thankfully, 2016 marks a year of progress and some pretty signi cant
Alzheimer’s breakthroughs. Let me share some of them with you.
The good news is that there are Alzheimer’s natural treatment options
that can effectively improve this condition. Recently, scientists are also
uncovering major Alzheimer’s breakthroughs that may, one day, lead us
to a cure.

fresh fruits and vegetables (especially leafy greens like spinach and
kale and non-starchy veggies like eggplant, cauli ower, artichokes,
tomatoes and fennel)
olive oil
nuts and seeds (like almonds and sesame seeds used to make
tahini)
legumes and beans (especially lentils and chickpeas used to make
hummus)
herbs and spices (like oregano, rosemary and parsley)
whole grains
eating wild-caught sh and seafood at least twice a week
high-quality, pasture-raised poultry, eggs, cheese, goat milk, and
probiotic-rich ke r or yogurt consumed in moderation
red meat consumed on special occasions or about once weekly
plenty of fresh water and some coffee or tea

While any type of exercise is certainly better than sitting around, if you’re
time strapped, Burst training, also known as high-intensity interval
training, or HIIT, is a great option. Here are 3 HIIT workouts to help you
get started.
Keep in mind, though, that we need more research on how HIIT impacts
the brain. We know that it does melt away fat faster than traditional
steady state cardio (and a lower BMI lowers your risk of the tangles and
plaques associated with Alzheimer’s, according to the latest UCLA
study). However, a previous study did nd that steady state cardio
creates more brain neurons compared to weight training or HIIT. (4)

Humans are social creatures, and working directly with other people
instead of primarily with data or things seems to offer protection against
Alzheimer’s.
In the lab, the plant compounds blocked the disease by easing cellular
in ammation and removing toxic amyloid proteins on brain cells. This is
a rst-of-its-kind study showing that cannabinoids affect both
in ammation and amyloid beta accumulation in nerve cells. Clinical
trials are now needed to see if the promising results hold true in humans,
too. (8, 9, 10)

(Bonus info: Sleep positions matter. Side sleeping improves one of the
brain’s waste-clearing processes, lowering the risk for neurological
diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.)
Foods to Eat
Organic, unprocessed foods — Make sure you diet includes plenty of
“real foods.” These are foods that don’t have an ingredient listing.
Vegetables, clean meats and fruit in moderation are all important foods
to consume.
Wild-caught sh — A great source for omega-3 fats, DHA speci cally,
which are critical for brain health.

zinc. Foods high in zinc include pumpkin seeds, grass-fed beef and dark
chocolate.
Foods to Avoid
Any food containing toxins or additives — These foods can possibly
be neurotoxic.Be sure to especially avoid the “dirty dozen“: nonorganic
fruits and vegetables that are coated with neurotoxic agricultural
chemicals. Studies show people with higher levels of organochlorine
pesticides in their blood, including DDE, a breakdown compound of DDT,
face a higher risk of Alzheimer’s disease. (15, 16) It’s also best to avoid
any processed foods.
Alcohol — Alcohol is a toxin and can cause brain cells to die faster than
normal. In fact, there is such a thing as “alcohol-related dementia.”
Research shows that the frontal lobes of people diagnosed
with alcoholism appear particularly susceptible to damage, with
evidence of markedly decreased neuron density, volume shrinkage, and
altered glucose metabolism and perfusion. (17)
at high levels, so it’s best to avoid it. In fact, research shows aluminum
enters neurons similarly to how iron does, leading to aluminum
accumulation and neuro brillary damage linked to Alzheimer’s
progression. (18) You should particularly avoid heating food in
aluminum; the heat is known to release more toxic compounds.
Along with diet, try these alzheimer’s remedies as part of your natural
treatment protocol.
