Cognitive Decline and Memory Loss
Friday, April 17th, 2009Cognitive decline and memory loss are now considered inevitable consequences of aging. This could not be further from the truth. They are the natural result of a lifetime of oxidative and inflammatory injury to brain tissue. There is much we can do naturally to decrease oxidative stress and inflammation effects on our body as well as our brain.
We can support ourselves through making healthy choices when it comes to the foods we eat, the way we move and how we spend our free time. Studies have shown that people who consume a diet low in saturated fats (meat and dairy products) and rich in olive oil, legumes, grains, fruits, nuts and vegetables lower their risk of developing Alzheimer’s. Nutritional support to help support the body’s natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory system can be found in an array of supplements, whole foods including berries and grapes, and herbs including ginger, ginkgo biloba, and rosemary. Surprisingly hops, the bitter ingredient of beer, helps memory, according to research.
Improved oxygen flow to the brain also helps tremendously. Exercise (both physical and mental) has a protective effect on the brain and its mental processes, and may even help prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Get physical by taking a walk everyday or taking dance lessons or some other form of exercise you enjoy. Get mental exercise by taking up crosswords, do crafts, take up a hobby you enjoy, even socializing is brain protective. We all strive to live long happy lives; lets make sure we can remember them as well.
Announcing a new program: Customer Petition with Testimonials
A startling number of reports reveal the FDA is in far worse shape than originally thought. The political forces are now looking at changing the US healthcare system and revamping FDA.
Now more than ever it clear that without releasing the power of the systematic use supplements we don’t stand a chance to reduce cost in the health care system.
Washington is going to spend $ 1.1 billion on Comparative Effectiveness Research. The purpose of this research is to determine which drugs, devices, and procedures are most effective and carry the lowest risk.
We are petitioning government and public figures to spend half of that money on researching nutritional systems. We also request equal financial support to whatever type of health care a person chooses.
Writing to Congress is the single best way to express your view on public policy. You have a surprising ability to influence legislation by crafting a well-written UNIQUE and PERSONAL message. Such message is more effective than 1000 form letters. We want to help you get your story to Washington and be part of changing the way healthcare in America is administered. We need your help!

Petition to Research Nutritional Supplement Systems
A startling number of reports reveal the FDA is in far worse shape than originally thought.
To follow please find my own unique and personal testimonial of my experience with using a specific nutritional supplement system:

For this reason I have asked Dr. Clark Store to send the following petition to you. I am aware that they will reveal to you a password protected website with Dr. Hulda Clark’s research requests and hundreds of testimonials from people following her protocols. I do not have access to this website. Please, as a favor to me, check out that website and tell me what your response is to my requests:
US Government, this is what we request you do:
- Taxpayer funds earmarked for research are split 50/50 between researching for profit (patented) drugs and researching nutritional supplement systems.
- Half of Comparative Effectiveness Research budget to be used on researching nutritional supplement systems and un-approved bio-resonance devices.
- Eliminate FDA’s regulatory authority over supplements and establish a new agency, called the Nutritional Administration whose sole purpose is to regulate the supplement industry and distribute money to research nutritional systems.
- All Americans have equal access to conventional medical health care without economic barriers, as well as the equal financial support to whatever type of health care they want, whether it is conventional medicine, or natural and holistic; whether it is preventive or critical care, whether it is from licensed conventional providers, or from practitioners of non-invasive approaches within the community.

When researching nutritional supplement systems please ensure the following is considered:
Nutritional Supplement Systems:
It is of limited use to conduct research on only one supplement at a time. We would like research that evaluates the synergistic effect of several supplements – taken in a certain way – like when cleansing.For example, we all know that AIDS is now fought with a cocktail of drugs (albeit toxic) – not a single drug. Nutritional Supplement Systems use a cocktail of supplements to achieve a set goal.
Ethical Studies:
We need to make sure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated, for instance:
- supplement quality and doses have to be known and disclosed in research study
- all supplements that participants are taking that are not a part of the study have to be disclosed.
- funding for supplement studies should be independent of both drug and supplement manufacturers interest groups.
Make Funding Available:
Most Natural Therapy Systems have never been studied because of lack of funding. The funding available now is “symbolic” and difficult to get. We feel the government entities that claim to be helping with research actually probably spend more money telling the public that they are helping us than they spend on allocating money for research on supplements. We feel that the amount of funds spent on much needed Nutritional Supplement Systems should be equal to the amount spent on pharmaceutical drugs. If only we could receive research assistance as the powerful drug companies do then the public would have the benefit of knowledge in both areas of effective treatments.
