Re: Phospholipid Therapy Review

We've essentially concluded that the potential warnings surrounding choline supplementation should be heeded in the context of an overall unhealthy diet/lifestyle.

Re: Is there research showing benefit of low fat diet for apoe4 phenotype?

Hello, Does anyone on this forum know of published research that suggests that a low fat diet (all fat, not just saturated) is helpful for mitigating cardio vascular disease for those with apoE4 phenotypes? A low fat (<25% of calories from fat) has been the recommendation of a cardiologist for a pa...

Re: Using RAPA for AD prevention

How has Rapamycin protocol been going for you? I have been reading about possible side effects of raised lipids, triglycerides and glucose issues. It does NOT appear to impact everyone but I am concerned that by introducing one drug, I will need to take another (i.e. diabetes medication, lipid medi...

Re: Questions about Apollo recipes & cholesterol

Why does the Apollo site have so many recipes containing butter, coconut oil, MCT's, saturated fats we aren't supposed to have and other foods we are not supposed to eat? I thought Apollo was specifically tailored to ApoE4's who absorb cholesterol at higher rates than the general public and therefo...

Re: Eztemibe reduced LDL but not ApoB

Hi everyone, I thought I would update my post since my recent lab test results show I finally decreased my ApoB to 80 (from 125 in March). Hooray! My LDL also dropped further from 192 in March to 102 recently. I guess my body just took a while to adjust to the Ezetimibe. Good news! I can't answer y...

Re: Interesting talk by Dr. Kellyanne Niotis on APOE4, lipidology, and preventive neurology

There are two main genes to review: ABCG5 and ABCG8. Did your doctor mention changing your diet at all before trying a dr...
