For today’s article review we return to the gatekeeper and controlled opposition Dr. Joseph Mercola, and as such, he will reveal some truths by hiding others, and blatantly lying about the major ones, such as the extreme dangers of long-time exposure to plant foods and toxic carbohydrates.
In this article, from March 23, 2024, Dr. Mercola analyzes “6 Healthy Lifestyle Habits That May Help Slow Memory Decline,” and in turn, I will analyze his half-truths and deceptions, using my 30+ years of professional knowledge and experience within these fields, of which more than 25+ years are from actually working with and helping tens-of-thousands of people with both their physique, performance, and health goals – but mostly, I will use common sense and logic, which you can get from simply studying human physiology and nature.
Dr. Mercola begins his article with the statement that some people notice changes in memory as they get older, that there are certain factors which play a huge role in this, and that you thus can influence the decline by making several active choices and altering your lifestyle. All that is correct. And to add to this, I would say that any kind of decline in memory or mental performance is not natural, it’s the absolutely last thing that will be affected right before you die of old age. As you “wear and tear” while aging, your body will always protect its most valuable asset for as long as possible – and that is your mind, followed by your heart and organs, which keep your ‘mind’ alive.
“The prevalence of memory decline may be increasing. In a 1993 Spanish study of people aged 40 years and over, researchers found the prevalence of memory impairment was 3.6%, and in individuals 65 years and older it was 7.1%. According to the CDC, a more current measurement found that 1 in 10 U.S. adults aged 45 years and older reported having memory loss.”
That is extremely unnatural and worrying, and that was 30 years ago! And now, in the 2020’s they claim that 1 in 10 have memory problems at the young age of 45. That is insane! So, it’s quite clear that memory decline, especially at this young age, does not have anything to do with the natural process of aging, but rather with your environment, as in your lifestyle; as in diet, stress, and exposure to toxins.
“While they are similar in nature, memory decline and dementia are two distinct conditions that affect how the brain functions. However, worsening memory loss is sometimes an early sign of Alzheimer’s disease, which affects an estimated 6 million Americans, 73% of which are 75 years and older.”
Alzheimer and dementia are simply man-made labels put on more extreme cases of memory decline, and they are usually the result of a lack of cholesterol. This can be seen in those poor people being deceived into taking statins and then months later begin to develop memory problems. Cholesterol is the most crucial nutrient for cell- and brain health, as your brain is virtually made of cholesterol. And we’ll get more into this later.
These Six Simple Steps Are Linked to Slower Memory Loss
“A group of researchers from China were seeking to identify the types of lifestyle choices that might protect against memory loss as an individual ages. The researchers gathered participants aged 60 years or older. In total, 29,072 people participated in the study. The researchers followed up with participants over a 10-year period, from 2009 to 2019.
The researchers followed up with the participants four times over 10 years to look for links between memory in participants with normal cognitive function and lifestyle choices.”
While that might sound good, the study also mentioned different “genotypes” that either were excluded or “identified” as an increased cause of memory decline, which of course is complete bullocks, as “genes” and “genotyping” are a theoretical pseudo-science. It’s an excuse to normalize different modern diseases that are caused by plant-based foods and exposure to toxins, as in everyday products, such as drugs/medicines, health supplements, and beauty- and hygiene products – and instead blame them on you being unlucky in the “genetic lottery.” Complete hogwash – but a clever coverup of their toxic slave society and way-of-life they have enslaved and trapped us in.
“The researchers analyzed six modifiable lifestyle factors, which included physical exercise, diet, alcohol, smoking, cognitive activity and social contact.”
Again, as in most of these articles based on “sensational studies,” this is simply common sense. Yes, you need to be somewhat physically active to keep the lymph moving and help the body to detox. Diet is of course the most crucial point of all, and alcohol is a potent poison, and so is smoking, while cognitive activity simply adheres to “use it or lose it,” and social contact will help with stress and depression as we humans are “tribe-oriented” and thus social beings.
I think most people could have picked out these six factors by simply taking a minute to think. Well, at least I hope so for the sake of humanity.
“The researchers began with the statement that “memory continuously declines as people age,” but the rate of that decline may be affected by lifestyle factors. Additionally, forgetfulness in old age may “be reversed or become stable rather than progress to a pathological state.”
Again, wear and tear as you grow old will mostly be noticed as mild muscle loss, loss of skin elasticity (collagen,) decreased bone mass, and so on. Your brain should be the last thing to go, as it’s the most valuable asset you have, and its protected. Remember, you body will do everything it can to survive and to function as best as possible for as long as possible. It will sacrifice a lot before it let go of the most important resource it has for survival, your mind. It’s the same thing as a developing fetus. If the mother consumes nutrient deficient plant garbage, and thus is malnourished, her body will break down to supply the growing baby with nutrients to make sure it develops (as best it can.) And if that is not enough, the baby’s development will prioritize the development of the brain, the nervous system, and then the organs, and lastly the body, which might be thin or underweight as a result of these nutrient deficiencies.
The reason memory decline happens with old age is because most people has been deceived into consuming plant-based slave foods, and especially carbohydrates, all while being polluted by toxins in our environment. It’s NOT a natural progression, it’s a result of malnutrition and toxemia.
After more of the genotyping bullocks, Dr. Mercola actually identify one of the culprits in the “modern diet,” the toxic vegetable/seed oils, and especially Linoleic acid, the polyunsaturated, omega-6 fatty acid, only found in vegetable oils, nuts, and seeds.
“But before moving further, I think we need to address one of the most destructive ingredients in your diet — linoleic acid.
Fats are the primary building block of your cell membranes, which is why it’s important to eat the right type of fat for your health and longevity. Vegetable and seed oils are loaded with polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs), which are chemically unstable, making them highly susceptible to damage by oxygen species that are generated during energy production in the cells.”
Correct. However, Dr. Mercola, as the gatekeeper he is, fails to mention that the right type of fat, the fat that we find in humans, that we are made of, is saturated fat, as in animal fat and cholesterol. He also fails to mention that there is not one single evidence in any literature that humans need mono- or polyunsaturated fats. Actually, we have plenty of evidence of indigenous people and tribes who never touched any kind of vegetable or seed oil, as in mono- or polyunsaturated fats, as they were 100% carnivorous, following our species-appropriate diet of only animal-based foods – only consuming the animal and, on occasion, its raw milk. Personally, I have not touched any plant-based food, and especially not vegetable oils, in over 6 years, not since I went fully carnivore in early 2018 and healed my organs and reversed my cancer and tumors.
And I covered the extreme toxicity and damage of vegetable oils, or more correctly, ‘seed oils’ in my article “Vegetable Oils – most toxic food additive?”
Other Strategies That Can Protect Your Memory and Cognitive Health
“Mushrooms — these fungi contain ergothioneine and glutathione, also known as the “master antioxidant.” Both help protect against age-related diseases like heart disease, cancer and dementia.”
Well, mushrooms contain a lot of toxins, so that is not a good option for glutathione. And, in fact, your body produces glutathione from the amino acids called cysteine, glycine, and glutamic acid. So, all you need to do is making sure you get enough bioavailable protein in your diet, as in meat, fish, eggs and/or some unpasteurized dairy. Also, as you age, your sensitivity to protein and its signaling decreases, so you actually need more protein in your diet. I would recommend a minimum of 1.8 grams per kilogram of ideal bodyweight a day, as in 0,82g per lb. That’s a minimum of 126 grams of protein a day for a 70kg elderly person. Most elderly do not even get half of that.
Also, being in a state of ketosis, as in when relying on fat for fuel, your body increases its production of natural uric acid, the most potent antioxidant there is, which is extremely protective, especially for your brain. So, again, avoid the toxic and damaging carbohydrates!
“Address periodontal disease — Data show that periodontal disease may contribute to the development of Alzheimer’s. The risk of mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease in those with periodontal disease is significantly higher than in those without periodontal disease.”
Avoiding gum disease, as in taking care of your oral health is important. And the most damaging factor to your teeth and gums are carbohydrates and liquids that contain sugars or unnatural added free amino acids or even protein powders (as in sports drinks/supplements) as these stick to the teeth and gum, causing corrosion and unnatural bacteria growth, as the bacteria is trying to break it down for you.
If you use a protein powder to help with your protein intake goals, make sure to brush your teeth afterwards (using a natural toothpaste such as coconut oil, baking soda, and/or mineral salts.)
And as a note, animal protein and fat does not harm the teeth or gums, just the exact opposite. If you only consume meat and animal fats, you do not even have to brush your teeth as your oral health will be excellent. It’s actually possible to heal cavities and regrow damaged gum by adopting our natural species-appropriate diet of strictly animal-based foods.
“Flavonol and choline — Nutrient deficiencies can impact memory function. A large-scale study of flavanol and epicatechin supplementation demonstrated that people with a baseline flavanol deficiency experienced improvements in memory. Choline is another essential nutrient that plays a role in memory, energy and metabolism.”
No, flavonols are a class of flavonoids, which are potent plant defence chemicals, as in being very toxic to humans. They might shut down healing processes and thus lowering symptoms and inflammation from these, but that is extremely bad as you will continue to accumulate damage. They might also interfere with hormone, enzymes and signal substances, fooling gullible scientists who play around in a toxic petri dish that they might have some good properties. Well, they do not.
And for choline, it’s abundant in meat, organ meats, and egg yolks. So again, you should get all you need if your diet is in order and you get the amount of protein you require, as discussed earlier. Simple.
“Avoid statins — Statins are promoted by Big Pharma to help protect against cardiovascular disease, yet they do not. People with early mild cognitive impairment and low to moderate cholesterol levels may more than double their risk of dementia when they use statin medications.”
At least Dr. Mercola mentions this, but I guess he has to as this has been common knowledge for almost 20 years now (unless you’re a Big-Pharma paid and sponsored doctor.) Cholesterol is vital for mental health and for healing. Doing anything to lower or restrict cholesterol will have extremely damaging effects.
“Shed excess body fat — Mounting evidence suggests that maintaining a healthy level of body fat and an increased level of muscle mass can affect your brain health and slow the rate of cognitive aging.”
Sure, but it’s not “being fat” that is the main problem, it’s your lifestyle that made you fat that is the problem. Fat accumulation is the result of overeating, especially carbohydrates and/or vegetable oils, and getting exposed to a lot of toxins, especially toxins from man-made foods and plant-based foods.
I explained all this in my articles, “What Makes You Fat?” and “The Simple Truth About Obesity (It’s Not Genetics).”
The main reason losing fat weight helps is that you remove some of these toxic foods while ‘dieting.’
And that was about it for this article. Not much to take away, really. And Dr. Mercola did not do as badly this time around. Yet, you can clearly see that he is controlled and does not mention the really crucial and important factor, such as the detrimental effects of carbohydrates and any plant-based food on our health, or that of toxicity. He only touched on the toxic poly-unsaturated fats.
If you need help with transitioning from your current way of eating to our natural species-appropriate, species-specific way of eating, I’m available for both coaching and consultation.
