Most notably, Alzheimer\u2019s causes memory loss and loss of other cognitive abilities. Alzheimer\u2019s causes are currently unknown, but experts know it involves a steady shrinking of the brain. However, there have been significant breakthroughs concerning Alzheimer\u2019s prevention. Diet, gut health, and exercise all play a big part. Even your career can be key in Alzheimer\u2019s prevention. Marijuana, controversial as it is, could protect the brain, while other drugs, such as Benadryl, should be avoided. And, overall, doctors have found that patients benefit best with a personalized Alzheimer\u2019s treatment plan.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-113\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-132\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-133\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>In particular, some patients might benefit from a natural treatment plan. Above all, an Alzheimer\u2019s natural treatment plan includes a proper diet that will promote healing.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>An Alzheimer\u2019s natural treatment plan includes the following foods:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h3>1. Organic, Unprocessed Food<\/h3>\n<p>Make sure you incorporate plenty of organic, \u201creal\u201d foods into your diet. This means fruit and vegetables. If it has an ingredient list, it\u2019s best to not eat it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5881\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/vegetables-on-white-750x500.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/vegetables-on-white-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/vegetables-on-white-750x500-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/vegetables-on-white-750x500-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. Colorful Fruits &amp; Vegetables<\/h3>\n<p>Focus on foods high in vitamins A, C, and E. There may be a connection between free radicals and Alzheimer\u2019s. Foods high in antioxidants can help to combat the damage free radicals cause. Colorful fruits and veggies are high in <span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-141\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-115\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>antioxidants. Consume them at every meal!<\/p>\n<h3>3. Foods High in Zinc<\/h3>\n<p>Zinc deficiency is common with people who have Alzheimer\u2019s. Foods high in zinc include pumpkin seeds, asparagus, and dark chocolate. However, some sources warn against taking too much zinc. Levels over 40 mg daily should be avoided.<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-139\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-143\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>4.

Sugar<\/h3>\n<p>Similar to diabetes, Alzheimer\u2019s may be caused by insulin resistance. As such, keeping insulin low by eliminating sugar will be a crucial step in maintaining brain health.<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-117\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-140\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>2. Tap Water<\/h3>\n<p><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-164\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>A lot of tap water contains toxics, including aluminum salts. Test your water before drinking it. Check out this <span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-154\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>guide to get you started.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Foods with Additives or Toxins<\/h3>\n<p><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-120\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>Foods with additives and toxins could be neurotoxic. Avoid produce coated with neurotoxic agricultural chemicals. Studies show people with higher levels of organochlorine pesticides in their blood, including DDE, a breakdown compound of DDT, stand a greater chance of developing Alzheimer\u2019s disease.<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-119\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>4. Food Packaged in Aluminum<\/h3>\n<p>Aluminum is neurotoxic at high levels. Research shows aluminum, like iron, enters neurons and accumulates. This leads to neurofibrillary damage, which is linked to Alzheimer\u2019s progression. In particular, you should avoid heating food in aluminum, as the heat is known to release more toxic compounds.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to an Alzheimer\u2019s diet, you might consider some other Alzheimer\u2019s treatment natural remedies, such as supplements and essential oils.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5883\" src=\"http:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/baked-potatoes-1142155_1280-750x422.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/baked-potatoes-1142155_1280-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/baked-potatoes-1142155_1280-750x422-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.loveforhealthyfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/baked-potatoes-1142155_1280-750x422-533x300.jpg 533w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Alzheimer\u2019s treatment natural remedies include the following supplements:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h3>1. Vitamin D3<\/h3>\n<p>A vitamin D3 deficiency could be a contributing factor for Alzheimer\u2019s. Take 5,000 IU daily, as research shows that ample levels of vitamin D can help prevent <span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-152\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>tangles and plaques from forming on the brain.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Ginkgo Biloba<\/h3>\n<p><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-175\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>Ginkgo biloba helps improve brain circulation and memory. As such, it can be an effective Alzheimer\u2019s natural treatment. Take 120 mg every day.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Phosphatidylserine<\/h3>\n<p>Phosphatidylserine improves brain cell communication and memory. It\u2019s shown to be beneficial for early-stage Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Take 300 mg every day.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Astaxanthin<\/h3>\n<p><span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-147\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span>This is a carotenoid antioxidant found in the wild. Research shows it can support brain health. Take 2 to 4 g 2 times daily.<\/p>\n<h3>Essential Oils for Alzheimer\u2019s<\/h3>\n<p>Frankincense oil and rosemary oil are both excellent essential oils to aid in brain function and neurological development. Place 2 drops of frankincense oil on the roof of your mouth twice daily. And after showering, rub rosemary oil onto your scalp.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alzheimer\u2019s accounts for 60 to 80 percent of dementia cases.
