My mom has Alzheimer’s and I am her caregiver. She craves pure sugar like nobody’s business. She will sneak to find anything that smacks of sweet. We have to hide the grain products and even the fruit. It’s insane. She also will eat just about anything. But she just goes nuts over sweets. It’s really tough.

I’m sorry to hear about your mother’s condition, but can I ask what is the problem with giving her sweets?

Have you mother checked for candida. Might solve a lot of the problems, maybe even the Alz.

Caprylic acid and undecylenic acid in addition to limiting sugars can take care of candida.

Probiotics also need to be taken to repopulate the gut and control the candida growth.
Saccharomyces boulardii https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3296087/ added to the standard acidophyllis strains normally available in store bought brands.

(Stay away from webmd.com and similar pharma and allopathic med establishment websites for real information on supplementation or natural remedies. They’re like the NYT, Wapo, CNN, etc, of the medical establishment. Can say nothing good unless it’s big pharma and AMA endorsed.)
