reverse a trol

REVERSE A TROL

thats a misspelling i made up for the chemical
resveratrol
its a hope that i have and that researchers have
that reverse is what it can do

more in a minute

a correction to last fridays blog
i wrote the results of the ucla study was not anecdotal
the author when i went back to review it says clearly
these results are anecdotal
only
i guess when a more lengthy study involving more people
with a control group is done then this can be considered
not anecdotal

as i said last week
time is not on my side
i cant wait for that to happen

i got all my labs back
my crp was normal
8 years ago it was elevated
its a measure of inflammation
i still plan to continue the vit e omega fish oil curcumin and
good dental hygiene

my homoscysteine level is elevated
8 years ago it was up and now its higher
this time its is 13.7 with the recommended level <7

it is an amino acid that has been shown if it is elevated
a person may have a doubled chance of getting alzheimers disease
the treatment which i will do is to take folic acid at 0.8 mg a day
the dose a pregnant lady takes in her prenatal vitamins
and will also take b12 and vit b6 also which may help decrease
the homocysteine level


my vit b12 level was slightly low at 162 with the normal level
being >192
for this result i was surprised
i dont eat a lot of  meat
i do eat an egg a day
i do eat cheese twice a day
i dont eat fortified cereals
i rarely ever eat seafood
or fish
i think my low level may be due to the chronic reflux i have
and the fact i take acid reducers every day
so
i will start taking a vit b12 supplement level every day to bring
the level back up to normal
i will take 1mgm or 1000mcg a day
remember
a low b12 level can be a cause of memory loss
although my level is probably not low enough to cause memory loss
but it could have eventually got there


my 25-oh vit d3 level was slightly low at 46
recomended levels are 50-100
this one i was surprised at since i get so much sunlight
i frequently use sunscreen but will leave it off some
so i can get sunlight directly on my skin
if you saw my farmers tan you would believe me
i dont ever drink milk but do eat cheese twice a day
so
i will add 25-oh vit d3 at a dose of 500-1000 units a day

my thyroid levels and testosterone levels are normal

i will repeat these levels on the above tests in 6 months to
ensure they are back to normal
and will probably have to stay on the supplements long term

now back to reverse a trol

resveratrol is a chemical that is found in grapes peanuts blueberries
and dark chocolate
it is thought to reverse the srti ratio in the brain which means it
increases the production of an anti aging enzyme

a 12 month study done at multiple sites in the us will be published
this year
patients were given high doses of reverse a trol (sic) and levels
of the bad stuff beta amyloid and tau protein were measured
as well as neuropych tests were done
anecdotally theres that word again some people reported an
improvement in their memory during the course of the study

for me this supplement may be important as people like
me who have the apoe4 gene have a reversal of the srti ratio
which means we dont make enough anti aging enzyme
so
by taking the reverse a trol (sic) the ratio will be increased
and the disease process may slow down

so
heres another supplement ill add to my regimen today

resversitol starting at 500 mg then ill probably max it out
at 2000 mg if i tolerate it ok
i will adjust the dose some when the study results are published

so now im all ready for my regimen of
16 supplements

godspeed
