Re: Gene IL-6 and AD risk
Has anybody looked at this, its a big enough challenge having APOE4 status let alone having another AD risk! Our genes are not necessarily our destiny, but there are things we can do to support/counter variants we'd rather not have. In relation to IL6-174 Gene and AD risk, this article seems to be ...

Re: Why Such a High Baseline Glucose?
On a recent trip to the Oregon coast, I decided to minimize this intake & hence reduce my fat intake. The observation was that my fasting glucose declined by 15-20 mg/dL... Interesting to see that much drop just by stopping the nuts. I stopped eating nuts due to oxalates but don't recall any no...

What does your current % fat intake look like these days?Tincup wrote:I've noticed that reducing my fat intake will lower my morning glucose.
And how much do you think you dropped the % fat to see an impact on your morning reading?
Always in tweaking mode and this could prove helpful for me...

Re: Eztemibe reduced LDL but not ApoB
Coconut products always raise my lipid numbers. Can't speak to dairy because I can't eat it without problems. I switched from coconut milk to flax milk (Good Karma, unsweetened) with good results. It might be worth a try.spokanecathy wrote:Have any hyperabsorbers out there figured out which foods increase your ApoB?

Re: Celebration Thread! Biogen is going to the FDA with Aducan.
The problem until this point has been that we had to wait and wait and watch for all these years and years as our loved ones progressed from slight but noticeable cognitive impairment, to MCI, to early AD, to moderate AD, to severe AD and then to complete dependence AD. AD has been our life. Hope t...

Re: Delirium
I now have the problem that one my wife gets up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet she won't go back to sleep. And there is potential for Suvorexant to have other positive effects. Here's a link to another thread with the details, and note it's very early in the research cycle. (Edit, N...

Re: Overwhelming anxiety
I have OCD truly struggling with keeping it under control with this news. I'm guessing that pretty much everyone on this forum struggled mightily with the initial news, and over time, the emotions settle because we realize just how much we can do to minimize the risk. Feeling you can do something p...
