THE CURE FOR ALL DISEASES
on her recovery. She is a person again. And there seems to be a
delightful companionship.Ruben Camberos was brought by his wife and a friend for Alzheimer's.
The first day he arrived, the intestinal flukes in his brain were
found and killed. He was started on EDTA chelation. They were
warned about non sterile dairy foods. His Shigella was zapped.
Four days later he spoke his first meaningful sentence: it was
three words long. He could pay attention to the appointment
proceedings. Two days after that he was reading a newspaper.
This was utterly shocking to his wife. In another three days, he
could hold a conversation consisting of very short sentences.
Larger ones became hopelessly garbled. He was started on orni-
thine (4) and valerian capsules (6) at bedtime: this produced a
beautiful nights sleep (especially for his caretakers!) and his days
were less agitated. There were still setbacks later but his wife was
determined to get him well.
Dementias, Memory Loss.........................................
Memory loss is progressive with age but not due to aging.
There are plenty of nonagenarians and centenarians with clear
minds and good memories to prove that age is not the deciding
factor in the dementias. Why do some people deteriorate much
sooner? Could you prevent personal deterioration of mental
abilities? You probably can. You will know it by noticing
memory improvement. Telephone numbers that left you with no
recall, unless you wrote them down, number by number, now
form groups as you hear them, and you can jot them down the
way you always did! This is a good sign of memory improve-
ment. Your writing can improve. The jagged, crooked, mis-
aligned words can be smoothly written again! You can remember
things that happened earlier in the day and talk about it later, at
mealtime. You can finish your thoughts in conversation.
