Hi, I’ve been browsing the forum for several weeks now and am finally getting around to introducing myself. My father had dementia, and now I’m watching my two oldest siblings - 16 and 18 years my senior - grapple with cognitive impairment. I am 59. Five months ago I tested myself and it was no sur...

Hi lovely people. I am on this journey of trying to biohack myself and I likely need to find a knowledgeable doctor that will assist me. I did my bloods 3 months ago, after reading the Bredeson book, and I am also doing ReCODE training. I'm 55, no cognitive decline. 3 months ago my HbA1C was 37 New...

Hi all. Is anybody here struggling with food addiction via a vis RECODE? I understand why a dopamine response to eating was built into living creatures - just like a dopamine/prolactin response to sex, without it this experiment would have been short lived when all of the subjects either starved to...

Hi everyone! I’m a 64 year old female who is 4/4. I found out about a year ago through 23andme. My mom and her 3 sisters had Alzheimer’s and I have had one male 1st cousin and 1 female 1st cousin who have it. My mom started with MCI in her late 50s and progressed rapidly to total impairment. She li...

Thanks, Lindsey! As far as oral health, I go to the dentist 2x a year and have a clean bill of health. In the mean time I use Organo toothpaste which is toxin free and is supplemented with reishi mushrooms. I also use dentalcidin mouth wash 2x a day and floss. Stress levels are great - I am a firef...

Hello - my name is David and I recently discovered I am a carrier of the 4/4 gene. I am 38 years old. I have dove into books and completely changed my eating and workout habits. Here’s hoping for the best. Great stuff! Whilst diet and exercise are absolute cornerstones of the protocol, do also take...

Thank you . Fingers crossed ! I really have cut added sugars but have to admit I love fruit . I eat frozen blueberries almost daily. My hga1c has always been high normal , even when young . I think I have always been a little insulin resistant. As a kid I could never eat something with sugar unless...
