. I think he is a scammer preying on people who had lost loved one.
Please be careful and take care 🥰

I've been keto for 8 years, kept off 105lbs and all my labs are within range. I have 1 cheat day every month and I fast 1 day a week. I feel great. And STILL, my doctor says I need carbs for energy"😣 SO annoying.
Get a new doctor. Yours is a clown at best, harming you at worst
I agree, about the doctor comment, when Covid came along, and going to the doctor very much, let’s stop going completely when they were asking if you were going to get the shot, and I wasn’t I decided to put my trust in my God because he was kept home from the flu for the last 20 years or more, and as far as I know, I wasn’t sick but I didn’t get tested. I spent three days and three nights in bed feeling a little funny getting up and taking my thousand milligrams of vitamin C, that I was taking every day before it started., I was even home at feeling mildly sick for three days kind of feverish slightly nauseous, had no temperature thermometer. But I still haven’t had any shock, even though I’m 74
Isn't that sooo frustrating and just mind boggling?!? Honestly, when my doc kept telling me the same thing, and I kept asking him "then why do I have tons more energy and I never have the crash or lows that I did when I ate carbs?" and he just looks at me like I'm the idiot I got a new pcp!! The fact that he could see the weight loss, see the incredible changes in my labs, see the complete cessation of my symptoms along with the fact that I look so much healthier and vital, yet still didn't even have the sense to stop and consider, even for a moment, that maybe he doesn't know everything was just too much for me to trust him with any other health issues. If they would just drop the ego and act like a doctor should... it's such a shame.
Of course they say that. Fear of losing another patient!
@lauraburgess2734 I hear ya, mind boggling crazy pompous asses!
I am 80 years old but I started to follow your ideas and having great success , thank you for your

Dr. Hyman, would you consider contacting Bruce Willis, through his agent, or family and offering to help him by offering restructuring and diet changes? I was watching the video on dementia from 2022 (Lewy Body?) and it hit me🤜🤪 If a well- known person could be helped, attention would be focused on actual treatment of humans, and literally millions of lives could be changed for the better! Just a thought...Thanks for being a Doctor who wants to HELP people!❤🙏🏻
Your idea is brilliant ❤. I hope he does it.
You have a big heart!
If Bruce is healed by proper diet, the whole world won’t believe in big Pharma and med system anymore. So do you still think the cabal will let it happen? They control the celebrities, btw. That’s one tool in their tool box to control the media.
Please consider helping Bruce Willis
Bruce Willis should contact him! Not the other way around. I’m sure he doesn’t need patients. Celebrities are the worst patients.
Is the medical academia ever going to change? This man is brilliant and all healers need to change and learn from him. God bless you sir. You have a large audience.
Amazing at 85 yrs. I thought I was the shit at 59 lol you really got to get a sense of accomplishment when turning someone's life around. Thank God for Doctors like you
I see a functional doctor and cannot imagine being a patient in an allopathic clinic. I have gone to two referred specialists ( dermatology and endocrinology) and came back to my doctor saying I wasn’t going back, period, and would he consider being my one stop doctor. He agreed.
Last visit I asked him why he went into functional medicine and he looked me straight in the eyes and said, ‘because my patients were not improving’.
My experience also. I'd been going to a functional med doctor but this year wanted to get on board with a "regular" doctor because they did a great job with testing and treating covid. Plus I'm now on Medicare and can save the high private pay of a functional doctor just to get annual tests when, knock on wood, all my routine labs are normal. Anyhoo - the regular doctor at the beginning said "just so you know, I'm NOT a functional medicine doctor and I won't be doing all that testing and supplements and such" as she's waving her hands dismissively, almost as if she was warding off evil spirits. Then she just went down their routine new patient checklist of questions and gave me a 10 minute lecture each, on why I should get colonoscopy and mammogram but wouldn't entertain the idea of getting a CAC scan. I doubt I'll go back unless I have some minor injury or illness that I need a referral for. But I"m phobic also about specialists so I appreciate your testimonial KaCee! Oh and p.s. the Functional Medicine practice only has maybe one patient in the waiting room at a time. I get at least a 30 minute consultation just to discuss my wellness program. The regular doctors have a packed waiting room of old miserable looking people (I'm 68 but feel about 40) - what an unpleasant experience!
God bless that Dr. for recognizing they were not getting better and, doing something positive with that information.
Good one. I think the key really is that our bodies have all the things on board that they need to regulate themselves... but as humans we always think we know better with our pills and surgeries and all... no... nature knows what it's doing. Let's stop intervening
My husband's new Dr just told him to drop Salt intake (we use iodized sea salt & pink salt in ACVinegar) - read up on how vital salt is and they're telling patients to drop salt without asking about their carb/sugar intake & checking insulin resistance etc
@@c4caffeen134 Ugh! So I guess he didn't test him for sodium? We need at least 1500 mg per day. I learned this when I quit eating processed foods, I need to ADD 2 tsp salt per day. And balance that with 4700 mg Potassium! Nutrition is complicated and sadly, countless doctors have just learned a mantra of reduce salt intake to battle high blood pressure. Us educated people here know that salt is not the enemy, SUGAR is !!! I love Dr. Berg's channel because he spells all this out.
I had ulcers years ago before they proved the h-pilori connection. I was prescribed the "white foods diet": potatoes, bread, vanilla ice cream, etc, and wound up losing mygallbladder. No spicy foods - until I discovered chili and started making mine with home-grown cayenne peppers. Over time I discovered that my ulcer pain went away when I ate my chili. It's been decades since my last attack, so the peppers must have killed off the bacterium. 😉
Yes,cayenne pepper heals it!
Also, apparently parasites dont like hot stuff.
@@red---paulvanravenswaay2247 viruses don’t like hot stuff either
@@lilaccilla 😢😂😂😅😅😅😊😮😅😅😊😄
Wow remarkable story!
Wish I had known all of this years ago before I lost my mom to Alzheimer's. Then my dad had dementia from strokes and I lost him a year later. It was a nightmare. Thanks for all the info you give us so we can do better.
Hello sherri,how’re you doing today?
Same here, wish I knew these things earlier
Yep... it's just a heartbreak any other way!
I am startinh tonhetvsome kind of dementia after a traumatic accident. Cant get any medical help from nhs. What can I do
I have constant diahorea bone pain and sore skin itchy skin. . Can yo suggest anything
I am a 62 yr old female on hrt.
@@AngObrien Have you spoken to your primary care physician or a natural health practitioner in your area?
Heres what I did. Vitamin D3 10,000 IU, coconut oil 1000 mg. Ginko bilbo 160 mg., HTC 500 mg. I was wandering from room to room accomplishing nothing. It took over a year, but now I can follow a thought, make plans, carry them out. I also take 6 maintenance medicine plus vitamins, minerals, etc.
Thanks Ginger. What is HTC?
This is great. A lot of people skip supplements. I also take L-Theanine, tyrosine and gaba as well. My memory improved and now back at doing daily workouts including HIIT and resistance. Our brains need that blood flow and oxygen
@ginger what is HTC?
What is HTC? Did you mean THC?
MCT oil : tumeric Vitamin D & B 12,really helped dad
I'm so in agreement with you. Too much sugar seriously affects glucose levels and yeast bacteria thrives in high sugar body, throws a ton of stuff off in your body. I noticed when I have too much sugar/carbs I will crave more but when I do more of a ketogenic diet and it helps to level out my glucose leves and I won't crave the sugar/carbs and my mind feels more clear not lathergic. Thank you
Well said, how are you doing today?
Hope you're good.
It's like cleaning a Hoarders House 😅 and making it into a home again...I am on a keto diet to prevent dementia 🙏🏼 my mom passed away from untreated dementia because I didn't know about TH-cam in 2012 to 2017 when she passed 😢 wish I'd known all this information. So, hopefully, I can help myself... prevention is better than cure 🙏🏼 Thank You for this informative podcast 🙏🏼
Hello janette,how’re you doing today?
I’m here for the same reason. My dad has just been diagnosed with FTD.
Absolutely... Keep researching and following good protocols...
If your bloodwork is good you're on the right track! 🍊🥬🥚
Hope things have improved for you! 🌸
Also, I've noticed when I get those "brain farts/forgetful moments" I, look to my diet and noticed lack of protein for the day. I'm really enjoying what you guys are saying, thanks for your research and input...
Yes same here… iExcellent info!😅😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you for that hint; I've seen that too I thought.
Hello,how’re you doing today?
I work in an assisted living, most of my 13 years is working with people who have dementias. I’m just the person who hangs out with them, daily activities, music and to help them keep for a little longer. We no longer take anyone with Lewy Bodies, doesn’t respond to “conventional medications/treatments.” I had one man with it, the saddest dementia, he was tortured in what was happening to him, his hallucinations were real to him, it pulled his face into a mean look, he wasn’t. He was a lovely man in between episode, ran a New York City hospital, hallucinations had a lot to do with his work. My people break my heart, I love them dearly. They pay a ton of money, the food served is just dead empty processed food with a few exceptions. A ton of medication, tiny people with a pile of pills. It scares the hell out of me, hence my listening to your podcast. I teach a class for new hires, many stories, reasons why, etc, football head injuries, head banger bands causing some to suffer CTE. I’m in MA so the Patriots Aaron Hernandez is part of my discussions.
Oliver Sacks, Alive Inside, is one of my heroes, music is magic. Thank you for what you are doing for dementia treatments
Bless you and your Open 💜❤️
Considering what it costs for the care.... There absolutely should be healthy food for those patients.... Otherwise it's just basically add'n to their struggles and cruel really .... I'm glad someone so care'n is there like you, maybe you can get their attention on the nutrition side....
Truly doesn't cost a lot to improve that, you just need a good nutritionist to help with the meal plans.... And then watch people respond.... It's actually 'Good business' to deliver quality to loved ones... Word gets around your Not just a warehouse.... And it makes your job care'n for them easier too!
So everyone benefits at the levels that matter more to them!
It is very hard to find an endocrinologist that is willing to complete all the testing needed to get all the accurate lab information to help a Hashimoto thyroiditis. They looks at basic labs and subscribe medication and hope you say you feel better. I am on a site with so many young people that are not thriving because of POOR medical treatment for their Thyroid Disease. Shame on those doctors for not doing better.
We have local and general elections coming up. IT'S TIME we speak up about the AMA. Medical doctors are not cutting it. I'm writing letters about this. Please get a a group of people and send letters to your representatives.
Kathy, I also agree about doctors in general. They have limited knowledge and hand out prescriptions but thats it.
The best thryroid diagnostic doctor on the planet is Dr Gutler in Santa Monica, if he is still practicing. Started and Mayo, which left us severely disappointed, then found Gutler. For a thyroid operation, the ONLY place to go is Clayman Thyroid, who occupies the entire 10th floor of Tampa General Hospital in Florida. And we researched the world first. Cant recommend eClayman or Gutler high enough.
Sadly true! As a 17 year old in 1974 I was put on Synthroid that never did a thing for mine last time I went to the Dr his only fix was you guest it! Synthroid!
Sometimes going to Natural doctors can help immensely; they have specific lab tests performed by sending off samples of your saliva and blood.
Both my mother and myself were lucky enough to see Dr. Roundtree (Functional doctor in Boulder). I have no doubt that he saved my mother. She was given 4 to 5 years to live and because of Dr. Roundtree, she lived another 22 years. Functional medicine is the best of western and eastern medicine.
Hello Aura how are you doing over there?
Interesting. I should probably go since it got my grandmother and I'm alot like her.
What a tragedy. Her lifelong housekeeper got it first..I kept thinking it was the aluminum in the canned vegetables they ate daily. Dark hair dye too. Really sad.
Hello aura,how’re you doing today?
What was he treating each of you for, and what protocols did you each follow to get such healthy results? 💮
In 1985 I was eating what I Thgt was “healthy” , exercising and sleeping well. I was exhausted. I went to a Naturopathic doctor and she took blood for cytotoxic test. I went off the “healthy stuff” like tomatoes, lettuce, dairy etc for 3 months. During that time my energy came back. She then said I could gradually work them back in one at a time to be sure my system could handle these foods. Brilliant fix.
So are you Keto now with just some of those included?
Things that may be healthy can not always be beneficial to some... Depends on your chemistry, so bloodwork to Know where your at, is the Start'n Not guess'n point required for all of this! 🧪🩺
What an eye opening video! I am flaberghasted by this information. Yet on the otherhand after watching what happened over the last 2 years I'm not entirely surprised at how the pharmaceutical agencies have taken over healthcare. I definitely need to get to a functional medicine practitioner. You are a wonderful person Dr Hyman and so honest. What a battle to be fighing at this time. I will tell all my friends about your work in hopes they heed the warnings. Sadly many in my family blindly take all the latest perscription medicines and seem to be getting sicker. I have decided to try alternative routes like the keto diet. Kudos to all the brave men and women who fight the good fight and try to heal people.
I've known about diet and inflammation causing demenfia and illness for years..... Ur just learning this?? Man spread the word u shouldn't be shocked that health is being ruined by food companies with junk ingredients
Dr, Hyman, of all the versions of Keto Diet, which is the right one??where can I find the correct one?
Can Adrenal Fatigue or chronic inflamation be fixed? Is there a protocol to reverse fatty liver? Do prescription drugs compromise the liver, things like Vytorin, diuretics, antidepressant, and anxiety pills. Is it possible to sustitute them for natural medicines instead of chemicals pills that ruin another part of the body?
@@gloriadearellano7442You will first need to get off the prescription drugs, one at a time, starting with the SSRI’s and anxiety medication. I would personally stop the anti-anxiety medication first, because if it’s not a benzodiazepine then it’s only working through the placebo affect, and if it is a benzodiazepine, it is disrupting too many natural body and brain processes to count. Benzos can require a very, very slow tapering process, especially if you are not able to stay at home while you do this. The easiest method would be to step your dosage down as minimal an amount as possible, even if you have to use volumetric measuring, and then staying on that lower dosage for at least 21 days until you step down again. When you are finally off, wait another 21 days minimum to let your body adjust and to avoid having to start on the medication again. If you do have to start back on it, that is fine, just go to the lowest comfortable dosage and try again. This process can also be used with the SSRI but the tapering may can go faster. Both the anti-anxiety and SSRI can have a lengthy detox process even after you have gotten completely off. Know that even though it may feel like it, this detox process will not kill you. For the most troublesome parts I had to utilize complex meditation techniques and very small doses of psilocybin mushrooms, but I was suffering from complex childhood trauma. After I was able to get off the psychotropic meds, I was able to start on the physical body meds. I am now on zero medications from up to 9 at one point, and am only showing mild autoimmune symptoms, which decline in intensity the longer I go without eating gluten. I did have to completely change my mess of a diet before starting this process, while making small changes along the way, to compensate for all the systemic disruptions within my body. Before I started this process I was on the cusp of a permanent Hashimoto’s diagnosis along with a possible fibromyalgia diagnosis. Those symptoms are now gone. Good luck, message me if you require more information.
@@gloriadearellano7442It may help for you to start on a version of a keto diet where you avoid processed foods and maybe gluten. My diet changes consisted of zero processed foods, zero gluten, no excess sugars, and a larger variety of lean meats and fruits & vegetables.
I did most of my work around end of life with lots having dementia,
I cared for them and I’ve also done therapy work with people with dementia.
If I was having a awkward moment where anger and frustration was involved I’d keep calm and tell alexia to put music on from their era and it instantly changes the energy .
I always wondered if there was a way to reverse dementia, so hearing this is brilliant I definitely will be taking is and sharing this with families .
Hope is everything.
Dr.Hyman you and others like you are a blessing to us all. You don’t just think outside of the box, you took the box apart and made something beautiful out of it.
As for saturated fats I noticed that the people I know (knew) that lived on saturated fats lived into their late eighties and into their nineties. That got me questioning all the hype around saturated fats. Ate mostly saturated fat but not every day. My wife’s grandmother cooked with and in lard three times a day and her husband died at 89,
Her mother who lived with her was 95. Of course they worked every day and had a very low stress level.
I think your work and way of thinking is so far advanced and independent, I really wish more (all) doctors would step away from big Pharma and investigate the root causes the way you and your colleagues have.
Love you man!
They won't because doctors are getting millions of dollars on commission from Big Pharma. That's why they own tons of real estate.
You are the IDEAL and a REAL doctor! Thank you for working so hard to fix patients the right way!!
I am not a doctor but vitamin D slowly but surely helped me with a lot of the issues discussed here.
Obviously you want to help people and I do too. After all this time since you did this video, maybe no one will see this ,but I will put it here in hopes someone will see it. In addition to your excellent advice, I suggest the 4 day rotation diet.
Also, I had ulsers, very severe. Dr's said I needed surgery. I had been taking antacid, by the case, and milk. The surgery was scheduled and I was resigned. Then, I found out about cayenne
pepper. I took cayenne pepper and lemon juice and it curred the agonizing condition.
Hello Linda how are you doing over there?
Thank you for sharing. Please would you also share the exact cayenne pepper and lemon juice recipe you used.
@ Linda Fox
.. how are you doing today ?..✨
Wow! Thank you for sharing! So many think that spices upset your stomach, and although they eat very blandly they ever improve.
What is the dose to take
My cardiologist Dr. Reynolds at University Hospital-Madison, WI 1974 had an open mindset. I probably owe my life to him.
I was going on 4 years keto, the third year cheating some but getting right back on it. Well, here I am, I don't blame you for giving permission to eat other things once in a while, but I tried different foods and they didn't do bad like it used to. Ezekeil bread, then it went to deli meats for the bread, then rice wasn't so bad. All of a sudden I couldn't do a whole shopping trip. My legs and feet are cramping up. I'm buying healthy granola bars that in reality are candy bars. The carbs and sugar tricked me, just like they say happens with alcoholics.
So I made the date and started at the beginning again. Beef and veggies is what my body responds to very well. I will let my husband see my results. He's the one who brings the garbage into the house.
Ohh that's what my husband does too..
So frustrating...
I had a constipation problem my entire life I found out about pre-and probiotics once I took care of that the rest got better you gotta take care of the gut first he’s right…
Hello Patricia how are you doing over there?
Which ones worked for you?
Our pets need them too after antibiotics
And believe you me,I’m never never constipated on this Vegan diet
God love the both of you! When I was in my 20, I used The Method of Eating Hi (Quality) Fats and stop ALL sugars: I am now in my late 60's and I am trying to go back to this way of eating similarly to a Keto Diet (never exact, but as close as I can come! NO SUGARS! SUGARS, I BELIEVE, are the Main Culprit of my memory loss!!! I struggle every day with words and certain phrases, but I believe it is because The GUT is not being fed well with the appropriate balances of WHOLSeOME FOODS AND LIQUIDS! I am getting back by listening to my gut now, and I believe it is helping me quite a bit! I don't blurt out names and other phrases that I cannot control any longer, and make it a point to use either The Ketogenic Diet, which is difficult, as well as taking better care of my GUT! God Bless you, Dr Hyman !!!!!!!
Re: h-pylori; once diagnosed with h-pylori by my functional Neurologist I also drank 4oz of aloe vera (Aloe Vera of America stabilized by cold process) twice a day two days before next visit to functional neurologist . The h-pylori was gone and to date has not returned.
The aforementioned Aloe Vera is an EXCELLENT food and yet is never included as part of a good diet. It's antifungal, antibacterial and includes all amino acids.
Was it a specific type or brand, or any aloe vera juice is good?
When I was a kid in the early 1960's, we were delighted when Kentucky Fried Chicken and MacDonalds came to town. It tasted good and the food was better made than now. Little did we know it was junk food, and more and more fast food came along. It tasted worse and worse, and people got fatter and fatter. I lost 65 pounds on keto. I dont cheat on my diet because I feel so much better when I stick to it. Sugar instantly makes me feel sick. That means my body is happy on keto.
Fantastic. Spot on. My father had a veterinarian company with a colleague, and they always discussed money or truth. I saw and listened to it in my childhood. If the customers are silly, let them pay. Let's not tell them about health. That's bad for business.
I disagree Strongly.... Your dad had an obligation to educate his patients owners for the Better outcome of the critters that defended on both! No One knows' enough about anything to be treated as 'Silly' when what they need is educating.... If they don't listen then I'd Still do My Best for the patient!
I had this in my profession where patients would ask & ignore my best advice for their needs... If it was Serious I had to refuse to help them as they wanted tell'n em No I'm Not gonna give you an inferior or non useful product... That gen Snaps em to attention ask'n Why again - sigh.... And I'd restate the issues... Then 99.9% did what was best... Or came back After Be'n Stupid elsewhere, realizing I had tried to warn & help them! Word gets around who's professional and honest! Treat e everyone as you'd hope to be! 🩺
Just played video 5/9😱Damn!...nearly passed on watching this video. What a huge disservice I would have done myself (Seriously said and 100% meant). 🏆👍That was an EXCELLENT informative and helpful hour well spent for me this morning. Damn, that was some fantastic information I heard -"heard",...and to think I was about to mark it as save on my phone. And maybe never get back to it to watch later on, but saved it in case I might. I was truly primed and ready for all you spoke about leastwise all that resonated that "I" could hear. WOW! Will be re-playing this video again this evening! Taking notes this time! Thank you for making and posting this video. I am so grateful to have watched it. 🏆👍
Ive just started making my own Pemmican, dried meat, ground up, mixed with melted fat, added Blue berries for taste, sets into bars, after seeing utubes of people who have lived on this for 100% OF THE TIME FOR 12 YRS, CURING everything.
The reason research isn’t done and you know this already, is because it does not make a lot of money for the medical system and Pharmas. Thanks for your continued good work 🥰
Why oh why are there not more doctors like you!! You are new to me! I think I’m going to Love your stuff. Thank you!
There are a few! See Dr Berg. Excellent!
So glad you didn’t throw this lady away and she could afford the rest. Bravo💕
Dr Hyman resonates so well with me. I was unaware of the term "Functional Medicine" before, However, I am quite the supplement nerd and always trying to improve my health. About 12 yrs ago, I had no energy. My blood was tested and there was no iron, low sex hormones and very low thyroid hormones. The lab tested my blood 3 times and called the Dr in alarm. I was severely anemic and my thyroid had been failing. I also had scary high blood pressure and was heading into menopause. I was put on meds. Fast forward - I am wondering if I will ever be able to have a naturally functioning Thyroid again. I am already doing many of the things he mentions he does/takes. This video is inspiring me to look into other tests and medications - thank you Doc!
Intermittent fasting may help also. Listen to Dr Mindy Pelz..she has some amazing info too on healing thyroid.
Start researching your issues. Try Dr Berg’s channel. Just type dr Berg, then the issue you want to look up. You Tube may suggest similar topics from other doctors. Watch a few different ones to see what aligns and makes sense to you. Really hate to hear of someone with serious thyroid issues as a family friend died of non cancerous thyroid due to extremely poor medical system here
@x. It's possible you are low in copper. I just came from a YT video by Dr. Berg talking about it. You can do a search on it. I hope you will find your healing.
When I had h-pylori I took mastic gum, manuka honey and black seed oil for 3 months (including the Doctors 2 week prescriptions).
I just turned 50 and have frontal lobe early onset dementia. (I'm unjabbed and no covid, never even has the flu for the past 25 years, last time I had the flu it was because of a flu shot I had to get while in the army) No history on either side of my family of dementia. My mom passed from multiformagliobastoma, that's not hereditary. I lived in England as a military brat during chernobyl and the radioactive cloud hovered over us and they slaughtering 2mil sheep because of the radioactivity. I have lost so many friends to obscure cancers through the years that were there the same time as we were. I am now wondering if that was a contributing factor to my diagnosis.
Bruce Willis (American famous actor) also has the same diagnosis. Doubt he was anywhere near Chernobyl or the like places.
@@ABCABC-hd8iq understood but the fact my mother had a rare form of brain cancer and I've lost many friends to rare cancers that lived in the same place, it's a legitimate question. Tons of my friends that went to school with me during that time had thyroid issues etc. Just because HIS wasn't cause by it doesn't mean I could not be impacted due to environment factors.
I really love what Mark is doing. I tried to do this for my mom but the system took over after my wife and I put in 4 yrs of care. My 3 other baby boomer siblings took over after us and the system destroyed her as my other siblings are big med big pharma professionals. They considered my wife and I uneducated and new nothing. My mom was a healthy mostly Pharma free women when we cared for her. 1 yr after we moved on she was in a wheel chair.
Living Herbally and holistically we should live for 200 years and more.
I loved this video and many of your other videos. I feel pretty heathy at my age of 77 years. But when I was younger in high high school and college and before l had stomach problems. The cause was food allergies and lactose intolerance. Avoiding milk, ice cream and cheese solved the lactose problem and the food allergy was corn and it’s derivatives a big problem. Doctors would prescribe Mmylanta 2 for my stomach problems. And a swig before solved that problem, but if I stopped taking Mylanta. At 37years old I got married and my stress level went up, butI was able to stop taking the Mylanta that puzzled me bu I never had to take Mylanta again.
I love Dr Mark’s caring , commitment and brilliance- always learn new things from him! Wealth of sharing!! So grateful for Dr Mark!
I sooo respect you for presenting this information.
I take care of my Mom. One soda and her memory decreases for about 3 days. She's more confused and angry. After a walk she's a little sharper. Sharper in the morning and after a nap. She had edema in both legs when I took over her diet. Edema gone within a month. She was prediabetic, not anymore and her Vitamin D went from 19 to 51. First thing when we wake, is a walk in Nature. Sunset another Walk. I feel like I stabilized her memory but not seeing any big improvements. I turned down all meds. She does take B1 and Nutritional Yeast.
25:00 - Yes, when I was a registered dietitian in the 1970's, we used the ketogenic diet on the pediatric ward for uncontrolled seizures. It went out of use when anti-seizure medications became available. Then it was "rediscovered" decades later. You are 100% accurate on the composition of the ketogenic diet. Not everyone on youtube provides accurate nutrition information. Thank you so much.
I am still heartbroken over Robin Williams. 😞
Another great episode. Thanx doc. I truly appreciate you. You're so humble, funny yet so full of wisdom & knowledgeable in your field. You're helping those of us who take health seriously. Pls dont stop 🙏🏼💥
I need your help
Hello April how are you doing over there?
Great info, thank you for your time.
Thank you. This has been a catalyst for me to learn more and make changes.
Great talk with Dhru Purohit. I'm dealing with a mystery illness, so the information is quite timely and valuable.
Whoa amazing detailed progress about dementia and the like- thank you for staying energized in your work Dr. Hyman!!!
Bless you Dr. Hyman
Thank you for this information. I appreciate you so much!!
Everytime I watch Dr Hyman there’s a part of me for a second that says “ Damn! I never knew John Stewart knew so much about nutrition “.
😂
He TOTALLY does look like John Stewart. But an intelligent John Stewart 😂
@@tamarasergio1203 he also looks very old for such a health nut!
@@annrhodes3544fat makes you look younger. He doesn't have any, but he's definitely healthier. Look at his pictures from 20 years ago.
Just bought the books for my brother a neurologist. He also worked at the Cleveland Clinic. This is fabulous information. Thank you.
Any update? Id love to know if the Hyman books and your lifestyle changes influenced your brother the neurologist as he now cares for patients? CC is very demanding in "THEIR Way." Did he leave?
@@barrez9307 Yes he's in Green Bay Wisconsin now. I have no idea if he read those books. We have a terrible relationship. Thanks for asking though.
Wow amazing . Thank you Dr.Hyman for your time . I follow you and I learn so much from you …thanks a lot
Oh My, I wish there was a doctor in Southwest Michigan that would do a house call to the AFC home I work at, we have a houseful of women that maybe wouldn't need to be living away from their families anymore, if they had doctors that did this great work.
I will definitely be talking to their families, and hopefully they will take this seriously, and get them to see someone like these doctors.
Thank God for these great doctors, and for the ppl they have helped.
Thank you for sharing your life-giving research and the amazing outcomes you have observed. Massively inspiring!
Having moved from keto to almost total carnivore, there no longer are the ‘mini gastric reflux’s’, where talking has to stop for that quick swallow to keep stomach contents distal to the cardiac sphincter. During this podcast the good doctor displayed body language - of perhaps a gastric issue or excessive salvia……which does not entice me to reintroduce veggies- (which some ‘violent vegans’ preach)…. I’m concerned- being new to carnivore- but having so many veggies I can’t tolerate - I feel lost without a firm footing in one ‘diet religion’ or other. Recently I realized that as far back as I can remember most foods,did not sit well or hurt….like raw carrots, tomatoes, now it seems the oxalates(chocolate,coffee), and oats are implicated for frequent itchy rashes. Thank you for your attention!
Doc you are exceptional .
I cut out 95% of added sugar and processed food products. I exercise on a daily basis. I lost weight and I am no longer on any of my various medications. My goal was to get healthy but not necessary loose weight. I eat all kinds and a variety of food minus added sugar and heavily processed food products. I’ve haven’t felt this healthy in so many years. I’m feel better in my 50s than in my 30s and 40s. The body is a functional ecosystem, you get out what you put into it. Thank you Dr. Mark Hayman.
I love your videos and information shared! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing that story. I knew that this could happen if the persons gut and everything thing else you did got her healthy, her body was very sick. I have been studying some diseases and I figured that organic food and getting the patients off the medication, basically starting over as you did would work. And thank you for saying you where brainwashed in medical school and how you just didn’t think it would do much but you went forward anyway and she turned out better than you expected. I can imagine how that must have made you feel, (wonderful). I have been following you on and off for years , so thank you Dr. We need more of you.
Hello Lisa,how’re you doing today?
It’s all connected. Absolutely !!!
Hello Linda how are you doing over there?
Dr. Hyman - i really appreciate your videos. Thanks from germany
Great information thank you
Three bouts of Covid beat my body up so bad. I'm hoping I can get back to health by following your recommendations. Thanks for always bringing us great information
Same here. Three bouts and the last time caused a lot of hair loss.
Your body wasnt ready in the first place. Need to have 25 hydroxy blood level at 140ng per mL for optimal dosing. am taking Vitamin D3 30,000 IU a day for me with 300 mcg K2 and Magnesium 400 mg to 600 mg helped me have it only mild. I added Quercetin, NAc and colloidal silver in lemon water and lots of hydration when I got hit with covid in November. I also had my Iveremectin ready and took 30 mg daily for a week. Am glad I had it mild. body malaise was the worse feeling. I helped out a lady with covid last month without any precautions on my part except hand washing and never got hit again. I was expecting a sniffle but zero. Keep supporting the innate immunity and it will deal with any variants . No vaccine-induced wiping out of my innate immunity for me.
Three bouts of covid? How horrible I'm sorry you went through that. I hope you completely recover
@@annetteredner7258 it's just horrible. I'm still dealing with long covid. I have a hard time sleeping because of chest pain. I can be completely worn out but stay up all night. I'm getting my booster shot soon. Hopefully it will help
@@annetteredner7258 thanks very much for your well wishes
My brain is sharper since been on Quercetin a couple months. Helping Interstitial Cystitis a lot!
It is a miracle! Thank you 🙏I wish I can do this to others. Cure them even in their 80’s.

how does one go about finding a functional medicine practitioner AND evaluating whether that person has 'the chops' for the job, so to speak?
Thank you for an informative video.
this is my favorite doctor ever and i havent even met him.
Hi Dr Mark! I like ur talk! Thank You for ur research and sharing!!
Thank you, Mark. Very interesting 😊
Thank you and God Bless you for your GOOD WORK. I lost my Grandma and my mother to Alzheimers. I am hopeful that my future will be one of health because I am implementing your information.
Hello Wendy how are you doing over there?
Excellent information, thank you so much. Love you guys!
Hello Marisol how are you doing over there?
@@stefandieter4044 Hi, I wish I could say good. I went to the hospital on Monday with severe abdominal pain. So I figured it’s my gallstones, they want to remove my gallbladder. Unfortunately that day I was in so much pain they gave me morphine twice and gave me Pepcid, and I had a CT scan with contrast. It gets worse, I was sent home, the next day I was so out of sorts.On Thursday my pain was still there, I was told by a GI I went to see to go back to a different hospital. The admitted me, gave me morphine again, and prontonics. That took my pain right away. But the pain is still there, not as excruciating but there.They said I need to remove my gallbladder to. What’s interesting my primary doctor told me two months ago I don’t, that the gallstones are not big. My primary doctor told me once don’t either let anyone tell u that you don’t need need it, because you do. Please help me! I don’t want to remove my gallbladder but, why is the pain still there? I started eating pineapple all day, and water with lemon. What else can I do? Any suggestions please? When your in pain your desperate and let them do what they have to.Thank you!😥🙏
@@marisolsoto6437 keep praying to God, and do what you know is right okay?
@@marisolsoto6437 I like your comments, I would like to know you more better if you don't mind, can we chat somewhere else?
Thank you for this video.
Thank you Dr. Mark.
Thank you so much !
Hello Cristina how are you doing over there?
I’m hypothyroid and when I was on keto felt great, my Dr did a blood test and told me I didn’t need the drug therapy anymore but what had I been doing as my cholesterol had gone up a lot. I’m not keto and I’m tired a lot now! So back on the keto I think.
Watch Dr. Ken Berry to understand information about your cholesterol.
Dr Ekberg has great information on that as well.
Dr Hyman has a diet book on a low high plant low meat low carb eating plan you can look at. It's possible to eat a low carb diet with veggies and minimal meat to keep your cholesterol down.
Same here, keto and higher cholesterol
Several years ago I lasted less than 2 weeks on thyroid medication for the under active thyroid due to the awful side effects. I did not want to continue on with medication to have to see if this or that dose was going to work. Fortunately, I able to contact my retired Master Herbalist (also retired pharmacist), as well as another one where I live. They both told me thyroid problems are the result of adrenal stress and you must nourish the adrenals. I went on a "Adrenal Support" which is a combination of herbs: rhodiola, holy basil, schisandra. Twice per day I also take kelp and alfalfa powder (1/8 level tsp.). Before bed, I include 1/8 level tsp. of ashwaganda powder. After using these, my blood tests came out normal. I even received a personal letter from the oncologist congratulating me on whatever I'm doing. This doctor was very aware that I had already began the herbal route when I had my blood tests again. Plus, to be on the safe side, I usually avoid all cruciferous vegetables, and if I do have them, I steam them first.
I’ve got heart problems,so I left meat and dairy,and my life has changed. I’m healthier on Vegan. Please be careful,as Americans are dying from heart attacks it seems every 3 minutes. You get protein don’t worry,from nuts seeds,vegetables. Stay healthy people and you’ll loose weight and live longer Bless you and know what you’re eating. We are what we eat✌️✌️
Amazing information, thank you ! 🙏🏻
Dr. Hyman is a true Genius. Thank you!
American has a professional Sick Care System.
If we wish to truly "thrive" we must invest in a personal home Health care system.
I'd love to tell this doctor what I know. He has a wonderful open mind. Awesome.
I'm commenting after watching the beginning of this video. My friend was diagnosed with Parkinsons and Lewy body dementia at the age of 53. After 5 years it has advanced to the point where he is now in assisted living. Currently he is experiencing hallucinations, and is aware of them. He lives 3 states away so I don't know anything about his diet. I would like to see the assisted care places changes the diets of their residents for their health. There needs to be more regulation in this area.
Yes, there should be research.
This is a wonderful story.
I also get that it is hard to research everything at once.
Fascinating question and answer session. Now here is My question. Watching you speak, you seem to have air coming up, some kind of indigestion problem...swallowing air? My brother does the same thing....thank you, Dr.
Gerd - stop eating plants and it will go away.
Very interesting thank you
Hello Janet how are you doing over there?
mark , I love you. you are the best.. keep it up
Fabulous...
Another helpful video Dr. Hyman. My father suffers from dementia and my sister is already showing early signs. I’m forwarding this video to her with the hope she’ll begin an “ounce of prevention” approach. 🙏🏼
@reggiedunlop could you specify what were some of these early symptoms? Are those similar by any chance to anxiety symptoms?
Hi Reggie: tell your sister to get evaluated for metabolic syndrome if she is following the standard American diet. See Dr. Lustigs talk about how all processed food has added sugar which triggers inflammation and inflammation triggers diabetes, heart diseaseAND dementia. Good luck

@@lindajones4849 Thank you so much for your response. I’ll forward this information to her as well as look into it myself. Unfortunately, my father passed away shortly after my original post (Oct. 22) 😢 He lived a long life, 85 yrs. old, but the last 5 years of his life was more just existing than living. Such a horrible disease. Thanks again for responding and good health to you 🙏🏻♥️
@@ektaaasar Symptoms definitely included anxiety. Mostly though it’s the increasing short term memory loss. She’ll literally repeat herself or ask the same questions 4-5 times during a conversation without even realizing it. She’s seen several specialists and followed the Dr. Perlmutter & Dr. Bredesen protocols with no improvement. Tests have come back indicating problems with her hippocampus. Sadly, my father passed away shortly after my original post (Oct. 22) so now I’m focusing on helping her the best I can. Thanks for your response. Good health to you 🙏🏻
I work with alzhmers and I am going forward this podcast to my boss. Just think if all the facilities start nutrition based cures rather the suger and big pharma meds. I wonder what would happen?
Thank you.I appreciate you.I know most of it ,but I love to listen to you,because you're putting it in such a funny way. I alway learn something new too..
One of the best videos open minded searching
Some members of the Lewis and Clark expedition also ate up to ten pounds of meat each per day when they were in area with large populations of Bison. This and other information about what they ate is in great detail in the Journals of Lewis and Clark.
Please please post the list of clinics and doctors for the Dementia..
Thank you in advance...
Thank you 😊 💓
