Alzheimer's disease, as we all know, is a devastating disorder of
the brain, that leaves its victims physically and mentally helpless.
While considered to be a rare disorder at the turn of the century,
it has now become a globally threatening socio-medical problem,
affecting roughly 10% of individuals 65 years of age and older.

The scientific community is presently working with a number of
theories on its origin that include the mainstream hypothesis of
beta amyloid precursor protein disturbances (BAPP), genetic mutation
on chromosome 21, the old standby aluminum (yes!), a recent British
report of resprouting of brain nerve cells, and a recent German
report of an enzyme contributing to the destructive processes on the
brain.
Despite the ongoing research on Alzheimer's disease and a host of
other, taxing disorders, and despite the various 'Societies' and
'Foundations' set up to spread awareness and educate the public,
the sobering fact remains that these diseases relentlessly continue
to claim new victims every day.

To those, that believe in an ounce of prevention, or are already
in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease, I'd like to propose a
workable solution that came about when I compared the chemistry
of patients diagnosed with the disorder.
While the answer may seem overly simplistic, it has been successful
in arresting the disease in its early stage and shows even greater
potential for its prevention.

Since blood tests are of limited value in determining a person's
mineral status, I developed an electronic test (EMR), that measures
the intra-cellular reactivity of various chemicals, consisting of:

Copper, Chromium, Magnesium, Nickel, Cobalt, Calcium, Potassium,
Sodium, Sulfur, Fluoride, Zinc, Iron, Bismuth, Manganese, Iodine,
Silicon, Bromine, Selenium, Phosphorus, Chlorine, Lithium and
Germanium as well as stomach / duodenum HCl levels and others.

The test was conducted on nearly 7,000 individuals, using the
entire range of minerals regardless of their medical status.
My original intent was to see if a link between diseases and a
corresponding pre-disease chemical pattern could be established
using a cellular metabolism type of test.

While the patterns for certain cancers (ovarian, breast, stomach,
prostate, etc.) and a few other disorders are now confirmed on a
daily basis, comparing the mineral status of patients diagnosed
with Alzheimer's disease revealed - without exceptions thus far -
a progressive inactivity of SULFUR, as the primary, and selenium
as the secondary agent.

These findings do by no means discredit any other studies underway;
lets not forget that most work in Alzheimer's research is done
examining the "finished," terminal product, while I measure the
cellular ability to metabolize a particular chemical agent, which,
if lost, sets the stage for the development of various types of
diseases.
There is still a loyal following of reputable scientists who insist
that aluminum is implicated as a likely factor in the disease and the
fact that SULFUR AND ALUMINUM ARE ANTAGONISTS and fight for cellular
dominance should make them very happy. Selenium has the reputation
of being able to eliminate cadmium, mercury, arsenic, lead, etc...
which I found confirmed when I repeatedly inhaled large amounts of
solder fumes, and each time my selenium dropped noticeably and
remained low for up to a couple of weeks or longer.

I personally believe that the ridiculous argument of eggs contribu-
ting to cholesterol-related disorders is one major reason Alzheimer's
disease is on the increase. I recommend to anyone with low sulfur
levels to load up on sulfur-rich foods (onions, eggs, garlic...) to
their heart's content and let all the egg-bashing "experts" disappear
into a black hole, along with their myths.

For brevity, I would like to cite just one case history: In Jan./1988
a man suffering from Alzheimer's disease was brought in by his family
for a chemical analysis and as I found out later, he had been part of
a group that participated in a drug study (THA) for Alzheimer's,
conducted by a local self-described authority on Alzheimer's disease.

With his condition worsening, his family decided to take him off
all drugs and started him on my recommendations instead, consisting
among other things, of foods high in sulfur. Within a year, that
patient became more talkative, even started to use the phone again,
and now, five years later, he carries on a normal conversation and is
in excellent health.
All other patients that remained in the original study group are
either in a fetal position now or have in the meantime passed away!

I'd like to mention that I have found the effects of low sulfur
being a cause of memory and concentration problems even in school
children already, with an amelioration evident after normalizing
their sulfur activity.
