The messages here apply to you <em>no matter what\u2026<\/em><br \/>\nThere was something poignant that the good doctor said which speaks directly to those of us who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fxnutrition.com\/articles\/helping-alzheimers-patients-with-cognitive-decline-plugging-the-metaphorical-holes-in-the-roof\/\">Helping Alzheimer\u2019s Patients with Cognitive Decline: Plugging the Metaphorical Holes in the Roof<\/a>are interested in taking charge of our own health, even (or maybe especially!) if we are contending with difficult-to-treat conditions.<br \/>\nDr. Bredesen spoke about the mistake the medical community has made with regards to Alzheimer\u2019s treatments.<\/p>\n<h2>The Mistake<\/h2>\n<p>The mistake? It\u2019s trying to target the disease with one single agent.<br \/>\nJust like we now know that the reversal of AIDS requires a \u201ccocktail\u201d therapy, Bredesen said Alzheimer\u2019s requires a similarly many-pronged approach.<br \/>\nThis approach is needed because Alzheimer\u2019s is <strong>multifactorial.<\/strong> It\u2019s a condition that has many underlying causes. And in order for people with this (or any!) condition to reach their healing potential, they need to be treated in a <em>personalized manner with a multi-pronged approach.<\/em><br \/>\nIn other words, we need to take a Functional approach\u2014even (or especially) with conditions such as Alzheimer\u2019s and other mental health challenges.<br \/>\nDr. Bredesen went on to compare Alzheimer\u2019s to having <strong>36 holes in a roof\u2026<\/strong><br \/>\nHang on here, you\u2019re going to <em>love<\/em> this concept, because the 36 holes in the roof scenario means that there are things you can do all day, <em>every day<\/em> to help reverse your risk of Alzheimer\u2019s and any other chronic or degenerative conditions.<br \/>\nYou see, you can\u2019t just plug one hole and expect your problems to resolve. (Imagine the water that would still come pouring in through a physical roof that still had 35 holes!)<br \/>\nInstead, we have to plug multiple holes. As many as possible. With our everyday diet and lifestyle choices.<br \/>\nIn fact, what Bredesen found in his research was that essentially plugging even half the holes can lead to complete reversal of symptoms.<br \/>\n<strong>One hole isn\u2019t enough. Many holes make a difference!<\/strong><br \/>\nIt\u2019s when Dr. Bredesen said this that my ears perked up. Do you know why?<br \/>\n<strong>Because so many of the holes in your particular roof <em>are truly within your power to plug.<\/em><\/strong> With the help of a <a href=\"https:\/\/fxnutrition.com\/counseling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Functional Nutrition practitioner<\/span><\/a> who can uncover the needs of your unique body, you can get back in the driver\u2019s seat of your own health. You can not only reverse your risk of disease, but even reverse conditions that have been plaguing you for years!<\/p>\n<h3>What You Can Do<\/h3>\n<p><em>You<\/em> can make the dietary changes that add the proper nutrients into your diet, transforming your food into medicine.<br \/>\n<em>You<\/em> can alter your bedtime, enabling your body to better detoxify.<br \/>\n<em>You<\/em> can reach out to friends and family and create space in your calendar to connect with those whose company nurtures you.<br \/>\nYou likely have the power to plug many more holes than you realize. And in so doing, you\u2019re building your resilience and increasing your healing potential.<br \/>\nRemember, <em>every<\/em> hole matters, even though no <em>single<\/em> one will do the trick alone.<br \/>\nTogether, with a <a href=\"https:\/\/fxnutrition.com\/counseling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Functional Nutrition practitioner<\/span><\/a> who can guide you, <strong><em>you can become the hero of your own healing journey.<\/em><\/strong><br \/>\nHow cool is that?<br \/>\nWhat\u2019s one thing you can do today to plug a few holes in the leaky roof that may be putting you in unnecessary risk?<\/p>\n<p><em>Reference<\/em><br \/>\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bredesen, D.
