CSADD and more - Pt 3
Low Dose Methylene Blue. Low dose methylene blue also acts on the tau protein. But it has also been shown to increase mental activity and reduce mental tiredness. Studies have shown it to be effective for memory improvrment even at low doses. Here is a link to one study: es_brain_oxidative_metabolism_and_memory_retention_in_ratshttp://www.biomedexperts.com/Abstract.bme/14724055/Methylene_blue_improv Together the findings suggest that low-dose MB enhances spatial memory retention in normal rats by increasing brain cytochrome c oxidase activity. And: Extinction Memory Improvement by the Metabolic Enhancer Methylene Blue http://learnmem.cshlp.org/content/11/5/633.full: Right now I dilute methylene blue to 0.1% and take two drops in the morning and two drops in the evening. That dosage is derived from a study done by researchers at Children's Hospital Research Center Oakland. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/08/080818101335.htm And from other sources. A company is trying to patent methylene blue as an Alzheimer's drug and their testing uses much larger doses, 65 mg three times daily: Rember for Alzheimer's: Methylene Blue's Comeback http://pipeline.corante.com/archives/2008/07/31/rember_for_alzheimers_methylene_blues_comeback.php I don't know of anyone trying to treat Alzheimer's with the lower dosage but it may work and should at least act as a preventative. If you read the comments to the Rember link I provided, commenter 44 says: 44. jtwiz7 on August 31, 2008 7:40 AM writes...After Dorothy and Denise's comments, I discussed it with wife and after ten days,there's a new person in our house. I am corresponding with him currently. His wife has Alzheimer's and the MB is helping her greatly. She was using 150 mg twice a day and has changed to 65 mg thrice daily. For those interested in Kentucky lore here is an interesting Kentucky story involving methylene blue: THE BLUE PEOPLE OF TROUBLESOME CREEK http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kyperry3/Blue_Fugates_Troublesome_Creek.htm/ Virgin Coconut Oil. Virgin coconut oil has many benefits in addition to helping with Alzheimer’s. I don’t have a study to reference here but here is a link to a testimonial:Doctor says an oil lessened Alzheimer's effects on her husband http://www.tampabay.com/news/aging/article879333.ece A quality coconut oil tastes delicious in my opinion and is worth including in my opinion. A coconuttery/buttery spread can be made by mixing half butter with half coconut oil or the oil can be used in cooking.

Low Dose Naltrexone has been used to treat Alzheimer's with some success. Many people take it for prevention of any auto immune or degenerative disease, Cancer, Flu, Colds, Allergies. Among other effects it raises endorphin and enkephaline levels up to 300%. This balances the immune system. Some people have low endorphin levels and are thought to be more susceptible to Cancer and other diseases as well as depression. It's a very inexpensive drug, and tested safe at 10X the dosage used in low dose therapy. Many order it from www.alldaychemist.com without an Rx.

RE: CSADD and more - Pt 3
Being the hormone gal that I am, I'll put in my 2 cents as well! ADD/ADHD is typically (from a hormone standpoint) from low cortisol (can also be known as adrenal fatigue). I have an adpoted son with ADHD and a birthded son that seems to have ADHD at times. I had both of their cortisol levels tested and they both had only 1 or 2 detectibe levels, and those were at the bottom of the range, well below 'normal'. Most of the supplements that have been suggested are adrenal and thyroid supportive, and I take a lot of them myself! It just takes a long time for the body to straighten itself out via supplements. That's why I take the hormone itself that I am deficient in. Most 'autoimmune' diseases have a pathogen as a cause. Be it fungal, bacterial, viral or whatever. I found a video that explains it really well... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTiWfyrNBwA It talks about Lyme disease in the video, but I feel since Lyme is a bacteria, that it applies to at least other bacteria, if not all other 'critters'. All stress on the body (be it illness of any kind, horrible job or marriage, weddings, babies, infection, autoimmune disease) is dealt with the same way. Ultimately it is cortisol that is disrupted, either in producing too much or too little. Too much in the beginning, then after being too stressed, it produces too little. http://www.drlam.com/articles/adrenal_fatigue.asp This site explains this process very well. LDN is fantastic for helping the body reboot the immune system/response and get those hormones in order. But I do think directly addressing the hormone deficiencies by taking the missing hormones is the fastest/easiest way to get back on track. That coupled with LDN will give a 1-2 punch. Also, if there is any pathogen involved, using your choice of natural or allopathic antibiotics/antivirals/antiparasitics/etc. will also help. That's just my 2 cents!
