Update to help those newly diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer's

My wife knows someone whose husband was recently diagnosed with Early Onset Alzheimer’s and she asked me to send her some info. I sent her my blog address and told her she may want to start at the first post though by reading through to the end and then Click on the “Older Posts” link which goes to

http://thestevenalztreatment.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2015-07-05T12:09:00-07:00&max-results=7

or she can start at the first blog post by clicking on the above link and upon finishing all of that (it could take some days) she can then click on “Newer Posts” link button to read the latest posts.

One more book she should read that I got from a forum is http://www.amazon.com/Im-Still-Here-Philosophy-Alzheimers/dp/1583333762  and this was mentioned in post at

https://www.alzconnected.org/discussion.aspx?g=posts&t=2147521497

The forum for caregivers and those with ALZ is at https://www.alzconnected.org/ and she can read caregivers and he can read the one with younger onset Alzheimer

Another link with more reading material is http://www.alzheimersreadingroom.com

Lots of info here

An alzconnected posting also pointed me to an interesting blog by Kate Swaffer http://kateswaffer.com/2015/08/17/slowing-the-progression-of-dementia/ which I didn't send her. I hope she reads this sometime later but she has so much to read.

After starting to read my blog and scheduled an appt with a bio-dentist for her husband she had more questions so I sent her the following info to answer some of her questions. I guess my blog has a lot of blind spots since most of the info is in the books. Since it take months to read all the books and people want to get going quickly this info may help.

One thing Huggins recommends, and Groton Wellness follows, is do a blood test prior to having any amalgams removed to determine what each patient is sensitive to regarding personal reactive allergies.  http://www.ccrlab.com is the lab Groton Wellness used and their phlebotomist was able to draw blood there and send to the lab.  You might also be able to see your own primary care doctor and provide the kit provided by Clifford and have them draw your blood and have them send it out to Clifford.  The purpose of the test is to ensure that the composites for fillings, crowns and cement used are compatible with the patient’s blood chemistry (no allergic or toxic reactions) instead of replacing one and see how he does.  If the patient is reactive to the composite used it could be almost as bad as the mercury.  There are about 4000 dental products used by dentists and Clifford will see if the ones normally used by the dentist is compatible and list alternative materials compatible with the patient.

A blood test can also determine what minerals your body needs as what Huggins Assist report provided.  Alternatively, a good person we used using EAV could do something similar.  A practitioner at Groton and NH, Vera Sacks http://verasacks.com/personalized-healing-system or http://www.grotonwellness.com/dental/practitioners/vera-saks-eav-practitioner may be able to help.  It might be cheaper to go to her office in NH since most health plans won’t cover it.

If your husband is going to get a blood draw, he should consider QuickSilver Scientifiic’s Tri-Test https://www.quicksilverscientific.com to determine how his mercury levels are currently before amalgam removals.  Huggins recommends another check 6 months after amalgam removal to determine the detox effectiveness following treatment. 

Natural detox such as FAR infrared sauna does not require approval by a primary care doctor.  Groton Wellness has a sauna but we purchased a Clearlight Organic Hemp Curve dome one ourselves since we will both be using it many times.  We got ours at http://holisticsaunas.com which has the best info and prices I could find.  You can spend lots of time reading and learning about sauna’s from here and the best way to use the sauna for detox. There are no adverse effects when doing sauna at low FAR sauna temps.

The detox process can take a year or more but after removal at least your husband won’t have constantly taking in 150 mcg of mercury per filling to make his symptoms worse.  FAR sauna is usually also complemented with vitamin C and Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) and other holistic detox methods. Groton also provides IV's of vitamin C and ALA.  Other chemical detox is possible with primary care doctor supervision but Huggins and others don’t often recommend it since the liver, kidney’s and other systems may already be overwhelmed from years of trying to remove mercury and a large influx of mercury from chem detox may overwhelm the organs with more mercury than it can handle and cause mercury to vacate one organ for another which will cause adverse effects.

I would recommend reading Huggin’s “It’s All In Your Head” and the Tom Warren’s “Beating Alzheimer’s” ASAP and reading some of those other books since they go over diet and detox which is part of the protocol.
