The Earliest Warning Sign (DON’T IGNORE)

Spotting the early signs of dementia is crucial. Learn more about dementia prevention and find out about one surprising early stage of dementia most people don’t know about. You’d never guess that this could be an early sign of dementia!

the number one early sign of dementia you’ve never heard about this before in fact I just recently found out about it and this involves everyone especially if you want to prevent the different types of dementia Alzheimer’s Etc I think most people know that the first symptom of a heart attack over 50% of the time is death because there is no symptom and the same thing with the liver there really is no symptoms until the later stages when sometimes it’s too late well guess what the brain is the same thing it takes decades to develop dementia and in the meantime there’s virtually no symptoms except one which I’m going to discuss and this is because the different organs especially the brain just keep compensating over a period of time until they can’t compensate anymore and so the earliest sign of dementia involves the retina it’s nerve tissue that is literally sticking out of your skull in your eye socket the retina has certain cells that pick up information from the environment and allows you to see and so they found a very large correlation between in the retina and problems in the brain specifically with the outer layer of the retina and then you have all sorts of issues with the eye itself problems with night vision problems with central vision floaters light sensitivity issues and a lot of times people will just you know get a new set of glasses and they may even develop something called amalo beta plaing on the retina itself at the end of the video and also in the description I’ll tell you what test would pick this information up you also might notice problems with detecting different Shades of Gray or even differentiate different colors as well they also evaluated cadavers brains and so they evaluated the retina with people with cognitive deficit like a mild version of dementia and you start having more inflammation in the nervous system and then things start to go downhill after that and another really interesting thing about the brains of Alzheimer’s patients is they found high levels of a certain microbe that happens to be living in your teeth it’s actually a pathogen and they’re finding that in the plaing of the brain if someone has a dental infection or some type of periodontal disease you could be leaking out bacteria that goes into bloodstream that ends up in the brain I mean we also found Dental bacteria in the plaing of our heart as well I have a very important new solution for all of this but I just want to take a moment to just explain why people actually die from dementia it’s usually from some type of an infection a UTI or maybe lung infection or in the case of my mother-in-law who had Alzheimer’s it was a surgery it created so much stress in the body and after that things just start going down and down a lot faster on the other hand sometimes you have a slow Progressive degeneration of the brain to the point where a person is in hospice and they’re bedridden and then they just stop eating and stop drinking and then that’s what kills them let’s talk about what we can do about this and one of the most important things that you should focus on is cleaning your brain if you have a lot of inflammation and plaing in the brain it’s dirty you can really look at this as like a dishwasher and they call it the glymphatic system that cleans the brain mainly at night that’s one of the big purposes of sleeping is to be able to detoxify and clean the brain so you wake up and things are cleaned out and what I mean by clean the brain is pull out some of these malformed proteins and the plaing and rejuvenate the brain anything that inhibits sleeping increases your risk for Alzheimer’s in fact anything that inhibits your sleeping less than 6 hours increases your risk for heart attacks Strokes cancer blood sugar issues type two diabetes and so if you have sleep apnea that is a problem and if you have sleep apnea I’m going to put a link down below of what to do about it and you need to get eight or nine hours and this is based on a book why we sleep by Dr Matthew Walker fascinating book even one night of less than seven hours of sleep you’re going to have 50% more buildup of amalo beta plaing how do we get more sleep and another factor in getting quality sleep is the avoidance of alcohol one cup of alcohol prevents a significant part of your REM sleep you might feel like you’re sleeping because it’s a sedative but you’re not getting the quality of sleep if you’re drinking several times a week this could be a huge problem with the quality of sleep and also in the prevention of Alzheimer’s it can shut down growth hormone by 50% it’s an anti-aging hormone it helps you lose weight alcohol is really bad for your brain and we want to flood the brain with a lot of oxygen how do we get oxygen in the brain exercise regular consistent exercise hands down is one of the most important things to do to prevent Alzheimer’s in other types of dementia people who are sedentary do not get the oxygen in the brain getting oxygen to the brain lessens something called hypoxia that’s a word that describes lack of oxygen and with hypoxia you get inflammation when you exercise you make the brain healthier you grow brain cells and you stimulate something called bdnf brain derived neurotrophic Factor that’s like Miracle Grow for your brain and there’s also a tiny little mechanism deep in the brain that regulates the rhythm of your sleep it’s called the supermatic nucleus not that you need to know that name but that’s what it is and that thing is so important to regulate the sleep cycles a couple ways to get that working is during the daylight get a lot of sun and then start to go to bed when it gets dark vitamin D in higher amounts can reset that mechanism I would recommend taking about 20,000 international units of vitamin D and then there’s also the fuel that you feed the brain if you’re living on carbohydrates and sugar you’re going to create a starvation on the nerve cells you really want to put your brain in a state of ketosis the brain cells love ketones how do you get into ketosis you lower your carbohydrate if you have signs of dementia I would highly recommend that you take ketones as a supplement and you also take on a regular basis MCT oil because MCT oil can turn into ketones and feed the brain directly we want to flood that brain with a lot of ketones as far as nutrition goes I think out of all the nutrients nasin is going to be very important for the brain I would start up maybe with 50 milligrams for a period of time then go to 100 milligrams per day and then eventually up to 500 milligrams per day you got to do it slowly because some people can’t tolerate the flushing response I kind of like the flushing response it’s not dangerous it just will create a vas or dilation effect since we’re on the topic of sleep if you want to take your sleep to the next level you should watch this video right here check it out
