In light of finding this out today, what should I be doing to lower my risks? Well, for one thing, follow this website/forum discussions. Welcome to the club. Genetics are not destiny. The ApoE4 allele was for the vast majority of human evolution the only gene we had, it served early man very well,...

I really appreciate your thoughts! Okay then, one more thing I thought of. Have your heard that ApoE4s tend to recover from head injuries more slowly than ApoE3s or 2s? If you've read our Primer, you know about staying away from head injuries. So don't wrap your kid up in bubble wrap for the rest o...

Surupe, Your lipids may be all over the place, but that may not mean there’s an issue. Are you familiar with Dave Feldman? He’s an ApoE4 and blogs on his website http://cholesterolcode.com/. Back in March I heard him present at Low Carb Breck (video of presentation here: https://denversdietdoctor.co...

And I like your advice on the restriction of my son’s diet...he has a blank slate, so doesn’t need as many restrictions! Makes sense (except for sugar...I plan to severely limit as you suggested also). I recommended being disciplined with sweets but not going crazy because I don’t want your kid to ...

I think I took it for 2 months, then switched to Schiff Digestive Advantage, cheaper and prevalent, I found it at the grocery store and at Walmart. https://www.schiffvitamins.co...

Couple things about homocysteine. My doctor, Dr Gundry, put me on niacinamide, he said this raises homocysteine, so mine now averages about 9, again, not bad, just not ideal per Dr Bredesen. He's comfortable with slightly elevated homocysteine if taking niacinamide and he has more hand-on experience...

Welcome David and Jane. My husband and I share the same genetics as you, he has one 4, ApoE 3/4, and I have two 4s, ApoE 4/4. I think this has helped us. We're both motivated to eat and live a lifestyle to best benefit our genetic situation. It helps to do this as a team. It makes eating meals simpl...

Hey, did anyone else notice this website was cited Peter Attia's website on the interview with Dr Krauss under "Select Links/Related Material"

Im conflicted by the information on whether one needs both THC and CBD for the neuroprotective effects or is CBD alone sufficient? As I tried to convey in the wiki, CBD seems to help with more health concerns of interest to ApoE4 than THC does: inflammation, insulin resistance, stress, sleep (altho...
