Fourth Anniversary of Steve's Ketone Rebirth (May 21, 2012)
Yesterday, May 21, 2012, was the fourth anniversary of the day Steve started taking coconut oil to provide ketones as an alternative fuel to glucose for his brain, with very positive results. He is now 62 years old and in his eleventh years of symptoms related to early onset Alzheimer's disease. Much has happened in these four years, both setbacks and recoveries. Fortunately, we are in a recovery phase. We have surprises all of the time that lead me to believe that everything he was is still in there, but he has a problem getting access to it.
I will post a point by point update in the near future.
In the meantime, here is a little bit of my funny old Steve coming out to visit yesterday:

Hi Mary,
I am a physician (non-neurologist) with a similar personal interest in Alzheimer's dementia. I would like to exchange ideas with you. Would you please email me at raw-@swbell.net
Best Regards,
Ron

The Univ. of Calif, Berkeley
Wellness Ltr. reviewed your book
in their Jun 2012 issue. They were
highly skeptical of effectiveness
of coconut oil or MCT oil as a
treatment for AD. That Steve's periods of stability and improvement were typical of AD's
long term decline. Use coconut oil
occasionally, stick to canola, olive, etc. Pls, what is your response to this article. Since I
have several first degree relatives
with frontotemporal dementia or Parkinson's I continue to follow
your recommendations as a preventative. Thank you for your
book. Cam

How wonderful coconut oil really is...and how wonderful that Steve is doing wonderfully.
What great spirit, and great soul.
May you have much more special moments.
To you Mary, for your strength and dedication...and the loving kindness that is in you...and to your Steve, may his heart shine bright...and make you laugh, continuously.
With best wishes, best of health and may your heart keep believing in good things to come.
DR
ps - love that funniness Steve! Keep it up! :)

To Cam,
The whole point of my book is to bring it to the attention of the public since that the biochemistry makes sense, my husband and other have responded and therefore clinical trials need to be done both with the medium chain triglycerides and with the ketone ester. Their point is this needs clinical trials...duh!! I doubt that many other people with Alzheimer's, prior to my husband's experience, have improved by 6 points on the ADAS-Cog and by 14 points on the Activities of Daily Living test over a year.
I doubt they read the whole book before reviewing it.

Dr. Mary!
I am happy that things are doing well for Steve!
I do take coconut oil daily and i also encouraged my grandma who is suffering a bit of memory loss/brain fog to take it. She improved a lot and she became livelier and in a good mood
I am here in the Philippines and coco oil is nothing special so my relatives are a bit skeptical of its effects.
Anyway, the one who reviewed your book is really having a hard time swallowing the fact that a product simple as coco oil can be better than all the hi tech medicines produced by pharmaceutical companies

Hi Mary: I recently came across a press release from the Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, LA. They are currently raising funds to expand their Institute for Dementia Research & Prevention. I emailed the contact to ask if the Institute plans on conducting any studies related to coconut oil and dementia. Have you tried to contact this Center? Liz O.

Dr Mary,
Awhile back my brother brought your idea to the family. I recently saw that you wrote a book and was the first to be able to crack the book from my community library!
I will be trying the oil with my father who is in a care home due to a broken hip and elderly mother who cannot care for him at home. He has gone down hill rapidly in the last 2 months as you described Steve doing-lack of energy, depressed, giving up, not interested in food, yet was the happy outgoing guy everyone in the care home loved to be around prior to that and independent. He too loved to tinker and figure things out. Even in the home, he was a great problem solver and figured several solutions that got him into trouble-(like taking off his pajama top would disconnect him from the bed alarm so he could get out of bed and go to the bathroom on his own. Unfortunately, he wasn't stable enough to walk and would forget to use the walker.)
We are currently trying to get him moved to a facility that is closer to his kids so we can implement some approaches like the coconut oil the current Dr will not try.
My current challenge will be to convince the nurses (from a distance) to give him the cookies twice daily that will have coconut oil in them. He has lost alot of weight and losing more recently.
I have posted your web links and blog on 20 Facebook Alzheimer pages (mostly Canadian) and on my own page and asked people with family members with Alzheimer's to repost to their own Facebook page in hopes the word gets out to help a few more people.
Love your podcasts etc. Keep up the good work and know that you ARE helping many people out there with an accessible, simple and affordable solution.
I wonder if you might want to contact the various natural, holistic, alternative and related type magazine for articles and organizations. Naturpaths might be another group to contact.
I plan to write about my own experience with my dad in local magazines if we get ANY improvement at all.
Thank you for all you have done and sharing your experience.

My father was diagnosed with Alzheimers a year ago. Once we had a diagnosis I pored a lot of time into reading about this disease. When I came across your book I thought 'why not, the biology makes sense'. After a day of mct and coconut oil my father said lt like he had woken up, that had been in a daydream type fog for two years. He's started tending to his garden again, he's out playing golf and his speech is clear without grasping for words. Thank you very much for bringing this to the attention of the public. I hope this extends his life long enough for a cure or stabilizing treatment to be found.

Hi,
My grandmother has diabetes type 2, hypothyroid (possible Hashimotos) and dementia. It seems very much like Alzheimer's, which her husband died of (and diabetes also), and because she stopped taking Aricept, the dementia is getting quite severe.
How much coconut oil daily should my aunt give her? How many doses would you recommend? My grandmother is 90 yrs old and has a healthy weight for her age, good appetite, and is on medications for her thyroid and diabetes.

Herpes Finally Gone, thanks to Dr. Utu for his Herbal Treatment.
I had a sudden onset of cold sores and a new one was appearing each day. I was on primary immunosuppressant I noticed my body just can't fight the virus on its own. After five days of treatment and no success I suspected herpes I went for test and it was confirmed. God was my strength I met a doctor for treatment. He gave me Dr Utu's contact. I contacted him immediately, This medication was far amazing that within 24-48 hrs the blisters were crusting over. The swelling and redness was decreasing as well. I was on four weeks herpes medication which I completed before going for test. I went for herpes test and then again back to my doctor who confirmed me herpes negative it was really like a dream. What a relief! Feel Free to contact Dr Utu Email:- drutuherbalcure@gmail.com OR WhatsApp :- +2347032718477
