If anyone wants to take a ‘whack’ on gum disease...just get a water-pick and do up a 20-percent solution of Listerine to water...at least once or twice a week.
This sounds like a huge deal.
eat right (not a lot of sugar or processed foods) clean your teeth regularly floss. easy as that
FWIW, I was told by a friend years ago that aluminum causes Alzheimers ... when I heard that I threw out every aluminum pot, pan, and utensil I had and switched from canned to bottled beer
I’ve still got pretty good memory, just saying
Coconut oil specifically targets mouth bacteria. Google “coconut oil dementia cure”
‘If I found my mind slipping like that, I’d just find a quiet corner that could be easily cleaned up and have done with it. -_- “
My luck I would forget where the bullets are.
Wow, it's a bad one. It's also implicated in heart disease, stroke and rheumatoid arthritus. Wouldn't it be amazing if we could rid humanity of all these diseases at once? Nah, too good to be true.
About every 2 years we get news of a cure for Alzheimers, a disease that 50% of the country cannot pronounce properly.

How to renew your body: Fasting and autophagy
https://www.dietdoctor.com/renew-body-fasting-autophagy
On October 3rd, the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine to Yoshinori Ohsumi for his discoveries of mechanisms for autophagy.
But what is autophagy? The word derives from the Greek auto (self) and phagein (to eat). So the word literally means to eat oneself. Essentially, this is the body’s mechanism of getting rid of all the broken down, old cell machinery (organelles, proteins and cell membranes) when there’s no longer enough energy to sustain it. It is a regulated, orderly process to degrade and recycle cellular components.
[snip]
The consequences of accumulating old junky proteins all over the place can be seen in two main conditions – Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) and cancer. Alzheimer’s Disease involves the accumulation of abnormal protein – either amyloid beta or Tau protein which gums up the brain system. It would make sense that a process like autophagy that has the ability to clear out old protein could prevent the development of AD.
““When science converges from multiple independent laboratories like this, it is very compelling”
Where have we heard that story before?
I think it has everything to do with putting up with liberals
I hope I can remember I bumped this for later.
I told my dentist to stop fixing my teeth and pull them out as they start hurting. No teeth, no gum disease. I like potted meat and applesauce.
Your thoughts on this?
About five years ago, a former co-workers in the company I worked for told me he could remember events from three or five years ago but couldn’t recall events from three weeks ago.
I called him a year later and found his wife on the cell phone line. She told me her now-ex husband had been checked into a nursing home (at age 55.)
She said she divorced him to secure state assistance and to protect what little money they had for their kids education.
He’s gone now...
Alrighty then. Debunking 101:
Look up the history of oral hygiene in the US, particularly dentistry.
If this were remotely accurate in hypothesis, those who reached their senior years a century or 2 (or 3 or more) ago would all have been afflicted. “Senior” back then being 50 or 60, with correspondingly-horrible oral health. Dementia should have been eradicated with the evolution of oral hygiene in the 20th century.
Not.
It’s just another “miracle cure”...some researcher pining for grants. More BS.
Wow! This is big!!!!
Dental floss is your friend.
Hubby was told by dentist next time he came in they would inject antibiotic into his gums to try to stop gum disease. I did a bit a research and found a couple alternative solutions that have worked. No injection needed when returned in three months.
Baking Soda dental rinse: 2 t. baking soda to 1 qt. water
Have it in a plastic pitcher on the bathroom sink. After brushing teeth, just rinse! It only impedes the development of bad bacteria, not the good. Listerine kills everything.
Weleda Natural Salt toothpaste
It isn’t your foamy, sweet tasting Colgate or Crest, but it does really clean teeth and also combats gum disease
Huge if true.
