Once again, thank you for your writings. This one hits close to home. I’ve seen numerous cases of dementia getting much worse in the elderly after the mRNA shot. It’s so sad…families refuse to see the causation. In one case close to me, the 90yo man, who was brilliant and still at it one year ago, has gone downhill so fast, it’s shocking. My experiences with BP meds for a few months 20+yrs ago, and a short stint (no pun intended lol) on statins after a cardiac scare in early 2020 after what we think was very early case of covid, have opened my eyes to the issues with pharmaceuticals. The book “The Great Cholesterol Myth” played a big part in that eye opening. Getting off sugar and refined carbs, exercise and taking the supplements recommended has transformed me. Lost weight and normal BP now. That said, I’m pretty discouraged with our current medical establishment… I wish you were my Doctor.

I'm with you!! All of this has opened my eyes very wide. My bf's mother went from being a little batty to completely insane after the jabs. No redeeming twinkle in her eyes at all - just angry and accusatory and insane. Probably misfolding of prions, I suspect, after crossing the blood/brain barrier. Again, just guessing. They won't autopsy any of these because it will crash down upon their heads. My parents are in their 80's and still pretty with it. They take probiotics daily and I think that has something to do with it - that and continuity. When things are wrong with their guts, they seem a little different - I don't blame them; when things are wrong with my gut, I'm a little different :) We no longer trust the medical establishment. If the doctor is affiliated with a hospital for anything other than to help their patients, we don't use them. We certainly no longer use the rural health clinics where they are dictated to by the government to the nth degree!!

I am not a doctor. I am convinced the jabs are a health disaster. But in addition to the jabs and the initial health ambush, I think many of us who have lived through the various measures put in place as pseudo-prevention are at greater (or at least equal) because of the psychiatric instability.

My unjabbed husband is loosing "it" a little (61 y.o.) I think because of the work situation. I cannot believe he is the only one. The things that I think contribute are: mask on/off theatre when one does not believe they work (constant lying, bearing false witness against oneself); going into office buildings and finding only one or two other people (sometimes none) working when there should be 20-30 on the floor; being compelled by policy to test for sickness when one is healthy.

These three things alone, for two years, I think could drive a person with a certain temperament truly crazy. It's sad to see once professional and competent people driven to madness when you and they know at gut-depth they are not crazy.

The testing with the PCR tests is also dangerous - the preservative that they use for some of the sticks can be toxic. That may be a part, also. When that is combined with the lack of oxygen generated with mask wearing, that can't be good. If they drop oxygen intake, they are certainly affecting brain function.

That said, until people get it into their mind that they can be well and not go with the demands that don't belong on them, there is internal pressure that is tremendous. Even people being able to take off the face diapers is a challenge sometimes. I have an old friend who came to my parents home just today with one on - and said that she would take it off to eat. I explained that she was under psychological hostility from the ones in charge and that it was irrational to think that the virus would "take a break" for her to eat - and that if I farted and she could smell it that they were doing any good. After a couple of hours with the diaper on, she finally took it off - and hugged me goodbye. We shall see how long that lasts.

The nasal swabs that were shoved up the nose were INOCULATING THE BRAIN with whatever is the bioweapon.

The face diapers seem to be ferociously pushed and naysayers censored on social platforms still to this day. That tells me that masks are CRUCIAL to creating and maintaining the mass psychosis.

Worldwide PTSD. These last years have been brutal and jaw dropping and we all know it’s just the beginning. Scales are falling (off eyes) fast and it’s horrifyingly ungrounding-I stay freaked out most of the time-it’s a living nightmare. Hopefully more ppl will turn to God.

Mads, I hope you are exaggerating when you say you "stay freaked out most of the time". That is not good for you. Spending time in prayer is an excellent response but it is intended to bring you into His divine will and to gently coax you into right-ordered action (which can be tiny, subtle for most of us, momentary...) and be a channel of His peace, not worldly peace. If you need practical ways of achieving that peace, please ask.

I agree, but what it did was totally ground me to God's assurances. Understand that our bodies are temporarily here and that God provides what we need. It isn't always necessarily what we want, but definitely what we need. Ask God for peace...take deep breaths and understand this is all fleeting.

I had the statins pushed on me 20+ yrs ago, short stint with them, then ditched them due to constipation and no real reasons for using since heart health was good.

Interesting on the gut health tangent here: For the last 5 yrs I have had occasional problems with diarrhea / constipation(mostly D) and had treated it as just a nuisance issue, next day I was fine. When it got worse I went to a GI doc and took drugs that made it worse(constipation) and put me in the ER / hospital overnight. Eventually, I woke up: Probiotics. Now taking Kefir and holding my breath. . . In the meantime I had started up on Align and Activia yogurt. Hoping the Kefir may be a more final solution. . . besides taking the FLCCC vax injured protocol.

This was found last year for both of my parents, both in their 80's. Since getting their guts in better shape, they seem to have less problems in general. Mom began with 2 and they got her going so fast that she dropped it to 1 a day. I occasionally take them and they seem to really help.

I used the Align product and it DID help . . . actually, simply eating Activia yogurt helped also. Whenever I had a problem with D, I HAD taken one or both of these and it appeared to help but never lasted, possibly because I only took it for a few days to "right" the ship. Kefir is available in grocery store, expensive but tastes pretty good, so my wife started making her own and I 'm hoping this solution will be more long term:

Surprisingly few doctors are aware of white coat hypertension. Additionally, the risk calculator they use for a heart attack (that is used to justify taking a statin and includes your blood pressure in the calculation) was made out of thin air and completely failed when it was compared to the results of a large patient population at Kaiser. It still is used though and most doctors don't know this.

Fear of what? Death? Or evil? Those are two utterly different things. There's nothing to fear in death. The process of dying might indeed be frightful for those who have a fear of death, and / or of what death might entail, by which I mean what comes after the death of the physical body.

I've been very close to death more than once, and I can assure you there's absolutely nothing to fear in either the process of dying nor in death itself. My heart has stopped; I've felt my consciousness / spirit leave my body, and several other variations on this theme have happened to me during my life. I'm 66 years old, and I've had all sorts of cardiac and vascular events which have given me the opportunity to visit these largely unknown realms of existence, in which one nearly dies, but not quite, alas.

Yes, there is plenty of fraud. But at the base of this is how difficult it is to get rid of an old idea of what causes certain diseases. Most doctors still claim that heart disease is caused by high cholesterol. And they don't want to give up the idea that Alzheimer's is caused by amyloid plaques. In modern society, the root cause of this is money. Too many people are making too much money selling expensive cures which are essentially snake oil. But as Thomas Kuhn explains in the Structure of Scientific Evolutions, no matter what it can take a long time for new ideas, new paradigms to replace the old ones. Belief systems are hard to change even when they don't make sense and there are better explanations.

Thank you so much for writing about this. My dear friend in her mid-fifties is another victim of post-vax Alzheimer’s. About a month or two after her second shot everything suddenly went off the rails. The speed with which it is destroying her is horrifying. Another friend is also having severe neurological (possibly Parkinson’s) symptoms after vaccination. And I know four older (70+) who are also experiencing alarmingly rapid decline after being vaccinated. Each shot makes it worse, as does the virus. My father in law is now showing signs after three shots and then acquiring Covid. My one dear friend already passed away last summer. I have never seen anything like the psychosis he experienced, and I am a clinical social worker. This is such all such a nightmare. I really do not understand how more people don’t see what is happening.

I haven’t even read your article yet, but just your statement that lots of what our elderly folks experience nowadays is a consequence of what has been done to them/us makes me roil. Not that you say it, but that my gut tells me it is true.

For many years I have been angry whenever I hear people (family, drs, patients themselves) dismiss ails and new limitations as simply the consequences of aging. Hogwash.

Now, of course not every 80 year old is as spry or lumber as every 2 year old.

However, this dismissing of difficult symptoms like fatigue or memory loss or pains and such as “just age” really makes me mad. Because inevitably this is the excuse for not addressing the problem or doing anything to make it better.

My husband (not old) was experiencing profound fatigue due to a prescribed med. his family Dr asked about it (thankfully) but then said, yeah, we can give that to older folks but the young folks like you get too tired on that one. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ As if it doesn’t matter if the older folks get tired or not. 😡

 The too big to fail observation that the author made is incredibly perceptive and I believe explains much of the ills of our society. Propping up the biggest banks, not taking on the big tech monopolies, and yes allowing the paradigms of big Pharma and big medicine to prevail when they have clearly failed are among the examples.

I was a patient of Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez the brilliant cancer researcher and doctor. I was cured of incurable advanced metastatic cancer through his program of diet, enzymes and detox as were hundreds if not thousands of others. And despite his brilliance, his track record, his adherence to the scientific method, the many books he wrote he was smeared and slandered over and over again by the medical establishment to the detriment of the millions of people who may have benefited from his protocol. 

I got to know him quite well over the 20 years I was as patient and it was clear after his work was brutally and dishonestly slandered he personally never recovered which probably contributed to his premature passing a few years ago.

A candidate who runs on a platform that promotes the fearless takedown of the numerous too big to fail institutions in this country would I believe be able to garner significant support from the left, right and center.

What I have found tragically over the years is that of the many people I knew who had cancer or knew someone close to them with cancer almost none of them would believe me enough to even consider seeing Dr. Gonzalez. They were afraid of doing something against the advice of trusted family or their doctors. And doctors just like today in most cases were afraid to open their minds to treatment that was inconsistent with the medical pharmaceutical models that guided their practice and ideology.

And many if not most of course then passed away.

Will you be attending the CHD conference in Knoxville on October 23rd?

My mother who had never taken a flu shot ( nor the fake covid vax), takes no medications, is healthy, walks every day, still drives a car, plays golf and is 89 years old has a motto " I don't doctor". I think that is the key.

It is very noticeable when you meet people like this as they are so different from the rest of our aging population.

Awesome article. Thank you for writing it. You break things down to a level of understanding (even something I can understand!)

I noticed that you use the terms "Alzheimer's" and "dementia" interchangeably.

As someone who spent 4 contentious years with a father who (somewhat overnight) developed dementia after what I believe was from flu vaccines, I always thought that Alzheimer's could only be diagnosed postmortem. Although my dad's death certificate lists one of the causes of death as Alzheimer's, there was no postmortem autopsy.

My father, who spent his career in Sales, was always in voracious denial about the decline of his mental faculties. The fact that his physical state was Grade A/excellent, made his denial ever the more difficult.

One trip to the NJ Veteran's Hospital (dad was a WW2 veteran), comes to mind.

We had scheduled a visit for evaluation in year 2 of his mental decline. When entering the physician's office, dad talked amicably with the doctor and joked (like any salesman would). When the doctor asked dad "Joe, what is today's date?", dad responded "Oh I don't worry about those things." The doctor persisted "OK but can you tell me what is today's date?" Dad continued "As I said, I don't worry about those things." So the doctor said "OK, but for MY benefit, can you tell me, what is today's date?"

And dad replied "Oh, if I knew YOU needed to know the date, I would have brought in the newspaper."

Dad could recite his Social Security number and his Army discharge date, but could not remember any detail from a few minutes prior. Dementia is a HARD disease/condition to watch devour a loved one; a slow, debilitating, horror show. I knew the moment dad died because I felt his spirit flow thru my body as he called my name. It was the most powerful experience of my life.

Thank you for this article. I always look forward to your insight, experience, and excellent references.

One of the challenging things with older men is that they often have great difficulty admitting they are loosing cognitive function and employ many excuses to get around it. Also the terms are different, so I tried to be selective in the context where I used each.

I am crying reading your post. Also a child of an alzheimers parent (mine was part of a study and confirmed with brain autopsy - my story in a separate post).

I also had an "experience" when my parent died - it was very beautiful. Thank you for posting - it gave me the gift of beautiful remembrance. My parents transition anniversary is almost a month away...it's been 13 years now...in some ways it seems like yesterday, in others, lifetimes ago.

Fasting! I’m recently (again) learning of the myriad benefits of fasting, not the least of which is the power of autophagy for cancer prevention/treatment. If fasting triggers your system to remove damaged/problematic cells, wouldn’t it stand to reason it would also remove amyloid plaques from the brain??? What if the simple, FREE practice of regular fasting is the cure?

Western medicine hates fasting because it takes away a lot of business. Fasting is incredibly effective when done correctly.

Thank for bringing this up. I am almost 80 and thanks to flccc.net, and in particular Dr. Paul Marik (mentioned in this substack) and Dr. Been, I began Intermittent Fasting about 3 weeks ago and this is one of the first times I have stuck with a diet. I no longer crave for food. I have had a good diet for years thanks to my wife, but eaten too much and was driven by the clock to eat.

Dr Marik and Dr Been discuss how Dr Marik cured his type-2 diabetes. Diet. Exercise, And spermidine and resveratrol. I had never heard about spermidine. They also talked about these drugs in sessions on autophagy.

I don't know if they have talked about Alzheimer's disease related to autophagy.

this is the weekly flccc.net update where Dr Marik talks about diabetes.

You can find other places that Dr Been and Dr Marik discuss autophagy

I would like to know if A Midwestern Doctor think this is a reasonable path to deal with Alzheimer's' disease.

I am a big fan of fasting when it is done correctly. I have done month long water fasts before, but most people can't go that far.

Wait for part 2!

Wow! A month! Over the last few years I would fast for 3 days in order to stop the anaphylaxis and other implant allergy symptoms. At one stage fasting for 3 days was the only way I could get myself well enough to leave the house

I think so many things like cancer, dementia, heart disease, etc. are caused by the medical and nutrition industries. People always ask, “why isn’t there a cure for cancer? “ The answer is because the people we are putting our health’s trust into are the ones who created the problem.

Stop the meds and vaccines and I believe it would eradicate most of these' diseases' with time! It's the same people who want us dead!

Great article! I’m very much looking forward to part 2.

I’ve also seen the rapid-onset dementia. I’m trying to help a woman get appropriate services for her husband who took a quick dive, and I’m finding the system is not set up for this. Best they have been able to do so far is basically to keep him heavily sedated at home. It’s really upsetting.

I appreciated your discussion about how common chronic disease is often the manifestation of a maladaptive-but-normal physiologic process.

I work a lot with PD, and in my framework, that’s a maladaptive-but-normal process. It’s a flight-or-fight Qi pattern (which we all need) that never returns to normal. The consequences of getting stuck there are obviously devastating, and isn’t it interesting how Parkinson’s looks like flight, fight or freeze.

If I can catch someone early, “miracles” are possible, but the average time that someone shows up at my office with PD is 5 years in and taking 2-3 drugs which further complicates things. The goal changes significantly at that point. Stop the momentum and stabilize if possible.

Each patient is different, and I hate how “standard of care” has changed medicine. Grateful for docs like you who still employ their own brains to treat patients.

Thank you for using your time and talent to write here!

Could you explain in a bit more detail what a flight-or-fight Qi pattern is?

Expand full comment

Sure! So the flow of Qi through the 12 main meridians which students learn in acupuncture school is where we should all be the vast majority of the time.

During a flight-or-fight response, Foot Yang Ming (Stomach channel) runs in reverse. Keeping in mind that Qi is the commander of Blood, this leads to changes throughout the entire meridian system that support the sympathetic vs parasympathetic nervous system.

A notable feature… Instead of the counterflow Yang Ming Qi reversing all the way to Stomach 1 and thus right into the eye, it takes a connecting path to Foot Shao Yang (GB) which has a zig zag pathway around the ear. Because of that unique coiling feature, GB is capable of accepting the excess Qi from Stomach. That works short term, but over time weakens the Du channel which runs straight through the brain in the opposite direction. I think of it like inductance even though it’s not a perfect analogy.

With many cases of PD (I’m acknowledging other causes), the individual never returned to the normal flow of Qi after a stressful or traumatic event. Often there’s a blockage or two somewhere along the Yang Ming pathways (so Large Intestine in the arm as well as Stomach in the leg) that need to be resolved, and usually I find one in the foot on the same side that the tremor first showed up.

This flight-or-fight Qi pattern also has what I’m going to call a dissociation effect. People don’t feel like they’re in their own bodies. I do a lot of meditation with these clients aimed towards reconnecting brain-body and heart-mind. When we start, most can’t visualize light within their own body. They’re viewing themselves from the outside. Open Focus technique has been pretty helpful for this.

There’s SO much more to say, but hopefully that gave you what you wanted for now. You can read more at www.pdrecovery.org. Dr. Hadlock is one of my heroes who for whom I can’t show enough respect. Even though I’ve deviated from her treatment protocols a bit, she understands and explains PD even better than what was recorded in the Classics. 🙏

Thank you very much! I've observed that pattern before but I never linked it to any of those conditions.

I am not a huge fan of TED talks but this is one about Alzheimer's and coconut oil is the only one that I've bookmarked. The more than one thousand comments sound promising.

Whether it's about Alzheimer's, diabetes, or just being healthier. I think trying something to help issues that's safe and healthy is worth a try.

I love coconut oil! I put it in my coffee and smoothies and on my skin and hair. My dog knows when I open the jar and runs into the kitchen to get his spoonful.

What a great idea! Coconut oil for the doggo. Ours has dry skin and this would be great. She likes avocado but I've been told that's not great, so I give much less now. thanks!

I guarantee she’ll love it. I had two other dogs and a cat when I started using it and they all went nuts over it.

Trader Joe’s organic triple filtered coconut oil. I used to buy LouAna at Walmart. I like these brands because they do not have much coconut flavor and I use it for cooking. Great because it can stand high heat.

I would read labels and stay away from any big food brands because they are GMO factories these days.

The Trader Joe’s near me stopped carrying coconut oil. First the filtered disappeared from the shelf. Then they placed the unfiltered on the bottom shelf, and the last time I went there, they had none.

My supermarket carries it now, so I buy it there, Greenwise which is a Publix brand. I’ve also bought it at Costco, Trader Joe’s, and Whole Foods. Buy unrefined if you like coconut smell/taste. Refined has little to no smell/taste of coconut. I prefer unrefined.
