Early Detection and Prevention of Alzheimer's

Bringing Hope to Alzheimer's

Are you starting to experience moments of forgetfulness, confusion, or mental fog? Don't dismiss these signs—tune in to this crucial episode of "Bringing Hope to Alzheimer's" with Anne Fraser. Today, we dive deep into understanding cognitive issues, their early detection, and the vital role of functional medicine in preventing Alzheimer's.
In this enlightening episode, Anne Fraser shares personal anecdotes and expert insights on the early signs of cognitive decline. Whether it's struggling to remember words, feeling unusually foggy upon waking, or experiencing difficulty following conversations, these could be indicators of deeper cognitive issues. Ann emphasizes that recognizing these symptoms early on can make a significant difference in managing and potentially reversing cognitive decline.
We explore the Moca and B-Cat tests, two quick and effective methods for assessing cognitive health. These tests, which take just 15 minutes, provide a snapshot of where your brain stands today. Anne provides a step-by-step guide on what to expect during these tests and how they can help in early detection of cognitive impairments.
But detecting issues is just the first step. Anne introduces the functional medicine approach, which looks beyond symptoms to identify the root causes of cognitive decline. From nutritional deficiencies to hormonal imbalances, Anne explains how functional medicine practitioners use comprehensive testing—examining everything from blood and urine to stool and saliva—to create a complete picture of your health.
Lifestyle changes can also play a pivotal role in cognitive health. Anne offers practical tips on diet, stress management, and exercise, highlighting the impact of sugar and inflammation on the brain. Learn how simple adjustments, like reducing sugar intake and incorporating more vegetables, can significantly boost your brain health.

Anne Fraser faced immense challenges as the primary caregiver for both of her parents. Tragically, both parents passed away from these debilitating diseases. Later, Anne herself was diagnosed with cognitive decline, a known precursor to Alzheimer's and dementia.
With her tenacity and knowledge, Anne embarked on a journey to reverse her cognitive decline back to 100% cognition. By seeking medical assistance and implementing crucial lifestyle changes, she successfully achieved her goal.
In addition to her experience in caregiving and cognitive health, Anne is also an accomplished entrepreneur. Together with her husband Mark, Anne owns and operates The Fraser Team, a renowned real estate agency powered by The Rob Ellerman Team and ReeceNichols.
