Our Brain is the only organ that can grow younger with age, in fact the more dendrites you can manage to grow, the more enriched and youthful your brain will become.
Despite being a small organ, the human brain demands almost 25% of our nutrient intake.
Neurons are nerve cells that send messages all over your body to allow you to do everything from breathing to talking, eating, walking, and thinking. Until recently, most neuroscientists thought we were born with all the neurons we were ever going to have. We know now that is false. In 1962, scientist Joseph Altman challenged this belief when he saw evidence of neurogenesis (the birth of neurons) in the hippocampus. He later reported that newborn neurons traveled from their birthplace in the hippocampus to other parts of the brain. In 1979, another scientist, Michael Kaplan, confirmed his findings in different study.
Neurons transmit messages from one to another Dendrites are complex tree like roots that branch out from the cell body. Like antennae, dendrites receive and process signals from the axons of other neurons. Neurons can have more than one set of dendrites, known as dendritic trees.
To babies, the whole world is a fascinating place. Every little thing is of interest. Mothers teach their babies new things every day, oftentimes subconsciously. When a baby learns something new, new dendrites grow and spread out. When a baby receives little care or is treated coldly or cruelly, his dendrites stop growing temporarily , and when babies receive no love or care at all, dendrites die. That is how 'normal' babies placed in orphanages who are held for less than a specific amount of time per day, can actually develop mental retardation.
A hostile environmental, both mental and physical can kill dendrites.
The same is true for adult brains. The brain always has to be learning new things, it should always be challenged in order for it to retain its youth. The more dendrites develop and expand, the younger the brain becomes. Wisdom is something that is acquired with age, and is usually only attributed to the elderly.
Before modern times, the elderly were respected. They attained more wisdom and knowledge with age.
So, what is happening now, why are so many of our elderly developing Alzheimer's and Dementia?
Top Causes of Alzheimer's & Demetia
1) Inflammatory foods-
A diet rich in Inflammatory foods can cause mini strokes, lack of blood supply to the brain. Foods like trans fats (found in most processed foods with any type of processed oil), saturated fats (found in animal meats and cheeses), animal proteins (including chicken fish) can clog up our arteries, causing mini strokes and lack of blood supply to the brain & even mini strokes which can cause dementia).
2) High blood sugar levels -
Over time, excessive blood glucose can result in increased fatty deposits or clots in blood vessels. These clots can narrow or block blood vessels in the brain or neck, cutting off the blood supply, stopping oxygen from getting to the brain and causing a stroke. Even mini strokes can cause tremendous brain damage and mental fog which can worsen with time,
3) Antidepressants & medications:
The elderly often suffer from loneliness which leads to depression. But instead of proper solutions such as increased transportation, emphasis on group activities, etc.., Anti-depressants are given out like candy to the elderly by their doctors and in old age homes. I have personally seen a fully functioning, sharp as a whip, elderly women, experience full blown dementia, unable to carry on a conversation, within just months after being placed in an old age home. And why? because the nursing staff didnt like hearing her complaints so they asked the doctor to prescribe antidepressants.
Anti-depressants, specifically SSRIs, are associated with a higher risk of dementia. One study of over 18,000 elderly patients, 4,000 of which were prescribed at least one dose of antidepressants found that antidepressant use was associated with faster cognitive decline, higher risk of severe dementia, all-cause mortality and fractures.

Steps to Protect your Brain
12 STEPS TO PROTECT YOUR BRAIN:
1) Avoid Sugar , Refined Carbohydrates & Processed Foods
2) Keep Blood Sugar levels steady
3) Consume vegetables & fruits (preferably organic especially fruits), try to consume a broad spectrum - these are high in antioxidants needed to support the brain
4) B Vitamins are critical for Brain Support especially as we age- we need the full range, and the best source is from natural foods. Most of the bread today is highly refined and processed, including "organic" breads. You need wholegrain, ancient grain.
5) Reduce or severely limit animal fats, saturated fats, replace with High quality cold pressed Olive Oil or avocadoes. Vitamin E is very good vascular health.
6) reduce heavy metal exposure - limit fish intake , if you must eat fish opt for small fish like sardines or anchovies (they live longer and are smaller which equals less heavy metal accumulation in their fat tissues)
7) Avoid antidepressants
8) Keep your bones strong (to avoid falls) through proper diet . for a really good natural calcium supplement made from Japanese coral click here: CORAL CALCIUM
9) Moderate Daily Exercise- exercise is needed to improve balance and thus avoid falls. We want to avoid falls which can cause head trauma. Falls and hip fractures tend to cause a cascade of events that lead to lack of mobility which leads to cognitive decline. make sure you exercise safely.

11) Vitamin B3 (Niacin) - large doses of B3 is very powerful used to support mental function and to lower bad cholesterol, which keeps arteries clean. Niacin causes a harmless flush when taken in high doses, so start very slow and build up tolerance. I have used Niacin myself, i love the flush. I have given it to my daughter when she was a child to help with ADHD and brain support after she experienced vaccine damage, but i gave her the non-flush version. The non flush version to try is Linodil (Inositol niacinate) or niacinamide. start slow but increase up to 3,000 mg per day in 3 divided doses 1,000mg 3X daily.
12) B12 deficiency can mimic Alzheimer's so try to supplement with that as well. 100mcg to 1000mcg daily
Bonus** Engage in social activities at least twice a week, preferably more. this could include art classes, dance classes, community events, charity events, in-person courses. Social activities prevent depression and loneliness, as well as increasing feelings of wellbeing and personal growth.

"Please share. I really feared for my life at times with my husband’s aggressive behavior but it’s like bricks have been removed from my chest! He’s saying more words, sentences and cussing 70% less which is such a relief as well. .... It’s been like a miracle of great improvements! The other day, I was putting on makeup and he said, “You look beautiful!” I said what, thank you!” I told him I was so happy & proud of him & that God truly blessed us with Joseph’s products! Since he’s been on elixir he’s singing more & whistling while I have music on YouTube on TV. Remembering more songs & things. Family & friends are astonished! Thx so very much Joseph. ...He goes through a bottle every 6 days. Blessed to have your amazing product for Ernie! Brenda Garcia
