One of my favorite movies with him was McKenna’s Gold.
I am sorry for anyone with Alzheimer’s. It’s incredibly debilitating and over a long period of time, you suffer. The family suffers. Both suffer financially. Your friends suffer. It’s awful.
Alzheimer’s may turn out to be largely avoidable, and possible to arrest, and perhaps reverse.
Get the added sugar and grains out of the diet. Add fats, esp. DHA & EPA Omega 3 (not ALA, which you get enough of). Ditch the PUFA grain oils. Either Perlmutter’s “Brain Maker” (2015) or Davis’ “Wheat Belly Total Health” (2014) are a great place to start.
Even Perlmutter is starting to refer to Alz as Diabetes Type 3, which he heretofore was reluctant to do.
Yes, the USDA’s MyPlateOfMetabolicSyndrome diet, high carb, high grain, low fat, has been a 40 year experiment that has failed massively (and was based on no science at all, but lots of politics & money concerns).
