I'm rescheduling the NORCAL Meet up to Sunday April 26, 10:00 am outside of Peet's Coffee just south of San Rafael, at 276 Bon Air Center, Greenbrae, CA 94904. I have sent private messages to all that have expressed interest. If you did not receive a PM, and you would like to be added to my list let...

This Sunday 2/16 is cancelled. I'm working on getting a new date. If you did not get a Private Message from me and are interested in coming, please either respond here or send me a PM. I'll post the new date once we get consensus.

If we get to that point, I would hope insurance would pay for it. In the meantime, I'm a great believer in lifestyle interventions! Thanks for the detailed response NF52 - Like others have said, you are one of the gems on this site! I've been busy (or I would have provided links on my prior post......

NF52, I'm unclear what you are saying here: I found out that "loss of neurons" is not years after other biomarkers like amyloid-beta and tau tangles are seen on PET scans. There are studies that show loss of brain size in people likely to get AD later in life (either EOAD genes or ApoE4) w...

It says that aerobic exercise improves cardio-respiratory fitness -- no doubt about that--, which they say increases glucose metabolism in the brain. That's certainly important, although I wonder how they make the connection between cardio-respiratory fitness and glucose metabolism in the brain. Am...

I'm new and confused also...don't have my APOE status so I looked around on the Promethiase site and noticed this (Note that Promethease reports from Ancestry data will not return accurate ApoE status due to lack of relevant data.)...Is this common knowledge? In light of this statement, is the best...

Do I assume that the only complex carbs he is recommending would be vegetables (and not grains, beans and oats)? Mel, you might get by with Yams. Try some and test your blood sugar before and then an hour and then two hours after. See what kind of spike you get, and how fast it comes down. I can't ...

I've had no one respond that they are interested in meeting this Sunday. Since Monday is a holiday, would it make sense to push it out to later in February or March?

Finally, one BIG conceptual question that I still don’t really understand: are markers like insulin resistance, hypertension, diabetes, precursors to AD? In other words, if I adopt a lifestyle that follows the Bredesen Protocol (and other plant-based whole food models, paying close attention to exe...
