Alzheimer's Prevention Protocol (Bredesen ReCODE)

Paradigm shift: Alzheimer's is not one disease but end result of 36+ factors (infections, inflammation, toxins, vascular, metabolic, trophic factor loss). Bredesen's precision medicine approach identifies individual contributors and addresses each. Case series of 100+ patients showing reversal of MCI and early AD (first time in history). Later-stage AD harder to reverse but progression can slow. Key insights: Amyloid is protective response to insults (infections, toxins, inflammation), not primary cause. Insulin resistance central (brain glucose hypometabolism, "Type 3 diabetes"). ApoE4 carriers (25% of population) at higher risk, need more aggressive prevention. Ketones provide alternative brain fuel (ketogenic diet or MCT oil). Sleep apnea massively increases risk (hypoxia, fragmented sleep prevents amyloid clearance). Oral microbiome connection (P. gingivalis found in AD brains). Homocysteine >10 doubles risk. Comprehensive approach is complex but addresses root causes. Prevention is key - protocol most effective before significant damage. Many of same factors prevent vascular dementia. ApoHealth and trained Bredesen practitioners can guide protocol. This is future of Alzheimer's treatment - precision medicine, not one drug.
