=== Dr. Newport's Alzheimer's Quest (03:43) ===

[00:00:00]  I often get people contacting me and tell me how coconut oil has helped them or family members overcome certain health problems, including neurological problems like Alzheimer's, MS, dementia.
[00:00:12]  And I had the doctor, Mary Newport is her name, contact me, and she told me that she was having success with her Alzheimer's husband, Steve.
[00:00:24]  And Steve started developing Alzheimer's at the age of 53.
[00:00:29]  So he had early onset Alzheimer's.
[00:00:32]  And he had had it for about five years when she contacted me.
[00:00:38]  And so she started putting him on all the Alzheimer's drugs from the very beginning since she was a doctor.
[00:00:44]  But it didn't do any good.
[00:00:45]  And he still digressed.
[00:00:48]  And so she was getting desperate.
[00:00:49]  And so she started looking for new drugs, experimental drugs that haven't been approved yet.
[00:00:54]  And she wanted to enroll him in one of these studies.
[00:00:57]  And so she started studying all of the new drugs that are coming down for treatment of Alzheimer's.
[00:01:04]  And in her research, she found one particular drug that showed great promise.
[00:01:09]  This drug in preliminary studies showed that after taking the drug, it actually improved the memory of patients.
[00:01:18]  This has never happened before.
[00:01:20]  There is no drug on the market that can actually improve on Alzheimer's.
[00:01:25]  The very best you can hope to do is to slow down the degeneration.
[00:01:30]  Nothing can stop it and nothing can reverse it.
[00:01:33]  But this drug actually showed improvement.
[00:01:36]  And so she was really excited to enroll him.
[00:01:40]  And so she did.
[00:01:40]  She tried to put him in the study, but he had to take a test called the MMSE test, mini-mental state exam test, which is a test that determines your degree of dementia.
[00:01:52]  And there's 30 questions on it.
[00:01:54]  They had him take this test before he could enroll.
[00:01:57]  And so he took the test and he scored a 12, which was almost in the severe stage.
[00:02:02]  It was so bad that he was rejected from the study.
[00:02:06]  He was considered too far gone, hopeless.
[00:02:09]  And so they sent him home.
[00:02:11]  But Dr. Newport, she had done her homework.
[00:02:14]  And in her research, she happened to come across the patent application for this particular drug.
[00:02:21]  And so she had studied it, and she knew the preliminary research.
[00:02:25]  She knew the science behind why it is believed to work.
[00:02:30]  And interestingly enough, in this patent application, also included the basic formula.
[00:02:34]  And so she knew what was in it.
[00:02:36]  And it contained one active ingredient.
[00:02:40]  And that ingredient was medium-chain fatty acids derived from coconut oil, the basic fats that are in coconut oil.
[00:02:48]  And since she knew that and was rejected from the study, she thought, well, how about if we just try using coconut oil?
[00:02:55]  So she went to her health food store, bought a jar of virgin coconut oil, brought it home.
[00:02:59]  She calculated how much coconut oil she'd have to give him to equal the amount of the medium chain fatty acids they were using in the study.
[00:03:07]  And it came to two and a half tablespoons.
[00:03:11]  And so she started putting two and a half tablespoons in his oatmeal in the morning.
[00:03:16]  And this is actually two weeks after he was rejected from the study.
[00:03:20]  And then that afternoon, they had another appointment with a neurologist.
[00:03:25]  And so after taking it for the first time, he went to that study.

=== Phenomenal Improvements (00:47) ===

[00:03:29]  And this neurologist had him retake the MMSE test.
[00:03:33]  This time, he scored an 18.
[00:03:36]  He scored 12 two weeks before.
[00:03:40]  Now, this is phenomenal because this doesn't happen.
[00:03:44]  Alzheimer's patients don't spontaneously get better, jump from a 12 to an 18.
[00:03:50]  They always digress, get worse.
[00:03:53]  This was phenomenal.
[00:03:54]  The doctor had never seen anything like this.
[00:03:56]  And so Dr. Newport knew they had stumbled upon something phenomenal.
[00:04:00]  And since that time, they started continually giving him, Steve, this coconut oil every day.
[00:04:07]  And over the next year, he had phenomenal improvements.
[00:04:11]  Dr. Mary prayed, too.
[00:04:13]  Yes.
[00:04:14]  And I read in the book.
[00:04:15]  I'm sorry, Joseph.
