Apparent Regression of Symptoms of Alzheimer Disease Treated with a Combination of Medication and a Food Additive Mixture

Abstract

An unusual case of reduction in the symptoms of Alzheimer disease (AD) is described as a new finding showing unexpectedretention of memory. Presenting with an NHS consultant diagnosis of vascular dementia in 2016 with no formaltreatment given, the patient, who was known to the author AC, started taking a specific food additive and supplementmixture in July 2017. This was associated with some reduction of previous confirmed vascular dementia-related psychoticbehavior but no improvement in his seriously reduced cognition. In October 2017 the consultant diagnosis waschanged to vascular dementia with AD and medication with donepezil was commenced. One month later an enhancedfood additive mixture was also commenced in addition to donepezil. Rapid improvement in cognition followed withapparent return of memory to a surprising extent over a period of four months with improvement continuing to date.
