233: Giving Care for Dementia - Plant Medicine for Dementia: How Cannabinoids Transformed Our Dementia Journey with Dementia Coach Diane Chew

1 hour 23 minutes

In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode of The Whole Body Detox Show (Ep. 233), David DeHaas of Living Waters Wellness Center sits down with Dementia Coach Diane Chew, whose husband Ben is living with Lewy Body Dementia, one of the most aggressive and least understood forms of dementia.

Diane shares her remarkable journey navigating traditional pharmaceuticals, misdiagnoses, and caregiver burnout—until she discovered the life-changing potential of plant-based medicine, specifically THC and CBG (Cannabigerol). Learn how a strategic combination of cannabis-derived compounds—guided by clinically-informed nurse support—helped Ben find calm, restored sleep, and improved daily function without the severe side effects of antipsychotic drugs.

💡 What You’ll Learn:

What is Lewy Body Dementia and how it differs from Alzheimer’s
The dangers and side effects of antipsychotic meds in dementia care
How CBG and low-dose THC can reduce anxiety, agitation, and sleep disruptions
Why personalized dosing and medical cannabis education matter
The importance of caregivers documenting symptoms and advocating for proper diagnosis
