We live in a pill-popping culture which turns to medicine for a pill to cure every ill.  In Episode #2 of this groundbreaking series, we learn why current Alzheimer’s medications do not work.

The series is called Alzheimer’s – The Science of Prevention.

Episode  #2 – Untangling Alzheimer’s – What’s Going Wrong  is still available for viewing for a few hours – and at no cost. Registration for the entire series which continues through September 20 is still open!

In this episoda, you’ll learn:

  • What is going wrong in the brain and, more importantly, why current medications do not work
  • Signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease
  • The mechanisms that lead to the development of Alzheimer’s
  • The anatomy of how this disease develops in the brain, how thinking becomes impaired, and why understanding this process is so important
  • Which parts of the brain are affected by Alzheimer’s, how drugs for this disease are supposed to work, and the reasons they don’t
  • How we diagnose Alzheimer’s and the way this disease progresses over time

Personal notes:  I’m honored to help promote Dr. Perlmutter’s message. He is a board-certified neurologist, #1 NYT bestselling author – and a leading voice I’ve closely followed in recent years.

This docu-series will be impactful. Over-reliance on Big Pharma and the need to take charge of one’s own health and wellness … these are topics for which I have had strong interest for many decades.

Science now supports this statement: “The current Alzheimer’s medications do not work.” They are the same as those given to my mother in 1997 – yes, 23 years ago! Almost a quarter century later, we now know they can accelerate cognitive decline.

A prescription, a handful of pills, and a physician order to the nursing home. We can and must do better.

Hope to “see” you there!
