A Science based Resource FOR APOE4 Carriers to FIGHT ALZHEIMER'S

Our Memories Are Precious And We Deserve To Keep Them. But How?

This site was started because most people are not aware that Alzheimer’s can be prevented and reversed.  When I received the results from a 23andMe test, I was floored when I learned that I was homozygous Apoe4.  Ninety-one percent of homozygous Apoe4 carriers will get Alzheimer’s.  I was determined to be part of the nine percent that doesn’t. 

I spent the last two years studying Alzheimer’s.  How to prevent and reverse it.  Although by no means an expert, I found hundreds of randomized clinical trials that have provided evidence of positive cognitive outcomes in Alzheimer’s and MCI patients. Those RCTs are cataloged within this site.    Randomized clinical trials are the gold standard of measuring clinical treatment outcomes.  Really they are the only way.  There are thousands of examples of how in vitro, animal and observational studies do not reflect what happens in the human body. Pertinent RCTs are cataloged within this site.  My goal is to pass on that information so that you can benefit from it.  All of us can fight Alzheimer’s and win, I am convinced of that.

Diet

Apoe4 carriers metabolize food differently than non-carriers which is a contributing factor to Alzheimer's. Which diet can reduce your risk?

Supplements

Randomized clinical trials using Alzheimer's patients have shown positive effects from a variety of supplements. Click and take a look.

Sleep

Adequate sleep is a critical component of preventing cognitive decline. Deep sleep is particularly important for Apoe4 carriers.

Exercise

The scientific data is clear, exercise has positive effects on Alzheimer's disease. But what type of exercise has the biggest effect?

Socialize

Humans are social creatures. Socializing seems like an unusual way to fight Alzheimer's, but it is critical. See the data for yourself.
