Youve probably seen the latest news headlines confirming the link between the herpes virus and the development of Alzheimers disease. This isnt a new finding, by any means. I alerted you to this unusual connection back in April of 2012. But until now it hasnt been widely accepted. Thats because many medical professionals are still holding onto an outdated theory called the amyloid hypothesis. According to this hypothesis, the build up of amyloid plaques in the brain is the driving factor behind Alzheimers disease. However, when Alzheimers patients are given experimental drugs to rid them of these plaques, a strange thing happens. While the drugs achieve their goal of reducing plaques, the progression of the disease becomes worse, not better. For years scientists have been scratching their heads over this dilemma. But given the recent breakthroughs linking herpes and other viral infections to Alzheimers disease, it actually makes a great deal of sense. You see, it turns that it is much more likely amyloid plaques are part of your bodys natural immune response against infection. In other words, these plaques are actually trying to protect the brain from an infectious agent such as a bacteria or virus. This is why killing off the plaque can worsen the condition instead of improving it. Avoid needless joint pain and regain your mobility How do you really solve whatever is causing joint discomfort instead of just dealing with the symptoms? Yes, you can shoot painkillers at the problem all day long but that's like fixing a leaky pipe with duct tape... It doesn't last! This solution is unlike anything else you have ever seen and you won't be learning about it from your doctor (who's probably never even heard of it!) No, this all-natural secret is in a class of its own because it doesn't just work on how you feel - it gets right to the source of joint problems. This superfood will: Turn on your natural defenses against pain Promote your body to repair cartilage, tendons and ligaments for stronger joints Increase circulation and reduce swelling Get real relief finally! c728.drhinternet.net/ga/click/2-31384-8-112-235-656-dffb8a9f69-4088bdbdc9 Herpes Virus is Abundant in Alzheimers Brains I dont want to bore you with science. But I think it is very important that you understand what happened in the latest study linking the herpes virus to Alzheimers disease. The scientists conducted postmortem examinations on the brains of 600 people with and without Alzheimers disease. And what they discovered turns the amyloid hypothesis on its head. The researchers found that DNA from the herpes virus was more abundant in the brains of patients diagnosed with Alzheimers than those without. In particular, the abundance of HHV-6A and HHV-7 were both strongly associated with worse dementia scores. Now, these two forms of herpes are extremely common. They infect about 90% of children in the form of a mild disease called roseola. But once the infection is cleared up, the virus doesnt go away. Rather, it goes dormant
staying in your body for your entire lifetime. And it can be reactivated at any time. So in most cases the question isnt whether you have herpes antibodies in your system
its a question of how active they are. The more active they are, and the more ability they have to replicate, the more chance they have of spreading into your brain and starting the process that results in Alzheimers disease. The idea, then, is to keep any latent herpes genes in their dormant state throughout your lifetime. c728.drhinternet.net/ga/click/2-31384-8-112-235-657-9be8fb5fbf-4088bdbdc9 Overactive bladder keeping you awake?

A good exercise program also supports your immune system and ability to fight off inflammation. But there are also two amino acids that are crucial when it comes to silencing (or activating) the herpes virus. The first, L-lysine works to prevent activation and replication of herpes. The other one, L-arginine works just the opposite. It tends to stimulate the virus. But this doesnt mean its a good idea to cut arginine out of your diet and load up on lysine. Thats because your body needs arginine to build protein, heal wounds, remove toxic waste from your body and support arterial health. So more than anything, its a matter of balance. Simply put, all you need to do is ensure that your lysine intake is higher than your arginine intake. And its not nearly as complicated as you might think it sounds. There are many foods that contain both nutrients, but with a ratio favoring lysine. These include
Fruits like papaya, mango, apricot, apple, pear, fig, avocado and pineapple. Tomatoes, turnips, celery, summer squash and green beans also have a good lysine/arginine ratio. Greens, such as spinach, kale, turnip greens and endive have about equal amounts of lysine and arginine. Most fish, including salmon, mackerel and sardines. Poultry and, to a slightly lower extent, beef. Some foods that favor arginine include nuts, seeds, mushrooms, wheat products, coconut, green onions, cucumbers and oatmeal. But that doesnt mean you have to avoid these foods. They have health benefits of their own. As long as you get enough lysine to displace the arginine (they compete for the same space in your body) you can avoid reactivating the virus. I recommend supplementing with 1500 mg of lysine daily. While the herpes virus may play a significant role in the genesis of Alzheimers disease, we have to remember that its never one thing when it comes to chronic degenerative disease. Other lifestyle causes have been implicated; chronically elevated blood sugar, advanced glycation end products, chronic inflammation and lack of restorative sleep are some of the stressors we deal with in maintaining a healthy brain. The good news is that each one of these is preventable or controllable. But those are issues for another day. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
