Today I want to cover the ten warning signs of dementia, as well as some additional information about Alzheimer’s disease. Top early signs of dementia: 1. Changes in language and communication 2. Difficulty navigating 3. Sensory problems 4. Constipation 5. Personality changes 6. Mood changes 7. Memory loss 8. Difficulty with problem-solving 9. A loss of awareness 10. Repeating things often It turns out that the theory that amyloid plaquing in the brain causes Alzheimer’s may not be as solid as we once thought. But, other promising theories are emerging. There is an alternative theory that Alzheimer’s is a lysosome storage problem. The lysosome is a part of the cell that helps clean up damaged proteins and recycles them into new building blocks. The theory is that this part of the cell is broken. The process of the lysosome cleaning up damaged protein and recycling it is called autophagy. Alzheimer’s is multifaceted. There are a lot of different things that can lead to this problem. If your parent or grandparent has Alzheimer’s, you could potentially have a weakness within your genetics. This doesn’t mean that you will get Alzheimer’s, but that this gene could turn on, leaving you at risk. Thankfully, there are a lot of things you can do to help keep this gene from turning on. Natural factors that help keep Alzheimer’s in check: 1. Change your fuel to ketones 2. Increase autophagy 3. Consume omega-3 fatty acids 4. Reduce heavy metals in your body 5. Methylation (consume B12 and folate) 6. Talk to your doctor about stopping certain medications 7. Get plenty of certain vitamins and try Lion’s mane (vitamins A, D, B1, C, E, and K1) Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 57, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

I lost my mom to vascular dementia. There are no words to express the heartbreak of seeing a loved one afflicted by dementia or Alzheimer's 😓

I'm a bit older and a year ago I got diagnosed with dementia and they told my kids that I would never come out of it, after ending up in the hospital they found out I had a bladder infection that went septic. Apparently older women can get severe bladder infections without having any symptoms whatsoever. I actually have a genetic predisposition to improperly formed ureter valves so the urine can back up into the kidneys and infect them. All I'm saying is if somebody tells you that you have Dementia or that your mother has dementia, make sure you have them check for a bladder infection and make sure that they don't just pigeonhole her and put her into a rest home. Since my bladder infection and kidney infection was cured I am back to 100%, absolutely no signs of dementia whatsoever.

Dr Berg, thank you for speaking on such a difficult subject. I worked as a nurse in a nursing home and had many clients suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's. I fully understand the sadness and devastation of family members who have to place a parent in a nursing home. When my mom's vascular dementia progressed to the point where we could no longer take care of her, we had to make the difficult decision of placing her. At first, she kept asking when she could go back home. Just thinking of this is absolutely heartbreaking. We visited her twice a day for 2 years and it was a blessing to both her and us. At one point, she developed severe pain, elimination and dysphagia problems, and it was decided to start a morphine protocol. She slipped into a coma for 9 long days before before she passed. To everyone who has a loved one afflicted by dementia or Alzheimer's, I wish you strength and courage ❤

This list is so accurate. I lost my mom to breast cancer but she also fought a long 10 year battle with Alzheimer's. I'm pretty short 4' 10" so I guess I can look like a child. The saddest words I heard her say to me were "Where's your mom?" 💔💔 Soul crushing.

I was an oncology nurse for 30 years.. I was also a home health nurse for a bit before that, and I believe that Alzheimer's is the worst disease ever! It's like the person died 10 years previously and their body is still working around😔

I lost my father exactly 10 years ago today from Alzheimer’s after fighting cancer for 20 years. His diagnosis came 6 months before he passed. He was surrounded by family when the day came. We kept him at home. His mind was comparable to a 3 year old during his last days. He was pleasantly confused but he knew who we were. He became unresponsive and bed ridden on the day he passed. We were blessed we were able to keep him in the comfort of his home.
