CRP less than 1.0; A/G greater than 1.8

The ninth intervention to reverse mild Alzheimer's in the Bredesen Protocol is:

Goal: CRP <1.0 ng/L; A/G ≧1.8 (earlier version of the protocol was > 1.5)

Approach: Anti-inflammatory diet; curcumin; DHA/EPA; optimize hygiene

Rationale: Critical role of inflammation in AD

Your hs-CRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein) should be less than 1.0 ng/L. Your A/G (albumin to globulin) ratio should be 1.8 or higher, ideally. These are both used as markers of inflammation.

Optimize diet

Curcumin

DHA/EPA

Optimize hygiene with regular baths or showers, cleaning under nails, regular tooth-brushing with an electric toothbrush, routine flossing; some like to clean sinuses, as well.
