A presentation by Steve Blake, Sc.D.. Alzheimer’s disease is the 6th leading cause of death in the United States. Care for its victims costs more than the expense of heart disease and cancer combined. This class and slide show is based on the latest scientific research from leading journals worldwide. Find out which two nutrients are crucial for lowering the buildup of amyloid plaques. You will learn how to lower your risk by increasing your intake of antioxidant fruits, vegetables, and seeds. Lowering saturated fats in the diet can result in better blood flow to the brain. See studies that show which supplements and medical plants have been shown to be effective in reducing the risk and progression of this common dementia. Dr. Blake has just returned from presenting this information about Alzheimer’s disease to teaching hospitals on the East Coast. Steve Blake has a doctorate in holistic health and a doctorate in naturopathic medicine. His area of interest is nutritional biochemistry. He offers classes at the University of Hawaii VITEC program. Dr. Blake is the author of the 2008 McGraw Hill college textbook Vitamins and Minerals Demystified. He has just completed writing Understanding Dietary Fats and Oils: A Scientific Guide to their Health Effects. He is also the author of Healing Medicine. He has a huge database on medicinal plant use around the world. Dr. Blake programmed the Diet Doctor 2011, software for graphing dietary nutrients. He is often heard on radio and …

This is the final part of the Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer’s Disease presentation. This covers cognitive testing (professional and at-home), contact information for Steve Fowkes and CERI, and supplemental slides on possible zinc toxicity and root-canal teeth.

This is part seven of the Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer’s Disease presentation. This is where the Alzheimer’s cascade goes mainstream, where it becomes recognized as Alzheimer’s disease by physicians and scientists. Topics: microtubules (the neural transportation system), neurofibrillary tangles (tau protein), beta amyloid plaques, and the proposed mechanism for apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genetic risks.

This is part five of the Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer’s Disease presentation. The fuel discussion advances to ketones, ketosis (fat-burning metabolism), and practical issues about getting into ketosis.

This is part four of the Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer’s Disease presentation. This part covers cardiovascular considerations and begins the fuel discussion with glucose and insulin resistance.

This is part three of the Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer’s Disease presentation. This part covers the Alzheimer’s Map (schematic), mitochondria, and creatine kinase (the first domino in the Alzheimer’s disease cascade).

This is the second part of the Prevention and Reversal of Alzheimer’s Disease presentation. This part contains the verbal summary of the Alzheimer’s cascade, energy systems of the brain, and a side-by-side comparison of aerobic and anaerobic energy systems.

Dr Robert Peers, an Australian family doctor, has a new theory on the cause and prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease. His evidence points at refined vegetable oils (soy, sunflower. canola etc), which are low in vitamin E and oxidise the brain. He urges people to use only olive oil or cold-pressed oils to avoid Alzheimer’s disease.
