This Works BETTER Than Alzheimer’s Meds [New Discovery]

Let me tell you something that too many good Americans are learning the hard way.

We’re not winning the war on Alzheimer’s – in fact, we seem to me moving in the wrong direction.

For decades, mainstream medicine had absolutely nothing to offer Alzheimer’s patients.

Now, they’re offering them something worse – false hope.

The market is being flooded with Alzheimer’s meds that don’t work – and can cost thousands of dollars a month.

But there may finally be some good news on the horizon.

Because researchers from Johns Hopkins have discovered something that improves Alzheimer’s symptoms better than anything Big Pharma offers.

Even better? No drugs… and no four-figure price tag.

Now, with Alzheimer’s, we’ve always been told that symptoms will only get worse.

But what if that doesn’t have to be true?

In this newest research out of Johns Hopkins, researchers looked at the effects of lifestyle interventions on brain performance in people with early Alzheimer’s or mild cognitive impairment.

They specifically focused on exercise, brain training, healthier diets, social engagement, and reducing stress.

And instead of getting worse, these patients actually registered slight improvements on the ADAS-Cog – the common medical assessment for Alzheimer’s severity.

Now, let me be really clear here – these improvements run circles around anything that the drug companies are offering.

Big Pharma is making a fortune now selling “anti-amyloid” drugs that target amyloid plaques in Alzheimer’s brains.

But those drugs can cost a few thousand dollars a month – and a massive recent meta-analysis from the Cochrane Collaboration (basically the gold standard for this type of research) couldn’t find any evidence that they work.

Like I said, peddling false hope.

I think, too often, the tendency is to give up on Alzheimer’s patients. We focus on protecting them or keeping them comfortable.

Both of those things are important – but this research shows we shouldn’t be throwing in the towel once a loved one is diagnosed.

Focusing on healthy lifestyle changes can lead to some measurable improvements and hopefully delay progression of the disease.

That gives us extra time with the people we love – and there’s nothing more valuable than that.
