Re: The new P-tau 217 test is almost here

This may be a stupid question but why would I want to have this test. I’m a 4/4 so I would think most likely not have good results. When I found out I was a 4/4 I was very stressed for a while but then came to terms with it and realized it was good to know so I could do the right things using a lot...

where are those heart emojies when you need them? <3 THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was brought up in a "follow the ONLY correct plan" type of way. It was very different back then and in some way - I miss it. I just feel there is NO wiggle room here. Buckle down and get to work. I am already working...

Have issues with denial - apoe 3/4 - 2018 Long read

Hello again. I've been away - I came back - went away - came back. Up/down. Until I recently decided this must stop and I need to address my "situation" as best as I can. I am confused. Overwhelmed. And, well, scared out of my wits :) I need some real old fashioned, knowledgeable assistanc...

Re: Unfortunate side effect from melatonin.

Could a reduced amount be taken for a while?? I began with and continue to stay with 300 mcg. Taken mostly each evening, sometimes I am so exhausted - I feel I will be fine. I AM doing more and more 810nm NIR light on temples/forehead. And truth be told I am so relaxed by end of session. I also use ...

Re: Higher phosphatidylcholine protects against dementia

My Recode Report from AHNP recommends 500 mg of Citicoline 2x day to equal 1 g/day. My calc from the Masterjohn says I need 7 yolks which is 952 mg per day. So I am good right? Maybe not.
