Re: Why do different types of saturated fat affect the ApoE4 brain differently?

However, based on my experience, I am increasingly suspicious that it is not saturated fat per se that is the cause. It might be the form of that saturated fat. Try reading the ApoE4.info wiki: Coconut Oil, MCT oil, and other Ketone/Cognition Boosters (salts, esters) . I think that would help expla...

Re: talk about prevention strategies?

Anyone want to talk about prevention strategies? The biggies for prevention that are typically cited are diet, exercise, sleep, reducing chronic stress and avoiding toxins. Although the devil is in the details. For example, there are folks who are convinced a carnivore diet is the only way to go, a...

Re: Omega 3

Hi can someone please share the best brand and how much omega 3 should be taken daily for 4/4. . I can’t believe no one has responded! Placing importance on Omega-3 consumption is one of the incontrovertible tenants for ApoE4s! It’s a little disconcerting if no one else has knowledge on this. This ...

Re: Modifiable risks and APOE 4/4

Does following the practices Dr. Attia promotes decrease the risk to normal level? Assuming the majority of those with the 3/4 and 4/4 that get AD did not take any preventable measures such as exercise or proper diet. I'm not familiar with Dr Attia's ApoE4 protocol, I do know I appreciate most of w...
