Intro

Before outlining brain disease fighting strategies, it’s important you understand some basic facts about it, how much power you have over it, and the simple choices you can make to avoid or overcome brain disease.

Facts

. The two most serious brain diseases are strokes and Alzheimer’s.[1]

. Strokes are caused by blood flow getting cut off to the brain, and like heart attacks they often end in sudden death.[2]

. Alzheimer’s is caused by plaque buildup in the arteries of the brain, and results in a slow deterioration of the brain.[3]

. The good news: like so many other organs in the body, the brain has a miraculous ability to heal itself.[4]

. Reducing cholesterol and blood pressure, while improving blood flow and antioxidant intake through diet, along with heavy metal detox, adequate exercise and rest, and social/mental stimulation is the way to better brain health.[5]

Little lifestyle tweaks can make a huge difference.

Let’s look at those now…

. Magnesium — blocks aluminum protects cells.[38]

. Lion’s mane — regrows brain reverses disease.[39]

Bad

. Methylene blue — bad neurotoxin accumulator.[40]

Miscellaneous

General

. QZE — quantum physics habit, ups brain activ..[41]

. Sleep — lack of is bad for brain and stroke risk.[42]

. AI chat — shun, linked decrease brain function.[43]

. Exercise — reverses brain aging goal 4day/wk.[44]

. Smoking — tobacco & cannabis are really bad.[45]

. Cookware — glass or stainless steel no alumi..[46]

. Deodorant — antiperspirant do aluminum-free.[47]

. Essential oil — orange lemon sage ups cognit..[48]

. 5G & EMF — and phones increase disease risk.[49]

. Fluoride — neurotoxin, lowers IQ, best to avoid.[50]

Extreme Cases

. Autism — maybe cured via heavy metal detox?[51]

. Coconut — may improve cognition in Alzheim..[52]

. Ivermectin — Nobel winner can cure Alz/Park..[53]

. Schizophrenia — exercise wfpb fast restores.[54]

Endnote

. And prayer — prayer changes molecules(!).[55]
