Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Eating More Ketones May Fight Against Alzheimer's Disease

You may need this, has your doctor had the nutritionist create a diet protocol on this for hospital food and then at discharge?

Your chances of getting dementia.



1. A documented 33% dementia chance post-stroke from an Australian study?   May 2012.





2. Then this study came out and seems to have a range from 17-66%. December 2013.





3. A 20% chance in this research.   July 2013.





4. Dementia Risk Doubled in Patients Following Stroke September 2018 





5. Parkinson’s Disease May Have Link to Stroke March 2017

Eating More Ketones May Fight Against Alzheimer's Disease

 Early in the development of Alzheimer's disease, the brain becomes over excited, potentially through the loss of inhibitory, or GABAergic, interneurons that keep other neurons from signaling too much. Because interneurons require more energy compared to other neurons, they may be more susceptible to dying when they encounter the Alzheimer's disease protein amyloid beta. Amyloid beta has been shown to damage mitochondria -- the metabolic engine for cells -- by interfering with SIRT3, a protein that preserves mitochondrial functions and protects neurons.

Ketones Better for Alzheimer's Neurons

Cheng et al. genetically reduced levels of SIRT3 in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease.

Mice with low levels of SIRT3 experienced a much higher mortality rate, more violent seizures, and increased interneuron death compared to the mice from the standard Alzheimer's disease model and control mice. However, the mice with reduced levels of SIRT3 experienced fewer seizures and were less likely to die when they ate a diet rich in ketones, a specific type of fatty acid. The diet also increased levels of SIRT3 in the mice.

Increasing SIRT3 levels via ketone consumption may be a way to protect interneurons and delay the progression of Alzheimer's disease.
