If you or someone you know suffers from Alzheimers, I highly recommend this book."Robb Wolf, New York Times bestselling author "An important and informative text . . . an excellent book."Dr. David Perlmutter, New York Times bestselling author A revolutionary multi-pronged nutrition and lifestyle intervention to combat Alzheimers disease at its roots from Certified Nutrition Specialist Amy Berger Amy Bergers research shows that Alzheimers results from a fuel shortage in the brain: As neurons become unable to harness energy from glucose, they atrophy and die, leading to classic symptoms like memory loss and behavioral changes. This is a revolutionary approachone that has been discussed in the scientific literature for years but has only recently been given credence in clinical settings, thanks to extremely promising studies wherein Alzheimers patients have experienced complete reversals of the condition. Medical and scientific journals are full of research showing alternate ways to fuel the starving brain, but no one has been bringing this essential information to the people who need it mostuntil now. In a culture obsessed with miracle medications, the pharmaceutical route for tackling Alzheimers has been a massive failure. Pills and potions dont address underlying causes, and regarding Alzheimers, they typically fail to improve even the symptoms. As a metabolic problem, the only effective way to treat Alzheimers may be a multifaceted approach that fundamentally reprograms energy generation in the brain. The good news is, the secret is as simple as switching to a low-carb, high-fat diet. The Alzheimers Antidote shows us that cognitive decline is not inevitable, but if it does occur, we dont have to sit idly by and wait helplessly while it progresses and worsens. Amy Berger empowers loved ones and caregivers of Alzheimers sufferers, and offers hope and light against this otherwise unnavigable labyrinth of darkness.
