Amazing Medicines The Drug Companies Don’t Want You to Discover
By University Medical Research Publishers
Memory and Brain function:
“Procaine” drug used in anthethsia – Dr Luth discovered it works by stimulating “dimethylaminianol”.
skin * regulates high blood pressure and heart arrhythmias * sounder sleep * think more clearer * improved circulation
Mix PABA and DMAE and L glutamine - get product called Gero Vita GH3
“Deprenyl” drug used in Parkinson’s disease – blocks an enzyme called MAO Monoamine Oxidase – staunch excess dopamine which transmits nerve impulses.
*muscle coordination *immune system * physical energy * thinking ability * short term memory
MAO allows more dopamine to be produced. Hydergine – improve mental function.
“Alzene” drug for Alzheimer - increases acetylcholine – transmission of nerve impulses
Choline produces more acetylcholine (need large amounts)
“Alzene” is a combination of 2 fatty acids in right combinations plus vit E – Dr Yehuda
discovered these combinations.
Another nutrient used to reverse degenerative brain diseases and is more easily passed through the blood brain barrier ….DMAE (dimethylaaminoethanol)
clears concentration * increased muscle tone * better sleep * better moods *improved memory * higher intelligence
- contained in anchoivies and sardines but would need huge amounts.
DHEA – improves retention and recall.
L-carnitine - stimulates never cells to make proteins, new cell membranes, acetylcholine.
L-glutamine – brain fuel *relieves depression * impotence
* all around energizer *raises scores of mentally retarded children.
EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraaceticacid) is an amino acid – increases
comprehension and memory.
PAC – (proanthocyanidine) – dietary antioxidant *strengthens capillaries * non toxic – (used in Indian culture for centuries) crosses blood brain barriers to protect against free radicals.
Ginko biloba -* anti-aging * widening blood vessels * protectant against free radicals *memory retention and abstract words– use for Alzheimers and circulatory problems.
B1 – protects brain nerves from toxins and aging.
B3 – improves memory (high in acid – taken on full stomach)
B5 – stamina enhancer, antioxidant (large amounts cause diarrhea)
B6 – produce nerve transmitters and mental functions
B12 – aids in absorbing new materials
Dr William Evans Biomarkers- with age B6, B12, and folic acid decreases – need supplementation
Lecithin- 8 gms per day – scored higher on written and oral memory tests.
Always take with B5 and Pantothenic acid. Cells in nerve and brain require high volumes – nerve transmission and neurotransmitters.
DEPRESION

Chapter 12 (pg 157) Lose Weight
Humans develop the ability to store fat in order to survive- fat producing survival mechanism is triggered when we skip meals. Caloric restriction – genes think you are going to die – alter their metabolism to make it very difficult to lose further fat…
Do NOT SKIP breakfast.
Weight loss supplements fall into 2 categories – appetite suppressants and fat burners.
