Alzheimer's is the 7th leading cause of death.
Before the age of 65 there is only one chance in 1,000 of contracting Alzheimer's disease.
However, at 65 there is one chance in only 20 of escaping.
By the time you reach the age of 80, one in five has Alzheimer's ....and by the age of 85, one in two people has the disease.
There are no cures - you can ONLY rely on Natural Cures earlier in your life, like diet and a stress relief plan of action, to prevent the conditions that foster disease.

"Pharmaceutical drugs come with information sheets listing voluminous side effects that range from irritating to deadly.
When a drug is introduced into the body to treat a malfunction in one protein, that drug inevitable interacts with at least one and possibly many other proteins.
Complicating the drug side-effec issue is also the fact that biological systems are redundant. The same signals or protein molecules may be simultaneously used in different organs and tissues where they provide for completely different behavioral functions."
Bruce H. Lipton, PhD

presupposes the existence

emotional issues,
whether the patient
is consciously aware
of them or not."

"Single-gene disorders affect less than 2% of the population; the vast majority of people come into this world with genes that should enable them to live a happy and healthy life.
The diseases that are today's scourges -- diabetes, heart diseases, and cancer -- short circuit a happy and healthy life.
These diseases, however, are not the result of a single gene, but of complex interactions among multiple genes and environmental factors."

Diet specifics.
- 80% of the diet is fruits, vegetables, bread and other cereals, potatoes, beans, nuts and seeds.
- Olive oil is the primary monounsaturated fat source
- Dairy products, red meat and poultry are eaten infrequently
- Fish and eggs are consumed one to four times a week
- Red wine is consumed in low to moderate amounts
Switching to a Mediterranean diet is easy. Eat small portions of high-quality food that tastes delicious and you'll maintain your optimum body weight. Choose plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, limit red meat, and eat fish at least once a week. Switch to skim milk, fat-free yogurt and low-fat cheese.
The Mediterranean Diet Action Plan
- Eat a variety of whole fruits and vegetables every day in seven to 10 servings. Fruit salads are a wonderful way to eat a variety of healthy fruit.
- Have snack-foods on handy- carrots, celery, apples, bananas, avocados, walnuts, almonds, pecans and Brazil nuts. Eat organic natural peanut butter without the sugars.
- Use canola or olive oil in cooking. Use olive oil for salad dressing and to replace dairy. Dip bread in flavored olive oil or lightly spread it on whole-grain bread.
- Add fish and poultry (replacing red meat and eliminate sausage, bacon and high-fat meats.)
Exercise is a big part of a healthy lifestyle.
Eat grilled (in olive oil) or baked fish once or twice a week.
Healthier choices are water-packed tuna, salmon, trout, mackerel and herring.
Eat "deep sea caught and quick frozen and not "local off-shore" fish to avoid pollutants and mercury. - Whole grains in their natural state are full of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. Use whole grain foods like bread, pasta, potatoes, polenta, rice, and couscous. "Ezekial 4:9" bread is organic and wheat and gluten free...and comes with cinnamon and raisons too.
- Enjoy a glass of red wine with meals. Red wine lowers the rates of heart disease, due to antioxidants (transresveratrol and oligomeric proanthocyanidin (OPC) keep blood circulation healthy and prevent blood clots from forming.)
- Fruit for dessert is naturally sweet and has fiber and nutrients (apples, grapes, and oranges). Omit pastry and processed sweats. Use honey as a natural sweetner - and for hot drinks - don't heat over 105º to retain it's nutritional and curative properties.
- Natural teas. Boil water in a glass pot and add fresh mint, eucalyptus leaves or organic varieties - Steep and serve. Make healthy natural teas with ginger and lemon grass: boil in a glass pot for 20 minutes.
- Take a walk. The Mediterranean diet is successful in part because the people walk everywhere -- and exercise is a natural part of the Mediterranean lifestyle. Your body can not function without it - and your lymph system needs movement to work at all. Once you have increased your nutrition you'll find you have the added energy to walk or ride your bike.
