  • Preventing Alzheimer's with Health Coaching | Coach Julie Luby Ep.012

    Today, I am very honored to introduce Coach Julie Luby. Julie is a National Board Certified and Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach, who's formal education was Food Science and Nutrition. She's spent four decades as a product development leader in the food industry, where she led creative teams and worked with clients around the world to bring their new food ideas to life. While she loved being immersed in the food world, the grueling and unsustainable pace of it led her make a conscious decision to create more time to take care of her own health needs and enroll in the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy. At about the same time, a family member was struggling with cognitive decline and she was introduced to the Bredesen Protocol at Dr. Bredesen's first patient immersion in 2017. She now helps clients avoid or reverse chronic conditions like type 2 diabetes and cognitive decline and alongside Dr. Bredesen has co-created training modules, teaches the Mastering Mold Toxicity course and leads three support groups for Apollo Health. Her work has been invaluable to my dad and family and I am very grateful for to be with us today.

  • Parkinson's Disease Halted by Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) | Daphne Bryan, Ep.010

    Today, I am very honored to introduce Daphne Bryan. Daphne Bryan, PhD is the author of the book titled Parkinson's and the B1 Therapy. After being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease over 15 years ago, she was told there was no way to halt the progression of this condition. In 2017, she was introduced to the work of the late Dr. Antonio Constantini, who pioneered the use of high-dose Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) as a treatment for Parkinson's. Although not a cure, Dr. Constantini and his team had treated over 2,500 patients with thiamine and witnessed amazing results far beyond what could be expected from traditional medications. A few months after starting B1, she eventually noticed that many of her symptoms had all but resolved. After networking with many others who were also seeing similar improvements, Daphne dedicated herself to providing detailed guidance on how to use the therapy from a layman's perspective. Daphne is also a musician, teacher and holds a doctorate in music psychology. Her work and insights have been an invaluable resource to me, my dad and my family and I am grateful for her to be with us today.

  • This Doctor's Stunning Alzheimer's Discovery: Ketones | Dr. Mary Newport Ep.004

    Today, I am very honored to introduce our guest, Dr. Mary Newport. Mary Newport, M.D. graduated from Xavier University and University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. She trained in pediatrics at Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, and in neonatology at the Medical University Hospital in Charleston, South Carolina. She practiced neonatology, the care of sick and premature newborns, for thirty years and was founding medical director for two newborn intensive care units in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. More recently, she practiced at the opposite end of the spectrum, providing home hospice care and health risk assessments. In 2008, a ketogenic nutritional intervention with coconut and medium-chain triglyceride oil dramatically helped her husband Steve Newport, who had early-onset Alzheimer's disease, resulting in nearly four better quality years. Her husband lost his battle in 2016 and Dr. Newport carries on his legacy as an author of four books and international speaker on ketones as an alternative fuel for the brain. Her fourth book Clearly Keto for Healthy Brain Aging and Alzheimer's Prevention focuses on a whole food ketogenic Mediterranean-style diet and other lifestyle modifications to help maintain brain health and prevent Alzheimer's and other dementias. She is the first hero I looked up to and studied when we started on this path with my dad and I am very grateful for her to be with us today.

  • The Doctor Reversing Alzheimer's | Dr. Dale Bredesen Ep.003

    Today, I am very honored to introduce none other than Dr. Dale Bredesen. Dr. Bredesen is the internationally recognized neuroscientist and neurologist behind the Bredesen Protocol, also known as the ReCODE Protocol for reversing cognitive decline. He's had great success with individual participants measurably reversing cognitive decline and improving cognitive and neurological function, as seen in his 2014 and 2018 peer-reviewed studies and his 2022 clinical trial. He is a prodigious innovator in medicine, with over thirty patents to his name and over 30 years of research in this field. Much of his findings and research are contained in his 2017 New York Times' Best-Seller, The End of Alzheimer's. Dr. Bredesen continues to push the boundaries of neuroscience and his team continues to improve their modes of treatment for a diagnosis that had no real treatment path just a decade ago. He is a hero to me, my dad and my family and I am grateful for him to be with us today.
