    This has become one of my most favorite channels on all of the internet. You give out such great wisdom and information to the general public. It's great having someone like you looking out for people like us.
  • Incredible discussion. Dr Campbell, letting the guest speak without interruption is a wonderful trait of your's. So many hosts interrupt their guests. Thank you for your efforts .
  • My mom died of Alzheimers at the age of 76 after 2 decades of decline. I have long held a suspicion that she was killed by a Dairy Queen addiction. This video tends to confirm that. For those outside the US, DQ is soft-serve ice cream containing very little dairy but quite a lot of sugar as well as poly- and diglycerides and various modern chemicals. In my view, it's a black hole that swallows up any real nutrition you may have taken in.

    You cannot talk about preventing dementia and ignore the rise in statin use and the way that statins work
  • @rebeccar1036
    All political candidates should be required to take the cognitive function test…

    Dr John Campbell you are an absolute champion of a man.....thank you so much for all you do for humanity 🙏❤
  • @liraco_mx
    So make sure you get: Omega 3 DHA, Omega 6, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, B12. 👌 Great talk, by the way

    A care home in the USA put the residents on a Carnivore and Keto diet and saw huge positive results 😊

    Aluminium in the air (deliberate) doesn't help and those with working eyes and brains will have a clue what I mean.
  • @kathyharris9802
    Fascinating interview. As a 74 year old American woman, I am deeply concerned regarding dementia. This has been most helpful. Thank you Dr Campbell!

    My grandad and his 4 brothers and sister all lived until 90 plus, one still alive at 102. They all grew up in a famous fishing port in UK and ate Fresh artic Cod and Haddock 2/3 days a week(white fish). Not one of them got Dementa, heart desease snd only one got Cancer in his 80s. They were all physically active all their life, also ate lots of fresh food(Veg snd Salads) and i now i know why and how they lived so well without desease. Good sleep, diet and excercise is the key.. never realised about the fish.. thank you
  • Patricks books helped me recover from a chronic illness many years ago, he really knows his stuff.
  • @volkerschad6143
    Great news! Simple and effective measures we can take to protect our brains against alzheimer's, dementia and strengthen our souls against depression. Absolute genius! Thank you both for this valuable gift! May God bless you and your extremely valuable work.❤

    Definitely the best information I have ever gotten concerning dementia. My mom died at 92 because of it and now my dad at 94 is suffering from it. Contrary to what people may think, it’s a horrible way to leave this earth. So I will take this information & learn from it. Thanks so much.

    Upgrade your Brain! As an old guy, I really appreciate this! I’m starting on these essential nutrients today! God Bless you Sir, please keep up this invaluable humanitarian support for us all! God bless you sir!
  • I've been on a Carnivore diet for 3 yrs. The changes in my brain were unbelievable! All the brain fog disappeared. The mental clarify is incredible...it's so good, that I'm going back to college in the fall. Now that my brain has cleared, it wants more knowledge! and I'm 62...always suffered with ADHD which is now GONE (as well as my arthritis and psoriasis)
  • It is amazing how John manages to keep up the quality. I’m often riveted.
  • My mother and grandmother passed away with Dementia. You have my full attention!!! Huge fan from Australia

    Lovely surprise to see Patrick on here. He was my teacher when I attended his nutrition school many moons ago. I'm glad to see that JC has finally learned that nutrition is valuable.......when I was posting comments about vit d, vit c during 2020-2021 he was still fully focused on allopathic approaches only - and pushing the jab! Glad to see he's come around. Patrick pretty much created the field of Nutritional Therapy in the UK. He created the first nutrition school, has written numerous books, including his famous Nutrition Bible [popular about 20yrs ago!]. He was a pioneer for our profession and has done a lot to help the world. Much respect to him.
