A general decline in the mental capacity that interferes with daily activities is called dementia. Alzheimer’s is a type of dementia that affects behavior, thinking ability, and memory decline. Alzheimer’s accounts for 60-80% of dementia cases.
Common early symptoms of dementia:
- Memory loss
- Altered mood
- Poor concentration level
- Difficulty with familiar daily tasks
- Inability to follow a conversation
- Difficulty finding words
- Confusion about time and place
It is our mission to be able to tell you way ahead of time if you are dealing with inflammation which is the root cause of memory loss.
We provide cutting-edge testing and prevention for those with concerns based on symptoms or family history.
Treatment:
Heavy metals, pesticides, and toxins accumulate in fat cells, including the brain. In general, heavy metals are neurotoxins that disintegrate the neurons’ structure and cause havoc in the brain. Dr. Lalezar highly recommends replacing dental amalgam fillings (in a safe manner) with porcelain or composite. She also recommends coming off high mercury fish such as tuna, king mackerel, sea bass, cod, catfish, orange roughy, and swordfish.
IV DMPS and CaEDTA chelation and high dose IV Glutathione is highly recommended to remove all heavy metals from the body. An infrared sauna is suggested to remove smaller toxins such as pesticides and chemicals.
Taking curcumin, ginkgo Biloba and fish oil and being on an anti-inflammatory and keto diet is essential to improve cognitive function and memory.
