Revealed! Why Alzheimer’s Cures Are FAILING!

In the last week, I’ve read about six drugs failing to help Alzheimer’s patients.
They all followed the same pattern.
The drugs worked OK in laboratory and animal studies – but once they were tried on humans, they were total duds.
And here’s the truth… prescription drugs are NEVER going to cure Alzheimer’s.
Let me show you why… and what to do instead.
As the drug companies scratch their collective heads, trying to figure out what went wrong, the solution is right in front of their faces.
Alzheimer’s is caused by the accumulation of clumps of a protein (called amyloid beta) that gunk up the brains of patients and stop the brain from functioning.
Drug companies have tried two approaches to Alzheimer’s.
They have tried removing plaques (that didn’t work) or to compensate for the loss brain power by increasing other brain chemicals (that failed, too).
The best they can offer is a few more months of life (and not very enjoyable life at that).
Keeping plaques from forming in the first place is your best bet.
Let me show you how…
Dr. Scott’s Better Brain Program
- Eat a diet high in vegetables and good proteins. Yes, your mom was right: eat those veggies! Vegetables contain many powerful nutrients that help your brain. Not getting enough in your diet? Do what I do: use a powdered super-food supplement.
- Avoid processed foods and foods with too much sugar and vegetable oils. These increase inflammation in the body–which is deadly to your brain.
- Keep your blood sugar under control. Blood sugar and brain health are closely tied together. If you need help controlling blood sugar, look to supplements that contain chromium and berberine.
- Eat good fats. The very best fat you can put in your body are the omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil). Not only does your brain need these oils to build a healthy brain, fish oils also help to tamp down runaway inflammation.
- Exercise. There is not a single thing that is better for your brain than exercise. Get out and move your body around every day.
Health and Happiness,
