In this video, we’re going to look at some of the signs and causes of dementia and things you can do to combat dementia.
The first sign of dementia can occur as early as ten years before you have any cognitive changes. It takes many years for dementia to develop, and sensory changes that involve the loss of smell and vision often occur well before any other symptoms.
Here are 10 of the most common early signs of dementia:
1. Sensory problems (loss of smell)
2. Sensory problems (vision)
3. Sleeping problems
4. Agitation/Low tolerance to stress
5. Restlessness
6. Aggression
7. Memory issues
8. Emotional drop (depression, anxiety, lack of emotion)
9. Incontinence
10. Constipation
Memory issues can show up as an inability to recognize the time on a clock, mixing up words, lagging before answering questions, loss of spatial recognition, and lack of focus or concentration.
Chronic inflammation and insulin resistance are often seen in people who have dementia. Insulin resistance deprives the nerve cells of fuel, which is why Alzheimer's is commonly referred to as type 3 diabetes.
Chronic inflammation can be caused by poor diet and consuming refined sugars, refined starches, and refined oils. Head trauma, heavy metals, infection, and high blood pressure can also contribute to dementia.
So, what can you do? Here are 11 ways to effectively combat dementia:
1. Exercise
2. Have good sleep habits
3. Get on the Healthy Keto Diet
4. Do intermittent fasting and periodic prolonged fasting
5. Increase omega-3 fatty acids
6. Increase intake of B vitamins
7. Increase vitamin D
8. Try using a sauna
9. Take resveratrol and NAD
10. Consume probiotics
11. Try cold therapy

It never fails! I was just thinking about smell changing, watering eyes, yawning, anger, etc, as probable caused by opiate/opium, junk food, and other drug withdrawal symptoms being similar or mimicking serious health conditions! WOW! 🎉 Thank you for addressing the cause beyond symptoms, Dr. Berg! 🙌
When I had opiate withdrawals they were way worse than smell and yawning 😂😂😂😂
🤔Maybe we should treat Alzheimer’s with opiates.
We are going through this in real time right now with my father in law. Poor man also has diabetes, cancer and just lost sight in his eye from an eye injection. He asks the same question 30 times. Had no idea why he was at the hospital 3 days ago even though he lost sight in his eye. The kindest man. I feel terrible for his wife. 😢 they have been married 55 years.
🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
PRAYING FOR HIM IN JESUS PRECIOUS NAME!!
REMEMBER BY HIS STRIPS WE ARE HEALED❤ HAVE FAITH AND BELIEVE IT SHALL BE DONE ✅ IN JESUS MAME ❤
Plz look into his diet , add blueberries,Mediterranean diet, carnivore diet, ketogenic diet, Also get him a rebounder for exercise , it’s a small Trampoline it’s great 10 minutes on this is like 40 min walk, God Bless
Also, consider intracellular glutathione therapy. The glutathione MUST be manufactured INSIDE the call. There is very solid science supporting this. Don’t discount an Activated B-complex. He may need some methylation support as well as additional oxygen to the brain that can be supported by the B-complex, as well.
Yes I’m curious what his diet is as well. Sugar and excess carbs seem to be a common thread in all these diseases. I wish you, your family and dad the very best.
Dr. Berg I really appreciate you sharing this video about dementia! Valuable information! I lost my Dear sister in 2020 due to complications of dementia.
🙏❤️
I am hyper sensitive to smells. Weird. My mother just passed away in December and she had to dementia for the last 3 years of her life. It was very difficult to deal with, and I hope I never developed this and burden my family.
When I got my genetics tested it said there was very little chance of dementia but I always worried that things I was doing in my lifestyle would potentially bring it on. Thank you for this video. Just started taking cod liver oil and B1 and B complex because of you Doc. 💕
Also said I have long telormeres (good idea for a video 😉 )
This is insightful information, Dr. Berg. Thank you for providing relevant educational content concerning our health 🙏🏻
Thanks for the caution warning Dr. Berg 🙏.
Especially concerning the food processed in over and over reheated seed oil, it actually can be carcinogene too as you might know. I can taste it’s kind of old oil then, the frying process has gone wrong, so the food appears to be less safe.
Next time I’ll check better😌. Or should the authorities be doing that? Perhaps things of this topic are different in the US, as for health / food regulations are for sure different over here in Europa, in general that is.
No problem! Stay safe and healthy!
I think most of these symptons can also occur during an very unhealthy phase, like i do get most symptoms when getting really deep into sugar addiction. But they go away when eating healthy for some time
yeah or if you have sinus problems, they have the same onsets i find.. and i have sinus problems in winter because of the dry air and i lose my sense of smell and taste because of the swelling thats going on, and the sinus headaches.. oof….
Yep, same from mold.
Thank you Dr. Berg; my husband has high blood pressure and suffers all those symptoms you mentioned. Hopefully it won’t get worse.
It’s probably the drugs he’s taking for the blood pressure problem.
Consider intracellular glutathione therapy (glutathione must be manufactured in the cell); activated vit B-complex; cell tides for the gut; and nitric oxide support. There is very solid science on pubmed on the aforementioned.
Thank you Dr. Berg for continuing to bring us important information for our health. You are much loved and appreciated.
It’s my pleasure! Take care always
I had no sense of smell most of my life. I started paying attention to my immune health in 2020 ( go figure). I have taken zinc, along with other immune strengtheners, and I now have a sense of smell for a few years. I have also read that depression and loneliness in senior citizens can mimic dementia.
My mother has had many chronic health problems for 14 yrs. She is now disabled and in a wheelchair and needs someone to get her up and put her on a potty chair, bathe her etc. She has a nurse and physical therapist to come in a couple times of week and they walk her around the kitchen. That is it. My mother never walks or gets up to do anything any other time of the week. My mothers blood pressure was extremely low yesterday and the nurse just laughed and said eat some cheetos. It has a lot of salt in it and that will help raise your blood pressure. She was serious. They talked about all the snacks she could eat that has a lot of salt in it. I just turned around and walked away. And my whole family constantly criticize me for never going to the doctor. I just say I can give myself bad advice for free. I don’t have to pay for it.
Thx for sharing! I would encourage you to get blood work done. You don’t need “their” advice. You have plenty of HPs here on YT whose advice you can follow. I advise my clients to get testing, both blood and geneSNP.
0:07: ⚠️ Early signs of dementia are often subtle and can be mistaken for other factors like stress or sleep issues. Correcting and diagnosing others can be detrimental.
2:48: ⚠️ Early signs of dementia include lack of smell, vision changes, sleeping problems, agitation, restlessness, and aggression.
5:53: ⚠️ The connection between the brain and gut, chronic inflammation, and potential causes of inflammation.
8:24: ⚠️ Genetic testing reveals potential dementia risk associated with apoe4 polymorphism and the importance of lifestyle in gene activation.
11:07: 🧠 Key factors for brain health include omega-3 fatty acids, B vitamins, and vitamin D. Sauna treatments and NAD may also reduce dementia risk.

man, ive had these symptoms all my life, especially it has gotten worse recent years, and literally had dementia symptoms…. and im 30 atm. you literally described me. im supplementing everything possible, gotten somewhat better now.
I noticed as folks age, they worry more about being forgetful. They ignore that we all have incidents of forgetfulness throughout our life. I was walking into a room, forgetting what I came there to grab in my 20’s. Don’t fret yourself to death! Not everyone gets dementia. Great video. Very specific and informative.
What a wonderful topic! Thank you so much Doctor Berg. It’s great to know the signs for prevention. ❤
I have most of the signs, but I’ve also been in deep grief after losing my mom a year ago and then my husband 10 months ago following a short but traumatic battle with leukemia. I feel certain that the sleeplessness, agitation, restlessness and emotional drop are due to grief. I was also diagnosed with borderline diabetes about 8 months ago. I’ve been hoping that the hyperglycemia and the memory loss are a result of the grief. So after watching this I realize that they are connected, because to be honest, I hit the sugary treats pretty hard for comfort. I have already been trying to clean up my diet, and exercise more, and am starting to feel better, but the memory problems are still there.
Excellent video! I love that you told us what we can do…and it wasn’t just doom and gloom. Thank you, Dr. Berg! ❤
