Re: Will trying to follow all these recommendations drive me insane, when the point is to avoid going “insane”?

And that was it. He maligned the cucumber and I broke. Because it's all so hard. And yet, at this very moment, I'm sitting here typing while my phone wants me to exercise off a glucose spike. I've never been so unmotivated to do anything. Something as basic as eating a meal has become a lonely, liv...

Re: Free speech

I just finished reading Dr. Kory's book, The War on Ivermectin. I have been following FLCCC since the beginning of the pandemic. I was expecting to have to slog through this book. He is pretty sarcastic, really mad, fast-paced, and he names names. Although I already had a sense of what was going on,...

Re: Scared all over again

Sorry. Deglycyrrhizinated Licorice. The way I understood it back then was that it was coating my stomach, but that might have been just what I told myself. I do remember reading that it was commonly used in other countries for this purpose. Also, I remembered that the other powder was L-Glutamine Po...

Re: Scared all over again

No need to apologize at all. This is scary stuff. You reminded me of something. I used to have bad heartburn. Then I took DGL about 20 minutes before each meal. I did that for at least a year. I also had the endoscopy, and the report was good, and the doc told me to keep doing what I was doing. But ...

Re: Scared all over again

Hi, Let's start at the beginning. Take a deep breath and then relax, if you can. You have one very good thing going for you: your age. You have time to implement protocols that will reduce your risk. Please also be realistic. At 38, I was dealing with work and two young children. There simply was no...

I completely understand and I feel the same. I don't know what the answer is. But how can we ignore the wishes of the person who now exists, even if that person used to feel differently?

Re: Dutch Woman With Dementia Euthanized Against Her Will. The Doctor Was Just Cleared Of Wrongdoing.

Yes, I woulmind living through mild dementia, but the moment I can't recognise family or require full time care, I'd like to check out. Sadly, by then many health care systems don't allow euthanasia of incoherent people, regardless of advanced directives. Hoping that progress will be made so that p...

Re: Food Restrictions Questions

Melissa from Apollo recommended one who is licensed in many states (based out of CO) who charges -- sit down -- $14,000 to be a new patient! omg. I just about had a heart attack when I read that. I guess the bigger shock is that the doc has enough business that he can charge that. I talked to Dr. A...

Re: Food Restrictions Questions

In The End of Alzheimer's Program , we wrote a chapter entitled "Put Out the Fire" with the rationale for giving up each of these food groups. Thanks. I will reread that section today. As I've posted endlessly, maintaining weight is a concern. It seems that my body does very different thi...

Re: Food Restrictions Questions

You ask a really great question about whether or not we need to give up inflammatory foods forever. Dr. Bredesen would encourage you to do your best, especially if you're increasing dietary fat as the combo could set the stage for vascular disease. This got my attention. My dad's vascular disease i...
