How a Medical Mystery in Guam Led to a New Approach to Alzheimer’s Disease

As part of his reporting for “The Last Alzheimer’s Patient” documentary, CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta travels to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to learn more about an ethnobotanist’s audacious theory on treating Alzheimer’s disease. After Dr. Paul Cox, founder of the nonprofit Brain Chemistry Labs, discovered the source of a mysterious neurodegenerative disease afflicting people in Guam, those clues led him to a novel way of thinking about Alzheimer’s and a simple amino acid called L-serine. His novel theory and possible treatment are now being tested in Mild Cognitive Impairment patients at Houston Methodist. Editor’s note: “Dr. Sanjay Gupta Reports: The Last Alzheimer’s Patient” airs at 8 p.m. ET Sunday, July 7, on CNN.

Listen to how the true scientist answers questions. He doesn’t make overly enthusiastic claims. He didn’t just endorse L-Sering, he was is specific speaking to what the question was, what they did to investigate, what they tried and simply what the result was. THIS is doing your research looks like and why trusting actual trained and practicing experts is so important.

Yes! Exactly what I was thinking! To go even further, this way of assessing information is, in my opinion, the best way to deal with misinformation. In fact, the term misinformation is problematic as it's a subjective label that suggests that it's objective, but it's not. Galileo Galilei was thought to be spreading misinformation in his time. So the best way to protect yourself against misinformation is to assess it. Assessing information is becoming the new Darwinian filter.

@AndreaCrisp 3 ай бұрын

Great comment. For the record, it is L-Serine. It can be synthesized in the human body under normal physiological circumstances, making it a nonessential amino acid. But given the prevalence of neuro cognitive disorders in the world now and all of the toxins we are exposed to these days may be humans need more than we used to in order to stay healthy.

@@ErikBongers Importantly, Galileo was persecuted by ignorant religious leaders who did no work to replicate or invalidate his work. Cranks and their fans like to drag Galileo out whenever they get criticized for spreading misinformation by claiming they’re challenging “scientific dogma” (which is not a thing) just like Galileo challenged religious dogma. Or “just asking questions” - which they pose to laypeople and journalists, rather than the experts. The best way to deal with misinformation, IMO, is say “don’t try to convince me - I’m not an expert. Wake me when you’ve convinced the experts.”

There's a kind of schizophrenia where a part of the brain pushes up against the skull. I don't know if all forms of schizophrenia are like that. Anxiety is correlated to the gut microbiome and there is a lot of study into it right now. I believe there are even diets that reduce anxiety due to after a handful of months they change the gut biome. Anxiety is interesting because it's also psychological, a blend of both the gut and the mind. Usually both aspects need to be addressed. On the psychological side both CBT and DBT both are proven in studies to work, and both of them I believe are 12 sessions, 1 session a week. A lot of progress can be done quite quickly thankfully. Good luck with everything.

The Japanese and other Asian cultures have had and maintained an enormous body of knowledge about the effects of all the different foods we consume. When a patient visits a doctor, food is always discussed and practical remedies are offered. Nutrition is also taught in public school, starting in primary school. Here in the west, we don’t even teach this to doctors, and they aren’t capable of addressing the effects of food on their patients. We also feed children heaps of ultra-processed foods in the public schools. This is incredibly ignorant on our part given that this knowledge has been accumulated and passed down for millennia. It’s time the authorities and influencers of policy started moving in the right direction.
