Dementia Myth: Most Patients With Dementia Are Curable

Interesting book and I wish I had known these things when my late mum was diagnosed with dementia. I am now aware and recommend this book to anyone concerned about or dealing with dementia. Dr Coleman is a wonderfully engaging author and I have some of his other works.

Excellent, witty, intelligent and honest. He does repeat himself a small bit but I guess the truth needs to be repeated constantly in order to counter the main stream lies.

Like any book by Dr. Vernon Coleman it is full of facts that people would never think of. I love reading the truth and he speaks plenty of it. Be sure to have a red pen or highlighter with you to go under the great points he makes. I have plenty of his books and highly recommend this book and anything else he writes.

Vernon Coleman is at present my favourite doctor, and favourite author, and I am in the process of reading all his books. He tells it like it is as regards the dangers of doctors, medicine, and vaccines, and also warns us of many other dangers. He has a zany, unique sense of humour and often makes me laugh out loud which few others can do. In this book he tells us all about dementia. The default diagnosis for dementia is Alzheimer’s. Coleman tells us that in the UK, for incomprehensible reasons, doctors are paid a bonus by the Government every time they diagnose Alzheimer’s disease. Millions of patients alleged to have incurable Alzheimer’s disease are curable. In the author’s estimation, at least half of the patients diagnosed as having Alzheimer’s are actually suffering from 1) prescription drug confusion, 2) vitamin B12 shortage, or 3) idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus. People who have heen taking benzodiazepine tranquillisers, sleeping tablets or anti-depressants for more than a week or two are quite likely to develop symptoms of confusion and the like which could easily be misdiagnosed as dementia. Up to 10% of the population are deficient in vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 deficiency is an epidemic. It is an established fact that people deficient in vitamin B12 are likely to suffer from a wide range of symptoms, with dementia being one of the most significant ones. Many millions around the world said to be suffering from Alzheimer’s disease are simply vitamin B12 deficient and could be cured with a short course of injections. Most doctors don’t bother to test for vitmin B12 deficiency. If you don’t test for it you won’t ever find it. (Years ago, my own father was quite ill and confined to bed with vitamin B12 deficiency until when on the point of death it was finally diagnosed and he got the necessary injections.) Standard lab figures for vitamin B12 deficiency are far too low. Between 5% and 10% of patients diagnosed as suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or dementia are in fact suffering from the curable disease idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus, which can be fairly easily treated with a simple surgical operation. The medical establishment is so influenced by the drug industry that it pays little attention to idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus, which is thus under-researched, under-diagnosed and under-treated. There are countless millions with this disease that have been diagnosed as suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. Unfortunately, a large number of doctors, including neurologists and psychiatrists, are unfamiliar with the disorder. The principal symptoms of the disease are a “"wide-legged, unsteady gait”, a tendency to fall a lot, incontinence and dementia. The author writes in detail about B-12 deficiency, which his wife Antoinette suffered from until it was finally diagnosed, and about idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus, which his mother died from, because she had been diagnosed too late, and only diagnosed with help from his wife who found the necessary information on the internet. I found this to be an exceedingly valuable and invaluable book containing information which most doctors lack. If you know anyone affected by dementia, please read it.

Författaren anser att vitamin B12 botar demens och nämner inga andra alternativ.

Its a very informative book we all need to read. We are now all aware of the corruption in our health system now after the last 2 years. This again tells us to trust no one and question everything with reference the medical professionals. This is a disease we accepted without question but thanks to Dr Coleman, not anymore. He opened my eyes to a potential way forward. Amazing man simply amazing. The only question I have is who and where do families go to get the tests and true diagnosis of this illness. My mother has just recently had the dementia diagnosis. I have started our journey looking for help. I started with mums doctor. Guess what no help. I want a second a third maybe a fourth opinion. Were do I go, who do I contact? NHS or Private I dont care. We need help now as time is not on mums side. Please share any of your success stories please
