Summary
In this podcast, I'm going to share an incredible potential natural alternative to help slow the signs of dementia.
The drug Lupron works to suppress certain cancers because it suppresses certain sex hormones. New research has also shown that Lupron can decrease dementia symptoms. Lupron is a potent suppressor of luteinizing hormone.
Luteinizing hormone is made by the pituitary gland and signals the body to produce hormones like progesterone and testosterone. As we age, luteinizing hormone increases significantly. Patients with Alzheimer's have higher amounts of luteinizing hormone than people with normal cognitive function.
High levels of luteinizing hormone significantly decrease progesterone. Progesterone is a very powerful neurosteroid, so it supports the development of neurons.
Women have more progesterone, so they often have fewer adverse effects if they experience a traumatic brain injury. Progesterone minimizes inflammation in the brain cells, enhances serotonin, prevents apoptosis, and decreases blood-brain barrier leakage.
After menopause, progesterone significantly decreases in women. For men, this decline can happen around 70 years of age.
Melatonin can suppress luteinizing hormone, which indirectly increases progesterone. Research on mice has shown that melatonin and exercise may help halt dementia symptoms.
DHEA and pregnenolone also work to suppress luteinizing hormone and increase progesterone. DHEA also suppresses cortisol.
To decrease luteinizing hormone with melatonin, you'll need a much larger than average dose. You can also stimulate melatonin by going to bed with the lights turned down, increasing sun exposure, or sitting by a campfire. Around 95% of melatonin can be obtained from the sun's infrared rays.

| 0:00.0 | So I want to share a short story that relates to the topic. |
| 0:03.4 | I live in a farm. |
| 0:05.0 | I have a goat named Bennett. |
| 0:07.0 | No matter what I do, Bennett seems to get through the fence |
| 0:09.7 | and will start eating trees on the other side of the fence. |
| 0:13.0 | And this has been going on for quite some time. |
| 0:15.0 | Okay, I got it figured out. |
| 0:16.3 | I patched the holes. |
| 0:17.4 | There's no way Bennett is getting across the fence. |
| 0:20.6 | Next day I come out, Bennett is across the fence. |
| 0:24.0 | So I started out with this fence, |
| 0:26.0 | then reinforcing with an electric fence, |
| 0:28.0 | putting mesh behind electric fence, |
| 0:30.0 | to eventually building a wooden fence, okay? |
| 0:33.7 | But even this wooden fence reinforced with electrical wires |
| 0:37.7 | didn't hold Bennett in our paddock. |
| 0:41.0 | So then I had a bright idea of reinforcing all of this with chicken wire that was grounded into the earth. |
| 0:48.6 | I finally got it solved. There's no way he's going to get through this fence this time. |
| 0:52.3 | The next day, Bennett is on the other |
| 0:54.6 | side of the fence. Now Bennett is a very cute dwarf goat that looks like a cartoon character, |
| 1:00.8 | so it's hard to get mad at Bennett but I was definitely furious to Bennett and |
| 1:05.0 | so I had one last thing I was going to do before I basically hopeless in the situation. |
