Tackling Alzheimer's Disease Head On - the Inspiring Work of Dr. Heather Sandison

Dr. Kara Fitzgerald | New Frontiers in Functional Medicine, Longevity, Epigenetics

Dr. Sandison confesses that when she first heard Dr. Dale Bredesen talk about his work reversing cognitive decline and Alzheimer's disease she was skeptical. But when she started to apply the Bredesen principles in her clinical work and saw just how meaningful the improvements were to patients' symptoms and quality of life, as she puts it: "...how do I do anything else with my life, but basically tell as many people who will listen that this is possible?" She then went on to found the first two residential care facilities for individuals with cognitive decline that are based on the Bredesen approach. She's published research on her clinical outcomes and is continuing to gather more data for publication. The information and inspiration she shares are relevant to anyone dealing with cognitive decline, caring for someone with cognitive decline, or even those of us who want to preserve and optimize cognitive function as we move through life. I found her report that environmental toxins were one of the most common findings among her patient population illuminating. - DrKF
