Grandma, My Name Is Becky.
Mothers! Talk to your Children about Alzheimer’s
disease.
Imagine listening to your five year old child crying to your mother:
“Grandma, my name is Becky”. Today, memory
problems are becoming an all too frequent
reality. Diminished cogitation, dementia, and
Alzheimer’s disease are an epidemic effecting
hundreds of millions of people worldwide.
Everyone knows someone close to them with
memory problems.
Would you believe that science has made major breakthroughs in the
understanding of Alzheimer’s disease? Would you believe that the disease is
totally preventable? Well, it’s true. This article will give you the tools and
understanding to begin to prevent this mind destroying infection today. Our
children can look forward to a lifetime of a perfectly functioning brain. For older
persons, you can change a few things in your everyday habits to begin to stop the
progress of memory loss and begin to improve it. Unfortunately, when full blown
Alzheimer’s disease exists, there is no way to reverse it with present technology.
So intercepting it and preventing it is our only hope to
eliminate it for future generations.
Mothers! You are the key “care giver” responsible for
teaching your children and family members the principles
that are paramount for eliminating memory problems for
those you love. You are the one who determines the menu
for the nourishing of your family. You are the one, for the
most part, who teaches your children habits that will be repeated throughout
your child’s lifetime. Good habits equal a long and healthy life with excellent
memory. Poor eating habits lead to poor health, chronic disease and diminished
memory later in life.
Understanding the basic cause and then taking what causes chronic disease
seriously can result in the elimination of this devastating disease in only one
generation. Making the suggested changes in an serious fashion, as if your child’s
life is at stake, is what is needed to make the life style changes that are necessary
to eliminate the chronic infection that causes Alzheimer’s disease. It is an
everyday education of your children in the type of foods that strengthen the
immune system. It is avoiding the diets child love, namely produces with sugar,
refined carbohydrates, and corn syrup loaded with empty calories.
Poison masked with sweetness deceives us as something good. However,
the long-term health results of a diet of sugar, corn syrup, and refined
carbohydrates lead to both poor health and a pitiable immune system.
Mothers you need to start early
and begin reprograming the children’s
minds to think of sweets as poison
worse than cocaine and other mind
altering drugs. More people die from
sugary diets by far than from illicit
drugs. You must educating your
children to not listen to the money
making candy industry commercials on
TV that are only out to make a profit and not interested in the health of your
child. Reprogram your children to think of TV candy hawkers as liars. Part of the
answer to a robust immune system is avoiding “sweets”.
The secrets of a long healthy live will be revealed in this article. It’s simple,
not complicated. Only you, Mothers, can take control of your health and
ultimately your family’s health.
Before all the secrets can be revealed, one must understand the dental
disease that results in decayed teeth, abscessed teeth, “gum” disease and
extracted teeth. Simply stated, it is an imbalance of bacteria in your mouth. The
“bad” bacteria overpopulate and overwhelm the “good” bacteria. This happens
because of three changes in our environment and eating habits. A “perfect storm”
has occurred in the last one to two hundred years. These changes represent
“three legs of a stool.” Cut off the legs and the stool will collapse. We will tell you
how to knock out all three legs and eliminate dental disease as well as prevent
and even, reverse chronic inflammatory autoimmune diseases. Alzheimer’s
disease is one of these autoimmune diseases.
For young people, you can look forward to never having a cavity or “gum”
disease; no painful dental procedures or uncomfortable dental cleanings. For
older people, new cavities can be drastically reduced and “gum” disease can be
stopped. Unfortunately, for older people with many crowns, missing teeth and
fillings dentistry will still be a reality to repair previous dental work and replace
teeth already missing in your mouth. In both cases, bleeding “gums” and painful
“bloody cleanings” will be a thing of the past.
“Three Legs of a Stool”
First Leg: Spread of Disease Worldwide — The 500-600 bacteria in our mouths
are, for the most part, the same worldwide. However, research has shown that
the particular strains of
these bacteria have
changed since Homo
sapiens initially migrated
from Africa to all parts of
the world thousands of years ago. We became isolated from each other for
millenniums in our home lands scattered around the earth. As long as we “stayed
put” and remained segregated from each other and did not travel far from our
isolated communities, we became immune to our own strains of bacteria. Once
“trains, planes, and automobiles” arrived and travel was dramatically increased,
all the changed strains of previously harmless bacteria now had access to distant
populations where immunity did not excess. Oral bacteria are extremely
contagious and spread quickly once introduced into new distant populations.
Today the strains are distributed everywhere worldwide.
Second Leg: Sterilization of our environment, food and cooking methods — In
this modern age, we sterilize everything from counter tops that we wash with
antiseptics, our hands, and irradiated food imported from over-seas. The
sterilization eliminates not only “bad”
bacteria in our diet, but “good”
bacteria, as well. Our gut needs
“good” bacteria to control the over
population of “bad” bacteria. That is
why we hear so much today about
the benefits of taking probiotics to
re-populate our guts with “good”
bacteria.
Third Leg: Dramatic Change in Our Diets — In the last one to two hundred years
there has been a dramatic
increase in the consumption of
refined sugar, carbohydrates and
corn syrup. This has negatively
affected our consumption of
nutritious foods with needed
micro-nutriments our immune
system needs for robust
resistance and invulnerability to
disease. The calories gained from
these “junk” foods are empty and of no use for a healthy body. Plus, they are a
great part of the cause of the current epidemic of obesity prevalent in the
industrialized world. These same foods allows the over population of “bad”
bacteria that cause chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease.
What’s the Problem?
Millions of dollars spent on medical research for many years is paying off.
Dental disease, both abscessed teeth and “gum” disease, are directly related to
most diseases of modern man, such as Alzheimer’s disease, as well as, periodontal
disease, heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, and a very long list of
other chronic inflammatory auto-immune diseases. According to the World
Health Organization, these chronic diseases have become a worldwide epidemic.
Unfortunately, it requires many years for the understanding of these
diseases learned about from research to “filter-down” and be accepted by the
clinical dentists and physicians who diagnose and treat chronic disease. The vast
majority of clinicians have no idea that certain “bad” bacteria called oral
spirochetes are the most dangerous bacteria that overpopulates the “gum” in the
mouth and is thought to be the instigator of chronic inflammatory autoimmune
disease. Physicians, as a group, do not seem to know that spirochetes are the
problematic organisms in periodontal disease. They know of other spirochetes
diseases, such as Syphilis and Lyme disease, but do not know that spirochetes are
the predominate organism in “gum” periodontal disease. If they did know, they
would not have patronized them for decades as the dentists have done.
Physicians know that spirochete diseases are all bad.
The Relationship between Dental and Systemic Disease
The relationship between dental and heart
disease has been reported in scientific literature and
national news for several years. However, the
periodontal specialists and dental profession in general
for many years until just recently, refused to
acknowledge that periodontal disease is the root cause
of chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. As a
matter of fact for the first time since this relationship became known many
years ago, in May 2013, the periodontal specialty organizations in both the
United States and Europe admitted and are publishing articles in their
professional journals that there is a strong relationship between periodontal
disease and heart disease, Diabetes, and other autoimmune diseases, such as
Alzheimer’s disease. This concept is now “main stream” in medicine, and it is
about time.
The relationship between periodontal disease and cognitive ability has only
recently surfaced from university studies. A study done in West Virginia showed
that patients among community-dwelling older adults have diminished health, as
well as decreased cognitive ability. Tooth loss and tooth decay was studied in very
old Swedish people. The conclusions surmised that an association between the
cognitive and functional status of these individuals and aspects of oral health
were correlated. Further studies were recommended to better determine the oral
health status of these individual leading to the deterioration of overall health in
older adults. A London study showed that there is a correction between poor oral
health and worse cognitive function throughout adult life. Crout, in a report to
the WVU Health News Letter reported finding that “keeping the mouth free of
infection could cut down on cases of dementia.”
A Japanese group headed by Okamoto, investigated a very large grouping
of elderly population in a cross-sectional study in the relationship between the
number of remaining teeth (a proxy to periodontal disease) to mild memory
impairment, which is a preclinical stage of dementia, and to cognitive impairment.
The subjects were aged 65 years or older and were grouped according to their
score for the Mini-Mental State Examination three-word delayed recall test to
test memory impairment. They collected data on the number of remaining teeth,
the number of years these people were missing their teeth, health-related
lifestyle, medical history, blood pressure, height, and body weight.
The results reported include: The test was adjusted for depressive
symptoms, age, sex, length of education, and other explanatory variables. The
results revealed a significant relationship between the length of the tooth loss
period and the risk of a low Mini-Mental State Examination test score which
strongly suggest that tooth loss is associated with memory loss.
Judith Miklossy, a Swiss researcher,
published the most authoritative paper to date on
the subject. It categorically states that oral
spirochetes, as well as the spirochetes that cause
Lyme disease and syphilis, all cause dementia and
Alzheimer’s disease.
She reports that the “accumulated knowledge, the
various views, and hypotheses proposed to explain
the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease form
together a comprehensive entity when observed in
the light of a persisting chronic inflammation and
amyloid deposition initiated and sustained by
chronic spirochetal infection. As suggested by Hill,
once the probability of a causal relationship is established prompt action is
needed. Similarly to Syphilis, one may prevent and eradicate dementia in
Alzheimer’s disease. The impact on healthcare costs and on the suffering of the
patients would be substantial.”
An understanding of, or probable
theories of cognitive disorders have been
veiled in mystery. However, a mounting
body of evidence points to a viable
prevention of mental disorders if oral
health is maintained in healthy individuals
and periodontal disease is intercepted and
treated in periodontal diseased individuals.
Also, understanding the cause can lead to
curing this devastating disease.
A specific dental bacterium in concert
with other bacteria which cause gum
disease (periodontal disease) is now implicated in causing Alzheimer’s disease.
Recent findings directly implicate the specific “cork-screw-oral-bugs” specifically,
oral spirochete, (a very close cousin to the same “bugs” that cause syphilis and
Lyme disease) to the production of amyloid which clogs up the brain in disorders,
such as, diminished memory, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease. These bacteria
can gain access to the blood through diseased “bleeding gums” and cause major
problems resulting in diseases in “body organs” far away from the mouth. The life
cycle of these nasty bugs are so sneaky that it has taken more than one hundred
years to unravel the puzzle.
How do Harmful Spirochetes get Into the Body to Cause Disease?
First of all, it is important to realize how dirty the mouth really is. DNA
analyses of the “bugs-in-the-mouth” reveal over five hundred different species of
bacteria. When you analyze the entire DNA in the human body, only 20% is
actually human. The other 80% DNA represents bacteria, virus, and fungus. Our
bodies are actually a “microbial garden” and needs to be carefully attended to be
healthy.
Of the 500+ bacteria in the mouth, some are very bad, especially
spirochetes. Recent studies have even shown that the dangerous spirochete that
causes Syphilis is also present in the mouth when analyzing normal saliva. These
bacteria are harmless when in small numbers. Normally the “good” bacteria
greatly out number and inhibit the actions of the “bad” bacteria. When the
stability of “good” and “bad” get out of balance, problems occur.
The gingival sulcus (the trough or valley around the
teeth that seals the “gums” to the roots of the teeth) is an
amazing apparatus. It is designed to allow teeth to be
attached to the jaw bone “inside the body” and seals the
tooth as it exits through the “gums” into the mouth. When
healthy, no bacteria, virus or any other organism can break
through this protective barrier and get into the blood. When
diseased, the “bad” bacteria dramatically outnumber the
“good” bacteria. The “gums” breaks down forming a nasty bleeding open wound.
This foul smelling pus-forming wound becomes an open doorway for “bad bugs,”
especially spirochetes, to pass into the blood and cause an ever growing list of life
threatening sicknesses.
How Spirochetes Spread Around the World
The most commonly known and most understood of all the spirochetal diseases is
syphilis. The “Columbian Exchange Theory” holds that syphilis was a New World
disease brought back to Europe by Columbus and Martin Alonso Pinzón. It is likely
that a highly contagious ancestral species of the bacteria moved with our early
human ancestors when they came from Europe across the land bridge of the
Bering Straits into the Americas many thousands of years ago, without dying out
in the original source population. Over the thousands of years since the
spirochete migrated inside the bodies of our early descendants, it changed
dramatically. Evidence links crewmen of Columbus’s ocean voyages to the Naples
syphilis outbreak of 1494. Even though the bacteria, called Treponema pallidum,
were the same genus, its strains were very different and caused a severe disease
epidemic in the population of Europe. The same can be said for Lyme disease
(caused by a close cousin to Syphilis) and oral spirochetes.
How do Spirochetes Gain Access into the Body
Spirochetes have different physical forms, some of which have been known
for at least one hundred years. Without getting into too much detail since this
information is documented elsewhere (see references), the forms are, simply
stated: granular forms, “cell-wall deficient” forms, and cyst forms. You can think
of them as “spore-like” forms and these forms allow easy spread from one
individual to another by intimate contact, contaminated food, and aerosol. It is
easy to catch, but hard to exterminate once passed into a new host. This article
will explain how to protect you from these “nasty” spirochetes.
Bio-Film and Difficulty in Killing Spirochetes in the Mouth: Spirochetes
produce a very protective biofilm. In the mouth this biofilm is called dental plaque
(the sticky white substance that coats the teeth). In “gum” disease, the gingival
sulcus (valley between the “gum” and teeth), gets deeper and collects plaque.
Dentists now use microscopes to take samples of this plaque to diagnosis the
severity of “gum” disease. Recent studies done to kill bacteria before performing
a dental cleaning have shed light on how protective this oral biofilm (dental
plaque) actually is to protect the bacteria living with it. The studies took patients
with “gum” disease who had large number of spirochetes within the biofilm
plaque. Several strong chemicals [ozone, chlorhexidine, diluted bleach, colloidal
silver and Betadine [iodine]) were carefully introduced into the gingival sulcus
with a small blunt delivery cannula. The chemical was allowed to remain within
the sulcus for two minutes. The very disturbing results were that these chemicals
were not able to penetrate and completely sterilize the gingival sulcus.
Spirochetes were always found in the microscopic examination after the chemical
treatment. The only ways to completely eliminate the spirochetes were with a
combination of a “deep cleaning” and laser treatment while the patient was
covered by antibiotics. The good news is that once the spirochetes are eliminated,
the simple hygiene methods described later are very effective in not allowing
them to re-populate the “gums.”
“Spore-like” Forms in the “Gum” Cells: If it is not bad enough that the
spirochetes are protected by a tough biofilm, there is one more piece of the
puzzle that needs to be addressed. Recent research has shown that oral bacteria
actually enter and live inside the epithelial “gum” (cells that form the lining of the
gingival sulcus or pocket around the teeth). Researchers believe that these cells
are the source for recontamination of the “gums” once the teeth are cleaned by
the dentist. A microscopic examination can be performed to diagnosis these
stealth bacteria, completely unknown to dentists until very recently. To
completely eliminate these bacteria, a laser is used to vaporize them. Then with
hygiene methods described herein, the “gums” can be cleaned daily to prevent
re-contamination and re-population. No more painful cleanings thereafter.
Can I Catch “Gum” Disease from a partner?
In a word, Yes. “Gum” disease is very communicable. Science has shown
that families and “care-givers” within the families have the same types of bacteria
in their mouths. Singles who are sexually active can “catch” periodontal disease
from their dates. People do not understand that “gum” disease is more dangerous
than most sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Even
though they are uncomfortable, rarely does
gonorrhea, human papillary disease (HPD), or
Chlamydia, for example, kill people. AIDs and Syphilis
are another story and they are dangerous. Heart
disease, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease take many
decades to develop but are unquestionably,
assuredly, killers in the long-run.
How do I Know I Have These “Bad-bugs?
How do I know I have “gum” disease? “Gum” disease is best learned by
noticing that your “gums” bleed when they are brushed. Is there blood in your
mouth in the morning when you wake-up? Another suspicion is if someone tells
you that you have “bad-breath.”
For women, do your “gums” bleed at “certain times of the month?” Or if
you are pregnant, do your “gums” bleed easily when they are brushed? If so, then
you have “gum” disease. The dentist can confirm the existence of these
spirochetes with a microscope.
How to Prevent the “Bad-bugs” from Gaining Entrance to your Body
The answer is to get your “gums” healthy. How do we keep the “gums”
healthy? You would think this must be impossible or very difficult because of all
the major diseases these “bad bugs” cause. The
answer to keeping the “gums” healthy is surprising
easy. All the products that you need can be purchased
and are very inexpensive.
Where do I Start?
Traditionally, the best way to find out if you
have “gum” disease is to ask your dentist. The dentist
can diagnosis the problematic bacteria and suggest
treatment to get rid of the malicious culprits. For people who have periodontal
disease, it is best to seek the care of a dentist who can, in most cases, treat the
condition with a combination of an antibiotics, deep cleaning, and laser surgery.
Give the dentist a copy of the book, The Silent Saboteurs, which you can purchase
at the website: www.lymebook.com. This book has the latest on this subject
which your dentist may not know. Another resource is the blog:
www.lifeguardyourhealth.com.
Three Steps to Get Started
First Step: Get Rid of the Spirochetes — If you do not have the signs of “gum”
disease described earlier, you do not even need a dentist to get started, even
though the process is best monitored by the dentist. You can put together your
own Tool Kit to begin fighting “gum” disease immediately.
Tool Kit for Orally Transmitted Diseases
To get started protecting yourself from bacteria
passed to you purchase the following items:
1. An oral irrigator (i.e., HydroFloss™).
2. A special mixture of anti-microbial essential
oils and emulsifier.
3. A box of Arm and Hammer Baking Soda.
4. Table salt.
5. A small one-cup plastic container with lid.
6. An ordinary tooth brush.
Instructions to be done most effectively everyday just before bedtime
Use of Irrigator:
1. Place the mixture of natural essential antimicrobial oils and emulsifier into
the irrigator.
2. Fill the oral irrigator up to approximately 2/3’s with warm tap water and stir
to get the oils well mixed into the water.
3. Turn on the irrigator and direct the jet of water irrigator at an angle to flush
out the area between your gums and teeth and also between your teeth
until the water bath solution is gone.
Use of Baking Soda and Salt: Mix ½ cup of
Baking Soda with 1 teaspoon of salt, mix it
together and place it in the one cup plastic
container.
1. Wet the tooth brush with water and
dip it into the mixture of baking
soda and salt. Brush your teeth
with this mixture making sure to get
the mixture into the gingival sulcus
and between your teeth.
2. Rinse out the excess mixture and go
to bed.
By performing this hygiene procedure just
before bedtime, the majority of the
bacteria in your mouth is killed and not
allowed to multiply and cause bad breath
and disease in the warm and undisturbed
environment of your mouth while you
sleep. When you awake in the morning,
your breath should be fresh and clean.
Spouses or new partners need to be
instructed to visit his/her dentist for a periodontal disease check and tooth
cleaning and begin the hygiene regiment described above before any intimate
contact.
Theory of Action: The special emulsifier acts like soap when used in the
irrigator and helps blast off and wash away the gummy film and plaque from the
teeth at the same time the antimicrobial essential oils is killing bacteria.
Baking soda and salt kills bacteria and also neutralizes acids produced by
“bad-bugs.” Oral spirochetes need an acid environment to survive in the mouth.
The baking soda neutralizes this acid produced by the “bad-bug.” Salt is a
preservative and bacteria cannot live in a salty environment. Baking soda and salt
used together is the most effective way to keep your mouth free of the harmful
bacteria long-term.
Second step: Add “Good” Bacteria to Your Diet —
Since the methods described above kills all bacteria,
it is important to include a good yogurt or probiotic
(purchased at a health food market) to your diet on
a regular basis. These products replenish “good”
bacteria replacing and inhibiting “bad” bacteria.
These “good” bacteria are not only necessary for
controlling the over population of “bad” oral
bacteria in your mouth, they inhibit and replenish
“good” necessary bacteria in the stomach, and the
large and small intestine in the gut. Crohn's disease,
diverticulitis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and other
intestinal abnormalities are examples of such
diseases. Great promise has been achieved by implanting fecal material from
healthy persons to unhealthy persons suffering from these imbalances of bacteria
in the gut.
Third Step: Life style Change — Developing good eating
habits by eliminating sugar, corn syrup, and refined
carbohydrates is an absolute necessity in achieving health
and protection against chronic inflammatory autoimmune
diseases. Conclusive scientific evidence completed and
published in over one thousand articles has proven that
diseases such as heart disease can be prevented and even
reversed just by changing eating habits. The key is to
make the main portion of your meal vegetables.
Vegetables have all the micro-nutrients to boost the immune system and fight the
microbes that would cause harm.
Final Words
You need to take charge of your own health. Even though the contents of
this article are well known within the research community, it will be years before
it is common knowledge among clinicians who actually treat chronic diseases. The
references below will give you the information to begin to understand and master
your our destiny and health. To protect yourself from these invading new strains
of bacteria, use the dental advice and oral hygiene practices described in this
article to eliminate them and enjoy life abundantly disease free.
