DMAE

Summary

Elderly people are becoming an ever growing percentage of the population as medical advances extend the human lifespan. As these people age, different aspects of their cognitive function decline as well, but there are supplements like DMAE that are designed to prevent the symptoms of this age-related decline.

DMAE is structurally similar to choline, but has one less methyl group. This creates different properties that are said to improve memory and reduce signs of aging in the brain. While not statistically significant, there is some evidence to suggest DMAE can help treat symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease [1].

DMAE supplements are not well absorbed into the brain and this is one of the reasons most people choose to use centrophenoxine instead.

#2. Consume Foods That Contain Silica

Silica is needed for many functions in the body. It can have anti-aging effects as it helps to reinforce collagen elasticity in body tissues, and prevents arterial plaque from clogging up blood flow. Silica is also an important component for building bone, helps process key nutrients like magnesium and vitamin K2, and is vital for maintaining a strong cardiovascular system. Silica is also an antioxidant. As such, it can be a blood detoxifier.

Most importantly, silica has been found to reduce aluminum levels drastically in the body. It does this by binding with its molecules and extracting them out of brain cells and ultimately out of the body through urine and other means.

Ground-breaking research done by Dr. Exley found that water high in silicic acid (oxygenated silica) had a positive effect on autistic children. Exley has found that aluminum levels were lower in the children by 50 to 70 percent who drank this kind of water.

He then did the same study with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) patients. After 13 weeks of drinking high-silica water, the same results were achieved. In the AD patients, eight out of fifteen no longer showed neurological deterioration and three showed “substantial cognitive increase.”

Dr. Exley used Spritzer (a Malaysian bottled water) for the study, but other waters that
