Re: Interaction between Alcohol Consumption and Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) Genotype with Cognition in Middle-Aged Men
When I mean by "once a while," it's clearly well within "light drinking" in the meaning of this paper--one 8 oz beer or hard cider, or 5 oz of red wine, every 2-3 weeks (at most). I suppose it's safe, but I'm not sure. That sure seems “very light” to me. From listening to severa...

Re: Interaction between Alcohol Consumption and Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) Genotype with Cognition in Middle-Aged Men
I can't find a free version of this, but I think it's quite important for this question: is it fine for me to drink some wine or hard cider once a while? Hi lumia! This is one of those thorny questions on which it seems the researchers' answer for any specific individual is "it depends": ...

Re: The MIND Diet
SarahAnne, In previous posts I've explained how I dehydrate, powder and encapsulate a variety of greens. I use it as an addition to eating fresh greens, not as a substitute. It's handy if you are too busy or traveling and can't eat enough of the fresh. I can see that you've been very active in read...

Re: "ApoE4 does not influence brain function at young age"
Our results suggest that solely APOE ε4-carriership does not influence brain function at a young age. My personal experience and observation of known ε4 carriers early in life would agree with this statement. One anecdote, my mother was a very bright woman. She died with dementia at 87. I have no i...

"ApoE4 does not influence brain function at young age"
Here is some good news for young carriers of ApoE4 from a poster session by Lara Mentink of the Netherlands at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference today. Study size matters--especially when drawing conclusions about all young people with ApoE4 from a decade-old study of a few dozen....

Re: URGENT: Biomarker Study Opportunity for ApoE4.Info Members
...I spoke with my doctor who seemed, initially, onboard with helping me navigate through some of this. I sent her Dale Bredesen’s book so she could see the cognoscopy list and suspect she has gotten daunted. She mentioned another of her patients is working with a functional medicine doctor and sug...

If it’s not too late - I would very much like to be included. Many thanks. Hi Ljflynn47! I hope you're enjoying the sometimes-crazy process of browsing around this forum. Even people who use it a lot often call it "drinking from a fire hose". The "title" of this topic is a bit c...

Re: APOE 4/4 4x increase in mortality from Covid-19
I just got on here for this subject and I'm amazed there's only 5 comments! Is this a big deal or not? I'm 48 4/4 and mthfr 4/4. What's the good news about being apoe4/4? Welcome, TH23, from another ApoE 4/4 who is 20 years older than you and still going strong! To try to give a balanced view, the ...

Re: Has anyone worked with any doctors at the Cleveland Clinic/functional medicine
I am located in Cleveland and was wondering if there was anyone in functional or conventional medicine that is aware of and knowledgable about Apoe4 Hi again Shannon (I'm the same person who responded to your other post.) The Cleveland Clinic has a commitment to complementary medicine and brain hea...

So I decided to impulsively run my raw DNA into Promethase this weekend and I was flagged for being heterozygous 3/4 I just turned 24 last month...I will not lie my heart dropped when I read the statistics for it, and I am trying not to think about it all the time but I find myself thinking I'll...
