The Great Alzheimer’s Scam and The Proven Cures They’ve Buried for Billions

Decades of neglect in understanding the actual causes of dementia have transformed it into one of the most costly diseases in existence.

• Alzheimer’s disease is commonly thought to result from abnormal plaque buildup in the brain that gradually destroys brain tissue. As a result, almost all Alzheimer’s research has been directed toward eliminating amyloid, even after the basis for much of this work was shown to stem from fraudulent research.

•As such, despite decades of research and billions of dollars spent, this model has completely failed to produce useful results. The costly “groundbreaking” Alzheimer’s drugs only slightly slow dementia progression—at the expense of causing brain bleeding and swelling in over a quarter of those treated.

•In contrast, numerous affordable treatments have been developed for Alzheimer’s disease that target the root causes of the disorder, producing significant benefits at a fraction of the cost and without any toxicity.

•One neurologist, for example, proposed that amyloid serves a protective function in the brain and treats Alzheimer’s by identifying the underlying process causing dementia (which can often be diagnosed through symptoms). Remarkably, despite the method being proven in clinical research, awareness of it or the fact there are completely different types of “Alzheimer’s disease” which require different treatments remains almost nonexistent.

•Likewise, a strong case can be made that impaired cerebral circulation, along with impaired venous and lymphatic drainage, plays a pivotal role in Alzheimer’s disease.

•This article will review the common causes of cognitive impairment and dementia (e.g., cells becoming trapped in a shocked state where they no longer function) along with the forgotten treatments for neurodegenerative disorders—some of which, like DMSO, have extensive evidence supporting their use.

Dr. Dale Bredesen detailed in The End of Alzheimer’s, a few pivotal conclusions:

  • Amyloid protein is a protective mechanism the brain uses to protect itself from other stressors that endanger brain tissue.
  • Rather than there being one type of Alzheimer’s, there are actually three with different symptoms, and it is essential to recognize which type someone has before initiating treatment.
    • Type 1: Inflammatory – often metabolic or infectious
      • Type 1.5 Glycotoxic (hybrid of types 1&2) insulin resistance and chronically elevated blood sugar
    • Type 2: Atrophic – deficiences in nutrients, hormones, and other factors
    • Type 3: Toxic – exposure to mold, chronic infections such as Lyme disease, Herpesvirus, cytomegalovirus, fungal infections, etc. heavy metals, and household chemicals
    • Type 4: Vascular – hypertension, atherosclerosis, or anything causing chronic restriction of cerebral blood flow
    • Type 5: Traumatic – brain injury
  • The brain is designed to be able to adapt to the needs of life, so it is always creating or pruning neural connections and brain cells. Alzheimer’s, in turn, results from the loss of signals that sustain brain cells, and the dismantling of neural connections outweighing the formation of new ones, gradually compounding over the decades.

As such, his formula was fairly straightforward: identify the type of Alzheimer’s someone has, eliminate its causes, and gradually wait for the physiological momentum to shift from neurodegeneration to neurodevelopment.  (See link for article)
