Getting old sucks. Especially for your brain.
Here are 6 tools to help keep you sharp, your brain young and cognitive decline away:
Here are 6 tools to help keep you sharp, your brain young and cognitive decline away:

1. CREATINE
Creatine is therapeutic for cognitive decline.
Those who accumulate the notorious Tau and Beta Amyloid proteins in the brain have impaired creatine metabolism,
but supplying creatine back combats this, protecting neurons and reducing protein accumulation.

Creatine works by serving as an energy producing substrate.
This extra energy is why it helps you in the gym - but in the brain, this:
‣ Supports brain cell growth
‣ Coordinates neurotransmitter release
‣ Supports neuron communication
‣ Improves cognitive performance

Creatine monohydrate can be taken at 5-10g daily.
Creatine is also in animal meats - steak, chicken, etc.

2. METHYLENE BLUE
◎ Improves mitochondrial function
◎ Amyloid plaque inhibitor (pictured)
◎ Tau aggregate inhibitor (ubiquitous in Alzheimer's)
◎ Restores dopamine output
◎ Antioxidant
Has obvious cognitive benefits, one of my favorites.

In fact, a patented version of methylene blue is being used by pharmaceutical companies to treat Alzheimer's.
Showing benefit from 4-16 mg/day.

3. COCONUT OIL
Coconut oil reverses brain damage from Alzheimer's plaque.
⬩Improves cell survival
⬩Retains mitochondrial structure, function
⬩Has antioxidant properties
⬩Reduces neuroinflammation
In neurons exposed to the amyloid plaque.

Coconut oil for neurogenesis.
A recent study showed that not only did coconut oil improve insulin resistance,
it increased the levels of BDNF, the primary protein responsible for repairing and growing brain cells.

Coconut oil has also been used in cognitive decline in human studies with some good success.

4. VITAMIN E
Vitamin E is the body's principle antioxidant against lipid peroxidation, a process that can damage various brain regions.
Aluminum or other heavy metals, for example, cause lipid peroxidation and cognitive decline.
Vitamin E prevents it.

Vitamin E prevents Alzheimer's disease.
Dementia patients given 2,000 IU / d of vitamin E improved cognition + slowed disease progression.
The brain is mostly fat, when that fat breaks down (lipid peroxidation), so does your cognitive ability.
Vitamin E is the way to stop it.

This is the vitamin E we use personally and with clients. 400 IU is a solid start. healthnatura.com/whole-e-1oz/?r…

5. PREGNENOLONE / DHEA
☆ Supports microtubles - a structural protein of brain cells
☆ Increases BDNF - a protein critical for brain cell growth / maturation
☆ Supports myelination - protective coating around neurons
☆ Improves mitochondrial function
☆ Anti-inflammatory

DHEA reverses aging in the brain.
• Upregulates neuron growth factors
• Stimulates growth of microtubules
• Antidepressant
• Supports neurotransmitter production
DHEA declines as we age and has a myriad of youth promoting functions.
Adding it back turns back the clock.

Pregnenolone metabolizes into DHEA, and much higher doses are needed for benefit.
100-500 mg would be a start. healthnatura.com/pregnenolone-2…

DHEA dosing is definitely lower and can more easily be overdone.
Starting at around 5 mg seems reasonable. healthnatura.com/dhea-oil-1-oz/…

6. RED LIGHT THERAPY
➢ Improves mitochondrial function
➢ Increases BDNF
➢ Anti-inflammatory
➢ Reduces oxidative stress

Red light has recently been shown to benefit cognitive decline.
↦ Improved cognitive scores
↦ Increased serum BDNF
The specific red light wavelengths activate the mitochondria, allowing more efficient energy production.
Plus they wore these cool looking helmets.

These tools are a great place to start, but a more holistic and individualized approach would be optimal.
