Vascular Dementia: is a general term describing problems with reasoning, planning, judgment, memory and other thought processes caused by brain damage from impaired blood flow to the brain.

Overview

Vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s are often confused because of similar overlapping symptoms, but they are NOT the same.

For example, one of THE DEFINING characteristics of Alzheimer’s are “tangles” in the brain composed of beta-amyloid plaques.

Plaques are the product of inflammation and poor blood circulation to the brain ALONG WITH elevated blood sugar levels which result in “varnished” [glazed-over] brain receptors which are supposed to regulate pancreatic production of insulin based on circulating levels of the regulatory hormone, leptin.

Excess accumulation of FERRITIN IRON plays an important role in brain dysfunction [think inflammation and electrical short-circuiting of brain tissue/neurons]. To learn more, see Special Insights, How Iron Toxicity Affects Your Health by clicking the ARCHIVE TAB below.

Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, dimentia: are chronic, neurological, degenerative disorders of UNKNOWN origin [according to medical folklore.]

More…

Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and vascular dementia: like most everything in the medical arena, have been presented to the public as diseases based on their progressive nature while completely ignoring the factors behind their development and the forces directing them.

These disorders are common and predictable because they are the products of diet and lifestyle and directly related to leptin, insulin and adrenaline resistance.

In addition, accumulation of ferritin iron in the brain eventually short circuits neurons, and when accompanied by loss of brain mass, tangles and holes in brain tissue [FOR LACK OF CHOLESTEROL] PRIMARILY DO TO USE OF STATIN DRUGS and fat/cholesterol deficient diets].

In other words, degenerative brain disorders don’t happen because of DNA and gene factors, rather because of self-inflicted neglect and abuse.

Another factor is emergence of mycotoxin dominance by infestation by fungal yeast.  See Mold & Fungus Protocol.

Cognitive disorders should be thought of and viewed in terms of pre-diabetes and diabetes driven by elevated GLYCATED blood sugar [think: A1c] of the brain which leads to type 3 diabetes.
