Bredesen-Protocol Strategies to improve brain health and reverse cognitive decline

Bredesen protocol explained

At proactive wellness, we believe that there is no more important component of your overall health than brain health.  Yet, before much of the emerging research that is being presented today, not much has been known about how to promote brain health and in particular how to lower risk for dementia/alzheimer’s and how to stabilize it for patients that already have early signs and symptoms through effective dementia treatment.  At Proactive Wellness Centers, Dr. Lawson is one of the elite Bredesen Protocol practitioners, ReCode 2.0 Certified, with 17 years of functional medicine experience to get to the root cause of the cognitive decline of you or your loved one.

Keep reading to learn more about our exciting new Brain Health Optimization Program (BHOP), but before we go there, let’s understand a little background and relevant history.

For perspective, according to the CDC, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is present in 50% of patients in nursing homes, causes more than 110,000 deaths in the US per year and was the 6th leading cause of death overall based on 2015 data. AD affects over 5 million people in the US alone.  Some recent data suggests that the problem is getting worse based on early data from 2016 and 2017.

If we look beyond the United States, dementia is fast becoming one of the world’s most burdensome illnesses. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there are currently around 47 million people across the globe living with dementia, and this number is expected to reach 75 million by 2030, and 132 million by 2050.  AD is the most common form of dementia, accounting for around 60 to 80 percent of all cases.

PATIENT RESPONSE

Hi Lynese — Great news – seems a fibroid has disappeared! The ultrasound revealed only one fibroid this time, and it is just a little teensy bit smaller than before. So it hasn’t gotten any bigger at all. And the other fibroid didn’t show up on the ultrasound. smile

Thank goodness I did not get that hysterectomy, huh? and thank goodness I came to you to start the bio-identical hormone therapy. I believe that the progesterone is working. And I’m so glad I’m not on the birth control pills anymore. BTW, haven’t had a period since September, and haven’t had any hot flashes either! Life is good.

Hi – hope you are doing well. Are you ready for Thanksgiving? I’m getting there. I wanted to let you know I hit the 30 lb loss today!!! Yeah! So excited! Clothes that didn’t fit are fitting. Clothes I used to wear are too big. Feeling great! A little nervous about tomorrow’s feeding frenzy- but hoping to not overindulge too bad.

LJ - Arlington, VA

My update. I feel pretty good!!! My bleeding is under control and I am now regular for the most part. Sometimes I will have a strange menstral bleed (long and slow), but I will take it compared to my old “normal”. I still love the progesterone and testosterone I am on. They leave me with no side effects.

I was very happy at my recent (Feb 6th) annual doc appt (physical). After the standard blood draw work up, my numbers were:
Vitamin D= 66.9 (down a bit from your work up which was 77, but still good)
Cholesterol=123 (down from 150 in Sept 2011)
Triglycerides=91 (down from 129 in Sept 2011)

So… I am the new spokesperson for HCG! I love that stuff!! smile The second round for me was amazing. I was very disciplined and determined and after about the 3rd day, it become very easy for me. I was able to drop 14lbs in an 18 day cycle!!!! AND….I am keeping that off with very little effort! OMG I couldn’t be happier! I am in the body that I am comfortable in once again! That feels so good. I am continuing to eat clean and exercise, it is a great life change!

“So far I have lost 30#’s in 6 weeks and have the energy of a 40 year old. Am so thankful to be able to handle unpacking and shelving 6000 books. I am up and down stepladders and extension ladders with books in tow. The awful arthritis pain is there but the energy isn’t depleted from the pain like before and I keep going like this for hours.”

LL - Winchester, VA

Hi Lynese – In an old file I found a print out from an online longevity calculator I had used in 2007 (www.eons.com). I thought I was doing well because it said I would likely live to 86! But I just re-took the survey. Basically by cutting out the coffee, carbs and sugar, increasing my exercise and losing weight, I’ve apparently added 13 years to my life!! The calculator now says I could live to be 99!! With a little more exercise and a little less work, I could live to 106!! Thanks for all the added years Lynese!!!

All the best.

P.S. – I saw Diane over the weekend – she’s looking great, and is so happy with her weight loss.

AP - Falls Church, VA

Dare I say it out loud? It sure is looking as though Semorelin has given me my life back. I was so worried about skiing – afraid I’d ski one day and be in bed the rest of the week. But I was just fine. This past Saturday I prepared, served, and cleaned up (with help) dinner for 14. Sunday I was just fine.

Dear Lynese,

Words cannot describe how happy I am with your anti-aging program. I have not felt this good in YEARS. Since getting pregnant in 1995 I have been overweight. Between 1992-1995 I was being treated for infertility and had to take all sorts of hormones that made me bloated and tired.

Now, at the age of 46 I have more energy and I look better than I have in YEARS. I actually THRIVE on exercise and do it religiously because I know it is the key to keeping the weight off and enjoying the foods that I love.

As a successful businesswoman, you often feel that you can’t have everything and I put my weight and health on hold to grow my business. You have given me the gift of being able to run a business AND look good. I am getting so much attention for my weight loss and it has helped my confidence and self esteem greatly.Since I do a lot of speaking engagements, I know that image is more important than what you say or how you say it. By looking better and appearing fit and healthy, I am a more powerful public speaker!

I can’t say enough about this gift you have given me and I hope you know how much I appreciate you.

On top of all of this, you are truly a beautiful person inside and out who provides a level of caring I have never seen from a doctor, weight loss clinic or other health professional.

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Lynese – Just had to share this with you. I have appeared in an online newsletter (Legal Bisnow) twice – the first time a year ago and the second time today. Look at the difference in my photos!

It’s an absolute miracle! In the older photo even my eyelids look fat! I can’t get over how much I now look like my old self – of 20 years ago! I certainly don’t look like I’m closing in on 59, do I??

The best thing anyone has said to me so far was a comment made by a neighbor who saw me today for the first time in over a year. At first he didn’t recognize me. Then he just stared intently into my face for a few minutes and said “How is your mother?” (I was confused because he doesn’t know my mother). Then he said “I had to ask that because you look like your own daughter!” Wow!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

AP - Falls Church, VA

“With that said, I have been getting incredible compliments:
“You look like a movie star”
“What have you been doing”
“You look amazing”
“You look ten years younger”
I feel incredible”

KB - Reston, VA

Anyway – just had to tell you that my size 12 pants have been falling off of me! I went to Target this weekend to get some cheap crop pants and shorts for the summer – still not wanting to invest much in clothes that are not my “target” size. (I’ve blown past the size 14 shorts I couldn’t fit into for years). And wouldn’t you know – the 12s were too big – I fit best in the size 10!!

I’M A 10!!! I’m amazed!!

I broke the 170 barrier too – I’m now 168. Just 13 pounds to go to my goal weight. I can’t believe it. The meds have been working like a charm. I think the extra thyroid has really boosted me past a plateau. I’m cleaning out my closet like a madwoman; I can’t believe how much clothing I have for donations.

I’m still getting double takes and amazed looks from people who haven’t seen me for awhile. And after remarking how great I look, a girlfriend recently peered suspiciously at me and said – “And have you had something done to your face too? You look younger!” And I do!

Take our quick assessment. Or, if you are a concerned observer, answer from your observations of their behavior. If you or the observed person have more than 1 of the listed symptoms above, a cognitive evaluation is in order.

Signs and symptoms of AD are not normal signs of aging. If you or someone you love is experiencing any of these symptoms, it is important to make an appointment as possible because AD worsens over time.

AD is a progressive disease and although there is no cure, the Bredesen’s protocol has been able to slow and reverse cognitive decline. Remember, the earlier AD is caught, the easier it is to successfully treat the condition.

Once a person has noticeable symptoms, they are in the later stages of cognitive decline. AD has an initial “silent phase,” where brain degeneration is occurring but these changes are not detectable using objective tests. Patients may, however, notice slight memory and cognitive changes. See the image below.

AD is a form of dementia as illustrated by the graphic below:

dementia explained

For understanding and to separate Alzheimer’s from “normal aging” it is helpful to define AD.   Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an irreversible (?), progressive brain disorder that slowly destroys memory and thinking skills and, eventually, the ability to carry out the simplest tasks. It is characterized by the development of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary, or tau, tangles; the loss of connections between nerve cells (neurons) in the brain; and the death of these nerve cells. It is the most common cause of dementia in older adults. While dementia is more common as people grow older, it is not a normal part of aging.  There are two types of Alzheimer’s—early-onset (very rare) and late-onset. Both types have a genetic component.

  1. Early-onset AZ is caused by any one of a number of different single-gene mutations on chromosomes 21, 14, and 1. Each of these mutations causes abnormal proteins to be formed. Mutations on chromosome 21 cause the formation of abnormal amyloid precursor protein (APP). A mutation on chromosome 14 causes abnormal presenilin 1 to be made, and a mutation on chromosome 1 leads to abnormal presenilin 2.

  Each of these mutations plays a role in the breakdown of APP, a  protein whose precise function is not yet      fully understood. This breakdown is part of a process that generates harmful forms of amyloid plaques, a      hallmark of the disease.

  1. Most people with Alzheimer’s have the late-onset form of the disease, in which symptoms become apparent in the mid-60s and later. The causes of late-onset Alzheimer’s are not yet completely understood, but they likely include a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that affect a person’s risk for developing the disease.

Researchers have not found a specific gene that directly causes the late-onset form of the disease. However, one genetic risk factor—having one form of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene on chromosome 19—does increase a person’s risk. APOE comes in several different forms, or alleles:

  • APOE ε2 is relatively rare and may provide some protection against the disease. If Alzheimer’s disease occurs in a person with this allele, it usually develops later in life than it would in someone with the APOE ε4 gene.
  • APOE ε3, the most common allele, is believed to play a neutral role in the disease—neither decreasing nor increasing risk.
  • APOE ε4 increases risk for Alzheimer’s disease and is also associated with an earlier age of disease onset. A person has zero, one, or two APOE ε4 alleles. Having more APOE ε4 alleles increases the risk of developing Alzheimer’s.
    • APOE ε4 is called a risk-factor gene because it increases a person’s risk of developing the disease. However, inheriting an APOE ε4 allele does not mean that a person will definitely develop Alzheimer’s. Some people with an APOE ε4 allele never get the disease, and others who develop Alzheimer’s do not have any APOE ε4 alleles.

Click here for a more complete understanding of APOE and its role in development of AD

Apolipoprotein E (apoE) has multiple roles, including lipid transport in the blood and the brain. The APOE4 variant increases the risk for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease and may contribute to the pathology of the disease through influence on β-amyloid, inflammation, or other processes.

The risk for development of late-onset AD is increased approximately two- to threefold for individuals with one copy of the APOE4 variant and by approximately 10- to 15-fold for individuals with two copies of the variant (E4/E4 genotype). The APOE2 variant has some protective effect against development of late-onset AD. The lifetime risk for late-onset Alzheimer’s disease is approximately 10% to 12% in the general population, though it is higher in women than men and doubles when there is a first-degree relative with this disorder. The lifetime risk is approximately 9% for individuals negative for APOE4, and for individuals with E4/E4 may be as high as 25% for males and 45% for females. Among patients with late-onset AD, the presence of APOE4 may lead to earlier development of symptoms.

What can a person do to minimize their risk for developing AZ and reverse cognitive decline?

Given that science has not yet established a specific causal factor, it is believed that the development of the disease is based on a combination of genetics (APOE), lifestyle factors, history of head trauma (ex. Athletes like football players), mitochondrial damage and toxin exposure including biotoxins (Mold exposure).  From our functional medicine underpinning, we know that mitochondrial damage can be initiated by free radical damage and that this can be mitigated through effective detoxification, proper nutritional supplementation, ensuring gut health, healthy eating and other lifestyle factors. From our knowledge about the damage inflicted by CIRS (Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome from mold exposure) it is easy to conceptualize how CIRS is related to cognitive decline as may CIRS patients experience reversible cognitive decline if CIRS is left untreated.

After much research, Dr. Lawson determined that the Bredesen protocol provides the best evidenced-based approach to diagnosing and treating cognitive decline from AD and related illnesses.  The world renowned Dr. Dale Bredesen has created the ReCODE protocol that involves multiple strategies to address specific health issues that contribute to Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). The results of each strategy are measured by using blood tests, cognitive evaluations, dementia tests, and other markers of overall health improvements.  Dr. Lawson is now a Bredesen Certified doctor, ReCode 2.0 as she has completed the study and certification requirements to be able to offer patients the full Bredesen ReCODE protocol to help them recover from these debilitating illnesses.  The only way to get this care is to see a Bredesen protocol doctor, Certified under ReCode 2.0 to ensure you are getting the best possible care.

At the forefront of this functional medicine approach to AD is Dr. Dale Bredesen and his team from the Buck Institute for Research on Aging. Through careful examination of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s, Doctor Bredesen and his team have found promising results. They have developed a multiple modality approach to achieving what they call metabolic enhancement for neurodegeneration (MEND), now referred to as Reversal of Cognitive Decline or Bredesen ReCODE.

Through the approach Doctor Bredesen has developed, patients have been able to dramatically improve cognitive function, achieve reversal of symptoms, and in some cases, return to work. The ReCODE program includes lifestyle interventions, therapeutic diets, and targeted nutrients.  We are excited to add this promising Alzheimer’s disease treatment modality for the benefit of patients of Proactive Wellness Centers.

Baseline Bredesen Evaluation

We have two ways that we engage with patients seeking the Bredesen Protocol.  First is our Baseline Bredesen Evaluation is suitable for patients that are asymptomatic — meaning that beyond the normal age-related decline, the patient does not have any meaningful cognitive decline. Dr. Bredesen refers to this scenario as a “PreCode” patient.  Our Baseline Bredesen Evaluation is the starting point for PreCode patients or those that don’t know their status and risk factors.  The baseline Evaluation includes all of the following:

  1. Baseline labs and physical examination. A very complete set of baseline labs that will evaluate the entire spectrum of health and a baseline physical examination closely following the Bredesen protocol.  This goes well beyond standard labs to include magnesium, zine and selenium levels, B6, B12 and folate levels, Omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid levels, pre-diabetes evaluation, hormone levels, thyroid levels as well as specific immune markers like TH1, TH2, IL6 and TNF.  These labs are not included in our fee as they are billed to your insurance.  For patients that do not have insurance or that have insurance that denies many labs, these baseline labs can be purchased from Apollo Health for the very reduced price of $780 plus the required Apollo membership at $75/month.
  2. A baseline Cognitive Assessment. This is to establish a baseline and evaluate you against an age-specific norm to determine the state of your cognitive function today. We are using the CNS Vital Signs cognitive assessment, one of the most highly regarded assessments in the industry. In addition, we will also perform the standard MoCA test as well.
  3. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genetic test. This test is generally not covered by insurance but is an important component to our assessment.  It will be included on the insurance panel. If in doubt about coverage, contact your insurance carrier directly.
  4. A physical examination. 
  5. 2-hour consultation with our ReCode 2.0 Certified Physician. This will cover the review of the lab results and a detailed plan of action to address sub-optimal areas identified in the Evaluation.

The cost for the Bredesen Baseline Evaluation is $1975 and includes the components listed above.

Bredesen Complete Brain Health Optimization Program

For patients that have Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or more severe cognitive impairment, our complete Brain Health Optimization (BHO) Evaluation Program is the suggested starting point.  At this point, time is no longer in your favor so the BHOP adds several extensive testing components that allow us to quickly identify the full scope of areas to be addressed.

Note that the BHOP includes all components above plus the additional ones listed below.

Part 1: Baseline Cognitive Assessment including the MoCA and the CNS Vital signs detailed evaluation across 10 domains of cognitive health (eg. memory, executive function, reaction time, cognitive flexibility, etc.)

Part 2: Physical Examination (usually on same day as Part 1)

Part 3: First of 2 x 2hr comprehensive appointments with Dr. Lawson.  Day 1 is mostly focused on understanding test results and how they are contributing to the present state of the patient.

Part 4: Second of 2 x 2 hr with your Bredesen-Protocol doctor.  This appointment can be in office or it can be a tele-video visit to cover the remaining tests that were not covered in the initial visit and review the core elements of a personalized treatment plan.  In this visit, we will present the results of our evaluation in a personalized “cognoscopy”.  We are sure that it will be enlightening.

Below is a detailed listing of the dementia/AD tests that are potentially included in the Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment.  Note that both programs assume that patient has insurance to cover the baseline labs typically available at Quest/Labcorp under direct insurance billing.  Of the remaining listed labs, the $3475 fee includes $1700 that goes towards labs in points 5, 6,7,8,9 and 10 below only.  If the patient does not have insurance coverage for the baseline labs, Apollo Health offers the Baseline labs for the cash price of $780 — no insurance required.

  1. Comprehensive Initial Brain Health Assessment ($3475.00) Includes the following.
    1. Baseline labs and physical examination. A very complete set of baseline labs that will evaluate the entire spectrum of health and a baseline physical examination closely following the Bredesen protocol.  This goes well beyond standard labs to include magnesium, zine and selenium levels, B6, B12 and folate levels, Omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid levels, pre-diabetes evaluation, hormone levels, thyroid levels as well as specific immune markers like TH1, TH2, IL6 and TNF.  These labs are billed to your insurance.
    2. A baseline Cognitive Assessment. This is to establish a baseline and evaluate you against an age-specific norm to determine the state of your cognitive function today. We are using the CNS Vital Signs cognitive assessment, one of the most highly regarded assessments in the industry.
    3. Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genetic test. This test is generally not covered by insurance but is an important component to our assessment.
    4. Biotoxin illness Assessment. As there is emerging data to show that the presence of biotoxin illnesses greatly enhances a patient’s risk for developing AZ, this has to be a part of our brain health assessment.  If indicated by a screening questionnaire, the panel leverages the most critical markers from the published literature for determining if a patient’s health is being impacted by CIRS including TGB-Beta 1, MSH, MMP9, HLA DRB1, 3,5, HLA DQB1, ADH/OS and several others.  These labs are billed to your insurance.
    5. Comprehensive infection Assessment.  If indicated by a screening questionnaire, the area of assessment and possible testing looks for borrelia, most Lyme coinfections including babesia, bartonella, ehrlichia, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, Chlamydophila pneumoniae and Rocky Mountain Spotted PCR Fever.  These labs are billed to your insurance.
    6. Chemical  and heavy metals Immune Reactivity Screen. This area of testing looks for chronic and acute reactivity and antibodies across multiple chemicals and metals including aflatoxins, formaldehyde,   bisphenol A, tetrachloroethylene, parabens, mercury, nickel, cobalt, cadmium, lead, arsenic. Potentially Included in Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment fee.
    7. Urine mycotoxin testing.  Looks for presence of key mycotoxins in the urine. Mycotoxins are typically produced by mold exposure but there are other producers of mycotoxins as well.  Potentially included in Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment fee.
    8. Microbiome testing.  The gut microbiome resides in your large intestine and is host to more than 1000 species of bacteria that perform certain important functions from shaping the immune system to influencing metabolism of nutrients to fortifying the intestinal mucosal barrier.  Microbiome testing helps to identify imbalances in the gut microbiome that may be causing gastrointestinal symptoms, skin conditions, autoimmune disorders, immune system imbalances, and multiple inflammatory disorders.  Potentially included in Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment fee.
    9. Blood brain barrier testing.  This test is used to evaluate breaches of the Blood-Brain Barrier by stress, trauma or environmental triggers. Potentially included in Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment fee.
    10. Inflammation/Immune/Auto-Immune Specialty Genetic Panel.  This panel includes 30 gene variants that can affect one’s ability to control/ “turn off” inflammation. Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress can cause premature aging and most chronic diseases, including cancer and is a significant contributor to AD. Understanding a person’s genetic is valuable in both prevention and treatment.  Potentially included in Comprehensive Brain Health Assessment fee.
    11. MRI with Neuroquant (NQ).  Listed here for completeness. Not included in the price as this test is covered by most insurances.  Used to assess the brain for structural issues and the NQ is used to determine if atrophy or hypertrophy has occurred in the various brain sectors.  This is useful for assessing biotoxin illness as well as for broader use in AZ risk.  This test is billed to insurance.
    12. Your own personalized “Cognoscopy”.  The Cognoscopy is a summary report that brings together our findings from all of the testing mentioned above and summarizes your risks as it relates to each of the six Alzheimer’s types, and a summary clinical Alzheimer’s disease treatment plan to optimize health and reverse mild cognitive decline if it has begun.    Note that to get the actual prescriptions and clinical plan fine details, you must enroll in the Brain Health Optimization Program outlined below.
  2. Brain Health Optimization Program (BHOP) ($2975 – $9975 for 12 months depending on patient case specifics and scope of our services). Once the evaluation is complete, whether it be the Baseline or Complete program as described above the treatment component begins for those patients that elect to move forward with treatment.  Note, prices listed above do not include any medications or supplements.  Further, note that all patients who enroll in our Brain Health Optimization Program must commit to a one-year “ReCODE” subscription at $75 per month with Dr. Bredesen and Apollo Health at https://apollo.ahnphealth.com/logins/new.    The BHOP includes all of the following to optimize the probability of success:
    • Specific and individually tailored lifestyle modification guidance. Through this program component, we will provide specific and tailored guidance to apply all of the lifestyle modifications that we are currently aware of that help to mitigate risk for developing AD. Naturally, this area will continue to emerge so it will be very dynamic as more emerging credible data is published.
    • Bioidentical Hormone Replacement as indicated by test results
    • Treatment for biotoxin and other chronic illnesses as indicated by test results
    • Development and adjustment as needed of a comprehensive clinical plan for the patient that is driven by the ReCode recommendations
    • Specific recommended nutritional supplements to enhance brain health.
    • All followup visits are included in the program.  The number and frequency will vary but expect followup visits (physical or remote) every two weeks in the early part of the program and every 2-3 weeks in the later part of the program.
    • Followup Cognitive Assessments 6 months after program commencement and 11 months. We will compare the results of this assessment with the baseline to determine improvement and/or degradation in cognitive function.

Already have labs and your Recode report and just need a physician to review your Recode report and advise of recommended next steps?  For this, our Bredesen Recode Report Consultation is the place to start.  The fee for this is $1475.00 including a 2.5-hour physician review and consultation.

We are truly excited to bring this program forth to our patient population. Dr. Lawson is passionate about this area of our health and she is committed to being on the leading-edge or the emerging Bredesen treatment protocols.  Ready to get started?  Use one of the options below.
