Brain inflammation/Brain Degeneration/Brain Health

The picture above clearly illustrates the progression of brain degeneration over time with the inflammation present in red slowly spreading.  Why are we seeing such an increase of Alzheimer’s, dementia and ADHD diagnosis? These causes are both multidimensional and predictable. Chronic brain inflammation is always the culprit of chronic brain degeneration. Whatever the disease label that is applied is not near as important as the cause of brain degeneration. How it develops should be the focus of our attention. A healthy brain should be our goal.

There are several important nutrients that can help reduce brain inflammation and support your brain health with the protection it needs going forward. Let’s review what is most important:

  • First and foremost is Liposomal Curcumin. Curcumin supports the body and the brain’s ability to reduce inflammation. Reduced inflammation in the body over a period of time reduces brain inflammation and this can lead to increased brain health. Curcumin in a liposomal form metabolizes up to 10 times better than standard curcumin.
  • Second is Liposomal Melatonin. Recent research has shown a strong connection between melatonin and brain health. It seems to support the brains’ ability to detox during sleep. Poor brain detoxification can increase the inflammation, which in turn triggers the damage. The liposomal form of melatonin is the preferred form for proper uptake
  • Third is Liposomal Magnesium. This mineral has been well researched and documented in numerous studies to support brain health.
  • Fourth is MCT oil powder from Divine Health which incorporates the healthy fats from coconut oil into an easy creamer for your coffee and tea. See the product for more details. Healthy oils such as coconut, fish and olive oils support brain health by decreasing inflammation and feeding the brain’s need for healthy fat in order to protect itself from inflammatory damage.
  • Fifth is Liposomal Glutathione. This is the strongest antioxidant available in a liposomal form. Antioxidants support and may protect brain cells from damage by scavenging free radicals. Glutathione also supports the brain’s ability to remove heavy metals as well.
  • Sixth Pectasol-C professional modified citrus pectin and galectin 3 inflammatory marker reduction product support.

My book An Integrative Approach to Healing Chronic Illness has an entire chapter devoted to the causes of Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, neurological inflammation, and how you can improve your brain health by reducing brain inflammation and supporting your brain with vital nutrients.
