PBS special airing at 1;00 sat on NH-PBS nhpbs.org

He tackles dementia/alzheimers and as a wholistic doctor wants us to prevent this; looking at insulin resistance, the effects of high insulin treatments. AND get started 20 years BEFORE the onset of alzheimers.

WE CAN PREVENT THIS.

nitrosamines-- increases shelf life.increases cancer rates. brain cell injury. Look for organic without this chemical.
highest levels of pesticide exposure also has highest levels of dementia.

reduce stress--keep stress low and cortisol low. hypocampus shrinks with high cortisol exposure.

Laughter is good for stress management.

How to manage stress is the key--
